I used to assume privacy chains and compliant chains were just opposite ends of a spectrum, pick one and accept the cost.
Dusk's answer is to not pick. Moonlight handles transparent, account-based state, the kind regulators can read directly. Phoenix runs alongside it, using Jubjub curve signatures, stealth addresses, and nullifiers to verify balance integrity without exposing sender, receiver, or amount. Same network, two settlement logics, running at once.
What changed my read on this was view keys. Institutions can delegate transaction scanning to a third party without ever handing over spending access. That is auditability without custody risk, which is not something MiCA-style transparency rules usually get offered.
Layer Citadel and Zedger on top, identity verification and asset compliance built into the protocol itself, and the pattern is consistent: compliance is not bolted on afterward, it is structural.
Does embedding compliance at the protocol level actually satisfy regulators, or does it just relocate the trust question to whoever writes the rules?
