The launch of smart contracts on Kaspa through Kasplex marks a major milestone for the ecosystem. Kaspa is known for its high-speed, scalable BlockDAG architecture; however, it has lacked native smart contract functionality until now. With Kasplex bringing EVM compatibility to Kaspa, developers can now build decentralized applications directly on one of the fastest and most secure proof-of-work networks. This opens the door for DeFi, NFTs, gaming, and other on-chain innovations to thrive on Kaspa, combining the programmability of Ethereum with the performance and security of Kaspa's unique infrastructure.
