What Dusk Network tokenizes
Dusk Network (DUSK) is a real-world-asset (RWA) / tokenization token, currently ranked 308th by market capitalization among the assets we track. Dusk Network sits in the real-world-asset category: it is part of the effort to bring off-chain value — Treasuries, credit, commodities, real estate — onto blockchains as tradeable tokens. The thesis is that traditional assets get cheaper and more programmable on-chain.
Dusk Network (DUSK) is a privacy-focused blockchain platform designed for confidential smart contracts and private transactions. It aims to create a secure environment for businesses to build and manage decentralized applications.
How tokenized assets work
Value here comes from connecting on-chain capital to off-chain returns. The structures are improving fast, but Dusk Network still rides on the credibility of the institutions issuing and custodying the underlying.
DUSK is not mined; it is issued as a token rather than secured by its own mining or staking layer.
Background & fundamentals
Dusk Network operates under a centralized structure, which concentrates protocol decisions in an identifiable issuer or foundation. The project publishes a whitepaper documenting its original design, which is worth reading before sizing any position in DUSK. CoinPaprika classifies the project's development status as "On-going development".
In sector terms it is most often filed under Ethereum (ETH) Token (ERC-20), Smart Contracts, and Layer 1 (L1).
Where Dusk Network sits in the market
With DUSK near $0.0747, Dusk Network carries a market capitalization of $36.27M. Around $2.93M changes hands across exchanges in a typical 24-hour window. That is a turnover of about 8.07% of the float — elevated, often a sign of narrative-driven trading.
Only ~50% of the 1B-DUSK maximum supply is circulating today, so emissions remain a live factor in price discovery. DUSK remains -93% beneath its all-time high of $1.15, the kind of gap that historically takes a full cycle or a fresh catalyst to close. Measured from its all-time low of $0.0294, DUSK is up +154%.

Volatility profile
