1️⃣ Built for regulated finance
Dusk is a purpose-built Layer 1 blockchain designed for regulated financial markets, not speculation. It supports tokenized stocks, bonds, funds, and other real-world assets (RWAs) that require legal and regulatory clarity.
2️⃣ Privacy with zero-knowledge proofs
Dusk uses zero-knowledge cryptography to keep financial data private while still allowing selective disclosure. This lets institutions meet KYC and AML rules without exposing sensitive information on a public blockchain.
3️⃣ Public and permissionless
Unlike private or enterprise blockchains, Dusk is fully public and permissionless. Anyone can build, transact, or participate in the network while maintaining compliance-ready infrastructure.
4️⃣ Efficient on-chain settlement
Dusk enables atomic settlement, reducing counterparty risk and speeding up transaction finality. This brings traditional market efficiency directly on-chain.
5️⃣ Focused on real adoption
With products like DuskTrade, Dusk targets real-world financial use cases and institutional adoption instead of hype-driven narratives.
