What is Kaspa

Kaspa (KAS) is a proof-of-work cryptocurrency whose blocks form a directed graph, a blockDAG, rather than a single chain. It grew out of research by Yonatan Sompolinsky and colleagues at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. The first code was written by the company DAGlabs, but the network launched as a community project with no company owning it. Mainnet went live on 7 November 2021 as a fair launch with no premine, presale or team allocation, so every coin has been mined. Community contributors develop it, funded by donations and community grants.

In Bitcoin, when two blocks are found almost simultaneously, one is discarded. Kaspa’s GHOSTDAG protocol keeps parallel blocks and puts them in one agreed order, so the network can produce blocks very often without losing security. Kaspa moved from one to ten blocks per second with the Crescendo hard fork on 5 May 2025, after the node was rewritten in Rust. Mining uses the kHeavyHash algorithm and is now dominated by specialized ASIC machines. The block reward shrinks monthly so that it halves each year, and total issuance is capped.

KAS is used for transfers that confirm in seconds, network fees and miner rewards. The Toccata hard fork on 30 June 2026 added covenants (programmable spending rules) and zero-knowledge proof verification to the base layer, a foundation for tokens and applications. Unlike Bitcoin, Kaspa has far more frequent blocks and a smooth monthly emission cut instead of a halving every four years. Unlike proof-of-stake networks such as Solana, its security comes from mining rather than staking.

What it’s used for

fast transfers and payments
miner rewards and network fees
covenants, tokens and apps since the Toccata upgrade

Risks

the block reward falls every month, so over time security depends more on fees; if miner income drops, hashrate may fall as well
there is no company or foundation with a budget: community contributors funded by donations and grants do the development, so timelines for upgrades such as the DAGKnight protocol are not guaranteed
base-layer programmability only arrived in 2026, so application tooling is young and new code may contain bugs

Questions

How much is Kaspa worth today?

As of November 11, 2026, Kaspa trades at $0.0295. Over 24 hours the price moved −0.71%, over 7 days −5.22%. The price on this page refreshes automatically.

How many KAS are in circulation?

27.8 B KAS are in circulation. Max supply is 28.7 B KAS, so 96.9% has been issued. The fully diluted value of all coins is $819.0M.

What is the Kaspa all-time high?

The all-time high of $0.2074 was set on July 31, 2024. The price is now 85.80% below it. The all-time low was $0.0001711 (May 26, 2022).

Can you mine Kaspa?

Yes, Kaspa is mined with the kHeavyHash algorithm. Mining shifted to ASIC machines in 2023, and they now supply nearly all of the hashrate, so mining on GPUs or CPUs is technically possible but usually costs more in electricity than it earns. You can mine solo through your own node or join a pool.

Does Kaspa have smart contracts?

Since the Toccata hard fork on 30 June 2026, the base layer supports covenants, rules that limit who can spend coins and how, along with verification of zero-knowledge proofs. More complex logic, including Ethereum-compatible contracts, is built on layer 2 networks that run on top of Kaspa.
