FAQ
Kaspa (KAS) is a proof-of-work (PoW) cryptocurrency that implements the GHOSTDAG protocol. Unlike traditional blockchains, GHOSTDAG does not orphan blocks created in parallel, but allows them to coexist and orders them in consensus. This makes Kaspa a blockDAG, a generalization of Nakamoto consensus. This unique approach aims to operate safely while maintaining high block rates and minimal confirmation times. Kaspa's implementation includes features such as Reachability to query the DAG's topology, Block data pruning, SPV proofs, and future subnetwork support which will make the implementation of layer 2 options much easier.
Kaspa operates on a proof-of-work consensus mechanism and uses an algorithm known as k-Heavyhash. This algorithm was chosen for its forward-compatibility with Photonic miners. Kaspa's unique monetary policy decreases emissions geometrically over time based on the 12-note scale of music, known as the chromatic phase. This policy dictates how many coins are minted per second regardless of the block rate. If Kaspa changes the block rate in the future, the reward will be adjusted accordingly to maintain the same emission rate. Kaspa's network aims to be safeguarded by miners through Proof of Work, aiming to maintain the integrity of the network.
