$DUSK

In the current context of tightening regulation in the blockchain industry and the increasing prominence of privacy and compliance needs, there is a project that has been anchored in the regulated + privacy-first financial infrastructure track since its establishment in 2018. It is the Layer 1 public chain - Dusk, created by @Dusk . Today, $DUSK is becoming a key bridge connecting traditional finance and the crypto world through a series of significant actions.
$DUSK 's core competitiveness lies in its modular architecture, deeply integrating privacy and auditability from the ground up, providing a solid foundation for institutional-level financial applications, compliant DeFi, and the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA). Recent major moves by the project have shown the market its implementation potential: first, the DuskEVM mainnet officially launched in the second week of January. As a fully EVM-compatible application layer, it allows developers and institutions to directly deploy standard Solidity smart contracts while completing settlements on Dusk Layer 1. This design completely eliminates the migration friction of Ethereum ecosystem projects, allowing developers to leverage Dusk's compliance features to create DeFi and RWA applications that meet regulatory requirements without learning a new tech stack.
