DUSK

DUSK is the native token of Dusk, a public, permissionless Layer 1 blockchain designed specifically for regulated financial markets in Europe. The project aims to let securities, bonds, and other real-world financial assets be issued, traded, and settled directly on-chain while remaining compliant with EU regulatory frameworks such as MiFID II, MiCA, and the DLT Pilot Regime. Its intended users are financial institutions, regulated exchanges, and issuers who need a blockchain that fits within existing legal structures rather than working around them.

Dusk uses a Proof of Stake consensus mechanism, meaning validators lock up DUSK tokens to participate in confirming transactions and securing the network. The chain incorporates zero-knowledge cryptography into its smart contract layer, which allows transaction details to remain private while still satisfying compliance checks — a combination the project calls privacy-preserving compliance. DUSK tokens are used within this system for staking, paying for computation, and interacting with the protocol's settlement infrastructure.

The data stored for this asset does not include a measured fee stream, so fee-based metrics such as revenue yield or fee-to-market-cap ratios are not available on this page. What the data does show is that circulating supply stands at approximately 609.7 million tokens out of a maximum of 1 billion, meaning roughly 61.0 percent of the maximum supply is currently circulating (point-in-time). The remaining supply yet to be issued is negligible at about 0.002 percent of max supply, and the ratio of fully diluted value to market cap is effectively 1.0, indicating almost no additional dilution overhang at this time.
