@MidnightNetwork uses zero-knowledge proofs, also known as ZK proofs, because this is the most practical way to protect user privacy while maintaining safety and legal compliance on the blockchain. Most blockchains today make everything public: who sends money to whom, how much, when - anyone can check. This makes it easy to detect fraud, but it also exposes personal or sensitive business information. Conversely, if everything is completely opaque, it becomes difficult to control money laundering or meet regulations such as KYC, tax reporting. ZK proofs allow you to prove something is true without revealing the details. For example, you can prove you have enough money for a transaction without showing anyone your wallet balance, or prove you have verified your identity without disclosing your name or documents. As a result, transactions on Midnight are shielded: the blockchain records that a transaction has occurred, but no one knows the specific content except for the parties involved. If necessary, you can still selectively share information with authorities without having to disclose all data. Midnight calls this reasonable privacy - not absolutely secret, nor completely public, but you decide what to share and with whom. This approach helps the network protect individual users while also being suitable for large enterprises that need to comply with regulations, maintain stable fees, and be user-friendly in practice.
In @MidnightNetwork , the token $DUST was created to be used as a fee when applications operate on the network. Simply put, when a transaction is made or when a smart contract runs on Midnight, the system needs a type of “fuel” to process that work. $DUST is the token used for this purpose. Separating $DUST into its own token helps the system operate more clearly and flexibly. The main token of the network, $NIGHT , has a different role, such as participating in the ecosystem or activities related to the network. Meanwhile, $DUST focuses solely on paying fees for technical activities on the network.
