Whales, Delays & Drama — Kaspa Under Pressure

Hey, welcome to Kaspa Daily Pulse – here’s what the Kaspa community’s been buzzing about today.

First up, the whale watch. A lot of chatter pinned the recent sell-off on a single wallet cluster said to control around 400 million KAS, with claims it dumped roughly 100 million two days ago and has been buying back since. Some even linked the behavior to exchange games on MEXC and Gate, pointing to multiple timed withdrawals and a few tagged addresses shared in chat. Whether it’s one entity or several, whale flows were the day’s main character.

Second, Smart Contracts anxiety. Community mood ranged from “pulled the plug” and “delayed until further notice” to “wait for Berlin on the 13th,” with at least one voice hinting they’re under NDA. Net effect: expectations are sliding; patience is thin.

Third, the tip.cc drama. Members say they crowdfunded to get Kaspa integrated into the widely used Discord tipping bot, but the dev still hasn’t shipped or barely replied; someone even offered to personally reimburse folks out of pocket to close the loop. There was talk that a server got deleted, adding to the frustration. Great PR, right?

Fourth, price vibes and market structure talk. The room kept eyeing support in the high-7c/low-8c area, with lines like “7c soon,” “say goodbye to 8c,” and notes about ~$25M in MEXC longs between ~7–7.4c hanging over the market. At the same time, people flagged a rank slide to #49 on CMC and worried about falling out of the top 50. Sentiment leaned tired, defensive, and a little fatalistic.

Fifth, a spark of grassroots action: several folks pushed for real-world outreach—stickers, posters, and “on the ground” conversations—framing KAS for money and Kasia for communications. Slogans floated: “KAS & KASIA – Your voice. Your money. Your privacy.” There’s even an idea to demo Kasia at an upcoming conference and a “Try Kasia for Free” fund to grease the wheels. Love to see the builder energy peek through the noise.

So what’s the vibe check? Today was dominated by whale speculation, delayed-release fatigue, and a bruised chart—tempered by a few practical calls to take the narrative offline and into people’s hands. If anything, the community’s split between doomers, die-hard DCA’ers, and a small crew trying to ship or promote something tangible.

That’s it for today’s pulse. Let’s see what tomorrow brings. Catch you then.
