🔥 Dusk is not just another blockchain project – it is building a Layer 1 network designed for regulated finance 🏦. Founded in 2018, @Dusk focuses on privacy, compliance, and institutional adoption 🔐⚖️. One of the most exciting updates is DuskTrade launching in 2026, Dusk’s first real-world asset (RWA) application. Built in collaboration with regulated Dutch exchange NPEX, DuskTrade is designed for compliant trading and investment and aims to bring $300M+ in tokenized securities on-chain 💎. The whitelist opens this January, showing real progress.
Another major milestone is the DuskEVM mainnet launching in the 2nd week of January 🚀. DuskEVM is a modular EVM layer that allows developers and institutions to deploy standard Solidity smart contracts while settling on Dusk’s Layer 1. This removes friction and unlocks compliant DeFi and RWA applications 🌐.
On top of this, Dusk introduced Hedger, enabling privacy-preserving yet auditable EVM transactions using zero-knowledge proofs and homomorphic encryption 🛡️. This is perfect for regulated financial use cases. $DUSK powers governance, fees, and network security. This project has real adoption and long-term vision. #dusk
