@mattvanswol @Kelly4Info SECURE THE ELECTIONS is a weapon of mass distraction…

from the fact that Republicans won the elections and have since:

increased debt, increased spending, started a war, caused inflation, protected the criminal elite, betrayed our sovereignty, and infringed on your rights.

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

The House is scheduled to vote this week on a National Defense Authorization that would integrate our military tech & supply chains with Israel’s.

Today, the Rules Committee will decide whether my amendment to strip section 219 will get a vote.

RT to support the Massie amdt.!

@binance,

Thanks for including me in the top 100 blockchain people list, appreciate the signal!

I must decline the Dubai invite though. I do not wish to disrespect, but many of the award voters are avid kaspians who rooted for my kaspa status at least as much as for my research. Let them win or count me out.

Crypto has turned from a euphoric cypherpunk project to a house-friendly casino. You may not be the culprit, but as a top player you hold the lion’s share of the responsibility to correct this, and the October crash your USDe oracle glitch helped trigger adds to what needs to be addressed.

There are three classes of crypto, as @mert put it recently: commercial crypto, casino crypto, cypherpunk crypto. <<Binance should hold a privilege policy for the latter.>> A TBTF CEX should know better and play a different game with hardcore crypto projects.

When binance lists a green frog three weeks post its “launch” but skips a fair-launched-Nakamoto-Consensus-100ms-upgrade-ATH-top-20-the-only-nonbitcoin-marathon-mined project, this is not merely binance rationally calculating; it is also binance molding the market in a way that is alas misaligned with the roots of the movement.

You may feel that kaspa’s sovereign money thesis is boring – that bitcoin is already money and that implementing an internet-speed bitcoin is useless - fine. Wrong but fine. But what’s the thesis for the green frog?

Money is a classic chicken-and-egg product. It is a scam up until one moment before tipping point, “most of the value comes from the value that others place in it.” Considering your resources and influence, I think it's safe to say you can serve as both the egg and the chicken and make it worth your while to push sound attempts towards tipping point.

@cz_binance tweeted recently that “strong projects will be listed.” But binance is part of what defines "strong", it bears responsibility for the market’s compass and impulse and definition of strong. It is not a read-only entity.

Binance listing fees are legit, they are just unfit for category cypherpunk. Kaspa devs and early supporters fairly mined less than half what satoshi and hals mined. We don’t have a 20% ZEC-style founders’ reward or protocol-enforced dev fund; this is not a jab at ZEC and the wonderful @Zooko, who was crashing in my car on a late Thursday back in the low ZEC MC days – if somebody deserves to win it is zooko – but assuming binance is not taking a maxi bet, it should revisit its relationship with hardcore crypto.

We are here through bull and bear, ICOs NFTs XYZs; and we are the source of confidence that restores faith and capital inflow post meme-induced or CEX-induced crashes.

Please fix this.

Thanks again,
hashdag

Hey Elon,

We know you love Bitcoin. But you're hesitant for whatever reason - maybe it's too slow and can't scale on base layer?

If you're looking for something that has all the positive features of Bitcoin (proof of work, fair launched, debasement proof) AND can scale on base layer, you should look into #Kaspa.

$KAS is decentralized, secure, AND scalable (solving the blockchain trilemma). Kaspa has <1 second block confirmations and has final settlement on the base layer. It uses a new protocol to order blocks in parallel and enables significantly higher throughput on the base layer.

It's revolutionary and worth studying - even if just for fun. Who knows, it might help you with launching rockets to Mars.

Happy to chat if you have questions or want to dig deeper!

A new piece by yours truly, perhaps the $KAS community would like to weigh in. There is a character limit and its only an outline of a much longer paper I am working on @hashdag @michaelsuttonil @KaspaClass @christi61026749 @Kaspa_HypeMan @KaspaFacts @fishtuna

@MHiesboeck @onlyKASPAfans @hashdag @christi61026749 @michaelsuttonil @Kaspa_HypeMan @Avivz78 This is probably more true for Coinbase. Binance has to know that BNB has already seen its best days in terms of adoption.

[Christian Ludwig @christi61026749]

Being planned/built on Kaspa by the community:

-a POS system
-A mixer
-Multiple visualizers
-Multiple wallets
-Multiple explorers
-Encrypted P2P messaging service
-SDK for AI prompted games and meme contracts
-SDK for AI inference verification
-Hyperliquid like DEX (but actually decentralized)
-Full casino, games and sports betting
-A Fiverr like app w/ on chain escrow
-Name service
-NFT’s and tokens
-EVM swap and lending
-Lightening layer for Bitcoin
-AI / verification solutions for healthcare
-Industrial apps for energy credit / commodity trading / verification

The beauty of a fair launch Nakamoto style project is the community takes ownership in building a top.

People choose to build on Kaspa because it is the worlds first internet speed, Nakamoto style, economic trust layer.

Think Bitcoin, but for internet speed currency and internet speed ledger of verification/validation/trust of anything.

It takes a while to understand this; but once you do — you realize Kaspa is a new unique class of crypto use case in and of itself.

There’s no need for Bitcoin OpCat when you have Kaspa. Bitcoin is Digital Gold / King of capital / collateral - and always will be #1. Kaspa is digital silver, peer to peer electronic “currency”, internet money, and the world’s true Trustnet.

To put it plainly, in a figurative and literal since, Kaspa is Satoshi -

unchained.

State of $KAS

. Kaspa, as a Layer 1 blockchain, was initially designed as a high-throughput, payment-focused network using the UTXO (Unspent Transaction Output) model, similar to Bitcoin. This architecture, while excellent for fast and efficient transactions, inherently lacks the native programmability required for complex smart contracts that maintain persistent state, unlike account-based blockchains like Ethereum.
However, the Kaspa ecosystem is actively working on enabling smart contract functionality through Layer 2 (L2) solutions and other innovative approaches:
1. Layer 2 Solutions (Rollups):
* Kasplex L2: This is a key Layer 2 solution being developed to bring Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatibility to Kaspa. Kasplex uses a "based rollup" architecture, allowing EVM-compatible smart contracts to operate on top of Kaspa's high-performance BlockDAG. This approach allows for complex computations to occur off-chain while leveraging Kaspa's security and high throughput for settlement.
* Sparkle: Another innovative Layer 2 solution for Kaspa smart contracts, Sparkle is envisioned as a "Layer 1.5" architecture, tightly integrated with Kaspa's base layer. It utilizes zero-knowledge proofs (zk-proofs) to perform complex computations off-chain, submitting only proofs of correctness to the Kaspa network. This enhances both security and scalability while preserving data privacy.
2. KRC20 Tokens:
* The introduction of KRC20 tokens, similar to Ethereum's ERC20 standard, marks a foundational step towards building a broader smart contract infrastructure on Kaspa. While KRC20 tokens themselves don't enable full smart contract functionality, they provide a standard for asset creation and network experimentation, paving the way for more complex decentralized applications (dApps).
3. Future Native Smart Contract Execution:
* Kaspa's long-term roadmap includes the potential for native smart contract execution directly on its base layer. This is a more ambitious goal that would require significant architectural changes to accommodate the statefulness and computational complexity of smart contracts within its UTXO model.
How these solutions aim to work:
* Leveraging Kaspa's Strengths: These Layer 2 solutions are designed to take advantage of Kaspa's core features:
* BlockDAG and GHOSTDAG: Kaspa's BlockDAG structure and GHOSTDAG protocol enable parallel block creation and instant transaction visibility, leading to incredibly high transaction speeds and scalability. This underlying speed and efficiency are crucial for supporting a thriving smart contract ecosystem.
* Proof-of-Work Security: Kaspa's robust Proof-of-Work (PoW) ensures a high level of decentralization and security.
* Off-chain Computation, On-chain Settlement: For rollup-based solutions, the execution of smart contracts often happens off-chain on the Layer 2, which processes transactions and state changes rapidly. Periodically, batches of these transactions and proofs of their validity are then committed to the Kaspa Layer 1 for final settlement and security. This minimizes the burden on the Layer 1 while inheriting its security.
* Interoperability: Some approaches explore connecting Kaspa's Layer 2 solutions with existing smart contract platforms like Ethereum, potentially allowing Kaspa to serve as a fast sequencing layer for transactions settled on Ethereum.
In essence, while Kaspa's Layer 1 currently focuses on high-speed payments, its community and developers are actively building out robust Layer 2 solutions to bring comprehensive smart contract functionality and dApp support to the ecosystem. This strategy allows Kaspa to maintain its core strengths while expanding its capabilities to compete in the broader decentralized application space.
