Dusk Network is quietly laying the groundwork for privacy in on-chain finance—privacy that actually works with the rules, not against them. Now that Hedger Alpha is up and running on the DuskEVM testnet, you can make payments that hide your balances and transaction amounts from everyone else, but still keep things clear for regulators when it counts.

Here’s what stands out: you can move funds easily between your public wallet and your private balance, send money privately to other Hedger users, and keep tabs on everything with a dedicated Activity tab. The latest updates (as of February 2026) make things even better—full ERC-20 token support means you aren’t limited to just a few assets, guest mode lets you poke around before signing up, and the UI tweaks make allowlist access smoother.

Hedger runs on Dusk’s zero-knowledge proofs and homomorphic encryption, so it tackles those big DeFi worries—like having all your moves out in the open—head-on. The network processes about 170 native transactions a day, and after seven years of pushing privacy tech forward, Dusk is proving you can have both security and compliance without slowing things down.

If you want to see how real, verifiable privacy feels, try it out on testnet.$DUSK @Dusk #Dusk
