This $kas toccata node software is pretty cool. If you’re solo mining it shows your asic and the amount of hashrate it has as well as the uptime and the total number of blocks mined ⛏️
#PSA
This is the kind of practical infrastructure $Kaspa adoption continues to need.
Payments are only one part of the story. Reporting, tax, and compliance are what help real businesses come onboard.
Thanks, @NOWPayments_io and @getkoinx#Spain 🇪🇸 #KaspaSpain
🇪🇸 Accepting $KAS payments in Spain?
Your finance team needs more than just a fast block rate.
Taxes, reporting and MiCA compliance get complicated fast. To help the #Kaspa ecosystem stay ahead, we’ve teamed up with @getkoinx to create a practical Crypto Compliance Checklist for businesses!
Keep your $KAS operations smooth and compliant!

Cooking something on Kaspa testnet tonight.
SilverScript compiles. Covenants work. Costs basically nothing.
ETH devs been doing this for years paying $50 a click. We're about to do it for fractions of a cent.
Soon™ on @KasTipApp 👨🍳 $kas #kaspa
🚨 Kaspa’s largest wallet (Entity X) has just bought 5.4 million $KAS coins from Bybit.
Their previous accumulation was on April 17, making this their first major purchase in over six weeks.
The ZK side of Toccata is the part most people are still under-reading. Covenants give Kaspa conditional money, but ZK gives it compressed truth. Instead of forcing every node to replay every piece of application logic, the heavy computation can happen outside the base layer, then Kaspa only verifies the proof. That is the clean separation: execution moves to the edge, verification stays anchored in proof-of-work.
That is the real unlock. ZK on Kaspa is not just “privacy transactions,” though confidential flows become possible. It is the beginning of a model where applications can prove correctness without dragging global state into the blockDAG. A Groth16 proof can lock funds behind knowledge of a secret without revealing the secret. A STARK-style flow can prove general-purpose computation happened correctly without every Kaspa node needing to become an execution machine.
So the thesis is simple: Kaspa does not become programmable by becoming computationally bloated. It becomes programmable by becoming a real-time verifier of externally produced truth. ZK lets Kaspa remain lean while still settling complex logic, bridges, assets, private claims, covenant-controlled flows, and eventually vProg-style sovereign computation. That is the deeper architecture: not world-computer maximalism, but proof-compressed coordination, where the base layer does not execute the world, it verifies that the world executed correctly.
Kaspa Toccata mainnet process update:
Today we plan to publish the v1.3.0 mainnet pre-release, without activation, for 1–2 days of broader network sanity testing.
Assuming everything looks good, the following release will be v2.0.0, with activation planned for June 30, 4 weeks from today

It's very satisfying to progressively assemble pieces of the software you love.
1 year ago I only knew one Kaspa surface layer and today I'm starting to feel confident in many of them.
I didn't fully realize the deepness, nor how big I would progress in my beloved field.
We still need Fireblocks to integrate Kaspa it’s a more important catalyst.
Fireblocks is the dominant enterprise-grade custody and wallet infrastructure platform used by hundreds of institutions, banks, hedge funds, and a huge chunk of centralised exchanges.
It handles secure key management (via their MPC-CMP tech), policy engines, and operational workflows for thousands of assets across 150+ blockchains. Without native Kaspa support:
• Many exchanges literally can’t add KAS easily or safely at scale because they rely on Fireblocks for hot/cold wallets, transfers, and regulatory compliance.
• Institutions (think hedge funds, ETFs, or corporate treasuries) won’t touch it yet in size if their existing Fireblocks setup doesn’t support it out of the box custom integrations are expensive, slow, and introduce extra risk.
This is a roadblock. Several exchanges have said they want to list Kaspa but are waiting on Fireblocks. It was apparently on their roadmap/to-do list last year, but it hasn’t shipped yet.
This is exactly the kind of “unsexy but critical” infrastructure play that separates projects stuck in retail circles from ones that unlock real institutional capital.
Copper’s ClearLoop is a partial workaround for some OTC/trading flows, but it’s not a full replacement for broad custody + exchange support.
But with Kaspa maturing with Toccata the case for integration is greatly enhanced.
LAST MINUTE: @LukeDashjr has announced he's began writing a book called "Kaspa is the future; Bitcoin was the testnet".
In this profound work of contemplation, $BTC core developer explains why he has secretly accumulated $KAS during market dips and the hopes for the future. *
@caprisieum C'est juste que les moteurs a essence étaient bien plus pratique et efficient que les premiers prototypes électriques au début du siècle dernier... vraiment un discours pour prendre les gens pour des cons, effectivement il devient insupportable
