Over the past two weeks, while the crypto market faced the largest liquidation event in history, wiping out 19.5 billion USD in leveraged positions and liquidating 1.6 million traders, Kaspa projects continued to build and break records. The network processed 158 million transactions in a single day, setting a new world record for the fastest proof-of-work blockchain and underscoring its unmatched scalability and resilience.

Kaspa core developer Ori Newman launched a new community Q&A platform, and Michael Sutton shared fresh insights on fast proof-of-work. Kaspa now has nodes on nearly every continent, and the Kaspa Education Series held another event in Nigeria. KasUnder appeared on the XXIM podcast to discuss their Bubble Maps and support for native KAS transactions
