Kaspa Hashrate and Network Health, Explained Background photo: panumas nikhomkhai / Pexels

Kaspa hashrate measures the total computing power securing the network. It's one of the best signs of network health: more hashrate means more miners competing, and an attack becomes far more expensive.

The network numbers that matter

How Kaspa mining works

Kaspa uses proof of work with the kHeavyHash algorithm, mined mostly on dedicated ASIC hardware. Because blocks arrive so quickly, miners get paid in many small rewards instead of rare big ones, and the BlockDAG means blocks found at the same moment are both kept rather than thrown away as orphans.
