Why it matters
Kaspa applies the GHOSTDAG protocol so that blocks produced in parallel are all incorporated into the ledger rather than orphaned, which allows a far higher block rate than traditional proof-of-work while keeping PoW security assumptions. It launched with no premine or pre-allocation, and its appeal is concentrated among proof-of-work purists rather than application developers.
