#dusk $DUSK

$DUSK is a Layer 1 blockchain protocol capable of powering privacy-preserving smart contracts that satisfy business compliance criteria. The network is secured by Succinct Attestation (SA), a novel and fast Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus protocol with settlement finality guarantees, an important requirement for financial use cases. This opens up new opportunities for communities and organizations who are looking to embrace blockchain for their business and use it to address the inefficiencies of traditional finance.
