On March 29, 2024, Kaspa’s Global Ambassador Luke attended the prestigious . The event, organized by leading ASIC miner manufacturer Bitmain, brought together experts in the fields of cryptocurrency mining and blockchain technology. The summit focused on innovative mining solutions, particularly hydro-mining, to address environmental concerns.
The first day of the summit featured discussions on digital innovation, with keynotes from various industry leaders. Layla Mining, Bitmain’s first ambassador, spoke about expanding mining content in the Arabic market. Representatives from My First Bitcoin, an educational non-profit in El Salvador, shared their Bitcoin Diploma program’s success. AI artist Ting Song discussed the convergence of art and proof-of-work (PoW) technology, while Mike Michelini from the Handshake community highlighted their decentralized naming and certificate authority project. The day concluded with a welcome reception for networking.
The second day marked the official start of WDMS 2024 with an all-day conference, including speeches and panels from government representatives and industry professionals. Bitmain introduced their latest miner, the S21 Pro, with detailed information about its capabilities and cost.
A PoW award ceremony recognized several projects for their contributions to the ecosystem:
– Litecoin received the PoW Ecosystem Development Award
– Kaspa was honored with the PoW Ecosystem Potential Award
– Nervos won the PoW Ecosystem Application Award
– Alexander Neumueller was awarded for his academic contributions to green mining
– Ethereum Classic took home the PoW Ecosystem Contribution Award
As Kaspa’s ambassador, Luke expressed immense pride in receiving the PoW Ecosystem Potential Award on behalf of the community. The summit concluded with a grand buffet dinner and live music at the W Hotel, celebrating the bright future of digital mining and the vibrant PoW community.

Kaspa goes into the scene as a Proof-of-Work (PoW) cryptocurrency with a distinct twist: the GHOSTDAG procedure. This distinct function identifies Kaspa from its equivalents. Unlike conventional blockchains, Kaspa uses a blockDAG (directed acyclic chart). As an outcome, Kaspa boasts lightning-fast deal speeds, supposedly processing a block per second. Picture sending out a cryptocurrency deal and getting almost immediate verification – that’s the speed Kaspa intends to offer. Speed isn’t the only video game in town. Security is critical in the crypto world, and Kaspa is developed to be resistant to 51% attacks, a typical issue. In addition, Kaspa cultivates a decentralized network with a growing variety of miners and nodes, even more boosting security. Kaspa embodies the community-driven values of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Litecoin. There is no main governance in Kaspa, and its launch was reasonable, without pre-mined coins or unique allowances for designers. This cultivates trust and openness within the Kaspa neighborhood. With its focus on deal speed, scalability, and a safe, community-driven technique, Kaspa stands apart as an interesting rival in the vibrant cryptocurrency landscape. Whether it will end up being the fastest and most scalable immediate verification deal layer developed on a proof-of-work engine stays to be seen, however Kaspa is definitely a task to watch on. While this post has actually offered a top-level summary of Kaspa’s capacity, remaining updated on the current advancements is vital for any educated financier or crypto lover.

Hong Kong, March 30, 2024 – Kaspa, the innovative cryptocurrency platform, is set to make a big impact at the upcoming Web3 Festival in Hong Kong. This event will mark the start of the Kaspa World Tour 2024, with support from the Kaspa Ecosystem Foundation (KEF). Kaspa is dedicated to growing its global presence and strengthening its connections with its community of Kaspains around the world.
The Web3 Festival, taking place from April 6th to 9th, 2024, is an ideal venue for Kaspa to display its cutting-edge technology and engage with key players in the blockchain and cryptocurrency industry. The event will feature prominent speakers and leaders, providing Kaspa with a chance to showcase its solutions to the blockchain trilemma using BlockDAG algorithms, scaling proof-of-work, and addressing Cynthia Dwork’s Impossibility Result on partial synchronicity. Kaspa and KEF will also share their vision for the future of decentralized finance, including Rust smart contract development, MEV resistance implementations, and creating an efficient settlement and sequencing layer.
Luke, Global Ambassador of Kaspa, expressed excitement about participating in the Web3 Festival and launching the Kaspa World Tour 2024. He highlighted the importance of in-person events for spreading awareness about Kaspa and attracting new supporters. There will also be a special “Kaspa Fam Meetup” on April 8th, 2024, for Kaspa enthusiasts to network and celebrate their achievements, featuring appearances by Shai Woborki and Kaspa’s global ambassadors.
Chad Ballantyne of Kaspa’s marketing team emphasized the company’s focus on community-centric marketing and in-person events. He expressed gratitude for KEF’s support in making these larger events possible.

Hello $kas, let’s introduce you to @coderofstuff_ from the Rusty Crew. Coder is a self-taught developer who has been working in the tech industry for over ten years in the northern regions of the globe. He began contributing to the Kaspa ecosystem in 2022 and made his first contribution to the Rust codebase by mid-2023, becoming increasingly involved since then.
Coder’s initial motivation to contribute was driven by frustration with the only available block explorer’s slow performance, with loading times of up to 10 seconds. He took the initiative to analyze and improve the situation, collaborating with Rob (lAmeR1 on Discord) to submit a pull request that significantly reduced waiting times. This led Coder to use his skills to benefit himself and the Kaspa community. His contributions include a CSV report generator (https://kaspa-transaction-report.vercel.app/) and an ASIC ROI calculator (https://kas-breakeven-calc.vercel.app/), along with a list of fixes and enhancements to existing software. He also supports third-party integrations with exchanges, wallets, and mining pools, contributing to Kaspa’s inclusion in platforms like Uphold, ByBit, OKX web3 wallet, XT, Poloniex, Antpool, and others.
Coder shared his top three contributions:
1. Local address management: This improved network discoverability and connectivity by enabling nodes to share their addresses. It was Coder’s first contribution to the Rusty-kaspa codebase.
2. Optimize P2P block processing latency: This involved refactoring the block processing pipeline to reduce latency and improve block retransmission times.
3. Transaction relay throttling on high P2P load: This helped manage network resources during high loads, ensuring smooth operation during Testnet 11.
In addition to coding, Coder reviews all changes to the codebase, maintaining a deep understanding and upholding high review standards. He also tracks node-related issues for future resolution.
Coder discovered Kaspa through @SonOfATech’s mining content and was drawn by its developer pedigree, originality (not being a fork), and transaction speed focus. His motivations include improving the coin he has a stake in through mining and holding, as well as the continuous learning from collaborating with talented individuals.
Coder advises new developers interested in Kaspa to start by compiling the Rust codebase locally, exploring GitHub issues and pull requests, and engaging with the Discord community channels.
