Heavy emissions. Surprisingly little selling pressure. $SOQ 👀
My take? At this ridiculously low valuation, miners may prefer stacking to selling for pennies.
New supply doesn’t automatically hit the market. Holders decide.
If demand keeps absorbing what sellers offer, this could get interesting fast.

The community has spoken! After an open vote lasting more than 12 hours, donors chose Aveiro. I covered the remaining amount, and the StagHunt campaign reached its target. The funds will be used to take the Kaspa Rally Car to the Aveiro MotorShow Rally Stage on 5–6 December 2026.
Attached is a copy of the Aveiro MotorShow entry form, dated 26 October 2026. The KAS funds are held in the kas.coffee/kasrallyteam wallet, where the community can view them.
We’ve achieved our goal: getting the car racing this year and giving people the chance to see it in person. Thank you to everyone who made this possible!

Kaspa's token standard is now final.
KCC-1, KCC-2 and KCC-20 were finalized on October 21. Michael Sutton co authored all three. Ori Newman co authored KCC-1 and KCC-20. Their KIP-20 covenant IDs and KIP-17 opcodes went live in Toccata.
Five authority schemes. One shared ABI. One token covenant. Here is what it means 🧵

This description of DAGKnight completely misses the point.
DAGKnight improves confirmation speed, NOT throughput. But the bigger innovation challenges something most cryptocurrencies take for granted which is a reliably connected internet.
Imagine an undersea cable gets severed, splitting the network into two disconnected regions.
Bitcoin: Both sides mine competing chains, and transactions on the losing chain are reversed.
Ethereum: Without two-thirds of validator stake participating, finality stops.
DAGKnight: Kaspa can merge blocks from both sides back into one blockDAG, preserving valid, nonconflicting transactions from both regions rather than simply discarding an entire competing branch like Bitcoin.
This is about fundamentally stronger consensus, not just speed.
Arguably the only cryptocurrency that can handle WW3 conditions. This is exactly what Yonatan spoke about in his DAGKnight presentation.

Building something for NeuralKey holders this weekend: on-chain ownership verification inside YKey Genesis, so holders unlock their perks just by proving they hold the NFT. No signatures beyond login, no transactions.Everything works up to the last step. We verify ownership against the KRC-721 indexers, then cross-check chain freshness with api.kaspa.org.
Since this morning that API returns data ~23h old on /info/blockdag and errors on other endpoints, so our check refuses to grant anything on stale data (by design).@kaspaunchained is anyone aware of an issue with api.kaspa.org today, and is there an ETA?
Happy to share details if useful. Not blocking the launch, just want holders to have a smooth first experience. 🧬

Hello, Kaspians! 🏁💚
Today we tested the new ECU tune on the Kaspa Rally Car, and the difference I felt was huge: much more low-end torque and a much sharper response!
Before, the engine only seemed to wake up at high revs. Now it pulls from low revs all the way to the limiter. When left-foot braking, as soon as I release the brake, the car pulls straight away. We’re still fine-tuning everything, but today’s testing definitely put a big smile on my face! 😁
Tomorrow there’s more work to do: adjust the hydraulic handbrake and realign the car, reviewing the rear camber and toe to make the rear end more predictable when it starts sliding.
I didn’t push too hard today… this clutch has definitely seen better days 😅
If we manage to complete the StagHunt, it’s going to be a real race against time: remove the gearbox for an overhaul, replace the clutch while it’s out, and strip down the differential to switch to a 4.44 final drive. Even with the 3.91, the gearing still feels too tall for what we need.
Every test shows us what has improved and what still needs work. We’re getting closer, and none of this would have been possible without you.
A heartfelt thank-you to everyone donating, sharing, helping and continuing to believe in this project. 💚🏁

Michael Sutton is building Argent — the AI-agent programming language for Kaspa
Kaspa core developer Michael Sutton is shipping Argent: an actor-based language and compiler designed so both humans and AI agents can build complex on-chain applications on Kaspa’s L1 covenants.
Argent lets you compose multiple contracts, link apps atomically, and expose clean interfaces — all compiling down to auditable SilverScript that runs natively on Kaspa’s BlockDAG. No separate VM. No trusted bridge. Just pure PoW consensus enforcing the rules.
Sutton put it plainly: giving agents a clean language model is the difference between usage and no usage. Humans and AI both thrive with higher-order abstractions. Argent is that layer — so agents can post tasks, manage state, compose with other apps, and settle payments without wrestling raw opcodes or fragile off-chain glue.
Why this matters for market share:
• AI agents need fast, cheap, deterministic settlement. Kaspa already has 10 BPS and micro-fees.
• They need enforceable rules and atomic multi-app composition. Toccata covenants + Argent deliver that on L1.
• They need something they can actually read, generate, and verify. Argent’s actor model and open interfaces are built for that.
While other chains still bolt agent tooling onto slow or custodial stacks, Kaspa is making the base layer agent-native. Argent is the missing piece that turns “programmable PoW” into “the place AI agents actually build and transact.”
The rails are live. The language is being built for the machines. That’s how Kaspa takes share in the agent economy.

kaspa’s growth in 2026.
seeing $KAS turn into one of the most technologically advanced Layer 1s on earth in 2026, when 4 years ago it was seen as a mere replacement for $ETH mining after it transitioned to PoS, makes me feel like a proud dad.
Kaspa has officially evolved beyond P2P payments:
>programmable Layer-1 (Toccata)
>native fungible tokens (KCC-20)
>native KAS privacy research on testnet
on-chain memecoin launchpads (Kaspaseal)
> building toward a programmable PoW ecosystem without switching to PoS.
adoption is near.

I think in the next few months we will see the most crucial moment for $KAS, when it comes to adoption. Let's work together, for real utility.

KaspaDollar is the first decentralized stablecoin on the $KAS Network
This is a MASSIVE development in the #Kaspa ecosystem
Great work @asaefstroem in leading this initiative!
The #Kaspa community keeps building, even in the depths of a bear market. Bullish on the $KAS community and network
Today we are introducing KaspaDollar, an initiative led by core developer @asaefstroem to build the first decentralized stablecoin on the $KAS network.
The developments around @kccforum and the Toccata hardfork have considerably widened what Kaspa is capable of. Capability alone, however, does not make an ecosystem. Decentralized finance requires a unit of account that holds its value, and until Kaspa has a stablecoin of its own, every application built on it will remain dependent on assets issued elsewhere.
The design we intend to follow is the decentralized, overcollateralized stablecoin: a pattern whose security properties have been examined and tested across the industry for the better part of a decade. With the support of the core team, we consider the conditions right to bring it to Kaspa.
Realizing this requires development, an independent audit, further research, and the operational work of taking a protocol from specification to production. To fund it, we are opening a fundraiser with a target of 5,000,000 KAS.
Contributions are made directly to the fundraising address published on the website. Should the target not be reached by 1 January 2027, every contribution will be returned to the address from which it was sent.
Up until that point, this account will share the plans, details and progress of the work as it develops.

Well prophesied
My prophecy: Kaspa core will keep researching, budling and delivering. Yonatan will continue to lead it in terms of vision, far-reaching long-term research and short-term endless day-to-day brainstorming. Core R&D will continue to scale and expand to wider and wider circles. Builders and developers will keep joining L2 testnets and build dapps which utilize Kaspa’s inherent superiorities. Kaspa’s marketing will decentralize more and more. There will be no central voice. As part of the many voices, core members will find ways to communicate their vision and nuanced discussions to the broader crypto community. Truthfulness will prevail. Kaspa core will identify with people who actively contribute, build, research and think about Kaspa from the moment they wake up until the moment they fall asleep. Educators, pedagogues and evangelizers will do what they do best and communicate at different levels based on their knowledge and expertise. I will keep researching, thinking, developing and posting about Kaspa and speak as directly, accurately and truthfully as I can. I love you all (not a prophecy). We just started.

Toccata is such a crazy unlock. Programmable money with a programmable settlement layer right on L1, and because it rides on Kaspa it’s fast and secure from the root. Fascinating to build on: every wall I’ve hit so far was a budget, not a missing feature. Great work from everyone involved. KCC20 is the tip of the iceberg.

Mastercard is working on x402 payments for AI agents, with support for different payment systems.
Would be interesting to see Mastercard support Kaspa x402 too. @elldeeone
But they'll probably ignore Kaspa, like everyone else...
What happens when AI agents need to pay for the services they use?
We’re working with @Mastercard and an ecosystem of partners to help answer that question through Mastercard Agent Pay for Machines, enabling trusted agent-to-agent payments within defined budgets and permissions.

This is a really important milestone because it allows developers to finally start building "composable" apps.
KCC means "Kaspa Calls for Conventions" and it is an effort to define standards that can be shared across the ecosystem.
For apps to be composable, it is not enough that they can call each others functions and observe the results, but they also need to be able to "understand" the data they see.
Instead of having each app manually implement the "proprietary language" of all the other apps, these KCC's establish a "common language" that is understood by everybody.
So while this doesn't introduce new "on-chain" features, it enables developers to write apps that can be composed without the apps having to know about each other.
There will of course be additional standards in the future but these three are arguably the most important ones because they cover the foundations and how tokens / assets are modeled (which is essential for DeFi and anything related to decentralized governance).
Kaspa is growing up so fast! 😱
PS: If you are building on Kaspa, please drop me a DM - I would love to hear about your project!
Greetings $KAS. KCC-1, KCC-2 and KCC-20 are now Final, meaning they are ready for full adoption across the ecosystem.
We invite Kaspa builders to join the public KCC channel to ask questions, get support, discuss implementations and share what you build.
Come build with us.
