I will tighten the Kaspa pitch. Quickly check current facts so the rewrite stays accurate. What if proof-of-work did not have to be slow?
That is the bet Kaspa (kaspa:native) is making.
Classic PoW chains force miners onto one block at a time. When two honest blocks land together, one gets thrown away. Kaspa does not do that. Kaspa uses a BlockDAG and GHOSTDAG: parallel blocks stay in the ledger and are ordered. Extra work adds security instead of becoming orphans.
Live today:
- Proof-of-work (kHeavyHash)
- ~10 blocks per second (~100 ms block times)
- Fast inclusion, confirmation stacking in seconds
- Fair launch in 2021: no ICO, no premine, no insider allocation
PoW did not have to stay stuck at 10-minute blocks. Kaspa is what a chain looks like when the bottleneck is the chain structure, not the work itself.
kaspa:native is one to watch.
