Kaspa Ready for a 10x Speed Boost: Major Network Upgrade Unveiled

Blockchain platform Kaspa prepares for a major network upgrade, aiming to significantly accelerate transaction speeds and unlock its full potential. The Crescendo Hardfork is slated for late April or early May 2025 after rigorous testing on Testnet-10 (TN10), which has been running at 10 blocks per second (BPS) since March 6, 2025. This upgrade will mark a tenfold increase from Kaspa’s current processing speed, delivering faster transaction confirmations and maintaining the robust security features of its proof-of-work consensus mechanism.
