In token discussions in the crypto world, we are accustomed to analyzing price, monitoring incentives, calculating profits, and studying inflation — this analytical framework has almost become the standard. But if you use this approach directly to analyze Dusk Network, you might often fall into traps. What’s the problem? It’s very clear: Dusk tokens are not designed based on "speculation" or "traffic volume." The core of their design can be summarized in two words — **the system**. More precisely, DUSK resembles more of a "toolkit" in financial infrastructure, rather than a motivational currency designed for marketing. We must clearly understand the true position of Dusk Network. It is not a public chain aiming for a surge in applications, nor is it a story of "we can do everything." Its focus is very clear: providing privacy and settlement capabilities for financial applications on the Layer 1 layer. In such a system, the order of tasks performed by the token is as follows — first ensuring network security, coordinating participants, then as a unified measure of value and a means of execution. Attracting users? That’s a topic for later. Fundamentally, DUSK is used to pay transaction fees, run smart contracts, and perform atomic swaps. It appears no different from other chains. But in Dusk’s architecture, the meaning changes — it essentially equates to "settling execution costs." Think of the logic of the financial system, where settlement, clearing, and contract activation all require costs, and there must be an accepted valuation tool. DUSK plays this role — a measure of value within the network, relying on stable functions, not on rising prices to incentivize trading. Another important point: DUSK as an asset collateral participates in the consensus mechanism. This is not just a fancy design, but the foundation for operating the entire system...#JoinGateTradFitoWinGoldPack #TariffTensionsHitCryptoMarket #GateLaunchpadIMU #PI #BTC
