This market trend, everyone in the know understands it well. The bulls have been controlling the rhythm tightly during this period, and it’s during times like these that it’s easiest to see who is truly hardcore and who is just riding the hype.

Recently, I noticed a clear change while monitoring the market—funds and attention are gradually shifting towards projects that are "truly useful, currently in use, and capable of attracting users in the future." To get straight to the point, actions speak louder than words. The old approach of relying solely on storytelling is no longer popular.

For example, Dusk is one of the projects I’ve been closely following. What this project does isn’t particularly flashy—sounds even a bit dull—but industry insiders know how critical it is: privacy-focused blockchain infrastructure. It’s not about chasing trends or creating hype in the crypto space, but genuinely addressing the unavoidable pain points in financial applications: ensuring data security, protecting transaction privacy, and doing so within regulatory frameworks. Sounds simple? There are many boastful projects out there, but few can truly deliver and be implemented.

Recently, the market sentiment has improved, and the usage of such infrastructure projects is slowly increasing. Naturally, funds are re-examining these foundational projects. Whether from capital or developers, everyone is asking the same question: which projects can withstand the cycles of bull and bear markets and still thrive after the hype fades? Projects like Dusk are among those that can survive—they don’t rely on market hype, and the more you study them, the more you see their logical consistency.

Ultimately, in the Web3 world, privacy is not an optional feature; it will become a standard sooner or later. Dusk has already positioned itself early in this track, starting preparations from the infrastructure level.
