Decentralized Control
DUSK Network operates on a decentralized network of computers (nodes) worldwide, free from control by banks or governments. These nodes collaborate to validate transactions, ensuring system transparency and attack resistance, granting users greater autonomy and enhancing network resilience.
Blockchain Core
DUSK Network's blockchain is a public, immutable digital ledger recording every transaction. Transactions are grouped into blocks and linked through cryptographic hashes, forming a secure chain. Anyone can view the records, establishing trust without intermediaries.
DUSK Network employs unique technologies like the Segregated Byzantine Agreement (SBA) consensus mechanism and Secure Tunnel Switching (STS) to enhance performance and privacy.
Ensuring Fairness
DUSK Network uses the Segregated Byzantine Agreement (SBA) consensus mechanism to validate transactions and prevent fraudulent activities like double-spending. Participants maintain network security through running nodes and are rewarded with DUSK tokens
Its innovations include a privacy-oriented consensus mechanism and fast, secure streaming capabilities.
Secure Transactions
DUSK Network uses public-private key cryptography to protect transactions:
Private keys (like secret passwords) are used to sign transactions
Public keys (like account numbers) are used to verify ownership.Founded in 2018, Dusk is a layer 1 blockchain designed for regulated and privacy-focused financial infrastructure. Through its modular architecture, Dusk provides the foundation for institutional-grade financial applications, compliant DeFi, and tokenized real-world assets, with privacy and auditability built in by design.
