Has anyone noticed that, without us realizing it, the frequency and value of Alpha's airdrops have both decreased? In the past, there were often two airdrops per day, sometimes even three. Now it's only one per day, and instead of new tokens, they're just using old ones. The value is strictly limited to 30u. Occasionally, a token that sells quickly might go up to a few over 50, but never reaches 100. Back then, the minimum was always over 100. The endless competitions have also dwindled. Yesterday's new H competition only had 2,000 spots. Anyone who's participated in competitions knows that anything below 10,000 is extremely competitive. With only 2,000 spots, it's essentially the same as not being on the list at all.

At the beginning of 2026, the RWA sector is heating up again, with giants like BlackRock and Franklin Templeton making frequent moves, but retail investors keep talking about Ondo, Mantra, and others—what about Dusk Network? Barely anyone mentions it. Bro, I'm a long-time Dusk fan, and today I'll share why I believe Dusk@Dusk is the most underestimated in the RWA space. Let's start with the pain points. RWA has been talked about for years, but why is real-world implementation so slow? Because institutions fear privacy leaks. Putting stocks, bonds, and private funds on the blockchain exposes holding information and transaction details—like showing your underwear to your competitors.

Talking about $DUSK ,
many veteran players still label it as a 'privacy coin,' but hey, let me tell you, Dusk in 2026 is no longer that niche privacy project. It has completely transformed into a privacy Layer1 tailored for regulated financial markets. Why say so? Because over the past couple of years, the moves Dusk has made have directly hit the core concerns of institutions. Let’s first look back at the technical roadmap. Dusk started working on confidential smart contracts back in 2018—unlike Zcash or Monero, which only hide transactions, Dusk aims to make the entire contract logic private while still being compliant and auditable. In December 2025, the DuskDS mainnet underwent a major upgrade, boosting consensus and settlement layer performance, paving the way for DuskEVM. With the EVM mainnet launch in January 2026, the developer ecosystem took off instantly. Now, just go to Dusk’s Discord and check out the new developers—using Hardhat to deploy privacy contracts with one click, the entry barrier is similar to Ethereum, but privacy is built-in from the ground up. That’s a game-changer—enterprises are most afraid of data leaks when going on-chain, and Dusk solves this at the foundational level.

Brothers, it's only early 2026, the market is still shaky, the overall Bitcoin price is hovering above $60k, barely making an impact, but this guy, $DUSK @Dusk , has quietly climbed from $0.05 to $0.068, a gain of nearly 20%, making it hard not to feel excited. I've been a long-time fan since 2023. Back when privacy coin narratives were hot, I accumulated a lot. During the bear market, it dropped to $0.03, and I nearly sold out, but I held on. Now, I finally have the chance to turn things around.
Let me start by explaining what Dusk actually is, and why I believe it's not just an ordinary privacy coin, but rather the real ace in the hole for the RWA sector in 2026. Dusk Network was never designed for retail privacy transactions from the start. Its goal is to enable compliant blockchain integration for institutions. The core technology is native confidential smart contracts, utilizing PLONK zero-knowledge proofs, which can hide transaction details while still allowing regulators to audit whenever needed.

Today I came across the walrus@Walrus 🦭/acc project, wow, I truly think it's super cool! I checked my wallet for $WAL as soon as I woke up this morning, and the current price is around $0.14, much lower than before—but I think this is the perfect time to grab some. Walrus is a decentralized storage protocol built on the Sui blockchain, specifically designed for storing large files like videos, images, and AI datasets. It uses erasure coding to split data into small chunks and distribute them across many nodes—super secure and cost-effective, unlike centralized cloud storage that risks deletion or exorbitant costs. It's developed by Mysten Labs, the team behind Sui, so it's trustworthy! The mainnet launched last year, and in 2026, it's growing rapidly. a16z has invested $140 million, and the foundation is supporting the ecosystem through RFPs. Many projects are already using walrus to store data—like AI agents, NFTs, and media. Imagine future Web3 apps using this to upload large files in seconds, programmable and directly callable on-chain—so convenient! In the afternoon, I bought a small amount of $WAL and staked it to earn rewards. The community is active, and Twitter is updated daily. This isn't a vaporware token—it's real infrastructure being built. I think walrus is the next big thing in the Sui ecosystem. The price is calm now, but I bet it’ll soar alongside Sui, and reaching $1 isn’t a dream! In short, walrus is quiet but hardcore—perfect for long-term holding. Another day full of optimism for walrus!#walrus $WAL

Today I came across the Dusk blockchain project again, wow, it's really unique! The first thing I do every morning is check the Binance app, then go to the $DUSK page and find it's only around $0.06 now—so affordable! But it's a legitimate Layer 1 blockchain, specifically focused on privacy and compliance, perfect for institutions and big companies to do real finance. The official website says their mission is to bring institutional-grade assets into ordinary wallets while maintaining privacy—awesome! I used to think Dusk was just another hype coin, but after checking, I found it was actually founded back in 2018 in the Netherlands—super old project! They use zero-knowledge proofs for private smart contracts, so transactions are compliant and visible, but you can't see the exact amounts or who sent to whom—perfectly solves the biggest privacy concern when bringing traditional finance on-chain. I heard their mainnet just launched on January 7th this year, after six years of development—finally, the long-awaited boss has arrived! Then I saw they're partnering with the official Dutch stock exchange, NPEX, and planning to launch the DuskTrade platform by 2026, enabling on-chain trading of stocks, bonds, money market funds, and more—all compliant with EU MiCA regulations and beyond. Imagine buying stocks without brokers, settling instantly on-chain with privacy protection—this is truly the future! In the afternoon, I checked @DuskFoundation on Twitter.

In 2025, Dusk accomplished three major milestones that elevated it from a 'niche privacy project' to a dark horse in the RWA space: DuskDS L1 upgrade completed (Dec 10, 2025), removing the final barrier for DuskEVM mainnet, with expected availability of familiar EVM tools for building privacy contracts in Q1 2026;
Collaboration with NPEX + Chainlink successfully executed (Nov 2025), bringing real, regulated European securities assets on-chain while maintaining transaction privacy, achieving top-tier compliance;
Listed on Binance US (Oct 2025), enabling U.S. users to participate and significantly boosting liquidity.

The core selling point of Dusk is that it's not just adding a privacy layer on top, but natively integrating compliance, auditability, and privacy from the ground up. This is extremely important for institutions—they need to bring assets on-chain, but absolutely cannot expose holdings, transaction details, or customer information. The DUSK tokenomics are also healthy: total supply of 1 billion, circulating supply around 500 million, used for Gas, staking rewards, and governance, with inflation well-controlled. Currently, the market cap is low, with the price hovering around $0.055, offering a high margin of safety. Looking ahead to 2026: if RWA continues to gain momentum, Dusk is likely to become the flagship for 'compliant privacy RWA chains.' DuskEVM launch + more institutional assets going live could be the strongest consecutive catalysts. In one sentence: RWA is the big trend of 2026, but privacy combined with compliance is what institutions truly care about—and Dusk is perfectly positioned right there.

Dusk Network@Dusk This project has been on my radar since late 2024, and as of January 11, 2026, the price has been fluctuating between $0.055 and $0.06. There's been a slight rebound recently, but overall it's still in a low-range consolidation. To be honest, this isn't a typical meme coin that promises overnight riches. Instead, it's a 'slow-burn' infrastructure project with real potential, particularly in the RWA + privacy space, and it's taking a uniquely different path. Let's first talk about what it's actually doing. Dusk's core strength lies in its dual capability of privacy and compliance. On traditional public blockchains, when it comes to real-world assets like securities, bonds, and funds, institutions fear two things: first, full data transparency that could expose trade secrets; second, regulatory scrutiny leading to heavy fines. Dusk uses zero-knowledge proofs (ZK) to hide transaction details while still allowing regulators to verify compliance at any time—this is exactly what European institutions are looking for. With MiCA regulations now in effect, Europe's compliance requirements are tightening, and Dusk has built these requirements directly into its protocol, eliminating the need for constant manual adjustments. The biggest highlight is its partnership with NPEX, a licensed and regulated exchange based in the Netherlands. NPEX isn't a small platform—it's a legitimate, regulated securities exchange. The official plan is to tokenize €200M–€300M worth of securities on-chain, with the DuskTrade dApp launching in Q1–Q2 2026. This will allow compliant trading of these assets directly on-chain. Imagine traditional stock trading with T+2 settlement, compared to near-instant settlement on-chain, with privacy protection and significantly lower costs—this is a game-changer for institutions in terms of cost reduction and operational efficiency. Chainlink is also involved, providing oracle services and cross-chain data, effectively completing the foundational infrastructure. Technically, 2026 marks a real turning point for Dusk. The DuskDS mainnet upgrade was completed in December last year, finalizing its L1 version with much improved stability. Following that, the DuskEVM mainnet is now live, fully compatible with Solidity. Developers can use familiar tools like Hardhat and Foundry to write smart contracts, which then settle on DuskDS with privacy automatically inherited. Many consider this the real 'killer feature'—because the Ethereum ecosystem is so large, migration costs are low, and institutional teams can jump in immediately without learning an entirely new stack. There's also the Hedger module, which enables auditable ZK transactions, giving regulators peace of mind. Hyperstaking has also launched, offering higher yields than before, attracting more users to lock up their tokens. On price, the current market cap is only a few tens of millions of dollars, with around 500 million in circulation and a total supply of 1 billion. From late 2025 to early 2026, the price rose from around $0.03 to near $0.06, a significant gain—but also saw sharp pullbacks. Some are claiming 'institutional dumping' is driving the sell-off, but I believe this time is different. 2026 is a pivotal year for the RWA space, and the expectation that institutional funding will grow from 45% to 70% is not just hype. Dusk’s positioning is as the 'pipeline' for compliant RWA in Europe—not just a concept, but real, on-chain execution. In the short term, $0.075 is a clear resistance level; breaking it could push the price toward $0.10. However, if the NPEX dApp launch is delayed or Bitcoin crashes, it could retest $0.04 and undergo another washout. In terms of user experience, I set up a small test environment and deployed a confidential contract—gas fees are low, speed is fast, and the key advantage is native privacy, unlike other chains that add privacy as an afterthought. It’s ideal for issuing bonds, securitizing funds, or managing private investments. The downsides? The ecosystem is still early—few dApps, average liquidity, and TVL hasn’t exploded yet. But that’s normal for an institutional-grade project; there’s little speculation before real-world adoption. Overall, Dusk may not be the hottest project in 2026, but it could very well become one of the most stable. With RWA + privacy + MiCA compliance as its three strong cards, if executed well, it’s not unrealistic for $DUSK to see 5x to 10x growth from its current low market cap as hundreds of millions of euros in institutional assets move on-chain over the next few years. Of course, risks remain—mainnet stability, real transaction volume, and regulatory shifts could all derail progress. I’d recommend not going all-in; instead, take a small position and gradually build it over time, staying patient for Q1–Q2 delivery updates. If you're interested in RWA but want to avoid overly speculative privacy chains, Dusk is definitely worth watching closely. Personally, I'm focusing on accumulating at lower levels, waiting for it to prove itself. Brothers, what’s your take? Do you think it’s too slow, or have you already positioned yourself? #Dusk $DUSK
