KAS

The Kaspa community is cautiously optimistic — developers are actively working while the market is resting. Here are the main trends:

1. **Technical Updates**: smart contracts via Kasplex L2 and the DAGKnight roadmap for 2026

2. **Growth of the ecosystem**: launch of KRC-20 tokens and development of DeFi projects

3. **Speculation on Price**: a 25% increase triggers discussions of bullish technical analysis, but with warnings about the risks of leverage.
: The evolution of Layer-1 and the integration of zkEVM — **positively**

"Kaspa transitions from fast PoW to a full-fledged Layer-1 with Kasplex zkEVM — Ethereum developers will be able to easily port dApps. DAGKnight ( the first quarter of 2026) will ensure transaction finalization in fractions of a second."

**What it means:** Mixed signals — a technical breakthrough indicates momentum, but the high dependence on leveraged positions ( open interest $66.9 million ) increases the risk of liquidations upon breaking the support at $0.047.
The general opinion on Kaspa is cautious optimism. Developers positively assess the technical roadmap, while traders closely monitor the level of $0.047–$0.052, which could become critical. It's important to watch the progress of the Kasplex mainnet and derivative funding rates — sustained positive rates above 0.0035% may indicate interest from major players, and a drop below $0.045 could trigger profit-taking after a 42% weekly increase in November.
