"User-friendly and works now usually beats theoretical superiority until the superior thing actually works better."
Took this quote from grok when trying to gather all my thoughts together on the future path for kaspa:native . I am going to just brain dump to see if someone can find what I am missing or just agree with my take on things.
Lost focus on building one thing like vprogs was inevitable to happen.
There is no way to stop the fragmentation of devs, funding, and efforts going all over. This is because the nature of this market is free and users want to operate for profit. No one wants to lose.
All in focus on cores desires for smart contract like programability is high risk high reward when Kaspa does not have forever to just be on the sideline trying to attract users with "hey look whats coming."
What is a bit unfortunate is seeing core shift away from trying to market Kaspa as being money to solely view Kaspa as this MoE powerhouse to allow you to do many things. I get the shift but the problem is the "many things" are simply not many. I could be wrong for this feeling but this is simply what I am getting.
Kaspa has a narrative crisis that is for sure but I think the biggest mistake is to try and leave the money narrative all together. I simply point this out cause I fear I am seeing signs of abandonment of this all together.
Giving humanity a better Money IS the biggest market. This is the biggest way I can onboard any noob into crypto with Kaspa. The % of people not in crypto is greater than the % of people in it and it seems efforts are being made to try and steal users from everywhere else that are already here and hope it happens.
I think Kaspa main efforts should be focused on no coiners. This means developing to give these users a way to live on a Kaspa standard. This also means making apps to easily utilize Kaspa and especially bring native stablecoins to it. Kaspa for ultimate storage, stabecoins for living day to day while still living on the Kaspa network at all times. Hopefully Toccata ships and we get this moving along quickly.
When it comes to L2s and bringing basically all ETH offers to a wonderful base layer like Kaspa I repeat what I stated above. User-friendly and works now usually beats theoretical superiority until the superior thing actually works better.
Kaspa is money and its the first time money will be programmable to scale at internet speeds while keeping true to Bitcoin level properties of security and decentralization. This keeps users self-sovereign and truly rids the reliance of the middle man.

@CryptoBullGod Never stop. Im in my 50's and have been in the gym since I as 13. Pushing 40 years and still not satisfied.

@fitcapdefi Best thing I found was to take before bed. I was doing 1mg. Slight nausea before I fell asleep and that’s it. Helped sleep and woke up with no issues.
English

this mt-2 is straight up kicking my ass, this first shot i attempted last week was 500mcg which got me extremely nauseous and lethargic, way too much
so i waited a week to try again now on day 2 of 200mcg the nausea is ramping up again along with crazy appetite suppression like i can't even look at food right now
gonna drop down to 100mcg tomorrow and see how i handle that
what is the lowest effective dose of mt-2 you have used?

@pentragon79 Agreed it is but needs more than that. Many of the OG idiots think tech is all it needs. Period. It’s the “digital silver”, “hedge against inflation”, “Bitcoin but better”. Complete nonsense.
English

@SWilliams471 Tech is the moat 🏰. Everything else can be bought. Show me a project that succeeded long-term on hype alone.
English

@CashiusCrypto96 Respectfully….Not a chance in hell that will happen. You may want to lower that target a tad.
English

@pentragon79 You’ve been brainwashed by the “tech only” kaspian retards. Tech alone will NOT save it.
English

@SWilliams471 The market not front-running is exactly the setup. 95%+ mined, Toccata launching June 5–20 with native tokens + ZK opcodes + covenants, programmable L1 at a $1B market cap. If the market was pricing it in, you'd have missed it already. The "laughable" part might age poorly.

@hodlinsky @Kas123theking Not without serious adoption and real world use case.
English

@hodlinsky Wait for KII project. Wait for $KAS ecosystem updates. And you get it! #Kaspa will go very huge mc crypto in the future.
English

@lamekayu18 You are about to upset the “Kaspa tech will win it all” retards. They don’t believe in listings or adoption. Just “the tech”. But you are 💯correct and I’ve been saying the same for months. #Kaspa is and will die a slow death without real use case, adoption, and T1s. Period.
English

the only thing that will pump kaspa is adoption and listings. #Kaspa
English

Everything pumping but Krapsa is down
#kaspa tards HFSP 🤡

@iBuyYouCry @0xexpt Same. I’m a bit nervous after all this going on. Biggest order I placed yet and was planning on a bigger order in a few weeks. May hold off on that.
English

@0xexpt Is Lumira still operational?
Just placed an order with them this week
English

Not long ago, police raided (some) FedEx warehouses in China because they discovered some individuals were using FedEx to ship narcotics, and this caused them to suspend all operations for some time which you already know if you bought with Lumira for example.
It's so bad that a lot of suppliers just switched to China Post instead of the reputable international carriers.
But the downstream effect of that is that also a few peptides sellers got caught, resulting in their businesses shutting down and unable to fulfill orders people paid for.
Sadly, this is the case for Ultrapept and Novavial.
Always true to our commitment to our customers, every single order affected has been entirely refunded.

@seth_fin Have you got Parkinson’s? Always seem to be shaking. Maybe get checked out.

Ignore the PnL metrics, the oracle is perfectly tied to price discovery, and I can see a lag of about 30s-1min with @chainlink that struggles behind given the imprecision of taking a median of medians.
I spent like 1h yesterday watching how slow chainlink was, a price jump of 50$ on $btc on binance is reflected instantly in most exchanges (Coinbase etc.) which are tied closely to price discovery. However chainlink can reflect that price change like 1-2min later when the price is already far up, or even coming back down, pretty astonishing to see.
what this means for an @aave is that you can avoid quite a bit of bad dept in a volatile event.
fwiw use a TEE on my code and liquid exchanges, you've already got an oracle strictly better than chainlink.
can't wait to see this live on @AppKaskad and for the whole #kas ecosystem

English

That is the million dollar question isn’t it? Some time ago there was talk of doing a marketing fund but was ultimately decided against because the “tech only bros” decided that would have a “centralized” appearance. “Let the tech speak for itself and just spread knowledge”. We see how well thats turned out thus far.
English

$KAS doesn't scream for attention and maybe that's the point.
The projects that last aren't usually the loudest. They're the ones with real tech, consistent teams, and communities that actually care about what's being built.
Kaspa checks those boxes. The rest is just time.

@DailyKaspa The downtrend actually started 07-31-2024. It’s been almost two years of nothing but downward PA.
English

@CryptoBullGod XRP army was the worst bruv. I sold all my XRP years ago for $KAS just because of the toxicity. Unfortunately many in the $KAS community are starting to give me the same vibes. Getting worse by the day.
