Developer Ecosystem & EVM Compatibility
@Dusk is evolving into a modular blockchain stack that supports multiple execution environments. Its EVM-compatible layer, DuskEVM, has launched a public testnet where developers can test smart contracts with standard Ethereum tooling and deploy applications that settle on Dusk’s privacy-centric base layer. This modular approach — separating settlement (DuskDS) from application execution (DuskEVM) — is designed to attract a broader range of developers while maintaining the network’s core privacy and compliance principles. Such interoperability with the wider Ethereum ecosystem is a key roadmap step for expanding Dusk’s developer base and building real-world financial applications.
