Although @tty's answer is technically correct, it represents a peak TPS due to fluctuations in the block rate, which doesn't represent Kaspa's throughput over time. I think a more interesting metri...

There are no incentives to run a public node other than altruism.

Yes. Your specific use case can already be implemented via KIP 10, that enables some covenants functionality. Assuming Alice wants to grant Bob the permission to charge her with 10 KAS/month, she ...

No, in Kaspa each blue block receives a reward. The main reason is that rewarding only chain blocks (VSPC blocks) creates incentives for selfish mining. But there are other (milder) advantages to ...

Yes — red blocks themselves don’t receive rewards, but there’s an important subtlety. If rewards were simply destroyed whenever a red block appeared, the issuance rate of new KAS would fall behind...

GHOSTDAG partitions the blockDAG into blue blocks and red blocks. In the final ordering, blue blocks take precedence, while red blocks are placed after them (unless the DAG’s topology forces otherw...

Yes, rusty-kaspa comes with the tool kaspa-cli that supports sending RPC command. For example, to send the RPC command get-block-dag-info you'll need to do the following: git clone https://github...

Yes. Any cryptocurrency that supports HTLC can support atomic swaps, and since Kaspa-script is very similar to Bitcoin-script, the implementation would be practically the same.

The theoretical maximum is 856. You can find here a more detailed answer. It's hard to answer what's the average, because it depends on a time frame, but you can follow real usage in kas.fyi.

In many rollups mechanisms there's a need to save the pre-image of the most recent state commitment in order to continue operating. This means that once the rollup validators lose the state the rol...
