Instant Settlement Sounds Simple Until Real Money Gets Involved
Most traders love the idea of instant settlement.
Institutions are more cautious and for good reason.
That tension is why stands out to me. Traditional clearing houses exist to manage risk, confidentiality, and legal finality. Public blockchains remove intermediaries, but total transparency creates new problems when positions, counterparties, and cash flows shouldn’t be public.
Dusk approaches settlement differently. Privacy isn’t about obscuring activity it’s about controlling disclosure. Transactions can finalize on-chain while sensitive details stay private, yet still verifiable. That’s a critical distinction if blockchains are ever going to compete with traditional clearing systems.
From a market perspective, this explains the quiet tone around $DUSK. Infrastructure tied to settlement evolves slowly. Watching @Dusk _foundation, the focus feels deliberate rather than promotional.
That’s probably why #Dusk keeps coming up in low-volume, high-context discussions.
