Dusk’s first full-scale real-world asset (RWA) application, DuskTrade, is launching in 2026 in collaboration with NPEX, a regulated Dutch exchange holding MTF, Broker, and ECSP licenses.
DuskTrade is designed as a fully compliant trading and investment platform, purpose-built for tokenized securities. From day one, the platform brings €300M+ in tokenized assets on-chain, demonstrating that regulated financial instruments can operate efficiently on blockchain infrastructure—without sacrificing compliance.
This marks a major milestone not just for Dusk, but for the broader RWA sector, proving that on-chain finance can meet real-world regulatory standards at scale.
⚙️ DuskEVM Mainnet: EVM Compatibility Meets Layer 1 Compliance
Launching in the second week of January, DuskEVM introduces an EVM-compatible application layer that settles directly on Dusk’s Layer 1.
What does this mean for developers and institutions?
✅ Deploy standard Solidity smart contracts
✅ Seamless integration with existing Ethereum tooling
✅ Reduced friction for enterprise and institutional adoption
✅ Native settlement on a compliance-focused Layer 1
By combining EVM familiarity with Dusk’s regulated-first architecture, DuskEVM unlocks a new generation of compliant DeFi and RWA applications—without forcing builders to reinvent their tech stack.
🔐 Compliant Privacy on EVM with Hedger
Privacy is essential in finance—but it must be auditable. Dusk addresses this challenge with Hedger, its privacy framework for EVM-based applications.
Hedger enables:
Privacy-preserving transactions
Regulatory auditability
Zero-knowledge proofs and homomorphic encryption
Designed specifically for regulated financial use cases
This approach allows institutions to protect sensitive data while still meeting compliance and reporting requirements—solving one of the biggest blockers to on-chain financial adoption.
🌍 Why This Matters
Together, DuskTrade, DuskEVM, and Hedger form a cohesive ecosystem designed for the future of finance:
Tokenized securities with real regulatory backing
EVM compatibility for rapid developer adoption
Privacy that works with regulation, not against it
As RWAs, compliant DeFi, and institutional blockchain adoption accelerate, Dusk is building the infrastructure that makes it all possible.
