Kaspa L1 DeFi just leveled up 🔥
KRON is live - the first native launchpad & DEX built directly on Kaspa L1 with covenants.
No rollups. No custodians. Pure L1.
We’re already displaying its data…
and the volume is already running ahead of ZealousSwap.
This is what native programmability looks like.

Almost done integrating a full AMM on the KCC-0020 token standard - the first conformant build. Swaps, liquidity, farming - live on testnet.
Honest finding from building it: the default 3-in / 3-out token family cap makes richer flows possible but less user friendly. Anything that composes more than one pool in a single action has to be spread across a few transactions instead of landing atomically in one.
The standard already lets a token choose a higher max_token_inputs/outputs. For DeFi-bound tokens, a bigger family = one-tx atomic composition = smoother, safer UX. Worth setting at mint.
A few more things we ran into that we want to check our understanding on - genuinely asking, corrections welcome:
• Covenant size - our pool re-embeds the token template at every note it validates, and the program grew to ~113 KB before we hand-deduped it. Is there a constant-pooling / shared-template mechanism we’re missing?
• Entrypoint dispatch - the spec defines it as Hash(FunctionSignature)[0:4], but the reference compiler emits a 1-byte positional branch index. Which is normative?
• Output state - we can read an input’s state, but for outputs we can only assert a candidate (no readOutputState). Is that asymmetry intended, or is a reader planned?
• Mass budget - between covenant sizes and the ~500k mass ceiling, only a little fits in one tx before richer flows break into several. Is multi-tx the intended model?
First conformant build, so on the open questions it’s very possible we’re holding some wrong. Happy to be corrected.

3 KCCs by @iziodev (1, 2) & @manyfest_ (20) were finalized today as DRAFT calls for convention: https://t.co/UU3d6rhHMe
Now would be a great time to really challenge these specs and find their possible limitations and tradeoffs
We said the covenants would be open. Then we said the SDK would follow.
Shipped. ✅
The KCC20 AMM SDK is live - a self contained, dependency free client that builds + signs swaps entirely in your browser. The wallet signs only your own funding input; a dumb relay just broadcasts. No keys leave your machine. No trust required.
And it’s verifiable: it compiles byte for byte to the exact transactions our production builder makes. Don’t take our word - run the selftest.
Read it, fork it, build on it:

Real adoption comes from open tools people can actually use. This is one.

Congrats on the Cook launch. During a review of the KCC20 order-book stack we found serious security issues - including one critical-severity - on the live (tn10) deployment.
Withholding details publicly, by design. DM us for the private report so it’s fixed before mainnet.

KaspaCom is cooking up a new era of KCC20 trading, powered by Kaspa L1 covenants. ⚡️
@bathtoob30 A rug needs an owner key - mint, drain, pause. Ours has none. The covenant is the only authority, enforced by Kaspa consensus.
That’s the whole point of publishing the code: you don’t have to trust us. Read it.

Show me the rug function. I’ll wait.
Everyone’s excited a CEX might hold $KAS.
A CEX holding a coin isn’t adoption. It’s custody.
Adoption is people using the network. We shipped a live L1 DEX on testnet - 16 people tried it.
The bottleneck was never listings. It’s that we’re waiting to be adopted instead of adopting.
It’s live - go use it:

Testing KaspaKaha earns airdrop points.
Here’s how 👇
Every swap, liquidity add, and farm stake on testnet-10 is tracked per wallet, on-chain.
Scoring is anti whale - volume counts on a curve, so showing up consistently beats one big trade.
You don’t need size. You need to actually use it.
→ Connect a Kaspa wallet (Kasware / Kastle)
→ Grab free testnet KAS
→ Swap, add liquidity, stake in a farm
→ Watch your rank climb the live leaderboard
Testnet activity counts now.
Mainnet later, weighted differently.
Early real users win.
Come break it → https://t.co/mP5YgLil8V
