About Kaspa

What is Kaspa (KAS)?

Kaspa is a decentralized, open-source, and scalable Layer 1 solution.

The project was founded by Yonatan Sompolinsky. Sompolinsky is also one of the authors of the GHOST-DAG protocol, which serves as Kaspa’s underlying consensus mechanism.

Kaspa claims to be the ‘fastest and most scalable instant confirmation transaction layer ever built on a proof-of-work engine’.

KAS is the project’s native currency and is used for all on-chain transactions, as well as for distributing mining rewards. As a Layer-1, KAS is not a token; hence, the reference to it as a ‘coin.’

How does Kaspa work?

Kaspa stands out by using the GHOSTDAG protocol, which allows parallel blocks to coexist and be ordered by consensus. This is known as a blockDAG and ensures secure operations and high block rates. Currently operating at one block per second, with the aim of reaching 10 or even 100, Kaspa Coin emphasises scalability. Key features include querying the DAG’s topology, pruning block data, providing SPV proofs for transaction validity and supporting subnetworks to enhance functionality. Kaspa’s monetary policy, inspired by the 12-note musical scale, reduces block rewards annually, starting at the frequency of note A4.

What makes Kaspa Coin different?

Now you know what Kaspa is, let’s look at the key features that set Kaspa crypto apart in the digital currency ecosystem.

  • GHOSTDAG Protocol: Kaspa utilises a unique Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus mechanism that allows parallel blocks to coexist without conflict.
  • High block rates and security: Kaspa achieves high block rates without compromising on security, setting it apart from traditional blockchain solutions.
  • Innovative Layer-1 Solution: Kaspa offers a platform for instant transaction confirmations, enhancing user experience.
  • Visionary Leadership: It was founded by Yonatan Sompolinsky, who aimed to uphold the principles of the Nakamoto Consensus and stay true to Bitcoin’s core values.
  • Balanced Trade-Offs: Kaspa overcomes the common trade-offs between security, scalability and decentralization found in traditional blockchains.
  • Community-centric: the native currency, KAS, was distributed through a fair launch, and the project is fully community-governed and funded.
