[DuskNetwork]

The medium link on this announcement links to https://medium.com/@DuskCommunity , real address should be https://medium.com/@DuskNetwork , you might want to fix that.

Thank you very much, will change that!

An up-tod-ate FAQ at their website would also be nice, so that nobody has to read through the whole wp.

In fact, the white paper should be updated in order to attract even more investors, not all ico have advisors, will the tokens be utility/service tokens?...

Our token will function just as Ethereum does on the Ethereum blockchain and is a utility token.

good, the simpler the better in my opinion. people are used to ethereum and change scares people.

[turkandjaydee]

what about unsold token? are they will burn it?
it helpful to reduce price drop after ICO to

We do not expect to have any unsold tokens.

So the private sale will continue until there are no unsold tokens left ? and there is no exact date about when it will end?

They should make a video. If people here don't understand what DUSK will be it is a very bad sign.

Hello there King of alts we have released a series called "Dusk in a Nutshell" which explains the Dusk network.

Part 1; https://medium.com/dusk-network/dusk-in-a-nutshell-50b6e8a17c00

Part 2; https://medium.com/dusk-network/the-anonymous-network-layer-explained-ccb93fd222ca

Part 3; https://medium.com/dusk-network/sba-in-a-nutshell-67e5ae29489b

Jelle Pol from Dusk Network's Product & Business Dev team was invited to talk about the challenges around privacy in DLT and how Dusk Network is aiming to solve them. Footage from Bitcoin Wednesday, the largest and oldest crypto meet-up in the Netherlands. Thanks to Bitcoin Wednesday and ABN-AMRO for hosting.

This is a more popular and understandable description than whitepaper.
Very useful articles that clarify in general terms the architecture of the network.

on dusk network, all transaction is going to treated as private or end user are allow to choose? Anonymity will be big thing once regulation come in to play. Like the concept of Stealth address, Ring CT signature and anonymous network layer. 

isnt there too much privacy project out there ?  I dont think not many fancy private transaction, if so the other privacy coins would be doing well wunt they ?  example ETC vs ETH

Yes, there are many privacy coins and only a few will be used. Monero is the most well known.

Monero's originating from Bytecoin, and as far as I know it does not have the disadvantages and bugs of its predecessor. However, not the most used coin, right?

Monero is a fork of bytcoin but, now it's way ahead of bcn in terms of usage and use cases. It's best privacy coin out there

Actually, Monero is not private it was used to be.

Something like dusk network has a great chance about that. Because no chain is offering high level of privacy.

Why not, what is changed now?
Monero is a pretty solid project and is widely used in black markets. I don't think that anyone would be able to replace it so easily.

you can't replace it easily. it's got popularity and brand recognition. but you can compete.

in fact it is not easy to replace monero but perhaps be a valid competitor, an alternative this i believe is within reach of this project...

I don't think that DUSK is directly trying to compete with Monero as monero is used just for the payments and DUSK is much more than that.

I agree with you . It is much easier to understand the project.

technology that is badly needed for large-scale data transfer, and I hope Dusk has a very good speed, because this technology has a very high level of risk, and i hope the team can handle it well

[Amelie Poulain]

We do not expect to have any unsold tokens.

So the private sale will continue until there are no unsold tokens left ? and there is no exact date about when it will end?

We can not ignore the fact that now  crypto market is in declining state, it is important for investors to know what will happen to unsold tokens, if this can happens.

Competition will always increase the ease of use for the common man. I think monero still have plenty of issues which can be resolved from other projects.

I've read those now and holy crap! This is going to be huge, but it's going to take some time. Too bad i can't code, but i am going to suggest my ideas to my coder friends, if they would want to use your platform.

[iad_xo]

I am looking at Anonymous network layer information in DUSK, it use garlic routing technology. How it will be different than used in other projects like deep onion? Just wondering...

Indeed, I also think that other projects that solve existing problems can success in the market even if monero is quite big now.

[rjp55]

we need competition in every area. Technology can grow only with the competition to become better. so having an opponent for monero like dusk will result for the good of customers.

Monero may be the top privacy coin at the moment but it can be replaced if people find bugs or develop a better coin.

Again, it's not an opponent for Monero at all, Monero is just peer to peer electronic cash like bitcoin, Dusk is an ecosystem made of anonnymous security tokens

Once this has been discussed in previous pages, I think perhaps it has entered the Team's mind to become a reality 
But I think they cited the term '' concurrent '' only in the sense of criptomoeda related to speed, security and anonymity, comparing parameters

It already has weaknesses as levyashin mentioned:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4656203.msg46144338#msg46144338

So if a better coin arises on the horizon it can go very quick and it is the new  privacy coin.

i don't agree is we use 'opponent' word in crypto sphere, there is no one will defeat other, but if use 'competitor', i agree.
