Dusk Network
Dusk Network
Dusk Network is a technology for securities. An open-source and secure blockchain (DLT) infrastructure that businesses use to tokenize financial instruments and automate costly processes. A distributed Financial Market Infrastructure (dFMI) should provide a clear and final settlement of transactions. Moreover, the settlement of transactions should be instant or near-instant (<15s). The popular proof-of-work consensus mechanism used by Bitcoin and Ethereum does not address these requirements. Therefore, we designed a more performant consensus called Succinct Attestation agreement that enables instant settlement of transactions within 15 seconds. Powered by zero-knowledge technology, organizations use the dusk networks to issue tokens that are governed by privacy-preserving smart contracts. Harnessing the power of DLT while respecting confidentiality agreements, and data protection legislation.
