🔥179M transactions moved through the #Kaspa DAG in a community-run test. Thanks, @Kaspadrome For context, many top networks process on the order of: • Bitcoin: a few hundred thousand transactions per day • Ethereum: roughly 1M to 1.5M per day This wasn’t a daily average. It was a concentrated load, run voluntarily, on a live network. Everyone claims high TPS, but usually it’s testnets, incentives and/or controlled environments. What’s useful is what it shows: • how the DAG handles continuous activity • how well parallel blocks stay coordinated • how stable confirmations remain under pressure It’s a practical look at how the system behaves when activity compresses. Why this matters: Modern systems are trending toward continuous, high-frequency data exchange: • AI agents coordinating and settling micro-interactions • machine-to-machine payments and logging • global services operating across time zones with no downtime • enterprise systems requiring fast, reliable finality It isn’t just about peak speed. It’s about whether a network can stay responsive as activity becomes constant. Sustained throughput becomes a baseline requirement. And this is where it gets more interesting. Speed and Throughput at this level, combined with real-time decentralization, starts to align with what modern systems require. #StudyKaspa

The Kaspa community just pushed 179M transactions through the DAG on a community experiment. No incentives. No airdrops. Just people who genuinely want to see this technology succeed.

The biggest marketing tool in crypto is community word of mouth. $KAS does not need Coinbase or Binance, it just needs every country to be able to buy it, eg. Kraken for USA and Gate in China. Kaspa broke 5 billion without B/C and more people know about it now, than then.

Following up on the “digital commodities” discussion, it’s worth understanding that these assets are not all built the same way. They may share a market classification, but the underlying systems, governance models, and levels of control vary quite a bit. We're sure some of these may belong in other categories, or a more "in-between" space, but we'll start here, none-the-less. A simple way to look at it: 🌳 More Decentralized / Protocol-Led Systems These tend to have: • No central issuer controlling supply • Open mining or broad validator distribution • Development that is coordinated, but not enforced Examples: • Bitcoin • Litecoin • Dogecoin • Bitcoin Cash #Kaspa fits within this category, combining open participation and no central issuer with contributor-led development that does not control the network, and a design focused on real-time decentralization 🕴️Hybrid / Foundation-Guided Ecosystems These are functional networks with active ecosystems, where: • Foundations or core teams coordinate development and direction • Roadmaps are more structured • Validator sets or governance are more defined Examples: • Ethereum • Cardano • Polkadot • Avalanche • Solana • Tezos • Chainlink These networks operate with real infrastructure and decentralization at the network layer, with development more tightly coordinated by core contributors. 🏦 Corporate or Heavily Directed Networks Here the structure is closer to a product with a token attached, where development and direction are more tightly coupled to identifiable organizations: • XRP (closely tied to Ripple Labs) • Hedera (governing council model) • Stellar (historically strong foundation influence) • Aptos (VC-backed, team-driven) 🎡 Meme / Market-Driven Assets These are widely distributed, but not structured around deep protocol design: • Shiba Inu This isn’t a ranking. It’s a structural lens. Most of these networks have core contributors and active development groups. That’s expected. The distinction is not whether a team exists, but what role it plays. Some coordinate development and propose direction. Some define and steer roadmaps more tightly. Some are closely tied to organizations shaping outcomes. From a broader perspective, the gaps across these categories tend to show up in real-world use: • how open participation remains as systems scale • how decisions are adopted across the network • how quickly and reliably the system can settle transactions These are the conditions that determine whether a network can operate as global infrastructure. That context matters when thinking about where things are going. #Kaspa has active core contributors and researchers coordinating development. At the same time, the network itself does not depend on a central group to enforce outcomes. - Participation remains open. - Upgrades rely on adoption. - The system continues to move toward higher throughput and real-time settlement. That direction aligns closely with the original intent behind Bitcoin, where the goal was a system that could operate without centralized control while remaining usable at scale. So while more assets may continue to receive commodity classification, the more useful question is how these systems are structured and how they perform under real-world conditions. That is where the conversation should be heading.

@RyanSeanAdams makes some solid points here. Clearer categories help, but the underlying system design still matters more than the label. On the surface, these all look like the same category. Under the hood, they’re very different machines. 🚨 The SEC and CFTC Are Circling Around “Digital Commodities” This list is making the rounds showing 16 crypto assets being treated as commodities: #BTC, @ethereum, @solana , @Cardano, @avax, @Polkadot, @chainlink, @litecoin, @dogecoin #BitcoinCash, @Ripple, @StellarOrg, @hedera, @tezos, @Aptos, @ShibainuCoin The takeaway being shared is that these are now “commodities” rather than securities. A good signal. That direction is real, but it is not coming from a single definitive ruling. What’s happening is a gradual alignment across actions from the SEC, the CFTC, and court decisions. Over time, more assets are being treated as commodities in practice. That matters. It reduces some uncertainty around how these assets are viewed in markets. It does not mean they are all built the same way. Across this list, there is a wide range of structures. Some networks operate without a central issuer and rely on open participation. Some are guided by foundations or core development groups that shape direction and upgrades. Some remain closely tied to companies or governing councils. Some are primarily market-driven tokens with limited underlying architecture. All of them can sit under a commodity label. The label reflects how regulators see trading activity. It does not describe how control, governance, or issuance actually work. That distinction is worth keeping in view as this narrative gains traction. For #Kaspa, this is relatively straightforward. Kaspa would be viewed as a commodity under the same lens. Proof-of-work, no premine, no central issuer, and open participation all align with how other commodity-classified networks are being treated. At the same time, classification is not where the focus is. The more relevant question is what kind of system is being built and what it enables in practice. Kaspa is oriented around real-time settlement in a decentralized environment. That includes high block throughput, parallel block processing, and maintaining open participation at the network level. The idea often described as #RealTimeDecentralization is simply this: A network where transactions confirm quickly, participation remains open, and outcomes do not depend on a central coordinating group. That leads into the broader concept that has been forming around it: #SovereigntyasaService. In practical terms, individuals, businesses, and systems can transact, settle, and operate directly on the network without relying on an intermediary to validate or finalize those actions. The current regulatory conversation is working toward clearer categories. That process will continue and likely expand. At the same time, the underlying technology is moving toward systems that can operate independently of those categories. So while the market debates which tokens are commodities, Kaspa is focused on building systems where that distinction carries less weight over time. If a network can deliver: 🌐global, real-time settlement 🙋🏽open participation ❌no reliance on intermediaries ❌no permission layer then classification becomes secondary to capability. So what? The commodity discussion helps explain how regulators and markets are interpreting these assets today. It is not a reliable measure of what these networks can actually do. The more useful signal is whether a network can support open participation, consistent settlement, and meaningful scale under real-world conditions. That is where long-term differentiation will come from. The world does not need a list of government-recognized tokens. It needs infrastructure that functions on its own terms. Real-time decentralization. That is the shift. And that is the standard systems will increasingly be evaluated against. What matters is not the label on the vehicle. It’s the engine, the design, and whether it can actually perform in the real world. Continued in Thread

RYAN SΞAN ADAMS - rsa.eth 🦄@RyanSAdams

THEY DID IT. The SEC and CFTC just dropped a landmark document that officially classifies crypto assets. They're actually telling us which crypto assets are securities and which ones aren't - by name! THIS IS SOMETHING GENSLER REFUSED TO DO (he focused on prosecuting crypto out of existence) This rule doc gives crypto many of the benefits of the clarity bill - it lifts us out of the gray market - it gives every asset a path. It's almost like the Clarity act just passed by way of regulator. (of course, the actual clarity act will harden all this into legislation and make it irreversible in the event we get another Gensler, we still want it) This rule says there's 5 categories for crypto assets: 1) Digital Commodities - assets tied to a functional, decentralized crypto system (e.g., BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, ADA, DOGE). Not securities. (yes, they name them on page 14) 2) Digital Collectibles - NFTs, meme coins, artwork tokens, in-game items. Not securities (fractionalized collectibles may be an exception). 3) Digital Tools - membership tokens, credentials, domain names (e.g., ENS). Not securities. 4) Stablecoins - payment stablecoins under the GENIUS Act are not securities. Other stablecoins, it depends. 5) Digital Securities - tokenized versions of traditional securities. Like tokenized stocks. Always securities. Amazing! This makes so much sense I can't believe it's coming from a regulator. No more enforcement threats to Ethereum developers and crypto exchanges. How about the Howey test? More common sense! If an issuer makes specific promises of managerial efforts from which buyers expect profits, the offering is a security until those promises are fulfilled. Then it's a commodity. The asset itself was never the security, the deal around it was. (E.g. XRP was a security pre launch, became a commodity after). How about stuff like staking and mining? Mining? Not a securities transaction. Staking? Also not a securities transaction, that includes custodial and liquid staking even with LSTs! How about wrapping BTC? Not a securities transaction. Airdrops? NOT SECURITIES. NO MORE GEO BANS PROTECTING AMERICANS from free airdrops. Remember this is a joint doc from the SEC and CFTC, They're actually cooperating on this, no internal strife, this is binding to both. SEC regulates $80-100 trillion assets CFTC regulates $5-10 trillion assets Both of the world's largest capital markets are showing us that crypto assets are here to stay and they're welcome alongside traditional assets. Every country will follow. This is the biggest move toward legitimacy I've seen in all my time in crypto. Maybe bigger than the genius act since is covers all crypto assets. Well done @MichaelSelig and @SECPaulSAtkins. And especially well done to the indefatigable @HesterPeirce. Her fingerprints are all over this, couldn't have happened without her eight years of principles-based curiosity.

Love the curiosity. Here’s the simple version. How is Kaspa decentralized? ~ Open, permissionless network – anyone can run a node or mine, same as Bitcoin ~ Proof-of-Work (k-HeavyHash) – no staking, no gatekeepers, no validator cartels ~ BlockDAG (GHOSTDAG) – parallel blocks instead of a single chain, allowing high throughput without central coordinators ~ Fast block rate (currently ~10 BPS) – reduces reliance on large miners to win long block races ~ No premine, no VC allocation – fair launch, like Bitcoin ~ Global node distribution – not controlled by a foundation or company Why would someone choose Kaspa over Bitcoin? It depends what you care about: ~ Speed Kaspa confirms transactions in seconds, not minutes ~ Throughput Handles many transactions at once, no need to wait in line ~ Low fees Designed for everyday payments and microtransactions ~ On-chain scaling Doesn’t rely on external layers to function at scale ~ Future programmability Roadmap includes things like covenants and more expressive transaction logic ~ Real-time UX Feels closer to modern payment systems while staying PoW Why someone might still choose Bitcoin ~ Proven history and brand ~ Strongest store-of-value narrative ~ Largest network effect and liquidity The honest take? It’s not really Kaspa vs Bitcoin. It’s what job are you hiring the network to do? ~ If you want a long-term, conservative store of value → Bitcoin fits ~ If you want fast, scalable, usable digital money → Kaspa fits Both can exist. They’re solving different constraints within the same idea.

@CadeONeill @cryptomatt1983 Agreed. With the focus on the $Trillion real-world markets and not the $Billion/ $Million Cryptoland markets, the % of potential adoption is huge. And even now, devs inside and outside the tent have their eyes set on enterprise and global industry adoption.

@Kaspa_Commons @cryptomatt1983 That’s a good point. Adoption usually starts quietly with infrastructure, miners, developers, and businesses integrating it before the mainstream really notices. The real question is how big that ecosystem grows from here

What happens when a high-speed blockDAG network starts getting serious attention? $KAS was built for fast confirmations and scalable throughput, something a lot of chains still struggle with. What $KAS community thinks, where do you see $KASPA heading next? 👀

Thing is, it already has begun. Adoption isn’t just people buying coffee with crypto. (which they are) :) It includes infrastructure, capital investment, developers, and merchants. Kaspa already has industrial miners like MARA allocating hashpower, a growing global merchant network, payment gateways integrating it, ASIC hardware manufacturers building machines for it, and an active developer ecosystem preparing the next generation of applications, most focused on real-world application. That is exactly how real adoption begins.
