DUSK officially launched the DuskEVM mainnet on January 7th, marking another important milestone following the mainnet migration in December. The new network focuses on supporting privacy-preserving smart contract execution and real asset(RWA) related tools, opening up new possibilities for compliant financial applications in Web3.

From community feedback, expectations for this update are quite positive. The main concerns are twofold—first, how the compliance design of the new network itself is, and whether it can truly meet institutional-level requirements; second, whether the real asset tools can operate effectively in real-world scenarios rather than just remaining at the conceptual stage.

The privacy finance sector has always been highly regarded within the industry, especially when targeting institutional investors, where compliance and privacy protection are often hard requirements. DUSK’s mainnet update seems to attempt to satisfy both needs simultaneously. Whether it can truly open up market opportunities depends on the actual application and implementation in the coming future.
