Entering 2026, the privacy track welcomes major progress. After years of development, Dusk Network's mainnet officially launched on January 7. The core appeal of this project lies in how to simultaneously solve two seemingly contradictory requirements: transaction privacy and regulatory compliance.

From a technical perspective, DuskEVM provides Solidity compatibility, reducing developer migration costs. The Phoenix and Moonlight two operational modes combined with zero-knowledge proof technology allow transaction data to be both privacy-protected and compliant with European regulatory frameworks such as MiCA and MiFID II. This is particularly significant for institutional trading scenarios.

What's more interesting is the RWA direction—the wave of real assets on-chain has already begun. Tokenization of traditional financial assets like bonds and securities requires infrastructure that can both ensure privacy and comply with regulations. Dusk has found its positioning here. $DUSK, as the ecosystem's fuel token, is gradually becoming more prominent in its role connecting traditional finance and DeFi. The entire track is worth paying attention to.
