63M Kaspa Transactions… But Was It Real?

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

First up, transactions exploded… on paper. The channel celebrated a “63.2 million transactions in 24 hours” day—some even said “60 million regular tx a day” on L1—then a dev chimed in and admitted they’d written a script that spammed Kaspa for a few days “for science.” What does that mean? Folks questioned whether the activity reflects real demand, and it sparked talk about moving toward a more sustainable L1 fee model. The vibe: cool stress-test, but let’s not confuse throughput flexing with adoption.

Second, L2 took center stage. Lots of questions about Kasplex: who gets the fees, do any flow to L1 miners, and how to actually track L2 activity. One view labeled Kasplex a for-profit building on Kaspa; another clarified it’s not “core.” People traded pointers—Kasplex explorer to observe activity, plus kspr.exchange and “lfg”-style launch portals—while debating whether L2 fees should exist at all. Bottom line: curiosity high, trust mixed, and the community wants clearer docs on how L2 pieces fit together.

Third, a concrete builder update: a point-of-sale/payment terminal using an xpub for read-only wallet access—one fresh address per payment, custody stays with the owner. Hardware PCB “almost finished,” firmware ready, mobile app in progress. That’s the sort of real-world utility people said they want to see… fewer memes, more machines. Love to see it.

Fourth, onboarding pain is real. New folks kept asking for a simple starting point; veterans admitted our info can feel like “PhD-level” threads. Suggestions ranged from a pinned megathread to using the wiki and main site—but several voices called for “compact” resources that explain Kaspa in minutes, not hours. The intent to fix it is there; the execution needs a champion.

Fifth, sentiment check: a tug-of-war between frustration and faith. Some lamented “volume is dead,” remembered the days of “200 million… even 2 billion” volume, and noted a slide to rank 53. Others rallied with “Uptober,” “accumulating,” and calls to “build instead of complain.” Rumors about big exchange listings dominated chatter—then got swatted as speculation without official confirmation. Hope’s alive… but receipts matter.

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