I recently took a deep dive into the DuskNetwork project and found that its rhythm in the RWA track is quite solid. As a privacy-focused L1 blockchain, it primarily targets compliant issuance, trading, and settlement of real-world assets. This positioning directly aligns with the EU's MiCA and MiFID II regulatory frameworks.

Several collaborations within the ecosystem are genuinely meaningful rather than just riding the hype—NPEX is bringing stock exchanges on-chain, backed by real licenses, capable of unlocking asset potential worth hundreds of billions of euros; Quantoz's EURQ stablecoin is issued in compliance with MiCA standards, which is a step toward gradually bringing DeFi from virtual to real-world applications. Chainlink's cross-chain technology and data access also enhance the overall ecosystem's security. Institutions like $DUSK Vault offering custodial solutions enable large funds to confidently put real capital into the ecosystem.

On the technical front, progress is ongoing. The ecosystem fund has invested several million dollars to support developers. After the DuskEVM upgrade, all EVM tools are fully compatible, motivating more dApps to build within the ecosystem. The tokenomics are also well-targeted: a total supply of 500 million tokens, staking mechanisms to ensure network security, a portion of transaction fees burned, and a long-term deflationary outlook.

In terms of price, at the beginning of the year, it was around $0.05, with a 24-hour trading volume of a few million. While not top-tier, this indicates that market recognition is still developing. Combining the low market cap with real application scenarios, there is short-term potential for doubling. Conservatively, it could reach the $0.1 to $0.2 range by year-end. If the RWA boom continues, reaching above $0.5 is not impossible.

This is not the kind of speculative coin that experiences wild swings, but rather one that is building real value. The dual moat of privacy and compliance is indeed rare in Web3. Market volatility is inevitable, but this logic can stand the test of time. I have already accumulated positions.
