The Web3 creator economy has been stuck in two pitfalls—an incomplete regulatory environment and overly fragmented monetization channels. The collaboration between DUSK and a leading exchange's CreatorPad seems to aim for a breakthrough here.

Simply put, Dusk is building a privacy-compliant technical foundation. Creators use confidential security contracts to encrypt and record copyright proofs for their works, generating an immutable digital certificate. When distributing revenue, zero-knowledge proof technology is employed to protect financial data from leaks—this is crucial for creators who need to safeguard trade secrets.

CreatorPad offers a prize pool of 3 million DUSK, along with a comprehensive empowerment system that includes funding support, traffic exposure, and business matchmaking. Unlike typical NFT platforms, this ecosystem focuses on professional scenarios such as virtual content creation and cross-chain copyright trading.

What will the actual implementation look like? Intangible cultural heritage inheritors can directly protect their trade secrets, cross-border creative teams can hedge against exchange rate risks, digital artists can earn stable income—all within a compliant framework for global monetization. The core logic seems to be: creative ideas are valuable in themselves, and with compliance as the underlying support, the process becomes much smoother.
