Welcome to Kaspa.Social platform release everyone!

I guess time has finally come to see where the 10 months of my personal time and money will end up and finally launch the project publicly.

Here's the reality check of where things are right now. 30k~ kas was donated by individual contributors not reaching a target of the project becoming not only my work, but a multi dev, multi backed work. But I'm really thankful to the initial donos and especially the folks that voted to support the project for it to be moved to a funding section on Kaspa's community Discord, even thought most didn't contribute, the support at first is what is appreciated especially when you can count builders on KAS using your 10 fingers.

$KAS is currently idling at 1.3billion market cap, but a builder's road is definitely a hard one, when we are being a fair launch project wheel and no real VC backing to kickstart ideas into actual live works. My personal goal was to try getting community support/KEF for me to run this on a full time basis and properly unite the web based interactions into a single actually interactive Kaspa dedicated multimedia platform. So here we are.

KEF (Kaspa Ecosystem Foundation). Took 4 weeks to get a talk with a person representing the initiative, and fucking kas.fyi just had to blow up a week prior leading a good chunk of drama around it, so it was quite a gloomy endeavor talking about the project of my size. Thanks to that, what I was told KEF has changed the stance that they don't wanna onboard new projects to their portfolio, but keep trying to grow their existing ones. And possibly offering me to join their existing project portfolio. But here's the deal, I got ADHD, I got used to doing things my way or the high way, so me jumping in on some else's code without my motivation being fully there is a hard ask, so it has been decided that I'm still launching this for the community after all of the months that I have put into the making of this platform from an empty Windows folder. The good news the person was kind while not committing to project's ownership to mention that a 50/50 split could be done. So if you will like this project and work and wanna support, donation button on the homepage and KEF might double community's raised sum giving at least some motivation to put in hours into support and polish of the platform. How many people have seen https://kaspavisualizer.com/ ? Yep this 100% AI slop with no soul behind actually got fully sponsored. I guess if lucky it was showed at some convention 1 time and has never seen the daylight ever again as it's completely soulless type of work. But hey someone get's more lucky then others, that's just how life goes.

A bit of a comment on kas.fyi that I used and loved like everyone else, CryptoK was an individual dev, just like many others with his own motivations for his bag and his own work. Nobody judges the fact that kaspa.com is a for profit project, netting quite good numbers with support for nfts/memes, so knowing web dev myself and what unrewarding sack of shit it is, imho CryptoK was fair to ask for the sum he asked. But good thing with such stuff is nothing is irreplicable. One stuff goes, new stuff comes, Kaspa's decentralized for a reason not to depend on anything until a single miner is left with a single node. So if you ever build something for kas or on kas, don't let others dictate their ways for you on what to do with your work. The road is yours.

Will Kaspa.Social end up being the same? Who fucking knows. It's literally up to people to adopt the platform, especially with keeping it lively in terms of content creation or quality reposts. I have made it super easy for you to bring your content from X or YouTube directly to Kaspa.Social. That's what it was made for.

I guess at this point there's no point for the front page to be turned into a complete X like slop. Like my X feed is now fully off KAS into other ventures, but my soul and dedication for KAS is still as strong as ever. And that's exactly why I wanna see this platform make it, I wanna open it in the morning and see users pushing the quality content that is easy to digest and catch up with the quality bangers of the days purely for KAS. An acceptable option after that is closing the app which has served the Kaspa News portion or go shitpost on Forums because our humble crypto market is there 24/7 for ya. No apps to download needed, native React already, tried my best to make the whole platform mobile/tablet friendly as well my old school loved Forums live once again in 2026.

The concept of ecosystem will buildout itself is simply not a concept for Kaspa, that's why people should keep on building and shipping.

Expect initial submissions to homepage feed take a bit of time for my approval, however the platform was designed to work without me being present on semi moderate basis. I also don't wanna move to phase of moving roles directly from Discord etc to the new app, so let me know if you are still motivated and can be aligned with the content quality standards listed in FAQ.

Consider it a fresh start, start creating some new content and enjoy your time here.

Paz. ❤️
