Partnership announcement I am thrilled to announce a new partnership that has been in the making for a while now. I have to admit, it was hard to keep it under wraps, so I did troll a little bit about it. The name of the project I will be cooperating with starts with a Q...

Maybe I should've been clearer about this: My partnership with Quai occupies a predetermined portion of my time. I've also been busy with several other projects. Some related to $kas, some aren't. Announcements will come in due time.

It seems that most people interpreted yesterday's statement as "I'm leaving $kas for $quai." A more realistic interpretation is "I'm no longer bound to any specific project, I now consider myself a free agent of the proof-of-work space and reserve the right to cooperate with

I'VE BEEN SAYING THIS FOR YEARS! Launching based on flimsy ideas, hoping non-breaking solutions for any problem along the way just magically materialize, is both a very bad approach and a cryptocurrency industry standard.

Kaspa Yonatan Sompolinsky Aviv Zohar I didn't invent GHOSTDAG, Aviv Zohar and his student already have when I joined the effort. The latter was unable to prove GHOSTDAG was secure, so my contribution was to do the security analysis for him, but the protocol was fully specified when I joined.

Reposting again because I think this discussion could be very interesting to anyone who's interested in proof of work, (or a discussions about some of Satoshi's original comments.)

Ever heard of Ada Lovelace? The first person to understand that you can mathematically represent a universal computing machine that is given instructions (what we now call "program" or "code") and outputs a solution? She wrote about it 80 years before Alan Turing was born. How

Now that Kaspa doesn't have a technical voice of someone who was actually involved in building it, or at least studied it well enough, degens are flocking in to fill the vacuum. The community must encourage and pressure devs to participate in tech talks. Self-proclaimed

OK now I'm *really* pissed off! Consider a real number x, there are two ways to round it to an integer: rnd(x), which takes it to the nearest integer, and ceil(x), which takes it to the nearest *larger* integer. So for example ceil(0.7)=rnd(0.7)=1, but ceil(0.2)=1 and
