@cz_binance@ohyishi Can you list $Kaspa so that I can transfer all my $Kas there? Enough with listing all these shit memecoins. We want utility coins on Binance.
@hantengri Kaspa might be one of the most interesting L1s right now. A lot of people would appreciate seeing your style of analysis on it. Do $Kas next @kaspaunchained
What a comical ass reply to me @jack. You say this while having a pinned tweet talking about how you reject the powers that be, and believe in “rough consensus and running code”. So which one is it man? Are you compliant to the system’s rules and regulations or are you a cypherpunk who cares about self sovereignty?
Bitcoin’s lack of scalability incentivizes middlemen and L2 “solutions” such as the one that you are profiting off of with @Square and @CashApp. This is a fact.
If you truly cared about cypherpunk values and rough consensus you would be building a payment system with the only internet speed proof of work protocol that exists today called Kaspa.
10 blocks every second on the L1 secured by proof of work. But you aren’t because Kaspa’s speed and scalability perfected after over a decade offers no incentives for middlemen like yourself to build parasitic layer 2s. It’s just….code.
You are actively hurting Bitcoin adoption, not bringing it about.
@RachelConlan Rachel, I couldn't help but notice @binance hasn't responded to this post with 2.4m impressions.
What's your take on this situation regarding not listing #Kaspa?
Why does a true cypherpunk project like $KAS wait forever for a Binance spot listing while random dogs and frogs coins get listed overnight?
$Kas is fair launched, PoW blockDAG, no VC, pure decentralization like Bitcoin.
Do the right thing and list Kaspa.
Hello Ishaq,
This project is currently available on Binance Futures. Please note that a Futures listing does not guarantee a Spot market listing, as Spot listings follow a separate review process.
For official updates on new Spot listings, please refer to: https://t.co/O1LxfYvlXH
Thank you for your understanding. MM
@binance Stop asking for 3% of the $KAS supply. $Kas isn’t a meme or a VC backed company. Give the $KAS community what they deserve @cz_binance@_RichardTeng
@binance,
Thanks for including me in the top 100 blockchain people list, appreciate the signal!
I must decline the Dubai invite though. I do not wish to disrespect, but many of the award voters are avid kaspians who rooted for my kaspa status at least as much as for my research. Let them win or count me out.
Crypto has turned from a euphoric cypherpunk project to a house-friendly casino. You may not be the culprit, but as a top player you hold the lion’s share of the responsibility to correct this, and the October crash your USDe oracle glitch helped trigger adds to what needs to be addressed.
There are three classes of crypto, as @mert put it recently: commercial crypto, casino crypto, cypherpunk crypto. <<Binance should hold a privilege policy for the latter.>> A TBTF CEX should know better and play a different game with hardcore crypto projects.
When binance lists a green frog three weeks post its “launch” but skips a fair-launched-Nakamoto-Consensus-100ms-upgrade-ATH-top-20-the-only-nonbitcoin-marathon-mined project, this is not merely binance rationally calculating; it is also binance molding the market in a way that is alas misaligned with the roots of the movement.
You may feel that kaspa’s sovereign money thesis is boring – that bitcoin is already money and that implementing an internet-speed bitcoin is useless - fine. Wrong but fine. But what’s the thesis for the green frog?
Money is a classic chicken-and-egg product. It is a scam up until one moment before tipping point, “most of the value comes from the value that others place in it.” Considering your resources and influence, I think it's safe to say you can serve as both the egg and the chicken and make it worth your while to push sound attempts towards tipping point.
@cz_binance tweeted recently that “strong projects will be listed.” But binance is part of what defines "strong", it bears responsibility for the market’s compass and impulse and definition of strong. It is not a read-only entity.
Binance listing fees are legit, they are just unfit for category cypherpunk. Kaspa devs and early supporters fairly mined less than half what satoshi and hals mined. We don’t have a 20% ZEC-style founders’ reward or protocol-enforced dev fund; this is not a jab at ZEC and the wonderful @Zooko, who was crashing in my car on a late Thursday back in the low ZEC MC days – if somebody deserves to win it is zooko – but assuming binance is not taking a maxi bet, it should revisit its relationship with hardcore crypto.
We are here through bull and bear, ICOs NFTs XYZs; and we are the source of confidence that restores faith and capital inflow post meme-induced or CEX-induced crashes.
Please fix this.
Thanks again,

You can tell Bitcoin is destined to fail by how obsessed its community is with the price rather than any real utility.
It’s been over 16 years, and still, nobody uses it for anything meaningful. Bitcoin serves no practical purpose beyond speculative gambling.
Compare that to the stock market, while often overvalued (now) as well, stock prices at least reflect companies that produce goods, services, and real value. The same applies to gold, which is used in millions of technologies and holds proven store-of-value properties, as well as silver, oil, and other assets with tangible utility.
Bitcoin’s “value” rests on three pillars: Tether-driven price manipulation, retail speculation and FOMO, and the greater fool theory. None of these are sustainable, and all will erode over time.
One day, people will look back on Bitcoin as a fascinating case study in how emotion (greed and fear) can completely override logic. It’s honestly spectacular to witness.
