KBeam is a Kaspa-based messenger and payment app.
Kaspa is the source of truth for KBeam. The Kaspa network provides the base layer for wallet identity, payments, contact discovery, and reliable on-chain fallback.
On top of that, KBeam runs its own application-layer messaging protocol, designed specifically for fast, private communication.
Messages are end-to-end encrypted, and push notifications are encrypted as well. Push is used for instant delivery, while the chain/indexer path provides reliability and catch-up when a device was offline or push was unavailable.
KBeam is not built on Signal, Matrix, XMPP, or Telegram. It is a custom protocol built around Kaspa, encrypted messaging, encrypted push, and decentralized fallback.
🚀 KBeam Android Beta is now live!
Hey Fam,
We finally made it – the public Beta for Android is now open for everyone! 🎉
Anyone who wants to test it can grab the app right away:
Android Open Beta →👉 https://t.co/tQEEKaJr57
The iOS Beta has also just been updated and is still available under your old test account.
https://t.co/bgianrLDFX
For those with an old installation: You can use the migration assistant or simply create a fresh wallet – whatever you prefer.
It’s a wonderful way to support transactions on KASPA and pay the miners simply by using the private messenger.
We’re really looking forward to your feedback. Report bugs, tell us what’s working well or what’s still missing.
Thanks for testing with us.
This is just the beginning. 💪

A message from Kaspa Founder Yonatan Sompolinsky:
On the question of whether AI will displace crypto as the next major technology — they are not competitors. They are complements. Two fundamentally different forces shaping the future.
Crypto is about scarcity.
Everything should be hardcoded. Everything cryptographically signed. Immutable. Verifiable. Trustless.
AI is about infinite abundance.
Creativity at lightspeed. Intelligence without limits.
And that’s exactly why crypto becomes more critical in an agentic world — where autonomous AI agents are the primary economic actors.
These agents have:
• No institutions
• No traditions
• No social pressure
• No shared history to build trust
They will need bulletproof coordination infrastructure. Scarcity engines. Cryptographic truth. Permissionless markets that can’t be gamed or censored.
That’s Kaspa’s domain.
A high-throughput, low-fee, scalable BlockDAG where millions of agents can transact value, settle data, and coordinate at machine speed — without intermediaries or trust.
AI will generate the abundance.
Crypto will secure the scarcity and coordination layer on top.
The two together? That’s not competition.
That’s the foundation of the next civilization.
The agentic economy is coming.
Kaspa is ready.
— Yonatan Sompolinsky

Igra node operators and attesters: Mainnet Toccata (KIP-21) node upgrade is here!
Two phases, both required.
Phase one, now: please pull v3.0 and move the backend (kaspad/reth) to 3.0, workers stay on 2.3 (see full guide below). Safe to run today and through the fork, so do it early. A node still on the old backend at activation falls off the chain and stalls.
Activation at fixed Kaspa DAA score, estimated around June 30. We'll signal when it's crossed.
Phase two, after activation: upgrade the workers to 3.0. This is mandatory for writes to function properly, especially for attesters. Don't enable early either, only once you're confirmed past the boundary.
Attesters: it is recommended to pause attestations before applying phase 2.

Please reach out with any questions.

@KaspaSilver@KasSigner We will check it out soon. We have quite a pack roadmap for now, but this is something we're going to push forward sooner than later.
“Kaspa gets smart contracts on June 30.”
🟠 Needs context.
A better sentence:
Toccata brings native L1 covenant programming and based-ZK infrastructure to Kaspa.
That is real programmability.
It is not the same as a mature Ethereum-style app environment.
If a post does not say which layer, which feature, and which receipt, treat it as incomplete.
Precision is not bearish.
Precision is credibility.

🔥 Emoji names just shipped on INS! 🔥@IgraNameService
Any emoji is now a fair-game .igra name on
@Igra_Labs L2 — first come, first served.
Examples mintable RIGHT NOW (if no one's beaten you to them):
• 🔥.igra · 🚀.igra · 💎.igra
• ⚽.igra · 👑.igra · 🦄.igra
• 👨👩👧👦.igra (yes, ZWJ family compounds work)
• 🇺🇸.igra · 🇬🇧.igra · 🇯🇵.igra (flag pairs work
Mint: https://t.co/Qg8rQ8gDu1
(Wallet teams: emoji input "just works" — our resolver handles the Punycode encoding, you just forward the name as-is.)
We hear the Kaspa community and understand why dynamic address support is important. kaspa:native is technically different from Bitcoin-like UTXO networks such as BTC, LTC, DOGE, etc. Its architecture requires a separate implementation approach, so this feature cannot be added in the same way as for other UTXO-based networks.
That’s why dynamic address support is being rolled out step by step. We started with networks where the implementation of this feature is the same, while Kaspa requires additional dedicated work and validation before it can be delivered properly.
Kaspa is a priority and the team is actively working through the technical scope right now. We’re not putting a firm date on it yet because we want to deliver it right, but the Kaspa community hasn’t been forgotten and we’ll come back with concrete timing once it’s confirmed.
New dApp UI is out!
Improvements:
- Dark mode
- Asset highlights: see each new yield opportunity on Kaskad live
- Your Position now details & consolidates all your positions in one place with headroom, HF, estimated earnings (daily and 30D) and costs (daily & 30D)
- Supply page now displays remaining liquidity available for each asset
- Interest rate model details for each supported assets on Kaskad (slope/Kink/optimal utilization & risk parameters/ revenue split and overall asset mode)
- Governance parameters are now completely discoverable even during closed voting windows: click & check how you'll be able to adjust each of them before the windows opens again.
- Total stKSKD value in the Staking module is now displayed and expressed in $ terms
Big shout-out to @MonsieurMarius@KaiReytsu and @BagayokoJack for putting this together!
Happy lending on https://t.co/1lOpEQ7FJm!
My final Berlin event at @w3_hub before heading home: kaspa:native × @Igra_Labs
Loved the energy, the community, and the conversations around what’s being built.
Glad to be here with @Tangem - crypto is always better when people build together ❤️
