The KAS price is currently sitting around $0.0357, which is basically where it’s been for a while. Consolidation mode. But underneath that quiet price action, there’s a lot happening. Major upgrades. Ecosystem expansion. Whale accumulation. The kind of stuff that usually precedes moves, not follows them.

The chart tells the story. The KAS price has been grinding sideways since the February highs near $0.045, holding support around $0.032. Volume is light. RSI is neutral. But that’s often the calm before something bigger.

What’s Coming for Kaspa

The big one is the Covenant Hardfork on May 5. That’s when native assets and smart contracts go live on Kaspa. Right now, Kaspa is a pure proof-of-work chain. Fast, efficient, but limited. After the upgrade, it becomes programmable. That’s a massive shift. It opens the door to DeFi, dApps, token launches, everything that makes other chains valuable.

Then there’s the Igra Network, which is already live. It adds EVM compatibility, meaning developers can build on Kaspa using the same tools they use for Ethereum. That’s a huge adoption barrier removed. No need to learn a new language. Just build.

And behind the scenes, the DAGKNIGHT consensus research is ongoing. That’s the next-gen upgrade that could make Kaspa even faster and more secure. Not a near-term catalyst, but long-term it matters.

What the KAS Price Could Look Like by 2027

Kaspa’s market cap is around $900 million right now. For context, Solana hit $100 billion at its peak. That’s a 100x in market cap. Kaspa doesn’t need to hit that to make a serious move. But if it captures just a fraction of the smart contract market after the Covenant upgrade, a 10x to 20x from here isn’t crazy.

A 10x would put the KAS price at $0.357. $5,000 becomes $50,000. A 20x puts the price at $0.714, and your bag is worth $100,000. If Kaspa really catches fire and the market cap climbs toward $10 billion, that’s 30x to 40x. Your $5,000 becomes $150,000 to $200,000.

The Risks

Nothing is guaranteed. The Covenant upgrade could be delayed. The market could stay flat. Competition is fierce. But the setup is there. Kaspa has a fast, efficient base layer. It’s about programmability. The community is strong. Whales are accumulating.

The KAS price might not move much in the next few weeks. But by 2027, after the upgrades are live, after the ecosystem has time to build, the picture could look very different. 

A multi-year hold on something that’s building infrastructure while the market isn’t watching. That’s where the big numbers come from. Not chasing pumps. Being early to something that’s about to get a lot bigger.

New Trump appointee Miran calls for half-point cut in only dissent as rest of Fed bands together

New Trump appointee Miran calls for half-point cut in only dissent as rest of Fed bands together

The post New Trump appointee Miran calls for half-point cut in only dissent as rest of Fed bands together appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Stephen Miran, chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers and US Federal Reserve governor nominee for US President Donald Trump, arrives for a Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee confirmation hearing in Washington, DC, US, on Thursday, Sept. 4, 2025. The Senate Banking Committee’s examination of Stephen Miran’s appointment will provide the first extended look at how prominent Republican senators balance their long-standing support of an independent central bank against loyalty to their party leader. Photographer: Daniel Heuer/Bloomberg via Getty Images Daniel Heuer | Bloomberg | Getty Images Newly-confirmed Federal Reserve Governor Stephen Miran dissented from the central bank’s decision to lower the federal funds rate by a quarter percentage point on Wednesday, choosing instead to call for a half-point cut. Miran, who was confirmed by the Senate to the Fed Board of Governors on Monday, was the sole dissenter in the Federal Open Market Committee’s statement. Governors Michelle Bowman and Christopher Waller, who had dissented at the Fed’s prior meeting in favor of a quarter-point move, were aligned with Fed Chair Jerome Powell and the others besides Miran this time. Miran was selected by Trump back in August to fill the seat that was vacated by former Governor Adriana Kugler after she suddenly announced her resignation without stating a reason for doing so. He has said that he will take an unpaid leave of absence as chair of the White House’s Council of Economic Advisors rather than fully resign from the position. Miran’s place on the board, which will last until Jan. 31, 2026 when Kugler’s term was due to end, has been viewed by critics as a threat from Trump to the Fed’s independence, as the president has nominated three of the seven members. Trump also said in August that he had fired Federal Reserve Board Governor…
