What’s been interesting to watch lately is how @Dusk Network is quietly leaning into real financial plumbing instead of chasing short-term hype.

One recent detail that stood out to me is Dusk’s work with regulated European markets, especially through collaborations involving NPEX, a regulated Dutch exchange. The goal isn’t just tokenizing assets for fun it’s enabling equities and bonds to move on-chain while staying compliant with EU regulations. That already puts #dusk in a very different category from most L1s that only talk about RWAs in theory.

Another data point people often miss: roughly 50% of the 1 billion $DUSK supply is already circulating, which means the inflation story is much clearer compared to newer chains that still have heavy unlocks ahead. For long-term infrastructure, that predictability matters.

Compared to public chains like Ethereum, Dusk’s zero-knowledge design feels more practical for institutions that need privacy and auditability.

The obvious risk is speed. Institutions move slowly, and adoption won’t explode overnight. But if regulated DeFi and tokenized capital markets keep expanding, Dusk feels like it’s building for where finance is actually going not where crypto x wants it to be tomorrow.
