not really a suggestion, but you can go and look up keywords here on telegram

if there's anything new to announce, i would expect it to be in the biannual report which should be coming out the next few weeks (or even days)

a fully functional testnet has the same functionality as mainnet

sounds like a scam tbh

scalability seems to be working very well through the use of zero knowledge proofs. tps itself is a weird metric. try and search for tps in this chat and look at messages from last year october-ish to december

exactly. dusk isn't a peer to peer network, it's an infrastructure for security trading, so it's kinda inevitable to share your key at some point. securities cannot be held anonymous

not yet

you can send an email to hello@dusk.network

yeah you have to use erc-20 for staking

there is a roadmap for the whole network under https://dusk.network/pages/roadmap. roadmap for testnet is here down at the page: https://dusk.network/news/release-cycle-explained . after daybreak 2.0 launches the incentivized part will probably kick in, if nothing else has to be added or changed

after testnet has been finished and tested fully

https://staking.dusk.network/faq/

take a look here: staking.dusk.network/guide

i didn´t intend to say that there are x partners that are ready to use dusk. but the fact that there is serious interest in dusk, which was confirmed many times, while we still have no communication about that, tells me, a lot of stuff is under nda

the way dusk is built is unique in itself. there's no other virtual machine with native support for zero knowledge proofs out there. that means those actions will be very very efficient. that's needed for scalability, you don't wanna see fees like ethereum.

no it's an extra key that you would have to create

they can monitor transactions to some extent. if the tax office requests your transactions on dusk, you can give them a key with which they can see your activity.

not yet there's still 15 provisioners seen on the block explorer

"After launching Daybreak, the team will start inviting members to join as provisioners, and grow and decentralize the network. It is our aim to be smart about growing the network, and start by onboarding experts first, and first-timers last. Once the first group of experts have paved the way, we’ll continue to onboard enthusiasts based on their profile and sign-up dates."

current staking will be available until mainnet transition yes
