Kaspa network measurements
Kaspa block rate and fees against new issuance. Every number on this page carries its date and is marked either measured, by us, or source, a series we take over and name.
How fast does Kaspa produce blocks?
Kaspa runs at 10 blocks per second since the Crescendo hardfork, KIP-14. At that rate a block time distribution is counted in tenths of a second, and the longest gap matters more than the median.
