A Telegram group owner reached out to me to do a AMA for their group about $KAS. There is about 10,000 members in there and will be happening today at 4:30 EST. raid the post if you can.
Tomorrow it's finally time for the first community hangout!
Kaspa Under the Hood: Setting the Stage for vProgs
Grab a beer, coffee, tea, or whatever keeps you going, and join us for the first regular Kaspa community hangout.
We will start with a high-level presentation of the upcoming vProgs architecture and Kaspa’s next stages of development. Since the architecture is extensive, this first session is meant to set the stage for future deep dives.
The presentation is meant to be accessible to people with different technical backgrounds. We will take things step by step, build up the necessary context, and gradually develop a shared understanding of Kaspa’s architecture, trade-offs, and long-term vision.
After that, we will move into a relaxed open discussion where people can ask questions, share ideas, and talk about anything interesting: Kaspa, decentralized infrastructure, incentives, technology, philosophy, or the future of humanity.
Bring your ideas and questions, grab a drink, and join the conversation!

Mind-blowning : a fresh Toccata mainnet node on #Kaspa just synced to tip in 42 minutes flat.
Toccata = $KAS 's massive hard fork upgrade that just dropped L1 programmability (covenants + ZK verification support + enhanced sequencing) while keeping the insane high-block-rate PoW BlockDAG engine that makes Kaspa legendary.
Check the terminal logs:
• ~20 TPS
• Eating 8–16 blocks at a time
• 1,292 transactions processed in 10 seconds , it's black magic compared to the slow-moving chains we’re used to.

The Toccata release is finally out!
The hardfork will activate on mainnet on June 30, 2026 at roughly 1615UTC. 24hrs before activation, updated nodes will disconnect non-updated nodes. Please make sure your node is updated before then.
Release: https://t.co/jwqk2F1Ebo
Upgrade guide: https://t.co/4BzcMM98cs
Pools, exchanges and everyone else that needs to update please make sure you check out the release. We need to make sure all ecosystem participants are aware and upgrade in time if they want to adopt the fork.
The DAA “Score” is more than a score…
474,165,565
An epic score for an epic fork!
BWV 565 is Bach’s famous Toccata and Fugue in D minor, probably the most recognizable “Toccata” reference in Western music. The Netherlands Bach Society lists it as BWV 565, titled Toccata and fugue in D minor, for organ.

**Official Toccata Release — Mainnet Hardfork Activation Included** (Links in reply)
We’re excited to announce the official Kaspa release containing the **Toccata Hardfork** activation logic.
Toccata is scheduled to activate on mainnet at DAA score `474,165,565`, expected around **June 30, 2026, 16:15 UTC**.
This is a consensus-changing upgrade. All node operators, miners, pools, exchanges, indexers, wallets, and infrastructure providers must upgrade before activation to remain compatible with the network.
Toccata introduces a major expansion of Kaspa L1 capabilities, including:
• **Native L1 covenant support** through transaction introspection, allowing for more expressive contracts, including stateful contracts
• **Covenant IDs**, providing stable covenant lineage across UTXO transitions, so covenant instances can preserve continuity as their state moves from one UTXO to the next
• **ZK proof verification on L1** via `OpZkPrecompile`, enabling to trustlessly offload computation off-chain.
• **Partitioned sequencing commitments**, improving support for based ZK applications by making lane-local proving scale with relevant activity rather than global throughput
Please upgrade as soon as possible and verify your nodes are running the new release well before the activation DAA score.
Thank you to everyone who contributed to designing, implementing, reviewing, and testing Toccata.
This is huge. Connecting Kaspa and Education is paramount in adoption and educating the next gen of builders and theorists. We will be supporting this with some $KAS!

There is also a big fundraiser on the Kaspa Discord in support of this effort, that is to be announced soon. (tomorrow?)
While the blood spills, we build. And we never stop building because we know that in the end, we win. See the latest issue of the Weekly Knight, covering last week’s most important topics related to Kaspa and the regulatory crypto markets. Times seem tough, but this is the greatest crypto build-up in history: https://t.co/q5xvklVEJz
Video on how to set up a pre release #Toccata $KAS node for Mac users. It is so simple to do we should have 10,000 nodes running… @IzioDev
-Download the software for Mac at the link in Michael’s tweet
-Open the folder. Copy the file path for Kaspad
-Paste it in a terminal window, press space, then type “- - utxoindex” (no space between the two dashes).
-Press enter and let it run. Use a mini pc or something without a display that can run 24/7. I am using an M1 Mac Mini.
