Anyone on my feed a Catholic Bitcoiner or Kaspian? Or just a Catholic in general? If so, this is the book to read by @FeserEdward 🙌

Hey Kaspians, check out my recent interview with the Igra Labs team. This is an important read to understand the future of PoW, as we cover (what I think to be) the downfall of Bitcoin, and how Kaspa comes to the rescue as the ultimate, global sequencer.
KASmedia recently sat down with the team behind Igra Labs, Pavel and Dennis. We cover the overall future of L2 scaling, not just for Kaspa but for proof-of-work in general, particularly Bitcoin: from BIP-420 and fractional reserve banking to global sequencing solutions and

If you’re a Japanese speaker, definitely check out this book. Much of it covers my articles on Kaspa. Great work, @crono_walker !.

A Clean Kaspian Future. By adopting optical-proof-of-work mining (OPoW) AND renewable, clean energy sources, Kaspa can decentralize operational expenses (e.g., energy mining consumption) to such an extreme that regional barriers to mining entry will be removed and ASIC.
Due to Kaspa's unforgeable costliness from mining, we believe that the mining energy securing Kaspa must be abundantly available, climate neutral, and as cheap as possible. In this article, we cover the history and theory of clean energy, MENA's energy infrastructure, the

I was listening to your 2018 interview @CaitlinLong_ with @PeterMcCormack and @saifedean regarding fractional reserve banking risks of $BTC. You mentioned something quite prophetic: If the Fed and other central banks allocate a portion of their reserves to Bitcoin, they could

@hashdag Yeah Kaspa serving as a side-chain sequencer for Bitcoin (I.e., a middleman between Bitcoin and other L2s) would merge the best of both worlds. In other worlds, merging all of the world’s hash power with the abstract realm of DeFi. Unless I’m missing something.

I think option 2 should serve Bitcoin as well. Why not solve Bitcoin’s scability issue via Kaspa? @hashdag What are your thoughts on this?.

A Crypto Strategic Reserve Should Include Hard-Money Digital Assets Only: A Proposed Criteria. @DavidSacks Creating a Crypto Strategic Reserve that includes proof-of-stake tokens is akin to creating a separate fiat reserve with new clothes. The point of a reserve should provide a.

My recent article, “A Path to Digital Silver as a Stateless World Reserve Currency: The Philosophy and History of The Money Trilemma,” was reviewed by the Liberales Institut - a major Swiss economic think tank. Give it a read if you’re a German speaker!.

This is huge. Marathon Digital Holdings has only ever mined BTC. They couldn’t ignore that Kaspa is the next step in the evolution of money and distributed systems.
Today we're announcing that we have been actively mining Kaspa. Diversification has been key to our investments in energy solutions and tech innovations, and it remains crucial in our digital asset compute operations. Read the full press release:
