You can complete Dusk’s campaign without ever using DuskEVM.
I went through the campaign myself and completed the 15-minute trading task. The easiest path is simple: create content, participate, trade $DUSK .
But DuskEVM is playing a different game.
It gives builders familiar EVM tooling while connecting them to Dusk’s infrastructure for regulated finance, where privacy and verifiable settlement need to work together.
So the EVM layer isn't really the story.
It’s the familiar front door to a very different backend.
And that creates the tension.
The campaign can attract people who have no reason to build regulated financial applications.
DuskEVM needs some of those people to eventually find that reason.
The real question: does DuskEVM bring builders to #dusk @Dusk or just give builders another EVM to deploy on?
