Dusk is a Layer-1 blockchain built with privacy and regulatory compliance as core principles — meaning it’s designed to be private but also usable in regulated finance (like institutions issuing securities). �
DOCUMENTATION +1
Why It Exists
Most blockchains show transaction details publicly, which isn’t ideal for real financial institutions. Dusk aims to give: ✔️ Confidential transactions and balances (so you don’t see everything publicly)
✔️ Selective auditability (regulators can verify when needed)
✔️ Support for issuing and trading real-world assets (RWAs) like tokenized bonds or securities — with compliance built-in. �

In short: privacy + compliance = usable for regulated finance. �
