I’ve been looking at Dusk again, and I think the more interesting question isn’t simply whether privacy works.
The real question is what you can actually build with it.
That’s why the recent network development caught my attention. Since mainnet launched, Dusk has continued pushing upgrades around its privacy and execution stack, including PLONK V2, Aegis, Boreas and the Rusk releases.
But infrastructure alone doesn’t prove the thesis.
What I’m more interested in now is XSC and whether confidential financial assets can operate with real rules around ownership, transfers and compliance without exposing everything publicly.
That’s a much harder problem than simply hiding a transaction.
So I’m less interested in staking numbers by themselves.
I’d rather see how many XSC assets are actually issued, how much real settlement happens, how many independent users hold them, and whether activity remains distributed or becomes concentrated among a small group.
If those numbers start moving, that would tell us far more about Dusk than another headline about privacy.
For me, that’s the experiment worth watching.
