Settlement Risk Is The Silent Killer In DeFi: Why Finality Trumps Throughput $BTC đš
The DeFi world chases yield, but institutions demand settlement discipline. Forget atomic swaps as the end-all; finality is what holds up in court. If your chain rolls back, youâve reintroduced settlement risk. Thatâs the entire job.
Dusk Foundation is laser-focused on this financial-grade settlement layer, prioritizing compliance and privacy over mere gas fees. They split the stack: DuskDS handles the hard guarantees of consensus and finality, while DuskEVM allows EVM tooling without polluting the core settlement. This separation is pure risk containment.
DvP (Delivery versus Payment) on chain collapses counterparty risk onto settlement guarantees and the compliance perimeter. If transfer restrictions or eligibility gates exist, they must execute flawlessly every time. Institutions cannot scale on exception queues.
Duskâs privacy isn't about hiding everything; itâs controlled visibility with audit hooksâconfidential balances when needed, disclosures when mandated. Predictable settlement timing isn't a bonus; itâs the difference between clean clearing and operational chaos. Dusk is building the regulated foundation beneath the yield chase. Privacy is now a requirement, not a feature, for institutional DeFi adoption. $DUSK
