#dusk $DUSK Tokenomics 2026—Staking, Scarcity, and the ZK-Flywheel

​With the price recently surging over 117% in a single day, the community is laser-focused on the new 2026 tokenomics. The integration of Chainlink CCIP has turned into a cross-chain asset, but the real value driver is the native staking. Current APY levels are hovering around 12%, attracting significant TVL as holders lock up supply to secure the network's unique Segregated Byzantine Agreement (SBA) consensus.

​What’s trending now is the "Value Flywheel" created by the DuskDS (Data & Settlement) layer. As institutional volume from platforms like DuskTrade increases, the demand for transaction fees and smart contract deployment creates a sustainable buy-pressure loop. Unlike inflationary "DeFi" tokens of the past, $DUSK utility is tied directly to regulated financial volume. As we look toward Q2 2026, the potential for $DUSK to reach the $1.00 milestone is no longer a meme—it's a projection based on real-world adoption and the scarcity of a fully unlocked, utility-heavy supply. #Dusk @Dusk
