Central to Dusk’s privacy is the use of zero-knowledge cryptography, allowing proof of computation or verification of a condition without exposing sensitive details like transaction amounts, identities, or balances. This is foundational to keeping data confidential while retaining interoperability with regulatory frameworks
For example:
Users can transact confidentially.
Smart contracts can process confidential conditions.
Regulators can be granted selective visibility — but only when authorized.
This preserves confidentiality for institutions and individuals without compromising auditability when legally required.
Compliance Built In — Not Bolted On
Instead of adding compliance as an afterthought, Dusk integrates regulatory primitives directly into the blockchain:
Identity & Permissioning
#Dusk provides on-chain identity verification tools that differentiate between public and restricted flows. This makes KYC/AML checks enforceable at the protocol level rather than external systems.
