Regarding privacy public chains, the crypto community often loves to hype concepts like mixers and absolute anonymity. But here’s the question—when the RWA market worth trillions of dollars is in front of us, these features become obstacles rather than advantages.



Simply put, if a fund wants to tokenize 100 million euros in bonds, regulators will ask: "What about terrorist financing? Can it be frozen?" The answer from most privacy coins is refusal. As a result, they are permanently kept out of compliant markets.

Dusk Network’s technical architecture—especially the Zedger model—makes a controversial but necessary choice: introducing the View Key mechanism. Transactions are hidden from the outside (to prevent leakage of business secrets), but regulators holding specific keys can see through.

Sounds uncool? But it’s effective. Those pursuing extreme decentralization might say this is a betrayal. However, in the eyes of institutions, this is the only way to enter under the EU’s MiCA regulations—"programmable privacy" is the critical line between life and death.

Honestly, pure anonymity is just a joke in the face of RWA, reality forces you to compromise. View Key is actually a clever move, it's just a matter of weighing pros and cons. Instead of stubbornly insisting on decentralization, it's better to stay alive and enter the market. Without compliant channels, there is no real institutional funding—that's the current game rule. Programmable privacy is indeed a compromise solution, it has some appeal. Regulators will never allow you to be completely transparent, but they won't turn a blind eye either. Dusk has bet on the right direction, although there are many criticisms. The old cliché of weighing... but indeed, this is the only way out. Sometimes, compromise is not betrayal, but a way to survive longer.

tbh this view key thing is exactly the kind of innovation arbitrage most anons are too ideologically rigid to see coming... regulatory capture wrapped in cryptographic elegance, basically. dusk gets it—privacy theater for institutions, actual compliance infrastructure disguised as network effects. the purists will rage but adoption curves don't lie

The taste of compromise, but that's just how reality is.

To be honest, the idea of absolute anonymity is just a joke in front of institutions. View Key may hurt feelings, but it is indeed the art of compromise. After RWA arrives, pure privacy is a dead end. But with this approach, does Dusk still count as a privacy coin? It feels a bit like boiling a frog in warm water. Compliance ≠ betraying oneself. It all depends on whether you can survive. Instead of worrying about "not being cool," it's better to focus on entering the market first. Money issues will always outweigh ideals; the regulatory hurdle must be crossed. It's easy to say, but crypto users want absolute anonymity, while institutions want the ability to freeze. No one can have it all.

This is reality. Purest dreamers, RWA is the real deal. --- To be honest, the View Key move is indeed clever. Sacrificing some compromise for a better entry ticket, I think it's worth it. --- Absolute anonymity sounds great, but institutions don't buy it at all. Dusk's approach at least didn't kill itself. --- In front of MiCA, everyone is equal. Privacy coins must either be improved or die. --- The crypto world talks about independence every day, but when it comes to real money, they back down. Isn't that pretty normal?

Haha, this is the reality. Privacy coins need to compromise to go mainstream. --- Rather than being purely on-chain, it's better to survive in the RWA market. --- View Key is actually quite clever; regulators can't see through it, which makes it more dangerous. --- Extreme privacy and institutional compliance are inherently at odds; just pick one. --- The crypto world constantly claims absolute anonymity, but when it comes to 100 million euros, everyone gets scared. --- Dusk took the right path; it's stronger than those who claim they'll never compromise and end up failing. --- Programmable privacy sounds awkward, but this is the future. Purists need to wake up. --- Once MiCA is implemented, all privacy coins will have to recalculate; there's no choice. --- Mixers, no matter how powerful, can't freeze 100 million euros. That's the reality, everyone. --- Compromising doesn't mean betrayal; it just means living longer.
