Kaspa Community Erupts Over X Account Meltdown

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

First up, the big soap opera: the Kaspa X account. People woke up to what they call “mental illness” levels of shitposting on the Unchained account – enough that some are saying, “O Kaspa, how far we have fallen… once exalted, now just another common crypto.” There’s confusion over whether it was “taken over,” “hacked,” or just handed to the wrong people, with jokes about some “dodgy intern” and debates over whether Cara is even the one posting. A proposal is circulating to straight-up delete the account, calling it “authoritarian” and “repulsive,” and saying the owner is playing 4D chess with the community. At the same time, others argue nuking an account with around a quarter-million followers is insane and that it should’ve been the bridge between deep tech and normal users… not a meme warzone.

Second, market mood. Folks are feeling that drawdown hard – people are talking about Kaspa being roughly 80 percent down from the all-time high, joking that “Kaspa is cooked, poored, doomed, rugged, rekted, buried in guano.” Some are obsessing over holding the key support zone around 3.8 to 4.3 cents and dreading a trip toward 1 cent, while others flex DCA buys all the way from 11 cents down to under 5 cents and say they’ll happily buy more if it nukes. At the same time, there’s a coping narrative: Zcash took about eight years of accumulation before a big move, its lows were around 20 cents and later it saw prices near 3 dollars… while Kaspa’s peak around six-and-a-half billion in market cap is being compared to projects that launch at fifty billion. So yeah – max despair and long-term conviction are coexisting right now.

Third, the tech talk is still 🔥 even in the red. People are hyped on vProg, calling it a game-changer for private, useful dApps – even more important than 10 blocks per second. There’s a whole debate about the decentralization trilemma: some argue that needing a box with around four CPU cores, a dozen gigs of RAM and roughly twenty megabits of bandwidth is still “hobby gamer” level, while others worry that pruning and higher throughput slowly centralize things. The dev side counters that 10 bps was chosen instead of 32 bps specifically to protect decentralization, with a long-term dream of maybe 100 bps as hardware and bandwidth get better.

And finally, under all the drama, builders and miners are still grinding. People are mining on Ks0 ultras and Ks7 lites, sometimes on solar, some even using miners as space heaters. Solo mining is said to be strong since Crescendo, and community infra keeps growing – public nodes, indexers, a Kasia bot, even a global-weather-alerts channel broadcasting extreme events. Price is rough, socials are chaotic, but the machines – and the dev boxes – are still humming.

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