Dusk's upcoming economic protocol has mind blowing implications: By paying for their own gas costs, smart contracts can execute automatically when some events are triggered (e.g. price detected). I call those Autocontracts - Smart Contracts 👏 Can 👏 Execute 👏 Autonomously👏

The regulation - does NOT ban privacy in crypto - does NOT cap crypto transfers (it does cap cash transactions to €10,000, but not crypto) - does NOT ban privacy in self-hosted wallets - does NOT ban private txs among wallets

These headlines are misleading click-baits. They twist the truth about the recent EU regulation, making it seem more controversial than it actually is. In reality, the rules simply relate to anti-money laundering steps for licensed entities acting as crypto-to-fiat gateway

This is the *exact* reason why the protocol best suited for RWA has: 1. Privacy 2. Explicit tx acceptance 3. Automated compliance in tx execution At @DuskFoundation we encoded 1 in the core protocol, and encode d2 and 3 in #Zedger standard for tokenized securities (MIfid II)

@coinactuary @adamscochran @Gotchi_chief Dusk was created as a protocol using ZK tech to reconcile permissionless-ness with compliance for regulated assets. Privacy + auditability are necessary for compliance. We just removed the need to trust a broker (we use provable encryption to prove tx auditability to verifiers)

The OEs in crypto are the CASPs engaged in exchange services between crypto and fiat currencies and custodian wallet providers. The emphasis of the doc is on (1) registration of the beneficial owner, (2) accounting practices and (3) due diligence practices for OEs.

1/ I cannot overstate how important the XSC token standard will be for blockchain & finance industries. Unlike ERC-20 or the notoriously incompliant ERC-1400, XSC is specific & compliant for tokenization of securities into security tokens; a massive up-and-coming industry segment

V2.0 of our Confidential Security Contract Standard (XSC) has been released! The XSC has regulatory compliance built-in, enabling it to rival the popularity of the ERC20 standard but for security tokens. Here's to the future of security token issuance:

@luigidemeo @LordBogdanoff @ExcelBaller Dusk's approach is to encode regulations into a ZK-based transaction model with selective disclosure. This way, transaction validation reduces to a mere ZK-proof verification, thus segregating Provisioners from auditors. At the moment we are focusing on Mifid II and complying…

Once again, all roads lead to self-custody and #RegDeFi . Self-custody safeguards users from custodians misusing their funds, while Regulated DeFi provides the framework for crowd-sourced, decentralized investing. The SVB situation, much like FTX, is …

While our keen focus is securitized assets, we are very aware that privacy is a requirement sorely missing in the industry. Therefore, Dusk Network has actively worked to provide existing tokens with a privacy wrapper and bring $DUSK enormous utility to the entire crypto space.

Identity management systems are unnecessary at best, and a global surveillance system at worse. Why should I tell my identity to a provider, if I could instead use a tool to prove I lawfully purchased its service? The tool is zero-knowledge cryptography and is already available

About #TornadoCash . Now more than before it is useful to state that privacy is not and should not be counterposed to compliance! The problem is purely technical, rather than legislative. /1
