I was scrolling down a Bitcoin forum when I noticed a post about this new coin claiming to solve blockchain. After it popped up two more times, I had to see what the deal was.
The claims were so big, they forced me to DoMyOwnResearch, one that started two years ago and continues to this day with growing momentum.
I started with (finally) understanding Bitcoin, why it must be slow to be secure, step by step I learned about GHOSTDAG all the way to understanding the basic ideas of DAGKNIGHT - The thing is complex and my understanding is partial, but man… what a beautiful moment that was!
Some solutions are... solutions. But some rare ones are THE solution. Not an incremental improvement, not a patch - DAGKNIGHT is of this rare kind, more of a fundamental truth than a new invention.
During my software dev career, I got paid to build products for companies. Open source projects always excited me but I stood from afar. Until today =]
Kaspa was just too mind blowing, over the last month I decided to step in and work on something I deeply believe in. After a lot of help from the developer community, and @michaelsuttonil in particular, I made my first contribution to an open source project!
Kaspa is intriguing. It's research, math, cryptography, and hardcore software engineering. But it's also community. I mostly stay away from social media, but this time it's different. Contributing great, but contributing to the community in Kaspa's case matters just as much.
In the near future I aim to translate some of the concepts behind the tech, share thoughts & ideas, and hopefully inspire others to jump in as well.
Abandon the idea of taking profit from Kaspa at a specific price target, since doing so would mean exchanging superior money for inferior money. Instead, transform your understanding of money: aim to spend only what you need and use KAS to store remaining value.
