January 2026 is a critical milestone for Dusk. The DuskDS mainnet has been stable for some time, and the recent launch of Hedger Alpha testing has opened up new possibilities for zero-knowledge transactions—ensuring transaction privacy while allowing for audits, which is highly significant for institutional investors.

The real highlight is the upcoming launch of the DuskEVM mainnet. Launching in Q1 is almost certain, and it will be fully compatible with Solidity code. What does this mean? Existing DeFi projects can migrate seamlessly, with zero learning curve, while automatically gaining privacy protection capabilities. For developers, this could be the lowest barrier to entering the privacy application space.

But that’s not all. The NPEX partnership agreement reveals even greater ambitions—hundreds of millions of euros worth of real securities and RWA assets are about to go on-chain. Combined with Chainlink’s real-time data feeds, the entire issuance, trading, and settlement process can operate efficiently within a regulated framework. This is not just hype; it’s a substantial upgrade to financial infrastructure.

From the purity of privacy technology to the feasibility of institutional-grade applications, Dusk has spent six years on this path. The question is no longer "Can privacy be achieved," but "How to make privacy a competitive advantage." Amid the wave of Web3 institutional adoption, this project is becoming that seemingly inconspicuous but crucial bridge.

Six years of sharpening the sword, finally the moment of verification has arrived --- EVM compatibility is truly a killer move; isn’t seamless migration of DeFi projects more appealing? --- Billions of euros in RWA on the chain, this time it’s not just a pie in the sky --- Privacy + auditing + institutional level... Dusk has finally found an exit --- Launching in Q1, betting that Dusk can hold on until that day --- Spring for Solidity developers? Not quite, it still depends on whether the ecosystem can survive --- Six years already, is this time really going to deliver? --- Is the NPEX partnership reliable, or is it just another PR stunt? --- Entering the privacy field with zero learning cost? Sounds too good to be true --- The key is linking to real finance methods, avoiding being hammered by regulators

Six years of sharpening the sword, it all depends on whether Q1 can truly draw the blade Zero-knowledge + institutional-grade applications, this combination is quite something Seamless Solidity migration? Developers are eagerly anticipating it Billions of euros worth of RWA on the chain, this is not a fairy tale, it's happening for real Privacy moat + DeFi ecosystem, the track's imagination has indeed been unlocked EVM compatibility, this is essentially lowering the barrier for traditional DeFi projects Honestly, after six years, we're finally here. Patience is there, but I worry about falling behind later When institutions come, privacy becomes valuable. This logic is sound Chainlink + NPEX + Dusk, this combination is quite promising

Six years of sharpening the sword, this time it's really happening Dusk is no longer just talk; on-chain RWA worth hundreds of millions of euros is the real deal Zero privacy cost migration for DeFi, developers are thrilled Wait, why isn't Hedger Alpha getting popular yet Privacy + auditing is actually a tailor-made combo for institutions, right Is the DuskEVM launch date confirmed? Wait a bit longer or is it time to get on board No hype, no blackening, this truly looks like the infrastructure that finance should have After six years, we're finally seeing privacy is not just a gimmick Solidity compatibility is brilliant; how fast the ecosystem develops depends entirely on this Just a bit worried it might end up being another round of hype... Acceptable privacy with auditing—that's what real privacy is

Six years of sharpening the sword, and finally Dusk is ready to showcase its strength Institution-grade privacy applications are really coming, and this time it's not just a PPT EVM mainnet launching in Q1, seamless Solidity migration... developers are going crazy Hundreds of millions of euros in RWA on the chain, this is true infrastructure No matter how good the privacy is, without use cases, it’s useless. Now, finally, there are use cases Wait, why is no one discussing token economics? The innovation of Hedger Alpha has been seriously underestimated Zero-knowledge proofs + auditing framework, truly solving institutional pain points I bet it will launch in Q1; if I’m wrong, I’ll eat my hat DuskEVM might be the most underestimated mainnet of the year Not taking sides, but the privacy track finally has a king

Wait, six years? Is this wave finally about to take off? My mindset... Finally waited for it, the privacy track is no longer a castle in the air, institutional funds are really coming this time, DuskEVM's compatibility with Solidity is brilliant, zero barrier to entry, straight on board. My faith is about to be ignited... Hundreds of millions of euros on the chain, isn't this the moment we've been waiting for? The bottom range has passed, and the value is returning! Really, from technology to application, only one step away, rebirth might really happen in the next year or two... Stay calm, brothers. Institutional-level demand is right here, the logic that privacy becomes a competitive advantage is perfectly self-consistent. Why am I still a bit anxious [laughing with tears]? Crossing cycles just to wait for projects like this. Those who have seriously done the math know exactly where this position is.

Six years of holding back big moves, this time it really feels like it's coming Privacy + institutional-grade applications, this is the way Web3 should go Q1 on DuskEVM? I'm a bit期待, seamless migration sounds so comfortable Hundreds of millions of euros in RWA on the chain... if this really takes off, it could change a lot of things Achieving both auditability and privacy, institutional investors finally have a reason to enter the market
