The phased rollout of the STOX platform in 2026 positions Dusk Network as a leader in regulated on-chain securities trading. Built on the proven NPEX partnership (€300M+ tokenized securities already live with AFM-licensed compliance), STOX will offer a full trading venue with instant settlement, self-custody, and privacy protection via ZKPs/homomorphic encryption.
Hedger Alpha (live) supports confidential EVM txs for secure trading, while Chainlink CCIP ensures cross-chain accessibility for these assets. This creates a complete stack: issue compliant RWAs, trade them on a licensed platform, and move them cross-chain without regulatory risks.
This isn't another DEX – it's a regulated marketplace for tokenized traditional assets, solving liquidity and compliance in one go.
If STOX delivers, it could redefine how institutions trade securities on-chain.
