Kaspa Toccata mainnet process update:

Today we plan to publish the v1.3.0 mainnet pre-release, without activation, for 1–2 days of broader network sanity testing.

Assuming everything looks good, the following release will be v2.0.0, with activation planned for June 30, 4 weeks from today

That's a really good question, but it's hard to answer in a single tweet because our mission is quite extensive, and it requires a lot of background knowledge to really understand what sets Kaspa apart.

Currently, a lot of people see Kaspa as “Bitcoin’s crazy little brother” that improves time-to-finality by leveraging the benefits of DAG-based consensus protocols without accepting their traditional drawbacks, such as decreased decentralization or a limited validator set.

This perception is somewhat accurate, but it falls short of conveying the full picture, because Kaspa’s vision extends far beyond just trying to be a better Bitcoin.

Anyone willing to study Kaspa and its broader vision will discover similarities to nearly all major existing DLT designs: from Bitcoin, to Ethereum, to Solana, Sui, Celestia, and beyond.

My personal view is that “research” in the DLT space is approaching a point of convergence. We increasingly understand how to push distributed systems close to the limits of what physics permits. The frontier is no longer only about raw throughput or faster finality. The attention is shifting toward game theory, incentives, sequencing, MEV, alignment, and how to build systems where the economic incentives of users, builders, miners, validators, applications, and infrastructure providers do not work against each other.

That is why debates like based rollups versus arbitrary sequencing, shared sequencing, MEV mitigation, proposer-builder separation, and execution-layer incentives matter so much. These are not niche technical details. They determine whether a network can remain neutral, decentralized, and aligned while scaling to global usage.

And this is where I think Kaspa is pushing the boundaries in a very important way.

Kaspa is not merely trying to be “fast.” The goal is to build an L1 where speed, decentralization, security, and incentives are aligned at the base layer. A system that does not scale by hiding complexity behind trusted committees, privileged sequencers, centralized validator sets, or opaque coordination mechanisms, but instead tries to preserve the spirit of proof-of-work while extending what an L1 can realistically do.

Because Kaspa arrived later than many other major projects, it does not carry the same degree of technological debt. It can absorb lessons from Bitcoin, Ethereum, rollups, modular blockchains, high-throughput monolithic chains, DAG research, MEV research, and the broader history of decentralized systems, and combine those lessons into something more optimal.

To me, that is what Kaspa is building: not just a faster blockchain, but a more incentive-aligned decentralized infrastructure layer.

But this also creates a different challenge.

Kaspa’s biggest problem today is not its technology. It is the lack of centralized coordination around communicating the vision. And because Kaspa is a grass-roots movement, that responsibility does not belong to a marketing department, or a single leadership team. It belongs to the community.

That also means the community has a different role to play.

There will always be holders who are mainly interested in price, and that is completely fine. But there also need to be people who are here because they want to use the technology to build a different future. People who care about the architecture, the incentives, the open questions, the trade-offs, and the long-term trajectory of decentralized infrastructure.

I am one of those people.

I am not interested in DLTs merely as a way to generate wealth. I am interested in them because I believe they can change the trajectory of humanity as a whole.

For that reason, I want to use this opportunity to announce a regular community hangout where we discuss the current state of development, the open questions, and where we can align our vision together.

The first session will be on Tuesday, June 9th, 2026.

We will talk about the vProgs framework, how the codebase works, what sets Kaspa apart, where we improve on existing solutions, and what still needs to be done. The goal is for this to become a regular, possibly bi-weekly, event where we as a community come together to discuss the future and understand the technology.

Eventually, we can invite people from other projects as well, but the main focus at the beginning will be explaining and communicating how things work under the hood.

There is still a lot of work to be done, and I do not want to waste precious time. So the first sessions may feel a little improvised, but we can improve as we go.

The important thing is that we start.

So mark the date: Tuesday, June 9th, 2026.

We've spent the past year getting to know @ScottWu46, and the combination of clarity, ambition, and velocity he brings is something you don't see very often. Many know him as one of the top IOI competitors in history🐸…we think that fifteen years from now, far more will know him for what he's building at @cognition.

Devin's adoption inside the world's largest financial institutions has been remarkable to watch, and we're thrilled to be partnering with @ScottWu46 and the @cognition team as they bring Devin to teams around the world!

[HASH #𐤊 @HashonKas]

Limited 5,555 supply. 287 $KAS/mint.

#HASH NFT's will be your proof of participation in #Kaspa’s guerrilla marketing engine.

Put in the work ... and earn $KAS.

#on𐤊

[Gonzo.𐤊as @Dr_Gonzo_K]

Alright. Time to talk about the #HASH NFTs.

Let’s start with the numbers:
- Supply = 5,555
- Mint price = 287 $KAS

That creates a meaningful pool. And that’s the point.

The funds don’t sit idle. They flow into the HASH engine: community mission rewards, content creation competitions, marketing materials, giveaways, and real-world distribution (stickers, posters, infographics) anything that pushes #Kaspa into physical reality.

But more importantly, the funds flow right back to Kaspians.

The ones doing the work. Running missions. Creating content. Putting in “proof of work.” This isn’t abstract ecosystem funding. It’s $KAS directed toward people generating visibility.

This is community marketing, funded through community participation, and returned into community action.

Now for the part I’ve been keeping quiet for a while:
The collection is created by the same artist behind the @YonatoshiNFT's from @KaspaCom.

With approval from @AbiKaspa and @cryptosione, some of the original DNA and base traits are being reused and evolved into something completely new. [Important disclaimer though: despite the blessing, this collection is not officially affiliated with KaspaCom.]

But why build on Yonatoshi?

Well, firstly because I love that lo-fi pixel art style. I’m a 90’s kid. I can’t shake it. But mostly because the collection already captured something real about Kaspa culture.

Yonatoshi was built around hackers, devs, builders … the cypherpunk backbone of the ecosystem. HASH picks up where that story leaves off.

This time, the focus shifts from builders behind the screen to the people carrying the signal outward. The marketers. The organizers. The loud ones. The people willing to push #Kaspa into public view instead of waiting for someone else to do it.

Same universe. Different mission. Think the prequals to the originals. Cheers to Frasier. Better Call Saul to Breaking Bad.

Mechanically, the NFTs act as your membership card into HASH.

Holding one NFT grants access to the community, eligibility for missions, content competitions, giveaways, and reward campaigns. But missions will be separated into tiers depending on scale and impact. It is still in development, but in essence, smaller missions may only require holding one NFT and larger campaigns with bigger rewards may require holding more. The bigger the mission, the bigger the reward, the more passes you need.

The goal is to create a sustainable marketing engine where the community funds, fuels, and benefits from the growth of the movement itself.

I’ll break down the actual mission structure, verification systems, reward tiers, and more in my next post.

And P.s. If NFT’s just aren’t your thing, or you’re one of those who would never taint the DAG with “spam” but still want to support the initiative because you like what you see, you can just send 287 $KAS to the donation wallet here: https://t.co/3Ds4XwjiFj.
