Get to know Dusk 👀

Who we are
We are an #L1 that delivers privacy through #ZKPs, and compliance to tokenize and natively issue #RWAs on-chain.

We provide institution-grade infrastructure, ensuring privacy and compliance in order to bring regulated assets to everyone's wallet.

🏦 We aim to be the new financial market infrastructure (FMI) for the multi-trillion dollar financial industry, and overhaul inefficiencies and barriers to make finance accessible to all.

We are also public and permissionless, so any developer could build on our blockchain for their own RWA project, or for privacy preservation.

What we do
⚒️ We've been researching and developing for 5 years, and have developed cryptographic systems like PlonK, tools like Citadel for private-preserving KYC, and a VM that can deliver privacy within a shared state, 1 block sync up for nodes, privacy-friendly smart contracts, and infinite scalability 💪

Mainnet is scheduled for 20th September, and we have partnered with @npex, a Netherlands-based stock exchange.

Join our Discord or Telegram to stay in the loop!

Mainnet is less than 2 months away, and will feature:
- Third-party smart contracts
- Phoenix 2.0
- Moonlight Shard
- and more

Phoenix and Moonlight in particular are key for making sure that Dusk is privacy-friendly, compliant, and adheres to CEX requirements.

Wondering how Dusk will work and fit together? Here's an overview of our architecture!

From the application layer with smart contracts to the cryptographic layer, see how our tech stack fits together!

All of these elements work together to make a compliant, privacy-friendly, and institution-ready blockchain 💪

Dusk is hiring! We're looking for a Security Exchange Integration Engineer, experienced in C# and Angular, to collaborate on a regulated securities exchange project.

Our team was busy last week with in-person meetings and planning.

The closer we get to #mainnet and the more people we speak to, the more we feel the excitement for a compliant privacy-friendly and institutional-grade blockchain for #RWAs 💪

Check out the recording of Dusk CEO (@Autholykos) Emanuele Francioni's keynote speech at @Tokenfuture_io titled "Institutional-Grade Infrastructure for Tokenizing #RWAs"
