Privacy financial infrastructure is indeed a direction worth paying attention to. DUSK has not participated much in the chaotic hype within the circle since 2018; instead, it has focused on technology and compliance—such persistence is truly rare in this market.

As we enter 2026, its actions have noticeably accelerated. In the second week of January, DuskEVM went live on the mainnet, effectively solving the long-standing compatibility issues faced by developers. Previously, building compliant applications required developers to overcome various technical barriers. Now, with DuskEVM, the threshold has been significantly lowered, allowing more application developers to enter the space. The subsequent ecosystem expansion will definitely be different.

Another highlight is DuskTrade—collaborating with the Dutch licensed exchange NPEX, which means real compliance is now guaranteed. Once launched as planned, it will bring tokenized securities worth over €300 million onto the blockchain, while also introducing resources from traditional financial institutions. The reservation process has already begun, representing a real injection of capital and practical scenarios. The synchronized launch of the Hedger beta is also promising; it strikes a balance between privacy protection and audit requirements, encouraging traditional institutions to participate in Web3.

Being able to implement technology, compliance, and applications all at once is what truly supports long-term value.
