Some Kadena fan: Kadena’s hashrate is higher than Kaspa’s
Me: no it isn’t, you ignored the different hash function, if you properly normalise you find that Kas is ten times more mined than Kda in terms of Capex
Another two kda fans: oh, so you are saying kda is ten times more…— Shai ❤️ Deshe 💜 Wybors𐤊i 💙 (大胡子) (@DesheShai) June 12, 2024
In a recent Twitter discussion, Shai Wyborski, a PhD candidate in quantum cryptography and core developer of Kaspa, pointed out the misconception that Kadena’s hashrate is higher than Kaspa’s. The conversation started when a Kadena fan claimed that Kadena had a higher hashrate than Kaspa, to which Shai responded that this was not the case. He explained that the comparison was inaccurate due to the different hash function used by each blockchain, and when properly normalized, it was clear that Kaspa was actually ten times more mined than Kadena in terms of Capex.
Despite Shai’s clarification, some Kadena fans misunderstood his point, thinking that he was saying Kadena was ten times more superior. The exchange highlights the importance of understanding the nuances of blockchain technology and the metrics used to assess its performance.
As a PhD candidate in quantum cryptography and a core developer of Kaspa, Shai Wyborski is well-versed in the intricacies of blockchain technology and is dedicated to advancing the capabilities of Kaspa. For the latest news and resources on Kaspa, readers are encouraged to visit Kaspanews.net.
