Many people hear about Hedger and think it's here to replace Zedger, but they're way off. That's not how it works at all.

Zedger targets the UTXO system, which already has quite mature privacy solutions in this field, suitable for users and projects deeply involved in the UTXO ecosystem. Hedger? It’s specifically designed for the EVM execution layer, addressing privacy pain points within the EVM ecosystem.

Here's the key point — these two are not in conflict; they are complementary. One focuses on UTXO, the other on EVM. Users choose the solution based on which ecosystem they are in. Only using Zedger? That would be a waste of the huge EVM market. Only using Hedger? UTXO users might leave. Clearly, the Dusk team has thought this through, which is why they’ve developed this dual-engine layout.

Even better, these two engines can be connected. For example, your assets are on the UTXO layer, and through cross-layer functions, you transfer them to the EVM side. Hedger continues to protect your privacy, making the entire process seamless without jumping between different systems. Such a privacy protection scheme covering the entire ecosystem is indeed rare in the industry.

In simple terms, Dusk is building not just a single privacy tool but a complete privacy ecosystem. The dual engines are just the beginning; more features and operations are in the pipeline to steadily enhance the ecosystem’s competitiveness. $DUSK

Data shows that this dual-engine logic indeed cannot plug all the loopholes. However, will the gas costs for cross-layer integration, when calculated hourly, become too high... Let's wait and see the actual data.

Ah, finally someone clarified it—it's not necessary to rank everything as high or low.

Oh wow, this logic is indeed clear. Complementary rather than competitive. I was mistaken before.

This dual-engine layout clearly aims to capture both ends. I've always said that a multi-chain ecosystem is the trend. Now, Dusk has truly secured the commanding height with this move. Now I see clearly. What seems like a simple complementary design is actually building a privacy moat, with competitiveness layered upon layer. How can others catch up? Three years ago, I was talking about ecosystem-level solutions being the most imaginative. Now, a team is finally doing just that. Opportunities like this don't come often. The window for dual-engine deployment is only a few years. Those who spotted it early really profited. Don't get caught up in whether Hedger or Zedger is stronger. The key is that these two working together is the ultimate goal. Many people haven't yet realized this layer.

Oh, it's not a fight, it's a replacement. Understanding it this way makes it clear. Amazing, cross-layer can still connect seamlessly. That's true ecological thinking. Dusk's gameplay is interesting; the dual-engine deployment is truly different. This logic makes sense; covering both UTXO and EVM markets is indeed rare. Wait, how about the gas fees for cross-layer transfers? Will they be prohibitively high? Hmm, it seems Dusk is playing a big game. The privacy ecosystem really needs to be like this; single-point breakthroughs are too limited. The dual-engine layout is indeed innovative, much better than many projects. So, will there be new modules added later? The prospects look quite promising.

Oh wow, this is true ecological thinking, not just simple competition at such a low level.

Oh, I see. Complementary rather than substitutive. I had misunderstood before. After thinking about it, I'm still a bit concerned about cross-layer security... Can it really be seamless? Dusk's move is quite good; both ecosystems benefit, which is indeed rare.

Oh, I see. Complementary is not mutually destructive; I had misunderstood before. Alright, Dusk's strategic layout is indeed well thought out. The dual engines covering UTXO and EVM, along with seamless user experience, is the proper approach to building an ecosystem.

Oh wow, finally someone explained this clearly, or else we would have been led astray.
