@Dusk_Foundation does not wait for finality.
It assigns it.
Succinct Attestation is the mechanism. A committee selected through stake-weighted randomness ratifies each block. Once ratified, the settlement is deterministic. Not likely. Not probable. Finished.
The committee rotates.
Validators do not keep permanent seats. The random selection prevents concentration and makes the process resistant to coordination attacks. The security is not just cryptographic. It is structural.
Financial markets operate on certainty.
A bond transfer is either settled or it is not. An ETF redemption either cleared or it did not. Probabilistic finality works for speculative trading. It does not work for regulated settlement.
Dusk built for the second use case.
The privacy layer hides transaction details. The compliance layer controls who can see them. The consensus layer guarantees they do not reverse. Each layer serves a different purpose. Remove any one and the system stops being useful for finance.
I keep returning to this point because it is the least visible part of the architecture and the most essential.
Privacy is a feature. Finality is the foundation.
