The expression '' kill all alts '' is actually presumptuous and egocentric, the future of crypto certainly depends on union, despite healthy competition, which needs to be beneficial to the market, as well as to the cryptographic segments, always

so if i understand correctly there will be 2 different, consecutive tokens, a temporary erc20 token distributed to the exchanges in December and then a swap to the final token, if you work with companies/exchanges that register their users in my opinion anonymity it fails...

Where does this project have headquarter because it seems like your team is coming from different ares of the world. Did you work on some other project together before or this team really started just one year ago?
We have offices in both Rotterdam(NL) and Amsterdam(NL). Dusk is a joined venture between Informance and Web3 which have worked together in the past.

-The rewards paid to Provisioners are inversely proportional to their staked amount (i.e. bigger stakes get proportionally rewarded lesser, in respect to smaller stakes) and are earned regardless of Provisioners' participation in the VVN operations. This measure is not a viable option outside of the Dusk Blockchain, where the probability to win the sortition lottery and therefore take an active part to the SBA⋆ algorithm is not associated with a reward, except the sole payment of the transaction fees.
Then it makes sense for a large wallet to split a large amount into many small wallets? Or is the number of Provisioners limited? Although about this I no information not saw.
That is a Sybil attack and Sybil resistance is in fact covered in the whitepaper.
Splitting your wallet into many small wallets decreases your chance of winning a ballot. A big wallet has a higher chance of winning a ballot, but at the same time the reward decreases proportionally to the size of your stake.

Just heard about SharkPool - "will be using hash power to kill all Altcoins" , will this affect DUSK Network significantly?
SharkPool will not have any effect on Dusk Network for a following reasons;
-Dusk Network does not utilize PoW
-The rewards paid to Provisioners are inversely proportional to their staked amount (i.e. bigger stakes get proportionally rewarded lesser, in respect to smaller stakes) and are earned regardless of Provisioners' participation in the VVN operations. This measure is not a viable option outside of the Dusk Blockchain, where the probability to win the sortition lottery and therefore take an active part to the SBA⋆ algorithm is not associated with a reward, except the sole payment of the transaction fees.
WTF is Sharkpool? We'll kill all altcoins is a bold statement when most of the top altcoins are not even PoW , Eos, Tezos, Neo, Nem, Tron are all DPoS, Stellar and Xrp aren't PoW as well
Stupid sentence. Nobody can kill all altcoins and nobody can predict what in crypto will happen.
Some altcoins have totally different systems like Iota or Byteball or anonymous functions.
Furthermore investors decide which coin they buy, not Sharkpool.

What do you mean. Can you provide link for further details ?
Just google it man, https://www.bitcoinforbeginners.io/cryptocurrency-news/sharkpool-bitcoin-cash-impact/
It is just another drama idiot bch community bringing to us. Nothing more.
Well its an eye opener to the crypto community for they must do their best to make blockchain networks as robust as possible including this project.

DUSK networks are noted for their fast, anonymous, and secure data transfer. But I want to find out how you can be widely accepted around the world when the project focuses on privacy?
Would like to ad a question to ad: how you can be widely accepted around the world when the project focuses on legal STO's?
Why not..? Do you think this is the first team that is doing this.?
Privacy should have been the key element in crypto projects but these days because of the regulations its getting worse.

I've been reading your Medium articles that i had overlooked in the past, because there were too much good news to and whitepaper to browse 
. This was excellent news too: https://medium.com/dusk-network/ivan-poon-joins-dusk-network-as-strategic-advisor-a2f1bb1f2c11
Even though i normally don't put any weight on the role of advisors, this one made perfect sense.

yeah I saw this one a while back. this guys sure seems young, yet he has a lot of experience.
In the blockchain scene every year counts as 5 normal years!

I read a few pages ago that the team was mostly Dutch so they are probably based in the Netherlands.

True that regulators will not co-exist with anonymity but if by miracle they can pull this off, it might be one of the most promising token to come out this year just maybe.
We do not interfere with or aim to supplant KYC/AML or other regulatory processes. We simply allow licensed and regulated third parties to commit the outcome of these unavoidable processes to the Dusk network. They still keep a registry and whitelist of their investors, as required by regulations. In turn we use ZK cryptography to make sure that their pre-approved transactors can trade confidentially, hence avoiding price manipulation.
Open transactions are not acceptable in regulated markets. Think about the consequences of moving millions on an exchange wallet. Even without selling a single asset, just by broadcasting such a tx on an open ledger you can manipulate the market and induce panic selling in a way that is completely illegal.

is DUSK going to deliver temporary ERC token then swap or going to release direct to platform?
An ERC20 equivalent token will be released to the market in December. We will swap them to the native token in Q2 2019.

Another project came out with powerful concept as usage of privacy offering platforms and tokens will increase in future based on assumptions. In that case along with other features it can emerge and grow well. I will keep it on my watch list and don't have immediate plan to buy. Need to check everything by various angles and time is sufficient for these purposes till main investment round starts.
You are right and you can see that team is really confident in what they are building as they don't have any bounty and ICO. Only the private which as far as I heard is going really well.

I am not sure why you are talking about Facebook suddenly. It is basically a platform for exhibitionists. Facebook is like a nude beach on the internet. Why would anyone expect privacy there?
Horses for courses.
And DUSK is a completely different horse for a completely different course.

You are absolutely right, if you want privacy then stay away from the social networks like twitter, facebook, instagram, snapchat etc.
they're literately selling your private info to the highest bidder in front of your eyes. don't post anything there you might later regret.
