100BPS is the future? 𐤊

[Dr Martin Hiesboeck @MHiesboeck]

This marks the end of the Bitcoin religion.

Meanwhile, $KAS impresses with new records and features. As do many other alt coin.

Bitcoin maxis are a dying breed.

[ᗪΛVIᗪ ∿ 𐤊 @davevw_]

Crescendo scaled Kaspa’s throughput. Toccata scales its utility.

Crescendo laid the foundation by increasing network capacity and preparing Kaspa for the next phase of growth.

Now Toccata takes the next step.

It’s not about making Kaspa faster. It’s about making Kaspa more useful.

More applications. More activity. More reasons to use the network every day.

The real value of a blockchain isn’t measured by how many transactions it can process - it’s measured by what people do with it.

Crescendo expanded the highway.

Toccata brings the traffic.

🤟 $KAS

[Travladd Crypto 𐤊 @OfficialTravlad]

The number 1 $KAS holder added to their position today, taking their total holdings to 1.41 billion Kaspa.

Equivalent to $43.6M

[MoonKing @MoonKing___]

I'm not buying $KAS hoping to get a huge pump next week

I'm playing the long game here because when people will have forgotten about the great Kaspa run of 2023, I'll have my bags ready

The tech will be far beyond what it is now, and we'll be back in a bull market

Imagine 👀

[Hans Moog @hus_qy]

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.

[Travladd Crypto 𐤊 @OfficialTravlad]

Huge $KAS buying opportunity right now? The bottom came in February in my opinion, maybe a double bottom but it seems way too undervalued here.

Toccata isn’t just another upgrade. It’s the beginning of Kaspa’s transition from a payment-focused chain into a broader programmable ecosystem.

Toccata introduces covenants, which are programmable rules that control how coins can be spent in the future. Think of them as smart spending conditions that unlock advanced use cases like vaults, escrow, automated payments, token systems, and more.

The upgrade also adds zero-knowledge (ZK) verification tools, allowing developers to build powerful applications that can prove information is valid without revealing the underlying data.

What makes this important is that Kaspa is doing this while staying true to its high-throughput Proof-of-Work design. Instead of copying existing smart contract platforms, it’s building a new path focused on scalability and efficiency.

Toccata lays the foundation for:
✅ Native programmable assets
✅ Advanced financial applications
✅ Secure cross-chain bridges
✅ Future ZK-powered ecosystems
✅ More developer activity on Kaspa

This is the real deal.

[Kaspa Kii @KaspaKii]

We still need Fireblocks to integrate Kaspa it’s a more important catalyst.

Fireblocks is the dominant enterprise-grade custody and wallet infrastructure platform used by hundreds of institutions, banks, hedge funds, and a huge chunk of centralised exchanges.

It handles secure key management (via their MPC-CMP tech), policy engines, and operational workflows for thousands of assets across 150+ blockchains. Without native Kaspa support:

• Many exchanges literally can’t add KAS easily or safely at scale because they rely on Fireblocks for hot/cold wallets, transfers, and regulatory compliance.

• Institutions (think hedge funds, ETFs, or corporate treasuries) won’t touch it yet in size if their existing Fireblocks setup doesn’t support it out of the box custom integrations are expensive, slow, and introduce extra risk.

This is a roadblock. Several exchanges have said they want to list Kaspa but are waiting on Fireblocks. It was apparently on their roadmap/to-do list last year, but it hasn’t shipped yet.

This is exactly the kind of “unsexy but critical” infrastructure play that separates projects stuck in retail circles from ones that unlock real institutional capital.

Copper’s ClearLoop is a partial workaround for some OTC/trading flows, but it’s not a full replacement for broad custody + exchange support.

But with Kaspa maturing with Toccata the case for integration is greatly enhanced.

[Kaspa Kii @KaspaKii]

@Cryptopumpzzzz Yes there’s all this and more reasons to come. Including Continuous Identity Attestation and Ai provenance for regulatory compliance. Kaspa is the perfect fit.

[Zealous Swap @ZealousSwap]

Another month, another burn.

[Kasplex @kasplex]

Something big is coming to the Kasplex infrastructure. ⛓️

We’re about to lower the barrier for decentralization, making it easier than ever for anyone to run their own node.

Stay tuned for the technical upgrade soon!

[Kaskad @AppKaskad]

To all @KastleWallet mobile users, complete Kas -to-iKAS bridge and then -> Supply iKAS as collateral + borrow USDC/USDT on Kaskad, directly via the wallet app.

It only takes a few minutes to be all set, with new liquidity in USDC/USDT now available in your wallet.

Shoot-out to @elperorr for the nice breakdown video!

[GiaVV𐤊 @giavviola]

Something interesting happened over the past few days for DeFi on #Kaspa 👀

@AppKaskad is now integrated directly into the Explore section of @KastleWallet.

Which means:
without leaving the wallet (even on mobile) you can:
✅️ use $KAS (iKAS after bridging) as collateral
✅️ borrow stablecoins like USDC/USDT
✅️ put your assets to work in a simple, seamless way

I’m seeing more and more people trying it and sharing feedback, a good sign the ecosystem is actually maturing, not just talking.
Kaskad brings lending to @Igra_Labs (Kaspa’s EVM L2), and this integration makes the whole experience way more user-friendly.
If you’ve been following @kaspaunchained for a while, you know these are the best moments: less hype, more real products.

Kaspa keeps building. One block at a time. 𐤊

Update: Testnet 10 underwent the Toccata hardfork about 30mins ago and everything’s still running like clockwork. Transition was smooth and seamless.

This seamlessness is the standard that kaspa devs set. It’s easy to take it for granted so I want to take this moment to recognize the effort and due diligence that went into making this happen @michaelsuttonil @OriNewman @Max143672 @IzioDev @FreshAir08 @manyfest_ @hus_qy (and sorry if I missed anyone)

Mainnet HF soon
