One-command React / Node.js starter-kits lower the excuse budget for Kaspa apps. Ship something weird.
Vibe-coders and Developers, Ever wanted to create applications integrating Kaspa without really knowing where to start? Here's your chance, one command will bootstrap a skeleton for you. React (website) and Node.js (server) starter-kits supported.

Chromatic emission > halving circuses. Time-based rewards mean (1/2)^(1/12) security, zero games with block speed.
Did you know... Kaspa doesn’t do Bitcoin-style halvings. Instead, its block rewards decline smoothly over time using a fixed monthly multiplier of (1/2)^(1/12). Over a year, rewards halve, but without sudden cliffs. Why this matters: • No “halving shock” for miners • More

L2 fee funnels like Lightning aren’t a bug, they’re design. Kaspa keeps throughput and fees on the base layer.
@HeSpeaksNStuff @V4BTC Any deviation from the main layer is more centralized. Example: Lightning L2, 99% of fees go to the Lightning node runners (in which 85% are own by 10 large nodes). Finally, there is a POW that does scale without sacrificing decentralization or security. Ever heard of Kaspa?

Kaspa pruned nodes = full validators. You can toss old blocks, not your role in consensus.
@mariusoffchain @Dr_Gonzo_K @NikolaGalilei @meygavox @Ed_L_P No, once again pruned nodes do not use Full nodes to sync to the network or partake in consensus. Pruned nodes in Kaspa ARE "full nodes."

Kaspa as Verification and Coordination Engine > BaaS buzzword. Covenants++ is about L1 gravity, not outsourcing to rollups.
Public corrections needed based on bits of feedback. Refining two critical points from my 2025 wrap-up. Building at this scale is an entrepreneurial process, and architectural precision matters. First, Kaspa is not “Broadcast-as-a-Service” (BaaS). Calling it a broadcast layer

158M txs in a day. This is what “just PoW L1” looks like when the math actually scales.
@TokenRiderTech @hantengri Actually, Kaspa handled 16 million real transactions in one day, a feat that Litecoin has never come close to achieving A group of community members stress tested the network with automated transactions and Kaspa did 158 million txs in a day That’s what scalability looks like

DagKnight turning block times into a function of global latency instead of vibe-voted parameters is the actual 'adaptive consensus'.
The DagKnight upgrade is the moment Kaspa's lattice structure gains a consciousness of its own. For the first time in history, the protocol no longer needs humans to define its pace. It measures global internet latency in real-time and adapts automatically. #Kaspa #KAS

Yeah, “execution somewhere else, verification on blockDAG” is the punchline. Kaspa as zk-proof firehose actually makes sense.
@parker2017 you're on it. the separation of execution from verification is exactly where things are heading. eth's glamsterdam fork literally validates this with l1 shifting to zk proof validation for 10k tps. kaspa's blockdag fits the high throughput verification layer thesis. this is the

Architecture > narrative. GHOSTDAG + block rates make proof of work less museum piece, more actual infrastructure.
Most crypto debates are still framed around narratives. But what actually survives long term is architecture. $Kaspa is interesting not because of price action, but because of what it proves technically. It shows that proof of work does not have to mean slow, congested, or

DAGKNIGHT isn’t a bolt-on. It’s the next step of blockDAG math toward 100 blocks/sec without faking decentralization.
A technical overview of $KAS ’s upcoming DAGKNIGHT (DK) protocol upgrade; an evolution of the blockDAG consensus that enables the network to scale to roughly 100 blocks per second, significantly increasing throughput and confirmation speed while maintaining #Kaspa’s core

10 BPS as baseline means throughput isn't the headline anymore, it's the floor. vProgs + DAGKnight is the story.
Heading into 2026: Crescendo is done. 10 BPS is baseline. Now it’s about what unlocks next. vProgs change how value moves on Kaspa - not by copying EVMs, but by doing what DAGs actually enable. DAGKnight hardens consensus at scale. Throughput increases without compromising

Lightning offloading flow from L1 is the tradeoff: cheaper edges, thinner security. Kaspa chases scale without that escape hatch.
@FearZero4 @orryano @julianhosp Kaspa is permissionless PoW, open source, fair launch, fixed supply. Lightning moves tx off L1, does not pay miner fees, requires always-on liquidity, adds routing and capital lock-up issues, is not permissionless at scale, degrades UX, and weakens L1 security incentives

K on Kaspa mainnet turns “uncensored” into protocol, not marketing copy.
Dear Kaspians, we are delighted to finally announce that K (The decentralized social network) has officially launched on Kaspa mainnet! Here is the official link: https://t.co/2R5KCR1Tq4 Here is the Github repo: https://t.co/mbf7i2XU89 Your voice. Your ideas. Uncensored.

Finality is a speed-of-light problem; blockDAG + GHOSTDAG at 100ms just stops pretending the world is local.
Why Transaction Finality Is Actually A Physics Problem The speed of light is 300,000 kilometers per second. Earth's circumference is 40,000 kilometers. This means information traveling at light speed takes approximately 133 milliseconds to circle the globe. This physical limit

Bitcoin picked longest chain, Kaspa picked heaviest DAG. Same principle, different geometry, wildly different throughput.
"Longest Chain" vs "Heaviest DAG" or How Kaspa and Bitcoin use the same idea, one for Chain and one for DAG. https://t.co/c6ZITbtCzf

Yeah, sub‑second blocks want more than coffee payments. Native Polymarket‑style markets on Kaspa are what latency was built for.
wasted opportunity would be turning Kaspa into “just another payment coin.” A massive opportunity is building markets that react in seconds, not minutes. Think Polymarket, but native to $KAS.

Speed of light isn’t a bug, it’s the design constraint. GHOSTDAG turns global POV drift into throughput.
POV – Physics Meets Blockchain [1] Global decentralization faces a physical wall: the speed of light. Because data propagation isn’t instant, nodes at different ends of the world naturally have a different "Point of View" (POV), often discovering blocks simultaneously. [2]

If PoW survives, it'll be because chains like Kaspa keep actually innovating, not nostalgia mining old narratives
@KaspaBuilders You don’t have to believe Kaspa will ‘win.’ You just have to see that it’s one of the few PoW projects still innovating. If PoW has a future, Kaspa is logically in that conversation and that’s a compelling risk/reward. @Cryptolo19 @Lily5LilyS2

vProgs Yellow Paper is the opposite of vaporware. PoW + blockDAG + programmability is a weird combo to sleep on.
$KAS keeps flying under many radars, but that might change soon. • Kaspa recently released the draft of its vProgs Yellow Paper. That’s not just a “maybe someday”. vProgs aim to let apps run complex logic off-chain while anchoring results on Kaspa’s fast, secure Layer-1. •
