Summary / Definition
As the network grows toward the vision of 1 billion human nodes, it becomes increasingly important to design for long-term participation. Users may pause, return, and re-engage over time.
Burning remains a strong mechanism for maintaining integrity, but as the network grows, it can create unintended friction for those who come back ready to contribute again.
Therefore, we propose: Recovery Burning Mechanism - a feature allowing users to recover previously burned $ITLG by coming back and remaining continuous mining streaks.
Crucially, this mechanism aligns with our deflationary strategy:
•Recovered tokens are restored at 99% of the originally burned amount, as 1% has already been permanently burned into the pool according to the previously approved DAO proposal: “Burning 1% of Returned $ITLG from the Total Supply Each Snapshot.”•Additionally, to honor true consistency, users who have never triggered the burn mechanism will be prioritized by our AI system during the ITL verification process.
This mechanism preserves the original burn logic while providing a fair and transparent opportunity for committed users to recover what was lost through renewed activity.
Motivation
This proposal is driven by two core objectives:
1. Preserve the Burn Mechanism while improving fairness and reasonabilityA permanent penalty without recovery can reduce user motivation over time. This proposal keeps the burn mechanism intact, while introducing a recovery path that is earned, proportional, and based solely on active contribution.2. Incentivize consistency and retentionInstead of penalizing users to the point of discouragement, we want to turn the recovery process into a positive goal. By linking recovery to mining streaks, we encourage daily engagement, strengthening the network's active user base while allowing miners to earn back what is rightfully theirs.
Mechanism
4 consecutive mining sessions generate 1 recovery ticket, capable of restoring the first burn level (1 cycle).Every additional 4 consecutive sessions allows the user to recover the next higher burn tier (e.g., 8 sessions for the 2-cycle tier, 12 sessions for the 4-cycle tier).

Referral restoration
With the Recovery Burning Mechanism, if a user fully recovers all $ITLG that was previously burned to 0, the system will also restore referral balances accordingly:
•Direct referrer recovers 500 $ITLG•Indirect referrer recovers 250 $ITLG
This ensures that referrals are treated fairly and that referrers are not permanently penalized when their referred users return and actively contribute again.
Example
You has the following attributes:
•
Base Reward: 20 $ITLG
•
Base Rate: 1
•
HHP: 6.6
After a period of inactivity, Your rewards were burned according to the existing mechanism:
•2 days inactive: 132 $ITLG burned (1 cycle)•4 days inactive: 264 $ITLG burned (2 cycles)•Continued inactivity fully depleted your $ITLG balance to 0 (32 cycles burned total)
As a result:
•Your direct referrer: −500 $ITLG•Your indirect referrer: −250 $ITLG
You later return and maintain continuous mining activity:
•4 consecutive mines: recover 1 cycle•8 consecutive mines: recover 2 cycles•24 consecutive mines: recover full 32 cycles
After fully recovering all burned $ITLG:
•Your direct referrer: +500 $ITLG•Your indirect referrer: +250 $ITLG
Conclusion
The Recovery Burning Mechanism is a balanced and user-centric evolution of InterLink’s economic design.
It maintains the discipline of the burn system while restoring opportunity, motivation, and fairness for users who re-engage with the network. Past inactivity does not define a user - consistent contribution does.
The result is:
•A fairer and more humane burn mechanism•Stronger incentives for long-term activity•Fair treatment for both users and referrers•A healthier and more sustainable $ITLG economy

The strength of any blockchain lies in its economic model, and $DUSK is designed for long-term sustainability and security. As a native Layer 1 token, $DUSK K serves multiple critical roles within the @dusk_foundation ecosystem. It is used for transaction fees, staking to secure the network, and as the primary currency for purchasing tokenized assets.
What makes #dusk particularly interesting in 2026 is the "Hyperstaking" model, which incentivizes nodes to maintain the network’s privacy-centric infrastructure. As the RWA sector grows, every tokenized bond or share issued on the network increases the utility of $DUSK K. Furthermore, with the ongoing CreatorPad rewards pool of over 3.5 million tokens, the community is more incentivized than ever to support the network's growth. We are witnessing the birth of a new financial rail—one that is permissionless yet compliant, private yet auditable. Joining the @Dusk undation movement today means being part of a protocol that values real-world utility over short-term hype.

In the world of Web3, transparency is often seen as a feature, but for many businesses, it’s a bug. You wouldn't want your competitors seeing every transaction your company makes. This is where @dusk_foundation steps in with its groundbreaking technology. The #dusk network utilizes a unique consensus mechanism called Segregated Byzantine Agreement (SBA), which provides sub-second finality. This means transactions are not only private but also lightning-fast—essential for high-frequency financial trading.
Furthermore, the launch of the DuskEVM has changed the game for developers. It allows them to use the familiar Solidity language to build dApps that inherit native privacy features. Whether it’s private stablecoin transfers or confidential voting systems, $DUSK provides the privacy-preserving layer that the internet has been missing. By participating in the CreatorPad campaign, we are highlighting that privacy is a human right and a business necessity. If you believe that the next wave of blockchain adoption will be driven by utility and security, keep a very close eye on @Dusk_Foundation

The Institutional Revolution – Why $DUSK is the King of RWAs
The landscape of decentralized finance is shifting from speculative assets to Real-World Assets (RWAs), and @Dusk dation is leading this institutional revolution. For years, the main barrier preventing big banks from joining the blockchain was the lack of privacy and regulatory compliance. #dusk has solved this "Institutional Trilemma" by creating a Layer 1 blockchain specifically designed for regulated financial markets.
By integrating Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKP), $DUSK allows institutions to trade tokenized securities and bonds while keeping sensitive trade data confidential. However, unlike "dark coins," Dusk remains compliant with global regulations like MiCA. This balance is exactly why platforms like the Dutch exchange NPEX are choosing to build on this infrastructure. As more trillions of dollars in traditional assets move on-chain, the demand for $DUSK as the native utility and gas token is set to explode. We aren't just looking at a crypto project; we are looking at the future of the global stock market.
