Kaspa is gaining momentum in the blockchain sector by introducing the Crescendo update, which boosts network speed to 10 blocks per second.
Crescendo Update: A New Development Stage
Kaspa announced the launch of the Crescendo update, aiming to increase network speed from 1 to 10 blocks per second. This update is based on Proof-of-Work technology and is implemented within the L1 protocol.
TN10 Transition: A Milestone Achievement
The protocol recently announced on X a full transition to 10 blocks per second on Testnet 10. This is crucial for the blockchain following the hardfork activation on March 7, 2025. Developer 'Coderofstuff' verified the correctness of the update's logic, relating to Initial Block Download, post-pruning behavior, and transaction ordering.
Future After the Update: What to Expect
Following the successful increase to 10 BPS, Kaspa plans to work on other unique innovations outlined in its roadmap. It includes a feature freeze expected to complete by March 20. The primary hardfork version is set for completion by the end of March, with mainnet activation planned for late April/early May 2025.
The organization is confidently moving towards the goals of the next stage, promising to make Kaspa one of the fastest Proof-of-Work blockchain networks.
