After the Zcash Orchard disclosure affecting $ZEC, Dusk ran a precautionary review.
Orchard uses Halo2 and Dusk uses its own PLONK implementation. We reviewed that proof-system risk class anyway and found no overlap.
We did not identify this class of issue on the Dusk network.
While Zcash’s privacy design just wiped billions because no one could verify whether fake coins were secretly minted for years, the only privacy coin that matters is @DuskFoundation
$DUSK delivers true on-chain privacy through advanced zero-knowledge proofs for confidential transactions and smart contracts. Crucially, it adds selective disclosure private by default, but auditable and compliance-ready when needed. No hidden supply risks. No “trust us” moments. Built from the ground up for regulated RWAs and institutional finance with deterministic settlement and licensed partnerships.
Privacy that actually works in the real world. That’s $DUSK

This is terrible news for any protocol, and I feel for the $ZEC team given how top notch they are.
But given the complexity of what is being built in this industry, bugs like this are also bound to happen. Even if you audit often, even if you hire good firms, cryptography and blockchain infrastructure are unforgiving.
At @DuskFoundation we made a conscious decision to spend a large part of the first half of 2026 on hardening and heavily auditing our own network.
Far from sexy and it does not generate headlines. And sadly enough, no matter how big the network upgrade is, this kind of work is often not perceived as "delivering".
But it is exactly the work you want done before privacy blockchain infrastructure is trusted with large amounts of real value.
More broadly, I think the industry needs to spend less time rolling its own cryptography in isolation, and more time standardizing, reviewing and formally verifying the shared primitives we all end up relying on.
In an ideal world, we formally verify as much as possible up and down the stack.
4/ The Bottom Line: Because Dusk engineered its entire ZK tech stack from the ground up using PLONK and a unique virtual machine architecture, it is completely immune to this specific Zcash codebase vulnerability. Custom-built architecture matters. 🛡️

1/ The $ZEC Bug Explained: Zcash suffered a "soundness" vulnerability in its Orchard pool due to missing mathematical constraints in the halo2_gadgets library, creating a theoretical risk of undetected token inflation.
3/ ZKVM vs. Static Pools: Zcash relies on hard-coded privacy pools. Dusk operates via Piecrust, the world’s first native ZKVM, managing privacy dynamically through isolated smart contracts. This completely changes and isolates the risk surface.
Earlier this month Dusk attended Fintech Meets the Regulators in Amsterdam.
The event brought fintech companies together with the Dutch Ministry of Finance, the Dutch Central Bank (DNB), and the Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets (AFM).
@heindauven heard one theme repeatedly. Compliant use cases need privacy.
The next phase of financial infrastructure needs privacy that regulators, issuers, and markets can trust.
@kevinolearytv Enterprise adoption needs more than just fast rails. Regulated assets need privacy, compliance, issuer controls, reporting, settlement, and corporate actions onchain. That's what Dusk ($DUSK) is. Kevin, we should talk.
To whoever is panic selling $DUSK, Thank you. My $500,000 log-strategy is fully automated and set to buy heavier as you drop it lower. Time is on my side, I’m here until 2030. Selling a tier-1 privacy & RWA protocol now is financial illiteracy. Keep them coming! 📉🚀
Dusk Wallet and Dusk Connect are a major milestone for the $DUSK ecosystem.
What changes now is that users and builders have the core distribution and interaction layers they need.
A familiar browser wallet flow, a standard way for Dusk wallets and dApps to communicate, and an SDK that developers can build against.
That gives builders a much simpler path to create ZK-enabled, privacy-first and compliance-aware financial and RWA dApps on Dusk, while still feeling familiar to the broader Web3 space.
Together with Dusk Forge, the path from idea to working dApp on Dusk is becoming much more accessible.
Big unlock for the Dusk ecosystem.
Dusk Wallet and Dusk Connect SDK are now in beta.
A familiar browser wallet flow for privacy first, compliant finance and RWA dApps on Dusk.
Chrome and Firefox builds are in review.
