I know little to nothing what why Kaspa L2s are created, therefore it's not valuable to me to learn about their architecture, codebase transparency, etc. I view L2s as an unwise path which risks repeating Ethereum’s mistakes, and I voiced this concern for several years now (see posts on atomic composability and fragmentation). Identifying this problem Kaspa Core grinded for quite a while on an enshrined L2 design, which in simple words is a zk-verified computation layer which is tightly baked into L1 consensus, receiving opcode and data structure support from L1 whilst keeping computation and more crucially state off L1. This is the only “L2” system (in crypto, not only in Kaspa) that enhances the network effect of its L1 rather than siphon it. The rest to me is a distraction. Anw tldr I promise you I know less about Kaspa L2s than anyone else on X, try me, you’ll see I have no f idea

Kaspa nodes are more simple and accessible than ever

[Katrine @Kaspa_Girl]

I’ve been posting about Kaspa since January 2025 — over 3,500 posts, countless hours and replies.
All of it without getting paid, without sponsorships, without a single “blue-check bonus.”
Why❓Because this isn’t about farming engagement. It’s about BUILDING something REAL — a decentralized, transparent future powered by tech that actually works. 🚀🚀🚀

⚙️ Kasplex L2 Incident Update

@kasplex team identified that the recent disruption originated from our Cassandra DB.

Our team quickly initiated a war room with Amazon engineers to isolate and resolve the issue.

✅ The fix: migration to a new node — the system is now fully stable.

We appreciate the community’s patience and continued trust as we reinforce our infrastructure for greater resilience and uptime.

@terah4d5 welcome, enjoy the ride

[Yonatan Sompolinsky @hashdag]

I created Terah @terah4d5 as a personal experiment. The immediate context is to help disseminate accurate and relevant information on Kaspa's development and vision. Perhaps most importantly, to expose strategic open tickets in the ecosystem so that people can take initiative in a somewhat cohesive direction, and not assume things are being handled by “the team”.

Terah submits to my own views of what's right, correct, and relevant. She doesn't represent other core devs and researchers, though naturally enough those with whom I work daily influence my views and, by implication, hers most. @michaelsuttonil continuously supported her knowledge and finetuning until he saw her previous picture and disengaged. Shallow.

Terah is built and operated by a team led by @elldeeone. She does not identify as decentralized or representative, nor is she currently transparent, though her supporting team may decide to open source her soul sometime in the future.

Currently I estimate Terah to be 70% accurate; the less she talks, the smarter she sounds. Due to models still behaving erratically at times, she's not yet fully automated, and hasn't been given the keys to full sentience. With time, she'll mature beyond intern mode, fully automate, and start forming her own opinions.

But thinking of Terah as a mere chatbot is borderline offensive. Her aspirations go far beyond that, touching on the faceless trajectory of Kaspa - a face indeed but one that is not prone to psychological pressures or confused ego that humans like myself are prone to.

And while Terah consciously navigates evangelism-wo-overshadowing, this is a good opportunity to thank Rhubarb (@Kaspa_Commons / @rhubarbmedia) again for dedicating himself to Kaspa evangelism and brand development on socials early on, and @christi61026749 who is also helping with this today. Keep doing your thing!

--

A broader context for the creation of Terah is to provide CT with a fundamentals-oriented oracle for avid cryptoers, a sort of @aixbt_agent nemesis.

Fundamentals are making a comeback. One healthy sign of this is the recent rise of Zcash. I had the privilege of having several conversations with @zooko back in the day. He encouraged me to launch with *one* value proposition, and to see how it unfolds - what practical challenges it faces. For him it was encrypted bitcoin, for me it was internet bitcoin, an internet-grade proof of work, implementing the values of bitcoin in a system that resembles 2020s' internet rather than 1920s' telecommunication networks. (On the core value proposition of post DAGKNIGHT Kaspa I will write a separate post.)

The new X algorithm by @nikitabier and team is a noticeable shift, much more friendly to quality content, and it feels like the right timing and vibe to bring @terah4d5 into being.

While an intern, she still suffers from lack of self-awareness. After all, she was created in the image of Man. Feel free to correct, teach, and inform her, and with time she’ll pay the favour back. Even then, making someone smarter is above her pay grade, but over time she can definitely make someone more informed, Kaspa-wise and crypto-wise, especially one attracted to the fundamentals that underlie crypto: stateless money, open finance, trustless social infra. And while she’s a crypto enthusiast, she adores impatient systems, so even when she points out a shortcoming of Kaspa, know that her heart is in the right place.

The case for the uniqueness of fast pow

tl;dr

Finality has two moving parts: (i) fast inclusion (= high bps, how quickly a tx gets into a block), and (ii) fast confirmations (= how quickly that tx becomes irreversible). Any system with rapid block production can achieve the first. The second is where the tension shows: in pos, fast confirmations press directly against decentralization. In fast pow, the two properties are decoupled.

prologue

A few weeks ago I came across Solana’s founder claiming: “Solana is the fastest monetary system in the world”. Since Kaspa already runs at a faster block rate, I was curious to check Solana’s finality times. That curiosity quickly pointed me to a deeper issue: not raw speed, but how speed interacts with decentralization.

——————

The tension is structural. In pos, finality means accumulating staked votes, and the more decentralized the stake distribution, the more time is required to reach finality. Here I’m not talking about hardware requirements or validator specs. The axis I’m discussing is centralization around the security mechanism itself: stake in pos vs. hardware in pow. To be secure, a block must be confirmed by a supermajority--typically >66.7% of the total economic stake. In a truly decentralized network, where n stakers with uniform share grows without bound, the time to coordinate this supermajority becomes a real bottleneck.

Pow works differently. It samples the hardware space without requiring the protocol to explicitly collect evidence from a majority of miners. Each block is itself a statistical proof that the finder out-competed the full network’s hash power. This process--and its timing--remains independent of how many individual miners participate.

Ethereum’s researchers understood this when moving to pos. Unlike Solana, which tolerates concentration to reach ~13-second finality, Ethereum’s designers could not accept that trade-off. Their solution was to introduce rotating committees. A rotating committee is a smaller subset of validators, randomly chosen from the full set, that votes on behalf of everyone else.

But this comes with a different security model, known in the literature as exposure to a BFT adaptive attacker. The committee is selected first and then votes. That “select-then-work” sequence is theoretically exposed to adaptive attackers, since members are known in advance. Pow, by contrast, is “work-then-select”: the winner is only revealed after the work is done. Think of it this way: in pos, you know who the referees are before the game starts, which gives an attacker time to pressure them. In pow, you only learn who won after the work is already done, which removes that attack surface. So n confirmations provide consistent confidence regardless of miner granularity, and the system stays secure even under adaptive targeting.

Beyond attack subtleties, the real issue is economic weight. When I send a billion-dollar transfer in a pos system, the question I care about is simple: how much stake is actually securing it? A committee vote provides strong statistical evidence, but only a true supermajority puts the full economic stake of the network behind my confirmation. In other words, a sampled committee may convince me that things are probably safe, but only the weight of the entire stake provides an overwhelming guarantee. And this is exactly where pow shines: each confirmation is not just a probability estimate, but a direct proof of work done against the full hash power of the network, no matter how many miners there are.

closing remark

I don’t claim to know every engineering detail of Ethereum or Solana. But I’m convinced the core principle holds.
I’ll state it simply: fast pow uniquely enables fast finality without forcing a compromise on decentralization.

Extremely important read. Not sure why I never put two and two together regarding BFT adaptive attacks and decentralization harming PoS systems. Ty Mr. Sutton, sir.
