📊 Kaspa Network Daily Activity — May 22, 2026 🚀 IGRA L2 SURGES TO 1,968 — knocking on its all-time high! K-Social wakes up at 24. Kasplay matches its ATH at 71. Fully diluted reclaims $1B. A multi-front breakout day. ⚡ Core Network Metrics TPS: 35 (1h avg 36.4) — virtually flat from yesterday's 36, steady cruise mode BPS: 9.1 (1h avg 10.0) — block production solid near target Public Nodes: 338 📈 — NEW ALL-TIME TRACKING HIGH! Up from 334 (+1.2%) Active Miners: 176 📈 — up from 168 Network Hashrate: 397.0 PH/s 📈 — recovery from 391.5 Mempool: 31 transactions waiting — clean and efficient 📦 Supply & Emissions Circulating Supply: 27.45B KAS (95.65% mined) — +0.01% mined since yesterday Block Reward: 2.75 KAS Next Reduction: 2.60 KAS in ~14 days, 3 hours 📈 On-Chain Activity Transactions (last hour): 101,172 — slight dip from 105,384 (-4%) All-time Transactions: 2,156,524,551 — +3.5M since yesterday Active Addresses (last hour): 615 — pullback from 725 (-15%) All-time Active Addresses: 96,149,400 — STABLE, matching the May 19 figure The all-time address counter has settled at 96,149,400 after several days of dashboard recalibrations — a strong sign that the methodology has stabilized. The 95M milestone we celebrated on May 3 remains comfortably in the rearview mirror. Transaction chart shows a sharp single spike above 600K around midday before returning to baseline — concentrated demand wave absorbed cleanly with a relaxed mempool. 🧩 Layer-2 & Ecosystem Activity (Last Hour) Kasplex L2: 33 — virtually flat from yesterday KRC-20: 2 — major drop from 18 (-89%) KRC-721: 1 — small pulse Kasia: 248 🔥🔥 — pullback from 379 (-35%), still elite Igra L2: 1,968 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 — strong surge from 1,746 (+13%) 🚀 Kasplay: 71 🔥🔥 — MATCHES ALL-TIME HIGH! Up from 44 (+61%) 🎯 K-Social: 24 🔥 — WAKES UP from 0! 👀 Kaspeak: 0 KFS: 0 👉 Key Highlight: IGRA L2 ROARS TO 1,968 — its strongest reading in nearly three weeks and just 144 transactions shy of its all-time high of 2,112 (set May 3). After last week's brief outage scare (which turned out to be a dashboard glitch), Igra has not just recovered, it's now charging back toward record territory. Eight weeks of four-digit dominance, and the protocol shows no signs of slowing down. 👑🚀 KASPLAY MATCHES ITS ALL-TIME HIGH AT 71! After consolidating in the 44-67 range for several days following the May 18 peak of 99, Kasplay snaps back to its prior ATH. The trajectory has been a textbook breakout-consolidate-rebuild pattern: 99 (ATH) → 67 → 45 → 51 → 44 → 71 (matching ATH). The protocol has clearly found its new operating zone in the 50-100 band, and the structural growth story is firmly intact. Triple digits remain in clear view. 🎯 K-SOCIAL WAKES UP AT 24 — its strongest reading in our entire tracking period! After registering 0-2 transactions for weeks, the social layer suddenly springs to 24. This is a significant pulse worth watching closely. We've seen this pattern before with other protocols (Igra started similarly), and one strong day doesn't make a trend, but the magnitude of jump from baseline is notable. New ecosystem participant emerging? 👀 Kasia eases to 248 after yesterday's +120% explosion to 379 — natural consolidation but STILL in elite triple-digit territory. The wave pattern continues to play out cleanly: surge → cool → surge. Combined L2 top 4: Igra (1,968) + Kasia (248) + Kasplay (71) + K-Social (24) = 2,311 transactions per hour. SEVEN protocols showing some activity — broad ecosystem breadth returning. Node count milestone: 338 nodes — a NEW ALL-TIME TRACKING HIGH! The trajectory continues: 311 → 312 → 313 → 315 → 318 → 319 → 322 → 325 → 326 → 327 → 332 → 332 → 333 → 329 → 334 → 338. Decentralization keeps deepening every single update. 📊 Market Snapshot Price: $0.035 (+1.5%) 💚 — solid green reading Rank: #61 — slight slip from #60 Market Cap: $960.08M — up from $945M (+1.6%) Fully Diluted: $1.01B 💰 — RECLAIMED THE BILLION-DOLLAR MARK! 🧠 Daily Insight A genuinely impressive day with breakouts firing across multiple fronts simultaneously. What changed since yesterday? L2 side (multiple breakouts): Igra +13% toward ATH, Kasplay +61% matching ATH, K-Social wakes up to a tracking high, Kasia consolidates at elite — three protocols breaking out at once Infrastructure (all green): Node count NEW ATH at 338 (+1.2%), hashrate recovering to 397 PH/s (+1.4%), miners up to 176 (+5%) — every infrastructure metric strengthening together Market side (genuine green): Price +1.5%, market cap +1.6%, fully diluted RECLAIMED $1B 💰 — first FD above $1B in nearly a week Base layer (mild cooling): TPS flat, hourly transactions -4%, active addresses -15% — small giveback after recent strong days The Igra L2 push to 1,968 deserves special attention. We're talking about a protocol that was registering exactly 0 transactions on March 7 (just 76 days ago) now operating within 144 transactions of an all-time high. That trajectory is so extraordinary it almost defies comparison. Igra has now sustained 1,500+ transactions per hour for over eight consecutive weeks, through three block reward reductions, dashboard glitches, market dips, and address counter recalibrations. The protocol is not having a moment — it IS the moment. The Kasplay matching of its ATH at 71 is exactly the kind of "rebuild and retest" pattern that often precedes a decisive new high. After the May 18 breakout to 99, the protocol pulled back to 45 (May 19), held at 51 (May 20), and 44 (May 21), then bounced back +61% today to 71. This is healthy structural behavior — establishing a new floor in the 45-50 range and now retesting the 70-99 zone. If history rhymes (with Igra's early pattern), the next several days could see another push toward and through 100. 🎯 K-Social's surge to 24 from a baseline of 0-2 is the day's most intriguing development. The "social" layer of any blockchain ecosystem is often where viral adoption stories begin. We've called out K-Social a few times during quiet stretches as a protocol with potential to wake up. Today might be that morning. Whether this builds into something sustained or fades back to silence — we'll know within the next several updates. Worth bookmarking. 👀 The infrastructure trifecta is the quiet but critical good news: NEW ATH on nodes (338), hashrate recovering, miners increasing. All three of Kaspa's core decentralization metrics moving up together is the strongest infrastructure signal we've seen in weeks. With the next reward reduction now just 14 days out, this convergent strengthening looks like coordinated pre-reduction positioning by serious operators. The chain is gearing up. Market-side delivered the cleanest green reading we've seen in updates: +1.5% price, +1.6% market cap, and FULLY DILUTED RECLAIMING $1.01B. The rank slipped one spot to #61, but the absolute strengthening matters more. After many sessions of softness, this looks like genuine stabilization. The 2.15B+ transaction count keeps climbing — +3.5M today, on pace for another ~50M weekly addition. The chain doesn't care about narratives. It just processes. Nearly three months of tracking, and today felt like the culmination of multiple slow-build stories finally maturing simultaneously: Igra pushing toward record highs, Kasplay retesting its ATH, K-Social potentially awakening, infrastructure metrics all green, market reclaiming $1B FD. When this many things go right on the same day, it's usually not coincidence. 🚀 #Kaspa #KAS #KaspaBuilders #Layer2 #IgraL2 #Kasplay #KSocial #Kasia #Nodes338 #CryptoData
