Greetings $KAS. KCC-1, KCC-2 and KCC-20 are now Final, meaning they are ready for full adoption across the ecosystem. We invite Kaspa builders to join the public KCC channel to ask questions, get support, discuss implementations and share what you build. Come build with us.

PR #31 (KCC-20 Last Call advancement) was merged on October 7, 2026 at 20:38:09 UTC. 14 days from that is October 21. KCC-20 is final on October 21.
Quick clarification on KCC-20 timing 👇 PR #31 moved KCC-20 to Last Call on 7 Oct, but the header has no Last-Call-Deadline. On a 14-day count that's ~21 Oct. A few questions please: 1.Is 21 Oct the intended end of the review window, or is a deadline still to be set? 2.KCC-1 and KCC-2 went Last Call on 1 Oct — do all three move to Final together, or does KCC-20 wait on those two? 3.Is the argent-lang reference impl + merged vectors considered to satisfy the KCC-0 §4.2 "public implementation" requirement? Asking so builders know when it's safe to ship against KCC-20 as Final rather than Last Call. Appreciate the work on this 🙏 @manyfest_ @michaelsuttonil @IzioDev @asaefstroem

If anyone is still trying to get into local AI inference, this is the time. V100’s are about to get much more expensive.

So many people complain about crypto changing into a gambling sector. Even I do. I’ve sometimes considered leaving industry because of how tiring the narratives are. Depressing to build extremely complex technology just for it to be used by a memecoin. But then I remember the fundamentals. And that is that knowing what I know, I could never trust a bank again. Crypto is still the hardest money. It’s easy to get lost in the noise sometimes. So we have to remind each other, about why we are here, in the first place.

The biggest concern with agentic wallets is always the same: "what if it hallucinates?" or "how can you ensure it doesn't interact with malicious contracts?". This is the wrong question. The correct question is: what can the agent touch? Our answer: almost nothing. 🧵

we out here grinding, what about you?
The KCC Coordination Forum has reached an important milestone in the standardization process. The foundational KCC-1 and KCC-2 standards have now entered Last Call. This opens a final 14-day review period. If no major issues are identified, both standards will be finalized and considered ready for ecosystem adoption. We encourage anyone working with these standards to review them carefully and raise any remaining concerns during this period.

Crazy to see two pools have more than 50% of the hashrate on $KAS. Miners should consider switching to other pools or go solo.

It is important to stay patient. Coming up with your own ways of doing things and disregarding the process of @kccforum contributes to nothing but ecosystem fragmentation. If you want to speed up the process, participate in the GitHub PR discussions.

The future of AI is local inference.
Today, we’re announcing Ternary Bonsai 2 27B. Based on Qwen3.8 27B, Bonsai 2 27B is 9x smaller than its full-precision counterpart while retaining 98.2% of its aggregate benchmark performance. Two months after the first Bonsai 27B release, the biggest change is quality. The footprint remains 5.9 GB, but the gap to full precision has narrowed materially, with particularly strong gains in agentic coding, multimodal reasoning, and long-horizon tool use. Ternary Bonsai 2 27B is available today under Apache 2.0.

$KAS, we’re still early. I think the market was a bit ahead of its time last ATH. We are at a much more advanced stage now, and building so many things behind the scenes.

This is how we win, $KAS.
The Kaspa ecosystem has long seen fragmentation in how applications use the available primitives and interface with other ecosystem components. Wallet connectivity is one visible example. KIP-12 attempted to establish a common approach, but did not gain broad adoption, potentially because there was no sustained coordination around its development and adoption. The KCC Coordination Forum, initiated by @iziodev, @michaelsuttonil, @orinewman, @manyfest_, and @asaefstroem, is intended to provide that coordination. It brings together developers and stakeholders with substantial experience in the development of Kaspa and its ecosystem, and welcomes other experienced contributors who can broaden and strengthen the effort. The forum will jointly evaluate, refine, and formalize KCC proposals submitted by the community. Where coordination gaps exist, it will also take proactive initiative, help develop the conventions needed, and push the ecosystem toward convergence around shared standards. Final adoption remains in the hands of the wallets, applications, and infrastructure providers responsible for implementing them, and where the KCC Coordination Forum will assist with support and implementation.

This is a big milestone.
Seven months since the first commit, and after an extensive review and standardization process (thanks to @manyfest_,@iziodev,@michaelsuttonil and @asaefstroem), I'm publishing a release candidate for Silverscript v1. The last merged PR was written by @michaelsuttonil and numbered #235, which is a nice reminder to the fact that Silverscript started as my (someone235) project and is now becoming a project involving the entire Kaspa community. You can find a link to the release candidate in the reply, and I'd love to hear the community's feedback. If we don't receive any substantial feedback, we'll release Silverscript v1 for mainnet use one week from now.

The first three Kaspa Calls for Conventions (KCCs) have been published as DRAFT. together they propose a common base for Kaspa covenants, from low-level representation to a concrete token standard. kcc-01 formalizes the basic covenant concepts. they were already implicitly used in different forms by SilverScript, Argent and by some applications. the direct outcome is interoperability. wallets, indexers and applications can agree on how covenant state, entrypoints and templates are represented. it also makes higher-level discussions and reasoning easier. while working on kcc-02 and kcc-20, and with community participation, we had to return several times to kcc-01 and make its terms more precise. this is also a good reason to keep it DRAFT and open for discussion for some time. kcc-02 defines authority schemes. the need came directly from kcc-20: before defining token transfers, we need a shared way to describe who or what can authorize them. this is not limited to a public key owner. an authority can be a public key, a key commitment, a script or another covenant lineage (a covenant can be owner / governor of a token UTXO). the list of schemes is extensible, so more can be added later. for wallets, the goal is to recognize these authorities uniformly, only from the program ABI instead of learning a different format for every application. kcc-20 is the first "concrete composer". it defines common state and transfer conventions for fungible-token covenants. an application should be able to recognize a KCC-20 token, read it and construct transfers for it. the actual program can still be written in Argent, SilverScript or directly with opcodes. kcc-20 leaves room for token-specific extended state. an application can add its own data and behavior while keeping the base token state and transfer interface recognizable. the intent is not to make every token identical, but to keep a common interaction surface between different deployments. kcc-20 also introduces borrowed receive and its authorization schemes. token assets are separate from KAS, but every new token UTXO must still be funded with enough KAS under Kaspa's storage-mass rules. borrowed receive allows an existing recipient token UTXO to be reused instead. this feels natural for fungible tokens because its token amount can increase while its KAS value, owner and extended state stay unchanged. the owner must first opt in and select the authorization scheme controlling when this is allowed. the three drafts did not really happen one after another. kcc-20 showed that kcc-02 was needed, and kcc-02 required some missing definitions from kcc-01. publishing them together now allows each layer to be discussed and reviewed against a real use case. all 3 are drafts and community participation is needed.

Last September, I had the pleasure of attending the very first @KaspaExperience event in Berlin and what an incredible day that was!! I got to meet hundreds of people from the $KAS community for the first time, strengthened existing relationships and made new friendships! This event went on to create such a powerful impact and movement within the Kaspa community that I would very much like to see it happen all over again but here in London.. And so around 4 months ago, I started making enquiries about possible venues in well known areas of London aswel as reaching out to people and projects in the ecosystem with hopes to pool resources together and make this event happen After utilizing connections made between @BlockchainBants & @WolfysBar, we have found a great venue that can fit 250+ people for a relatively decent price and have pencilled in a date!! Not only this but we also set out to create & push the next @kaspathon with help from @Elliott_Blast, @Seb28_7, @iclblockchain & @Cambridge_Uni, we are organizing a week long hackathon across each University campus aswel as at the Kaspa Experience event in London There is already a huge community effort from people like @rhubarbmedia, @argonmining, @KaspaQueeen & @imaldev all lending their time, efforts and resources to the cause We have also been speaking with a few Kaspa core developers and they have expressed keen interest in attending everything So if you want to make history by being a part of the next @KaspaExperience event & also the next @kaspathon then get in touch with me and lets make this happen 🤝
