If the blockchain wants to enter mainstream finance, it cannot avoid two hurdles—privacy protection required by financial institutions and compliance review. Dusk, this public chain, exists to solve both problems together.

Everyone knows the flaws of traditional public chains: all transaction data is fully transparent. For institutions like banks and brokerages, this means exposing business secrets and customer information on the chain, which is an unacceptable risk. Dusk uses a clever approach with zero-knowledge proof technology—transaction data can be verified for authenticity without revealing the specific content. Amounts, identities, and operational strategies are all encrypted; assets can still transfer as needed, but no one can peek into the details. With this, blockchain can truly be used by financial institutions.

More fundamentally, it’s about compliance. Dusk embeds rules directly into the protocol, allowing real-world assets like securities and bonds to be issued and traded legally on the chain. This is not only a technical breakthrough but also a crucial step in transforming blockchain from a speculative tool into a foundational financial infrastructure.

As RWA has become an industry consensus in recent years, the opportunity for Dusk has become increasingly clear. The combination of privacy and compliance is exactly what the real-world finance sector needs most for on-chain integration.

Zero-knowledge proofs sound good, but I haven't seen many projects that can actually pass the scrutiny of financial institutions. RWA has been popular for so long. How is Dusk's TVL data? Are there any real-world use cases? It's easy to "write rules into the protocol," but the key is how regulators in various countries recognize them. No one can avoid this issue. Technologically, privacy is solved, but what about the trust cost for financial institutions? That's not a technical problem. Privacy + compliance sounds attractive, but in reality, projects that need to balance both are not doing very well.

Zero-knowledge proofs are impressive in theory, but how do they perform in practice? Privacy and compliance working hand in hand is a good approach, but I wonder if institutions will buy into it. Dusk is interesting, but there are quite a few competitors in this space. Will financial institutions really trust this? It still feels a bit uncertain. Compliance is definitely a pain point; I am optimistic about this direction. You're right, privacy + compliance are indeed essential needs. The RWA (Real-World Asset) wave's dividends—how much Dusk can actually benefit from this is the key. Zero-knowledge proofs are powerful, but I'm worried it might just be another hype concept. The last mile of on-chain finance, Dusk is filling this gap. The technical framework looks good; now it depends on how the ecosystem develops.

I'm already tired of the whole zero-knowledge proof thing, but this time Dusk has also incorporated compliance, which is truly substantial.

The little flower of zero-knowledge proof is finally about to bloom in the financial garden.

Zero-knowledge proofs sound promising, but can they really attract old money? To be honest, compliance is always the hardest part; technology is actually simpler. If I could get RWA (Real-World Assets) to work, I would go all in. Dusk might be a bit overhyped; let's wait and see if it can be implemented before making judgments. Privacy + compliance sounds easy to say, but how does it work in practice... It feels like just another hype; many privacy public chains have already failed. Finally, someone has identified the core issue: traditional chains simply can't be used. Would banks really adopt this? I'm a bit skeptical. Zero-knowledge proof technology is good, but ecosystem development is the key. It's just the usual talk; RWA has been hyped for two years and still just concepts. This approach makes sense, but I don't know how long it will last. On-chain integration of real-world finance is inevitable, and privacy and compliance are unavoidable. Writing compliance into the protocol? If a country finds it inconvenient, they could just freeze the computing power. It's interesting, but what about tokenomics? That's the real focus. It looks like Dusk is heading in the right direction, but I'm worried about execution.
