Bitcoin is too slow! And they used Lightning Network. That’s not a flex. This is a flex: In August 2025, 5 $KAS travelled across 7 countries; Ireland to USA, Brazil, Nigeria, Romania, Malaysia, Australia, and back to Ireland. Fast, cheap, secure, decentralised, all on Layer 1 POW. Kaspa is endgame.

📊 Kaspa Network Daily Activity Snapshot — Jan 08, 2026 Kaspa enters a consolidation phase today, with cooling short-term activity across the ecosystem while miner participation and network security continue to strengthen: ⚡ Throughput: ~10 TPS (1h avg: 10.7) ↓ 🧱 Block Production: ~9.5 BPS (1h avg: 10.0) ↓ 🌐 Network Nodes: 694 public nodes ↓ ⛏️ Miners: 238 recently active miners ↑ 💪 Network Hashrate: 459.0 PH/s ↑ strong recovery 🧾 Mempool: 0 transactions waiting → fully uncongested 📦 Supply & Emissions • Circulating Supply: 27.09B KAS (94.39% mined) ↑ • Current Block Reward: 3.46 KAS • Next Reduction: 3.27 KAS in ~26d 8h 📈 Core On-Chain Activity • Total Transactions: 592,869,278 ↑ +143,478 • Transactions (last hour): 7,795 ↓ • Active Addresses (all time): 94,735,172 ↑ +2,284 • Active Addresses (last hour): 656 ↓ 🧩 Kaspa Ecosystem Activity (Last Hour) • Kasplex L2: 163 transactions ↓ • KRC-20 tokens: 42 transactions ↓ • KRC-721 (NFTs): 5 transactions • Kasia: 0 interactions • K-Social: 27 interactions ↓ • Kaspeak: 0 interactions 📊 Payload Distribution Ecosystem activity cooled across most verticals today, while base-layer usage and hashrate growth continue — a typical rotation phase following several high-intensity days. 💰 Market Overview • Price: $0.047 USD ↓ • Market Cap: $1.25B ↓ • Fully Diluted Valuation: $1.34B ↓ • CoinGecko Rank: #88 ↓ 📉 Short-term cooling is visible across price and activity. 🧠 Rising hashrate, higher miner participation, and steady lifetime growth point to structural strength beneath the consolidation. Less noise. More security. BlockDAG holding the line. 🟦 #Kaspa #KAS #KaspaNetwork #BlockDAG #Kasplex #KRCTokens #Web3 #OnChainData #CryptoMetrics #Decentralization #PoW #Layer1

HumPool and ViaBTC were the two largest Kaspa miners over the past 7 days, each responsible for around 23% of blocks mined. During the recent negative price action, Kaspa’s network hash rate dropped below 500 PH/s as some hash power went offline. This kind of pullback usually reflects short-term miner economics rather than any issue with the network. Hash rate tends to follow price, and it often recovers once conditions stabilize.

Kaspa’s runtime architecture achieves scalability not by optimizing block-level throughput, but by rethinking the role of blocks entirely. Instead of treating state transitions as discrete batches that must be processed sequentially, Kaspa models them as a continuous stream of causally-related transactions, with blocks serving only as logical markers that define the boundaries of possible reorgs. This shift in perspective moves the performance bottleneck away from "how fast can we process everything inside a block" toward "how can we parallelize all currently known tasks across the entire DAG". When a block contains a spike of non-parallelizable work, traditional blockchains must stall until the block is fully processed. Kaspa does not. Because unrelated transactions can be scheduled immediately - even those belonging to future blocks - the system avoids idle CPU cycles and eliminates the classic straggler problem. Most existing DLT architectures tightly couple block production with state commitments, proofs, or other finalization steps, making their execution model inherently sequential. Even if they support some parallelism within a block, they still wait for a block to finish before moving on to the next one. This introduces unnecessary latency and forces the runtime to juggle responsibilities that are orthogonal to efficient workload distribution. Kaspa’s strict separation of concerns allows the entire execution model to collapse into a minimal, expressive, and highly generic framework - small enough to run any ACL (access-control list) enabled VM at essentially bare-metal performance. Its design models causal dependencies at the lowest hardware-relevant level, enabling an execution flow that is: - completely lock-free - free of WAL flushes or global sync barriers - based entirely on eventual consistency This results in a simpler, more scalable, and far more hardware-efficient architecture than anything deployed in blockchain systems today. In effect, Kaspa does for distributed ledgers what TensorFlow and CUDA Graphs did for machine learning: it exposes a parallel execution model that can scale seamlessly with modern hardware, turning theoretical throughput into practical reality (the 64000 TPS that Solana achieves in the lab let's bring that to practice). I am extremely excited about this as this is exactly what I always wanted to build with IOTA and now it's finally done. We are still working on implementing the higher levels of abstraction like designing a capability based linear type system abstraction for state management and resource access that gets rid of the need for manual capabilities wiring like in SUI and there is still a bit of work left but I don't think that you will ever be able to build a more scalable architecture than directly modeling the causal structure of state changes down to the lowest hardware layer. Kaspa is going to melt faces my friends and it's going to be so much better that it will be impossible to ignore! And it's such a simple API with Rayon level abstraction ... I am seriously getting a nerd-gasm just looking at the code 😅: https://t.co/aLvm843GiA This goes out to KEF and the entire community: Thank you so much for allowing me to take part in this journey - this really feels like coming home! 🥰

On October 5, 2025, the Kaspa network processed over 158 million transactions in a single day, nearly matching Bitcoin’s total transactions for the entire past year. According to data from YCharts and Glassnode, the Bitcoin network processed approximately 160 million transactions between October 5, 2024, and October 4, 2025 (inclusive).

Kasplex has released a Docker-based deployment for EVM L2 testnet nodes in Syncer mode. This provides: •Streamlined setup with Docker Compose •Automated management via Makefile scripts •Secure JWT-based authentication •Reliable blockchain data synchronization on testnet Why it matters: running nodes becomes significantly easier and safer, enabling developers to join the Kasplex testnet without complex setup. This is an important step toward broader testing, stability, and adoption of Kasplex’s zkEVM Layer 2 infrastructure. Another step on the road to mainnet release.
