Ecosystem Overview

Programmability Roadmap

Kaspa is building toward full programmability in stages, with each layer adding more capability:

KRC-20 (Live)

The KRC-20 token inscription standard is live on mainnet. It allows anyone to create and transfer tokens on the Kaspa network. This is the first layer of programmability and is already in active use.

SilverScript (Testnet — TN12)

SilverScript is a CashScript-inspired scripting layer with a Rust compiler. It expands what can be done with Kaspa’s UTXO scripts, enabling more complex on-chain logic. Currently being tested on TN12.

Igra EVM Rollups (Testnet)

Igra is a Swiss non-profit developing EVM-compatible rollups for Kaspa. This would bring Ethereum-style smart contract capabilities to Kaspa while using the BlockDAG as a settlement layer. Igra has operated a public RPC since October 2025.

vProgs (Prototype)

vProgs — programmable virtual machines for Kaspa — are in the prototype stage. This represents the longer-term vision for native programmability on the network.

Enterprise: KII

The Kaspa Industrial Initiative (KII) focuses on enterprise adoption with a DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) emphasis. Target sectors include:

  • Energy — decentralized energy infrastructure and trading
  • Supply chain — transparent, verifiable supply chain tracking
  • Finance — enterprise-grade financial applications

Infrastructure

The Kaspa ecosystem includes a range of tools and services:

  • Multiple wallet options (desktop, mobile, hardware, CLI)
  • WASM and Python SDKs for developers
  • Stratum bridge for mining pool integration
  • Full node software in Rust (rusty-kaspa)
  • Multiple testnets for development (TN10, TN11, TN12)
