Dusk Foundation has been in an interesting position from the very beginning. It does not pursue conventional optimizations like "faster public chains" or "lower transaction fees," but instead raises a sharper question: if finance moves entirely onto the blockchain, is humanity ready to face a completely transparent world?

This is rarely discussed frankly in today's crypto market. Transparency is packaged as justice, openness is equated with security, and traceability is regarded as the cornerstone of trust. It sounds ideal, but reality doesn't buy it.

Imagine no one live-streams company accounts to the entire internet, no one posts salary structures on social media, no one leaves business contracts lying around in public squares for strangers to see. Yet once on-chain, the default logic of mainstream public chains flips — everything becomes public.

Dusk's resistance begins here.

It doesn't pursue "extreme anonymity," but a more realistic balance: something that can be verified but cannot be窥探. This approach is mature — neither idealistic nor radical, just aiming to make the on-chain world "livable" like real society.

The challenge lies here: the order of the real world is not built by technology, but accumulated through power, law, and historical compromise. Dusk uses mathematics, cryptography, and consensus to address a fundamentally social structural problem. This alone is extremely difficult.
