Tokenizing a real-world asset" sounds abstract. Let's make it concrete. How would, say, a corporate green bond actually get issued on the
@Dusk network? Here’s a simplified walkthrough of the process, highlighting Dusk's unique value.
Step 1: The Issuer & Legal Wrapper
A company (the Issuer) works with a legal partner to create a Security Ownership Token (SOT) that digitally represents the bond, ensuring it complies with all relevant financial laws. This legal groundwork is paramount.
Step 2: Integration & Smart Contract Deployment
Using Dusk's tools, the Issuer (or a licensed third-party) deploys a compliant smart contract. This contract isn't just a token mint; it encodes the bond's terms—interest rate, maturity date, coupon payment schedule—and embeds transfer restrictions (e.g., only to KYC'd wallets in permitted jurisdictions).
Step 3: The Private Offering & Settlement
Interested, verified investors send funds (e.g., via a regulated euro stablecoin from a partner like Quantoz) to the smart contract. In return, they receive the SOTs directly into their Dusk Vault. The transaction is settled on the Dusk ledger in seconds. Crucially, the transaction details are shielded by zero-knowledge proofs; the public sees a verification, but not the amounts or counterparties.
Step 4: Lifecycle Management & Secondary Trading
The smart contract automatically pays coupons to token holders. Investors can later trade these SOTs on a compliant DEX built on Dusk, where every trade automatically checks regulatory permissions. The entire lifecycle—from issuance to maturity—is on-chain, automated, private, and auditable.
This process showcases how DUSK moves beyond theory to a practical engine for capital formation, reducing friction, cost, and settlement risk for all parties involved.
