@Dusk , together with NPEX, have partnered with Quantoz Payments, to bring EURQ to Dusk.
Based in the Netherlands, Quantoz Payments works in the same space as us; bringing regulated finance on-chain. With their infrastructure, Quantoz payments are one step closer to ushering in the mass adoption of Dusk. They couldn’t have found a better partner! EURQ is their digital euro, designed to fully comply with MiCA regulations, and suitable for regulated use cases.
Dusk is one of three blockchains where you are able to access EURQ, and the only one purpose-built for the native issuance of Real World Assets and with compliance built in from the beginning.
EURQ is more than just a stablecoin, it is an Electronic Money Token (EMT), suitable for use as legal tender. This is not just a stablecoin, this is a digital euro.

This partnership opens up many exciting avenues for us, including:
✓ A fully on-chain stock exchange. Quantoz payments are being working with NPEX for some time to build this, and EURQ is a vital piece, allowing investors to not only have access to a stablecoin, but to an actual euro.
✓ Dusk Pay. The integration of Quantoz Payments is a vital piece for Dusk Pay, their on-chain payment systems. Dusk Pay aims to provide fast, cheap, regulatorily compliant on-chain payments, and having a stablecoin that meets these requirements is a necessity. With Quantoz, Dusk Pay gets a lot closer.

• On-chain, regulated finance:
The partnership allows for:
✓ Enhanced Accessibility: Providing a digital euro that facilitates secure and instant transactions for users and enterprises using the Dusk blockchain.
✓ Streamlined Settlements: Simplifying cross-border and B2B transactions with Quantoz Payments’ regulatory-compliant framework, reducing friction for businesses adopting blockchain solutions.
✓ Boosted Liquidity: Enabling new use cases such as tokenized securities, decentralized finance (DeFi), and digital payments, supported by a robust and euro-denominated settlement mechanism.
✓ Regulatory Confidence: With all three parties being compliant with the most stringent regulatory regime in the world, this partnership paves the way for real-world assets and regulated finance to be compliantly brought on-chain.
• Empowering Enterprises with EURQ:
The integration of Quantoz within the Dusk ecosystem opens new opportunities for enterprises to:
✓ Issue tokenized assets with euro-backed stability.
✓ Conduct real-time, low-cost settlements across borders.
✓ Adopt blockchain-powered financial services with confidence in regulatory compliance
• Closing the gap between TradFi and DeFi:
#Dusk partnership with Quantoz Payments helps us to close the gap between on-chain decentralized finance, and off-chain centralized finance, and means Dusk is not confined to the crypto sandbox, but instead has access to the entire economy.
Not just the trillion-dollar assets market, but day-to-day, high-volume, high-transaction retail payments too. With Quantoz, Dusk can enter into industries and spaces that have been largely off-limits to crypto protocols.
Not only are we building a fully on-chain stock exchange with NPEX, bringing 300M EUR of assets on-chain, we are now able to provide payment rails through Quantoz.
This means more transactions and more TVL on Dusk from outside of the crypto space. People will be transacting on Dusk without ever having to use blockchain. Rather, Dusk will be the seamless infrastructure behind the scenes.
Quantoz payments are thrilled with this huge step forward in achieving their goal of spearheading regulated and decentralized finance, streamlining legacy infrastructure, breaking crypto out of its sandbox, and gaining access to all regulated financial activities.

@Dusk is thrilled to announce a key partnership with Cordial Systems, marking a major step toward the realization of a fully blockchain-powered financial ecosystem. This partnership represents a key milestone in Dusk’s vision for an on-chain financial future. The rapid adoption of tokenized assets is reshaping capital markets, unlocking new efficiencies, liquidity, and transparency, and at Dusk we are at the forefront of delivering real solutions for institutions.
• Cordial Systems: Strategic Partners
Cordial Systems has established itself as a trusted innovator in the tokenization sector, collaborating with industry leaders such as Figure Markets and its parent company, Figure.com, which has facilitated the origination of over $20 billion in private credit on-chain.
For our integration with NPEX, Cordial Treasury was the ideal solution, offering a seamless deployment process and fully on-premises infrastructure. Given its status as a regulated financial institution, NPEX prioritizes maintaining direct control over its technology stack, avoiding the risks associated with third-party SaaS custody solutions. Cordial’s expertise in blockchain integration—capable of adding support for new networks within weeks—enabled a smooth connection with Dusk’s approved Layer 1 blockchain.
#Dusk is thrilled to partner with such a trustworthy and impressive partner, and are excited for the opportunities their custodial solution will open up.
• Dusk Institution-Grade Custody: The Backbone of Secure Digital Asset Management

A key element of this initiative is 'Dusk Vault', which provides a secure and compliant custody solution tailored for financial institutions. NPEX is not just an integration partner but also a client, further validating the reliability and security of Dusk’s custody infrastructure.
By leveraging 'Cordial Treasury', a self-hosted wallet technology developed by Cordial Systems, institutions like NPEX can maintain full control over their digital asset custody. This eliminates dependence on third-party SaaS providers, ensuring operational resilience and regulatory compliance.
This strategic move not only enhances security but also accelerates institutional adoption of Dusk’s Layer 1 blockchain, making it a preferred choice for compliant digital asset transactions.
• Why This Partnership is Key to Dusk’s Future Plans?
This collaboration is a cornerstone of Dusk’s broader vision to build a fully decentralized and compliant financial ecosystem. By working with NPEX and Cordial Systems, Dusk is ensuring that traditional financial institutions can truly transition to blockchain-based infrastructure without compromising on security, regulation, or operational efficiency. Not just a few tokenized products here and there that are still managed and issued off-chain, but bringing the entire system onto the Dusk blockchain.
With the expansion of on-chain finance, we will introduce custody solutions for all digital assets, including cryptocurrencies, tokenized securities, and commodities. This will significantly streamline institutional onboarding, making Dusk an integral player in the convergence of blockchain and traditional finance.
• Redefining the Future of Finance:
As the demand for blockchain-based financial solutions grows, partnerships like this will define the next generation of capital markets. Dusk remains at the forefront of innovation, ensuring that institutions can leverage decentralized ledger technology while adhering to the strictest compliance standards.
For institutions looking to embrace the next wave of digital finance, Dusk provides the foundation for secure, scalable, and regulation-ready blockchain solutions.

@Dusk se vyvíjí do třívrstvé modulární architektury, která snižuje náklady a doby integrace, zároveň však zachovává soukromí a regulační výhody, které síť odlišují. Nová architektura umísťuje vrstvu konzense/datové dostupnosti/řešení (DuskDS) pod vrstvu provádění EVM (DuskEVM) a připravovanou soukromou vrstvu (DuskVM).
• Proč tato změna?
✓ Zrychluje nasazování aplikací.
✓ Integrace s peněženkami, mosty, burzami a poskytovateli služeb je rychlejší díky standardním nástrojům Ethereum.

Data pohání všechno; od našich fitness sledovačů až po reklamy, které vidíme online. Ale přemýšleli jste někdy o tom, kdo skutečně toto data ovládá? Většina z nás si nikdy nepoloží otázku, odkud pochází data za našimi zpravodajskými feedy, odpověďmi umělé inteligence a výsledky vyhledávání. Jednoduše jim věříme, předpokládáme, že někde někdo zajišťuje jejich přesnost a neutrality.
Ale skutečnost je taková, že tato data nejsou vždy důvěryhodná nebo ověřená. Jejich původ zůstává skrytý, zejména v případě dat pro trénování umělé inteligence, a nemáme žádnou kontrolu nad tím, jak jsou používána, nebo kdo z nich získává zisk.

@Walrus 🦭/acc is Mysten Labs’ decentralized storage protocol. Mysten Labs is the same team that’s behind the Sui Network. Walrus’ latest partnership is with io.net (IO). This is a decentralized computing network. Together, they offer an option to save and train AI models.
That’s with IO’s Bring Your Own Model (BYOM) platform that it builds on Walrus Protocol.
• Walrus Protocol and io.net Partnership:
The partnership between Walrus Protocol and io.net offers start-ups a unique option. Besides building AI models, they can also train and run them. That happens on IOs Bring Your Own Model (BYOM) platform. IO uses Walrus Protocol to store these custom AI models. All this is decentralized and not centralized, like traditional cloud models.

This has various advantages:
✓ Start-ups or AI devs don’t have to own their own hardware or set up a data center. That’s all done for them and available to them.
✓ Traditional centralized cloud models are more expensive than this decentralized option. A great example is the pay-per-use option. In other words, you only pay for the computing power and storage you actually use. This makes it more affordable for teams with small budgets.
✓ There’s no need to use pre-approved models. Devs can build their custom models.
✓ This decentralized option has less privacy risks. Data ownership is also much more clearly defined. A decentralized option is also censorship resistant. You control your data and model instead of Google or OpenAI.
Another advantage is when potential outages happen. In mid-June, Google experienced such an outage. AWS, Cloudflare, and Firebase were also down. As a result, big parts of the internet were down. However, Walrus Protocol stayed active and didn’t experience any downtime.
IO supplies the CPUs and GPUs. It offers well over 30k GPU, on demand. On the other hand, a big company like Apple struggles to find enough GPUs to scale its AI efforts effectively. But here is IO, offering their GPU, which is 70% cheaper as well.
• Which Models Will Work Well with This Partnership?
This partnership between Walrus Protocol and io.net works best with good quality models. However, they need to be lightweight enough for a full download. To assist you with this, you can use the IO Intelligence platform. This is a free-inference platform. Inference in AI is where the AI model takes new information and makes predictions or decisions with it. It currently offers access to over 30 free and open-source models. This should get you well on your way. Here are three examples, but there are more out there. So, make sure to DYOR (do your own research).
✓ Deepseek. IO Intelligence offers four different Deepseek versions that you can use. These are reasoning models that come with variations.
✓ Qwen. This also comes in various models. Qwen also offers language models.
✓ Llama. There are also various Llama models available.
IO Intelligence also offers Google products, like Gemma, or Microsoft’s phi models. These are mostly lightweight models, so you can fully download them. Take a look and find the model that suits you best.
What all this means for Walrus is that it is now a serious hub for decentralized AI activity.
• What Else is Up with Walrus Protocol ?
So, this partnership with io.net is exciting, but Walrus Protocol has more brewing. One of its biggest achievements is its actual usage by other protocols. Currently, already 145 projects call Walrus their storage home. New projects are finding their way to Walrus all the time. But this also led to Walrus currently being at 26.7% of capacity. Out of 4.16PB (petabyte), 1.11PB is already in use. The picture below shows this usage:

Seal is another project built by Mysten Labs. It is a decentralized secrets management service. In other words, it offers privacy. You can integrate it into Walrus, but also into other storage protocols. Private data for your storage solutions.

We can also add Nautilus to this equation. This is Sui’s framework to build oracles. So, let me explain. With Seal, you can store your data securely and with privacy on Walrus. Nautilus can fetch this data for you. It utilizes Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs). These perform computations off-chain. However, verification is on-chain.
So, as we can see, Walrus Protocol keeps marching on. The new partnership with io.net opens new ways to save and train your own AI models. However, that’s not all. Walrus sees more and more projects joining. Currently, it hosts 145 projects that use 26.7% of its storage capacity.
To make full use of the Sui stack, we can also integrate Seal and Nautilus to Walrus. Respectively a privacy platform and for oracles.
