Buy KaspaTraditional cryptocurrencies often struggle with issues such as scalability and the speed of blockchain transactions. Kaspa aims to solve these problems. For example, traditional blockchains experience slower transactions due to network congestion, especially as they grow in size. This results in higher fees and slower processing times.
Kaspa is able to circumvent the shortcomings of conventional blockchain technology because it is the most rapid, scalable, open-source, decentralised and instant-confirmation transaction layer supported by a Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus mechanism. Additionally, Kaspa’s unique GhostDAG protocol improves the capacity and throughput of the blockchain by enabling parallel transactions. It is these quick transactions that make Kaspa famous.
Kaspa’s innovative blockDAG design ensures transactions are instantly added to the distributed ledger. Furthermore, both Bitcoin and the GhostDAG/PHANTOM system are based on the principles of the Satoshi Nakamoto Consensus, which Kaspa also supports. Due to its decentralised nature, lack of premine and lack of inflation, Kaspa possesses all the desirable qualities of Bitcoin.
In summary, the PoW technique ensures that Kaspa transactions are just as secure as Bitcoin transactions, but they occur far more quickly — around one block per second — than Bitcoin and other traditional cryptocurrencies. The number of blocks per second on the Kaspa network is set to increase thanks to a language redesign that is currently underway. As a result, smart contracts and decentralised finance will flourish.
Unlike conventional blockchains, Kaspa uses the GHOSTDAG proof-of-work consensus protocol. This is the most notable difference between the two. Rather than abandoning blocks formed simultaneously, GHOSTDAG allows them to coexist and arranges them through consensus. You can see how it works using their real-time blockDAG visualiser.
Kaspa improves block rates while preserving the “security guarantees of Bitcoin”, enabling it to avoid the “traditional security-scalability-decentralisation trade-off” that blockchains are known for.
The project’s marketing materials state that it is “true to the principles Satoshi embedded into Bitcoin” and a “scalable generalization of the Nakamoto Consensus”.
Marketing materials for the project state that Kaspa is entirely community-governed and community-funded, and that KAS was distributed via a fair launch. It is clear, therefore, that Kaspa takes great pride in being a community initiative.
