The $DUSK network infrastructure directly ties token utility to network fees and staking rewards. DuskDS ensures data availability and settlement, while DuskEVM handles the application layer.
Gas fees are paid in DUSK, contributing to consensus rewards. Market-layer activities, including the issuance and trading of tokenized securities, also generate fees that benefit token holders.
Platform mechanisms and listing policies ensure that a portion of these fees funds network participants or buyback modules. This design creates a direct link between network usage and token value.
Gas fee sponsorship allows institutions to subsidize user transactions without removing the token from circulation, preserving the economic link between holders and the protocol. Overall, the DUSK structure is designed to redistribute value to network participants at every level.
