Rules created by code can sometimes protect true freedom — this is vividly reflected in blockchain.

Privacy and compliance are supposed to be opposing. But Dusk Network uses technology to break down this dilemma. Its core is the Hedger module, which uses zero-knowledge proofs to allow you to prove transaction validity to the network while hiding all sensitive details. Simply put, it's like showing a shopping receipt with the product name blacked out — proving the purchase is valid without revealing what you bought. Paired with homomorphic encryption, data can be correctly computed even when encrypted. This is the so-called privacy-preserving and verifiable financial infrastructure.

With the technology in place, how does the ecosystem keep up? Dusk officially launched its EVM-compatible mainnet in January 2026. For developers, this is a big advantage — no need to learn a new language, directly build privacy DeFi or RWA tokenization solutions with Solidity, making onboarding much faster.

Talking on paper is meaningless. Real use cases have already emerged: DuskTrade, in partnership with licensed exchange NPEX, aims to tokenize traditional securities worth hundreds of millions of euros on-chain. The waitlist is now open, allowing investors to access previously high-threshold asset classes with privacy protection.

The DUSK token supports the entire ecosystem, used for governance, staking, and payments. Currently, the Creator Pad program (until February 9) is mobilizing the community, rewarding participants for sharing their visions of the future of privacy finance.

The best fiction ultimately aims to reach a more ideal reality. The stage built by Dusk is to let code rules protect your financial autonomy and dignity in the real world.
