What is Kaspa?

Kaspa is a cryptocurrency that is based on blockchain technology, just like Bitcoin and other popular cryptocurrencies. As a beginner, it is important to understand that a cryptocurrency is a type of digital currency that uses cryptography to secure and verify transactions made on its network.

Kaspa stands out as a network specifically designed to address some challenges and limitations that have been observed in other cryptocurrencies. One of Kaspa's main features is its consensus algorithm, called kPoW (Kaspa Proof of Work), which ensures the security and reliability of the network.

One of the significant differences of Kaspa compared to other cryptocurrencies is its ability to scale efficiently. This means that Kaspa has the ability to handle a greater number of transactions per second and can grow more effectively as more users join the network. This scalability improves the speed and efficiency of transactions, which can be beneficial to the widespread adoption of cryptocurrency.

Furthermore, Kaspa is considered a decentralised and open source network, which means that it is not controlled by a central authority and that anyone can access its source code and contribute to the development of the platform.
