Kasia Wallet Launches, Privacy Debate Ignites Kaspa

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

First up: Kasia progress. iOS TestFlight invites filled fast, with folks confirming it’s in testing and even saying “We released,” plus a handy broadcast node at kasia.fyi. Users tinkered with custom themes, and one hiccup—“calculating fee” stuck—was fixed by reconnecting to the network. Smooth again after a quick settings check.

Exchange drama… but mostly a nothing-burger. ProBit was slammed after a Kaspa delist mention, with the crowd noting the exchange does about “$665,057,951” in daily volume—roughly six hundred sixty-five million—and only “$6” of KAS volume (yes, six dollars). Another quip: WhiteBIT’s KAS/USDT pair saw “$469.” The verdict: who cares.

Governance and housekeeping took center stage. There’s an active push to elect new admins—specifically Tim and supertypo—to clean up channels and keep the Discord lively. Early vote counts were low, but organizers kept pinging folks to upvote and help “keep this Discord alive.”

On infra: mixed signals. One user flipped a private node public—celebrating a New Zealand blip on the map—while another thread said there are “205” public nodes visible, with many assuming lots of non-public nodes exist too. Meanwhile, Kasplex briefly went down—users joked someone unplugged the single node—then came back up; later chat mulled whether a database is a central culprit. Net sentiment: minor wobble, back online.

Privacy coins sparked a fiery debate. ZEC’s move—called “up 40% today” by one user—had people revisiting the “privacy is dead” narrative, stacking it against Kaspa’s transparent approach. Some argued for privacy layers or forks; others pushed back on trade-offs like bigger transactions and lower throughput. The mood swung between curiosity and caution, but it definitely shaped today’s conversation.

Quick vibes check: plenty of gallows humor—“joever” jokes and macro jitters—but also steady hands dollar-cost-averaging and building. From Kasia’s steady grind to community governance, the signal today was about shipping, not sulking.

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