MrNasdog Pressure Framework

KAS · fair-launch mining is the only source of new supply, and it slows every month.

KAS is the coin of Kaspa, a proof-of-work BlockDAG layer-1 — ~27.5B circulating out of a fixed ~28.7B cap, already about 96% mined, with no premine, no vesting and no foundation.

Sell pressure. New KAS comes only from mining — about 178M over the next 90 days, easing every month as the emission schedule steps down.

Buy pressure. Nothing offsets it — no buyback and no burn, an empty buy ledger.

Net. About +0.65% to market over 90 days — supply drifting up slowly, and the pace keeps easing.

Sell pressure
1. Protocol inflation
~178M KAS

New KAS is created only by mining, and the pace steps down about 5.6% every month on Kaspa's chromatic emission schedule — a smooth monthly version of a yearly halving. That adds roughly 178M KAS over the next 90 days, down from about 211M in the last 90, and it keeps easing toward the fixed 28.7B cap.

permanent · no change
2. Vesting unlocks
0

There is nothing to vest. Kaspa launched fair on Nov 7 2021 with no premine, no team or investor allocation and no tokens held back — every KAS in existence was mined, so no unlock schedule exists.

permanent · no change
3. Foundation + unscheduled unlocks
0

Kaspa has no foundation, no company treasury and no premined reserve — there is no team-held supply that could ever enter the market. Nothing to unlock here — monitored.

permanent · no change
4. Long-term locked or bankruptcy
0

No bankruptcy estate and no locked allocation applies to KAS — there was never a pre-mine or escrow to release.

permanent · no change
Buy pressure
1. Programmatic buyback
0

Kaspa runs no buyback — there is no protocol treasury or revenue used to buy KAS off the market — monitored.

checked · Jul 13 2026
2. Protocol fee burn
0

Kaspa burns nothing. Transaction fees are paid to miners, not destroyed, so no supply is removed by a fee burn — monitored.

checked · Jul 13 2026
3. Foundation buy
0

There is no foundation or company behind Kaspa doing open-market buying — monitored.

checked · Jul 13 2026
4. New long-term lock
0

A pure proof-of-work chain has no staking or lock-up, so no new long-term lock removes supply from the market — monitored.
