About Kaspa (KAS)
Kaspa is a Proof-of-work open-source, decentralized, and allegedly scalable Layer-1 that implements Phantom's GHOSTDAG protocol, a supposedly scalable generalization of Nakamoto consensus. This Nakamoto consensus generalization enables reportedly secure operation while maintaining high block rates and allegedly negligible confirmation times.
For the user and developer experience, integration with other web applications, and reportedly fast transaction settlement, Kaspa accomplishes instant ledger confirmation by reducing the latency of the consensus engine on transaction flow and user experience.
Peripheral nodes aid in mitigating frontrunning and MEV threats on the network. As a result, Kaspa states that it eliminates concerns about miners and trading bots attempting to manipulate transactions to gain an unfair advantage over ordinary users. Sub-second block times enable pre-trade privacy and stealth transactions, protecting users from such manipulations.
Unlike traditional blockchains, GHOSTDAG does not create orphan blocks in parallel but allows them to coexist and order them by consensus. Kaspa's implementation includes many features, such as accessibility to query DAG topologies, block data deletion, SPV proofing, and later subnet support, that will reportedly facilitate future implementations of Layer 2 solutions.
KAS is Kaspa's native coin and powers the network's ecosystem. KAS price is updated and available on Binance.
