Join the Discussion
Kaspa is led by the people. The path forward is carved through open discussion, productive debate, and constructive planning by a widespread community of developers, researchers, enthusiasts, miners, speculators – the list goes on.
There is no company or foundation leading the charge – which is the way a truly decentralized network should operate.
Who are the Core Founders?
Kaspa was created by DAGLabs, through investment by Polychain Capital. DAGLabs – co-founded by Yonatan Sompolinsky – was a research & development company focusing on scalable DAG-based protocols, and was dissolved shortly after the Kaspa launch. Despite funding from Polychain Capital, Kaspa launched with zero allocations or premine, with the key vision of being a decentralized, pure, and open initiative.
The contributors outlined below are ex-DAGLabs developers & researchers that actively contribute to the advancement & maintenance of Kaspa & its codebase.
There are countless volunteers that contribute to the Kaspa ecosystem. Please visit our main website for a thorough compendium of community contributors.
