Kaspa advances within the blockchain realm with its Crescendo Hardfork development. This upgrade seeks to increase the network's processing speed from 1 to 10 blocks per second.
Crescendo Hardfork and Its Goals
The Crescendo Hardfork aims to increase Kaspa's block speed to 10 blocks per second, resulting in faster transaction processing and securing the project's position among other PoW blockchains.
Successful TN10 Activation
Recently, Kaspa announced the complete transformation of Testnet 10 to the speed of 10 blocks per second. This milestone is critically important following the Hardfork activation on March 7, 2025. Developer Coderofstuff confirmed the correctness of changes performed, including validation of initial block download and transaction ordering.
Future Plans and Prospects
With the upgrade achieving 10 BPS, Kaspa aims to introduce new innovations planned in its roadmap. It is expected that the full mainnet activation will occur by late April or early May 2025.
The TN10 upgrade establishes Kaspa as one of the fastest PoW blockchains thanks to the GHOSTDAG protocol, which allows for parallel creation and confirmation of blocks. This opens new opportunities for the platform's growth and its global decentralized infrastructure.
