Between late 2025 and early 2026, Dusk Foundation pushed the project through a crucial transition. The DuskDS upgrade, mainnet launch, DuskEVM reveal, and the Chainlink–NPEX–custodian cluster of partnerships turned Dusk from a long‑running research story into a live, MiCA‑aligned platform for tokenized securities and compliant DeFi. That has powered a strong market rotation into DUSK and attracted more serious institutional attention, but it also raises the bar: from here, the project will increasingly be judged on hard metrics like issued volume, venue adoption and sustained liquidity rather than on whitepapers or roadmaps.
