A major network upgrade is approaching for Kaspa, a scalable proof-of-work blockchain, with the forthcoming Crescendo Hardfork.
Preparation for Crescendo Hardfork
Testnet-10 has been operating at 10 blocks per second since March 6, 2025, and is undergoing stress testing. The mainnet upgrade is planned for late April 2025.
10 BPS Scaling Plans
Kaspa performs testing of KRC-20 and KRC-721 token standards, as well as zkEVM integration for improved smart contract functionality on Layer 2.
Market Position and Community Outlook
Kaspa's 'Made in USA' tag on CoinMarketCap boosts visibility amid evolving U.S. policies towards cryptocurrencies.
Kaspa's planned April 2025 upgrade to 10 BPS could redefine Proof-of-Work scalability by blending speed and security.
