The goal would be to ensure immediate availability on the mainnet now that the first immutable block goes live.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">As part of their <a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/dusk.network\/roadmap\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">roadmap<\/a>, Dusk developers also allowed early stakes to be on-ramped into the Genesis on December 29. On this day, the team deployed the \u201cMainnet Cluster.\u201d However, early deposits were not possible until January 3 last week.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Why the Dusk Mainnet Launch Matters<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">For DUSK <\/p>\n<style>\n    .cwp-coin-chart svg path {\n        stroke: ;\n        stroke-width: ;<\/p>\n<p>    }\n<\/style>\n<p>    <span class=\"cwp-coin-widget-container\" data-id=\"dusk-dusk-network\" id=\"coin_widget_id_677d217dce863\"><\/p>\n<p>        <!-- name of the coin in the text --><br \/>\n        <span class=\"cwp-coin-widget-wrapper\" data-id=\"dusk-dusk-network\"><br \/>\n            <span class=\"cwp-coin-widget-holder \" style=\"background: #e0e0e0; \"><br \/>\n                <span class=\"cwp-coin-name\" data-id=\"dusk-dusk-network\"><br \/>\n                    <span class=\"cwp-coin-icon \"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptify-platform-dev.clickoutmedia.tech\/icons\/dusk-dusk-network.png\" alt=\"dusk-dusk-network icon\" width=\"16px\" height=\"16px\"><\/span><br \/>\n                    <span class=\"cwp-coin-label \"><\/span><br \/>\n                    <span class=\"cwp-coin-symbol hidden\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>                    <span class=\"cwp-coin-trend-holder\"><br \/>\n                        <span class=\"cwp-coin-price hidden\"><\/span><br \/>\n                    <\/span><br \/>\n                    <span class=\"cwp-coin-trend-holder\"><br \/>\n                        <span class=\"cwp-coin-trend \"><\/span><br \/>\n                    <\/span><\/p>\n<p>                <\/span><br \/>\n            <\/span><br \/>\n        <\/span><\/p>\n<p>        <!-- popup with basic info about the coin --><br \/>\n        <span class=\"cwp-coin-popup-wrapper \" data-id=\"dusk-dusk-network\" style=\"\"><br \/>\n            <span class=\"cwp-coin-popup-holder\"><br \/>\n                <span class=\"cwp-coin-name\"><br \/>\n                    <span class=\"cwp-coin-icon\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptify-platform-dev.clickoutmedia.tech\/icons\/dusk-dusk-network.png\" alt=\"dusk-dusk-network icon\"><\/span><br \/>\n                    <span class=\"cwp-coin-popup-name\"><\/span><br \/>\n                    <span class=\"cwp-coin-popup-symbol\"><\/span><br \/>\n                <\/span><br \/>\n                <span class=\"cwp-coin-price\"><br \/>\n                    <span class=\"cwp-coin-price-title\">Price<\/span><br \/>\n                    <span class=\"cwp-coin-price-holder\"><br \/>\n                        <span class=\"cwp-coin-price-value\"><\/span><br \/>\n                        <span class=\"cwp-coin-trend-holder\"><br \/>\n                            <span class=\"cwp-coin-trend\"><\/span><br \/>\n                        <\/span><br \/>\n                    <\/span><br \/>\n                <\/span><br \/>\n                <span class=\"cwp-coin-volume\"><br \/>\n                    <span class=\"cwp-coin-price-holder\"><br \/>\n                        <span class=\"cwp-coin-volume-title\">Trading volume in 24h<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                    <\/span><br \/>\n                    <span class=\"cwp-coin-volume-value\"><\/span><br \/>\n                    <!-- <span class=\"cwp-coin-trend-holder\">\n                        <span class=\"cwp-coin-trend\">?<\/span> \n                    <\/span>                     --><br \/>\n                <\/span><br \/>\n                <span class=\"cwp-coin-chart\"><br \/>\n                    <span class=\"cwp-graph-title\">Last 7d price movement<\/span><br \/>\n                    <span class=\"cwp-graph-container\"><\/span><br \/>\n                <\/span><\/p>\n<p>            <\/span>           <\/p>\n<p>        <\/span><br \/>\n    <\/span><\/p>\n<p> holders, today\u2019s mainnet launch is a technical milestone that ushers what the Dusk development said is a \u201cnew era of financial innovation.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Their mission is simple: bring traditional finance on-chain while maintaining privacy and complying with existing regulations. With today\u2019s mainnet, it is easy to see why Dusk could redefine how financial players and even ordinary investors interact with capital and explore investment opportunities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">As Emanuele Francioni, the CEO and founder of Dusk Network, put it in an <a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/cointelegraph.com\/news\/dusk-ceo-on-regulatory-compliance-and-upcoming-mainnet-launch-ama-recap\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AMA<\/a>, the layer-1 will \u201celiminate inefficiencies that continue to plague traditional finance.\u201d Through cryptography, Dusk will record all records and transactions directly on-chain without the wait time common in traditional setups. So far, Dusk has partnered with NPEX, the Dutch exchange, signaling their intent to play a vital role in onboarding traditional players into the blockchain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Besides lowering costs and complying with existing laws, the team is also innovating. In Q1 2025, Francioni, in an <a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/i\/spaces\/1rmxPokLdPLJN\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">X Spaces<\/a>, revealed plans to launch Lightspeed, a layer-2 solution compatible with Ethereum that settles on the Dusk Mainnet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Additionally, the platform is changing the staking game via hyper staking, which will be available from January 7. The stake contract (which can be customized) is ready for deployment. It will allow anyone to stake directly via the network\u2019s Phoenix 2.0 nodes or via a delegate privately.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Dusk Roadmap Q1 - Post Mainnet\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/B8E5_-imdtw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">How DUSK Crypto is Balancing Privacy and Compliance in Mainnet Launch<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">It will be interesting to see how the privacy-centric protocol evolve in 2025.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Today\u2019s mainnet launch is when regulations across the globe is maturing and particularly tight, especially in Europe.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Fresh laws, including those curbing terrorist financing and money laundering, have become more stringent.
