Founded in 2018, Dusk is a next-generation Layer-1 blockchain specifically designed to enable regulated and privacy-focused financial infrastructure. As global financial systems increasingly move on-chain, Dusk aims to bridge the gap between strict regulatory requirements and the need for confidentiality, scalability, and security in digital finance. At its core, Dusk addresses one of the most critical challenges facing blockchain adoption in traditional finance: how to comply with regulations without sacrificing user privacy. Unlike public blockchains that expose transaction details, Dusk integrates advanced cryptographic techniques that allow sensitive financial data to remain private while still being auditable by authorized regulators. #dusk $DUSK
