DAG

_TheWolfOfWalmart_

It had a crazy run during the bear market, and the tech is actually pretty cool but it hasn't and never will get any adoption. It's basically a nifty tech demo and that's all it'll ever be. Seems like every cycle has it's killer next-big-thing DAG, and this time it was Kaspa. They have a run and then die.

formerFAIhope

The stuff that you're holding and the way you're describing it, seems like you're more interested in memecoins and shitcoins, in the hopes of not being the last suckers who get rug-pulled in the ponzi scheme. Cautiously optimistic about Kaspa. Proper implementation of DAG in Blockchain. Unlike Hedera, which is a "blockchain adjacent" network with deep vulnerabilities even with (or perhaps because of) the Hasgraph consensus - the only reason it reached ATH early this year was because of Canary Capital ETF. Now, it's back to being the dead network it was before. GC has made a complete joke out of it, and rest of Hedera CEO/CTO/whatever chiefs, are clueless. Kaspa is still in its incipient stage, the goal is to bring SC-type functionality on L1 itself, with a L1 that is already superfast (10 BPS achieved with goals of 100 BPS; comfortably handles thousands of TPS, can easily handle millions of transactions per day as well). So it is a long-term hold, because there is still plenty of work to do, to build the ecosystem while also maintaining incentives for miners/validators. Thankfully, Kaspa core team is literal Harvard scholars, they have a clear vision on what and how they want to upgrade the blockchain, and it has decent funding while also being a fair-launched, fully decentralised, trilemma-resolved network.

I was really interested in DAG application for Blockchain. That's a very crucial and necessary upgrade that Blockchain needs. Otherwise, we are stuck with these deformed consensus mechanisms, desperately trying to not acknowledge the underlying problems with serialised Blockchain (which LN did not fix, and Ethereum just gave up, while Solana doesn't even think about it). Although not Blockchain, first was Hedera, but they have soon proven, that they are clueless, they just want the "validation" from corporate giants at the risk of giving up decentralisation, while also making absolutely no fucking effort to advance crypto space in any way. Only thing they do now is pointless college grad level projects - including that "DOVU" nonsense, which is just an empty token, it has no legally binding validity anywhere. The only reason HBAR went up was because of the Canary Capital ETF. It is a dead network with the equivalent of a shitcoin. I am glad I got out at the recent ATH earlier this year. But those who are still in loss while HBAR is barely reaching 20 cents, are stuck in their sunken cost fallacies. Kaspa seems like the next, promising DAG in Blockchain proper. Developers are literal Harvard scholars. There is some kind of decent backing for miner infrastructure. But it's not seeing the growth it was promising. Hell, it has crashed terribly. The rest of the Kaspa community feels like they are a brainwashed cult: they barely know anything concrete about what are strengths and equally important, limitations, of Kaspa. But keep whining about, "tO tHe mOoN 🚀🚀🚀", conveniently ignoring Kaspa's total supply is 28.7 *billion*. So, I am just cautiously watching how its ecosystem develops. Arguably, Kaspa will not truly begin its journey until start of 2026. Right now, it is just building the infrastructure. It's around 4.5 cents now, so you could probably throw some hundred dollars at it and not think about it for a few years. Beware, token supply is 28.7 billion, so while "fixed", it's massively inflationary (even though official Kaspa website argues that it's "both inflationary and deflationary", which is somewhat true, but still, 1000x the supply of Bitcoin already).

They are DAO built on crypto, and it will happen again. The question isnt if, but how its handled when it does, the fact that AI run arbitrage and the nature of block chains is that they architecturally have front-running vulnerability. It is only a matter of time before an "oppise" becomes a global collapse. It is time to recognize the importance of decentralized architectural immunity to front running, and well the answer does exsist in crypto, blockchains are an outdate tech thatbare not the answer. We gotta start looking at DAG.

DeaderthanZed

Look into Keeta from ex-Nano people. It’s a similar DAG structure with delegated Proof of stake consensus but with actual funding (raise included Eric Schmidt) and team and newer tech.

formerFAIhope

lol, if you knew anything about HBAR/Hedera, you wouldn't have vomitted that nonsense. Do you even have any fucking idea how the Hashgraph consensus compromises on decentralisation? How it's controlled by the literal corporations crypto was supposed to escape from? How it does nothing more than college-level projects, with no wide-scale adoption, or in case of DOVU, absolutely no legal legitimacy? Do you even know what a DAG is? Now you all are whining about HBAR, after the Canary Capital ETF news pumped it up. But where were you all, when it was down in the dumps since 2022, wallowing in 4-7 cents territory, *for years*? Bagholders chasing hype without knowing the why and how. The best time to get into HBAR was during that rut, and the best time to get out was after the ETF hype. But you can hold the HBAR I sold at 38 cents lol.

LeftPromotion4869

Lol I was big into Nano back in 2017, sold it in 2020 at a small profit and not touched any crypto since. How far has the tech moved since then, in terms of use and real-world application? I remember DAG's like it and IOTA falling off at the time

formerFAIhope

Cautiously optimistic with Kaspa: DAG finally done right *and* implemented for Blockchain. Already comfortably executing 10 BPS with thousands in TPS, *on a PoW consensus*. Smart contract integration has been a pain, so waiting to see how that evolves. But the foundation laid here for actually using BlockDAG in crypto is going to lay the foundation for future networks that are going to provide serious competition to networks like Solana and even fiat merchants like Visa in TPS. Perhaps even surpass them. But this will take years to unfold. SC integratoon and zkrollups are first thing to strike off this year. Then next 5 years or so are going to show if it really has any potential and love from the community at large.

East-Day-7888

Because blockchain is a 3 decade old technology and other types of DLT exist. And I dont invest in the past, I invest in the future. Just because regulations are finally catching up on all DLT, doesn't mean blockchain is going to be what the future and web3 operate on. The hashgraph DAG is orders of magnitude better than any blockchain in existence. Saying blockchain or hashgraph is like saying DvD vs. Digital encoded media like streaming or downloading. Yea, both will show you a movie. But they are not even close to playing the same game. Hbar is infinitely scaleable, architecturally immune to front running. Has absolutely finiality at the mathematically highest possible standard of abft, at 3-5 seconds, and it does it to where use cases that need to remain private can operate their own shard and remain within their own regulations. Think if any tech problem any block chain has it, and hbar has already solved it. There is not a trilemma to solve on hashgraphs, it doesnt one, there is not a reconciliation problem on hbar, its not a tower of blocks. There is not a scalability problem. Shards can operate independently and privately and still be reconciled flawlessly. I could keep going, but instead of listing features, maybe it might need better to ask you what got you into crypto.

skr_replicator

It seems more designed for store of value, I doubt even lightning could handle world-scale everyday currency. DAG chains seem far better designed for everyday currency.

formerFAIhope

Kaspa. How the hell are people sleeping on this? DAG for Blockchain! This is the missing link. Parallelisation of block generation and ordering. This is serious tech upgrade. Hedera comes nowhere near, in terms of true contributions to current crypto space. People are now whining about it, because after being for *literally years* down in the dumps (in the time that other serious alt coins went through the roof with at least double digit percentage growth), the ETF news allowed HBAR to jump a little. And it has receded significantly from ATH still.

Calm_Situation_1131

That's fine because Keeta is a DAG lmao.

ChampsUpset

Honestly, Google summarizes it better than I ever could: XRP vs. HBAR: A comparison XRP and Hedera (HBAR) are both prominent cryptocurrencies utilizing unique technologies and aiming to solve different problems in the crypto space. Here's a breakdown of their key features and distinctions: 1. Underlying technology XRP Ledger: A permissionless, open-source blockchain designed specifically for payments. It uses a unique consensus algorithm known as the Ripple Protocol Consensus Algorithm (RPCA). Hedera Hashgraph: Employs a revolutionary distributed ledger technology (DLT) called Hashgraph. This technology, based on Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs) rather than a linear blockchain, utilizes a unique gossip protocol and virtual voting for achieving consensus, according to Hedera. 2. Speed and scalability XRP Ledger: Processes around 1,500 transactions per second (TPS) and settles transactions in 3-5 seconds. Hedera Hashgraph: Can handle up to 10,000 TPS, achieving transaction finality in 3-5 seconds. 3. Transaction fees XRP Ledger: Features exceptionally low transaction fees, typically around 0.00001 XRP per transaction. Hedera Hashgraph: Also boasts very low fees, with a fixed fee of $0.001 per transaction, paid in HBAR. 4. Use cases XRP: Primarily focuses on cross-border payments and remittance services, enabling faster and cheaper international money transfers for financial institutions. Hedera: Supports a wider range of applications, including decentralized finance (DeFi), identity management, tokenization, supply chain management, and more, according to Coinrule. 5. Governance XRP Ledger: Relies on a Unique Node List (UNL) of validators, selected and managed by Ripple Labs, leading to a degree of centralization. Hedera Hashgraph: Governed by a council of up to 39 diverse organizations spanning various industries, aiming for a more decentralized and stable network management, according to CoinMarketCap. 6. Security XRP Ledger: Employs a robust consensus mechanism designed to resist common attack vectors, relying on the trust of vetted validators. Hedera Hashgraph: Leverages its Hashgraph algorithm to achieve asynchronous Byzantine Fault Tolerance (aBFT), which ensures high security even if some nodes are compromised. 7. Staking XRP: Does not support traditional staking. However, some platforms offer interest-bearing accounts for depositing XRP. Hedera: Operates on a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) network, allowing HBAR holders to stake their tokens to secure the network and earn rewards, according to CoinMarketCap. 8. Energy efficiency XRP: Issued its entire supply at launch and doesn't rely on mining, resulting in minimal energy consumption. Hedera: Minimizes computational processes with its DAG technology, making it extremely energy-efficient, using only about 0.00017 kWh per transaction. Conclusion Both XRP and Hedera offer efficient and promising solutions in the world of distributed ledger technologies, but with different focuses and approaches. XRP excels in its niche of high-speed, low-cost cross-border payments for financial institutions, with deep integration into traditional financial systems. Hedera provides a more versatile platform for a broader range of enterprise-level decentralized applications, driven by its unique Hashgraph technology and diversified governance model. Ultimately, the choice between them depends on your specific goals and priorities, whether it's optimizing payments or building scalable and secure dApps.

**1. POW vs DAG - different eras, different needs** Yes, Bitcoin kicked off the industry with decentralised proof-of-work, but the industry has evolved. Today, speed, cost, energy efficiency, and regulatory compliance matter far more for mass adoption than whether a network is POW. Hedera’s hashgraph consensus can finalise transactions in seconds with near-zero fees, without burning enormous amounts of energy or relying on speculative mining incentives. The world is moving towards sustainability and compliance, and POW is facing increasing pushback from regulators and enterprises alike. **2. Governance is a feature, not a flaw** The “enterprise focus” that critics frame as centralisation is in practice a strong governance model. Hedera is run by a council of globally recognised, non-competing organisations across different sectors and jurisdictions. This makes it far more resistant to hostile takeovers, nation-state interference, or unilateral protocol changes compared to many decentralised projects where miners or validators can collude or be captured. This is critical for trust at an enterprise and institutional scale. **3. Decentralisation is not one-dimensional** The obsession with “anyone can mine” ignores that real decentralisation is about resilience, distribution of power, and network stability. POW often consolidates into a handful of large mining pools due to economies of scale. Hedera’s council model guarantees geographic, organisational, and sectoral diversity by design, and its roadmap for permissionless nodes is progressing in a controlled way to avoid the instability and governance chaos that has plagued other chains. **4. Real-world adoption > ideological purity** Kaspa may be attractive to crypto-native enthusiasts, but Hedera is already hosting high-throughput, real-world applications at scale, including those with regulatory obligations. From carbon credit tracking to supply chain transparency to micropayments, these are actual deployed use cases with millions of daily transactions. The enterprise-first approach positions Hedera to capture markets that simply cannot operate on a permissionless, high-energy, slow-finality POW chain. **5. The “why would Google use it?” argument is backwards** Enterprises like Google are not going to build mission-critical systems on a network where governance can be forked at will or where fees are unpredictable. Hedera offers legally binding governance structures, predictable performance, and stability guarantees. The fact that council members include Google, IBM, and LG suggests they see strategic value in the platform. Spinning up “VProg” nodes on Kaspa might sound cool to crypto hobbyists, but it offers no guarantees for compliance, auditability, or deterministic performance. **6. Narrow use cases? Not at all** Payment settlement, compliance-friendly DeFi, tokenised assets, ESG reporting, and verifiable data integrity are multi-trillion-dollar verticals. These are not “niche” problems; they are the exact areas where blockchain will actually displace traditional infrastructure. Hedera is optimised for these from the ground up. In short, Hedera is playing a different game. Kaspa is chasing the ideological purity of early Bitcoin with faster POW, but Hedera is positioning itself as the global trust layer for regulated finance, enterprises, and governments. In a world moving towards sustainability, compliance, and scale, that is the smarter long-term bet.

There are multiple networks that use a DAG structure. Not just Kaspa. I don't trust the project either, but this take is incorrect.

Negative. Your confusing the Euler networks. There were 2. This is not a scam. Just posted live link to their working product. Yes, Kaspa was the first DAG. But doesn’t hold a candle to what BDAG is building. KAS not even EVM compatible

If you really have to gamble on things from 2018 then go with the Ark / Request Network Token / Komodo tokens, if you're interested in coins go with the main gpu-mined powcoin Vertcoin or the Nano coin with its DAG technology...at least these 5 of the 2017/18 hype are moving forward with development without marketing or useless promises...

Lurcher_A

the US military is a major user of Constellation Network for data storage/security. But I believe they're also partnering with IBM, Panasonic and possibly indirectly with Samsung amongst others. Which would indicate our scales well for wider adoption. But perhaps you're right and the use of DAG is not critical to using the network, which might in part explain its low price?. I merely mentioned DAG because it has verified use cases other than as stable coin. I could have chosen a number of others including HBAR, XDC, VET etc that have strategic partnerships with / scalable use cases for partners in the big end of town. And definitely not just as stable coins, though I believe stable coins can be launched on some of these networks?

Lurcher_A

true indeed, stable coins have a use case. But not true that they're the only ones in crypto to have a use case. There are a multitude of cryptos that have proven use cases. Here's just one example flying under the radar, the lowly Constellation Network (DAG). The American military have been using it for a few year now for its high level security, and are looking to expand its usage. That has to be a high recommendation for its use case in securing data? Personally, I can't understand why it's price is so low .... "The US military utilizes Constellation Network's blockchain technology, specifically its Hypergraph Transfer Protocol (HGTP), for secure data sharing and management within the Department of Defense (DoD). This includes applications in areas like multi-domain command and control, secure data exchange, and validation of big data at scale for logistics operations. The technology is integrated into systems like Iron SPIDR, used by the Air Force and Space Force, and is being explored for use in areas like procurement and secure system access."

Longjumping-Bonus723

Most ppl don't get it yes. The 1st blockchains are slow, not secure, high fees, inefficient. etc. it's like comparing DVD to tape. BTC and ETH have a special place but I never saw a future for things like avax, ada and dot. They just live of the fact they were part of the big altcoin season. Hedera is like next next gen technology it's not even a blockchain anymore. It's a DAG.

Ok, go learn DAG, I can’t be bothered to ger into the ABC of NANO and DAG systems.

RefrigeratorLow1259

100% quantum proof? That's not a consensus issue, that's about signature schemes,it still uses ECDSA same as BTC, so no QR there. Hyperscale with no wallet upgrades? Where's the proof on that? The current GhostDAG doesn't scale globally without centralisation trade-offs, esp. factoring in latency sensitive propagation - All these claims about solving the trilemma are a bit dubious imo. Anyway, GPU mining is becoming more centralised due to economies of scale, just like BTC and ASICS. Your fast block rates increase bandwidth /syncing requirements favouring the big players with mega infrastructure - increasing centralisation... It promises a lot, but I'll wait until this DAG Knight is deployed/audited ....Is it in testnet?

RefrigeratorLow1259

Lol! Kaspa devs really said "what if Bitcoin, but with a DAG and none of the adoption?" Quickest PoW? Congrats, you made high-speed irrelevance. "Carbon-positive"? Maybe if your GPUs run on unicorn farts. Still no privacy, по smart contracts, no real usage just another coin chasing buzzwords while pretending it's not just GPU mining with extra steps.

Stray14

It’s a premine. DAG will always struggle with this concept. IOTA, the perfect example.

Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) ? Blocklattice. Glad you did not suffer a stolen.

gaendalf

Yes but on the DAG, not blockchain.

gaendalf

We don't use ghost dag, that's something unrelated to Obyte DAG first released in 2016.

gaendalf

Thanks for the questions! Randomization is to help you meet new people in the community (when you become neighbors), and make that meeting a little surprise for both. The DAG structure ensures that nothing can be rewritten and no transaction can be stopped by anyone. All outcomes are final and everyone is free to participate.

gaendalf

Thanks for sharing your opinion and glad to hear from someone who participated in our early airdrops. The cypherpunk/crypto-anarchist narrative is how crypto began, and currently it feels like it lost its way. That's what Amir and Sebastian are talking about. I think, sooner or later, a reset is due. I don't think BTC has won the store-of-value (SoV) sphere. It has won the mindshare in this sphere but I'm afraid few people realize that a majority group of mining pools is able to censor any transaction if they collude. Nobody has similar power in Obyte DAG https://blog.obyte.org/distribution-of-power-in-dags-and-blockchains-7727ca1a2b6d. Of course, Bitcoin was a huge improvement compared with banks in terms of SoV protected from third-party intervention. But Obyte goes even further by eliminating the power centers that hold the power to extend the ledger, and giving that power to every user. That makes a much more censorship resistant store of value.

Suirelav

Hi Tony, nice to see you do this! Regarding Obyte City, why did you choose to randomize plot location instead of allowing free market land grabs? Bonus question: how does the underlying DAG structure of Obyte influence the scalability, determinism, and fairness of reward distribution in Obyte City, especially in edge cases like simultaneous adjacency triggers or contested governance outcomes?

Particular_Pop_7553

Personally it's because they've solved sharding with DAG and also gigatons, a new startup from the guys who built gridserve, one of the biggest car charging infrastructure networks in the uk. They plan to tokenise $100 billion worth of assets. If anything look them up, they recently did an AMA on X/Twitter

fairysquirt

Feeless instant, hybrid boom.POW DPoS DAG. Communicates for real info to someone than saying 'nano has no mining or sting', if you're just saying no rewards for POW or delegating your weight to a rep, say that. But even then boom.POW did have rewards for years paid in Banano. Nano just never acknowledged it, when asked why their services dropped out in their discord they'd say they didn't know. Haha, rather than mention Banano community had been running most their services pow for years.

fairysquirt

I know how DAG works, I never said anything about fees or rewards, stop farming everything or looking for things to farm and you'd be less narrow minded. I read the whitepaper 8 years ago. Chatgpt doesn't mean much to me. Reps are delegates, you stake your weight with them, what you're putting AT stake is choosing a rep that isn't operating an upto date node or good up time. Never said it has locking.

olduvai_man

Kaspa is trying to do this on the DAG front, but it's more decentralized than Nano.

OsamaBeenLuvin

Agreed on the DAG. That architecture, in general, deserves a lot more attention and respect than it gets. But why the premine hate?

Stray14

No hate for Nano from me. It’s fuckkkking fast! DAG doesn’t get a lot of love full stop.

craly

I think using DAG and blocklattice techonlogy is a good step. I am sceptical about using POW for reaching consensus, not sure if Kaspa can avoid miners cenralizing into large pools like what has happened to bitcoin. I know people say that the miners can just change pool if one of them become to large, but for a smaller miner the economic incentive is to join a large pool to get payout more often. Is there any info about how mining hashrate is distributed on the Kaspa chain?

Aconyminomicon

I don't know much about it other than that the tech is a DAG and somewhat unique, but I have heard concerns about it back in the day. They are often mentioned in a lot of partnerships with other chains like Algorand or Hedera.

fairysquirt

Nope. You could have fees on tx, block lettuce is just how DAG adds work, like their own individual blockchains. You can remove tx fees from Solana and Bitcoin.etc. the feeless aspect is just validators not charging fees... now the Fast aspect however

CFB is the mastermind behind PoS, NXT, IOTA, DAG, Jinn, Paracosm, Qubic and more. He shaped crypto before most even got in. 15ubic 1cfb those aren’t just addresses they’re history. Study BitcoinTalk.

skr_replicator

Bitcoin simply is not uited to be aneveryday currency, even with lightning. But that's ok, bitcoin is quite good as the noninflanatory store of value. We don't need exactly bitcoin to serve as the currency, other much more efficent blockchains of even better DAGs can do that. They can complement BTC very well in this. You could have BTC as an inflation-hedged sacing account, and a DAG wallet for spending, and you could freely convert needed amounts between. The maxis would of course not want to hear this, it's their cultish demand that they must reject every altcoin as a s scam that must duie and that btc must be used for everyuthign even the everyday currency that it's can't itself handle. But then there's this even bigger kryptonite of BTC maxis - there are better so;ution than BTC even for this disinflationary store of value. Much more eficienct blockchains that are as secure and scarse as bitcoin, but can scale and sustain themselves much better than bitcoin, and can handle large-scale stroing of value better, and not need to comsume as much electricity as small nation for it. Don't even mention this possibility tpo them, that would be an instaban and shun lol.

PrestigiousLoad6098

I'm not going to disagree with you because who knows a and BTC has such relentless first mover advantage, but you should definitely research it. Its redefining PoW scalability through DAG chain. Became most scalable PoW in Oct 24 and just forked 10x faster without breaking a sweat. The guys behind it are cryptographic researchers, quoted in ETH whitepaper. Fair launch, very true to Nakamotos principles; due to scalability, more true to it than BTC. But you've never heard of it because it's fair launch, with no VC-backing or marketing. Old crypto heads should really only hold two coins. BTC and KAS.

You do zero fucking research that's why you don't know that KTA is a 10million TPS GIANT with POS DAG architecture but you don't know what that is. My popcorn is out while you're getting rekt. You must not know about ODL and instant settlements for Cross border payments. Banks love this shit, they're waiting for regulations in July followed by iso20022 adoption. Even small banks can use XRP ODL if they don't wanna adopt ISO. PEACE OUT DUMMY

Absolutely spot-on comparison. Early IOTA had to hand-tune DAG forks because their whitepaper didn’t solve network divergence. In CITU, we specifically designed the protocol to avoid any kind of manual override or “master node” situations—fork resolution is entirely algorithmic. **How fork resolution works in CITU:** * At any given moment, nodes look at all available chain tips and follow the branch with the highest *total Points* (our cumulative scoring system). * Points can’t be faked or pre-mined, since each block’s score is built from actual network activity, mining complexity, staking, and randomness—all computed and validated independently by each node. * There’s simply no way to “fake” your way to the winning chain. You’d have to out-compete the rest of the network on every metric. **Has there ever been a need for manual intervention?** No—once the current protocol was implemented, the network has been fully automatic. All forks resolve by code, not by admin keys or central authority. That said, during our *alpha*, when we still relied on classic Bitcoin-style difficulty, we did see real problems with forks and stuck chains, especially if a big miner “pumped and dumped” the network. That’s one of the main reasons we moved away from that approach. **Why this is important:** * In Bitcoin, massive hashpower and huge node counts “bury” bad forks—but that safety net only exists for the top-3 coins. It was enough to sink projects like BTG or Litecoin in their early days, where stuck difficulty and “chain splits” were a real risk. * In CITU, it’s the Points system that does the work—forks are naturally and deterministically resolved by the protocol itself, not by social consensus or emergency interventions. **Bottom line:** The blockchain is always determined by cumulative Points—there’s no way to cheat or “call a referee.” The system has been running hands-off for two years now, and all network splits resolve themselves automatically. If you’re curious about the code or the on-chain data, I can always walk through the actual fork resolution logic. Thanks for a genuinely deep protocol-level question—happy to talk about real mechanics any time.

Not big enough to see any tied mining races - chain tip forks. Neither was Bitcoin at 2 years old. But the protocol minimized tip forks, and resolved them. This reminds me of the IOTA white paper - instant transaction attachment to a "DAG", no blocks, minimal delay. I asked them how the system prevented nodes from diverging to multiple incompatible transaction histories, because the white paper doesn't cover that. Their response - haven't worked that out yet, we're currently tweaking every DAG fork using a manually controlled master node

Bitcoin in how it's designed was always going to become a store of value instead of everyday currency for buying coffee. PoW is just not scalable to such enormous degree, not even with the help of Lightning if you think of how many channels would constantly need to be opened and closed. For everyday transactions, technologies like DAG are way faster, more efficient and scalable, but probably not as trustwworthy to store value. So that means these two tech can perfectly complement each other - the blockchain being your cold wallet to store your savings, and a DAG hot wallet, that could fund from the blokcchain time to time, and use it to buy your coffees. But of course, this shoudl not persuade you from not buying bitcoin, a store of uninflatable value is exactly what one would want to keep buying and having their savings in. So the only reason to not buy bitcoin (longterm, not accounting for shortterm market cycles), would be if you believed some possible altcoin could also be just as good for securely storing value as bitcoin, but was even better at it that it might flip it one day. That sentence alone might probably get me banned here, but I think that absolutely is possible. There's no magical spell that makes bitcoin the only possible blokcchain that could ever pull this off. That might also probably require you to believe that somethign other than proof of work could handle being a store of value as secure and trustable as proof of work, I think proof of stake is very close and has that potential, but I'm pretty sure everyone would here would disagree for some reasons.

Because $DAG is doing everything better

yupgup12

DAG tech is overhyped anyways. It's not actually any faster/better than block chain tech. DAG has much faster finality but can only process a transaction at a time. So it has no throughout capability. That results in it not really being than blockchain in anyway meaningful way

CryptoByline

This is much closer to what DAG networks were supposed to become from the start. MoveVM combined with Mystcieti sounds promising if they can really deliver 50k+ TPS and subsecond finality. The big question is adoption. Who is going to be the first to deploy serious dApps on it?

Aconyminomicon

AI shill post because ETH is losing dev's left and right. This technology is old and not even complete. There are several other DLT's (DAG's, Hashgraphs', etc) that are far more complex and efficient than a very old blockchain that can't scale and has an entire layer 2 ecosystem, where as other chains don't need layer 2's and are already sharding.

I don't think you can compare all cryptos it depends pretty definitively on the technology being used. Blockchain, DAG, Hashgraph, etc... everything has a trade off.

Rekit1987

Kaspa — interesting pick. It’s been getting a lot of hype lately for its tech and speed, but yeah, like anything in crypto, it’s not without risks. Here’s why some people might see Kaspa (KAS) as a bad investment — or at least a high-risk one: ⸻ 1. It’s Still Super Early • Kaspa is newer and relatively unproven in real-world use compared to projects like Bitcoin or Ethereum. • It hasn’t gone through major bear markets yet — no one knows how it’ll hold up long term. ⸻ 2. Inflationary Tokenomics (for now) • Kaspa has a high emission rate (lots of coins being mined) — this creates sell pressure. • Even though it’s deflationary over time, early investors may face downward pressure from miners dumping. ⸻ 3. Limited Real-World Adoption • Cool tech (DAG-based PoW) doesn’t mean much if no one’s building on it or using it. • So far, Kaspa lacks strong DeFi, NFT, or dApp ecosystems — which limits its stickiness and utility. ⸻ 4. Speculative Hype Cycles • KAS pumped hard in the last few months — and what goes up fast in crypto usually… yeah, you know. • A lot of buyers could be exit liquidity for early miners or VC whales. ⸻ 5. Competes in a Niche Crowd • It’s trying to solve the “fast PoW” problem, but so are projects like Nexa, Ergo, and even Litecoin with MWEB. • It’s not clear Kaspa will win that race, especially without major partnerships or institutional attention. ⸻ 6. Centralization Risk (Maybe) • Some critics argue the mining is concentrated, or that the dev team has a lot of control. • Not a major red flag yet, but worth watching. ⸻ Summary: Kaspa is cool tech, but high risk. It’s probably more of a speculative play than a long-term “blue chip” investment — at least for now. If you believe in the vision and don’t mind the risk, it might be worth a small moonbag. But if you’re looking for stability or utility-driven projects, it’s still early days. Want a pros list too? Or are you debating between Kaspa and something else right now?

Future_Bright7777

RE your silly #2 point: Hashgraph can do 400,000 transactions per second with sharding enabled. Finality in 3 seconds. Mathematically, aBFT consensus is the most secure running on a DAG (not blockchain), with transactions costing 1/100th of a penny fixed to the USD with marginal energy consumed and its all on Linux Foundation as an open source stack. Yeah, any of the 5000 other projects can do that. Bullshit. It is unmatched and you simply are uninformed or are biased towards your project. Technically, your statement has zero merit.

Curious-Still

Was a big fan of KAS in the past.  It is truly the best tech in the crypto space that meets the trilemma requirements better than anything else.  It really is what bitcoin should have been.   However, Kaspa's possibly fatal flaw, is that it is an experiment in rapid emission PoW tech which requires mass adoption by the time all the tokens are mined or there will be issues securing the chain as once all coins are mined miners will only be paid by transaction fees.  It's over 90% mined and adoption is worse than it was 1 yr ago.   When KRC20s launched the chain technically did not do down, but the mempool congestion made it unusable so that also put me off as it's not clear that this will really improve enough when kaspa moves to 10 bps.  Also marketing and industry connections suck.  The community is strong but nothing like shib or ada or xrp.  So not sure if the adoption will materialize.  I sure hope it does as kaspa is what crypto should be in terms of fair launch and decentralization. There's something new (Keeta, KTA) that's trying to do what kaspa sought out (DAG, payments), but via proof of stake and with better backing from, for example Erich Schmidt of Google fame and better marketing.  And also has some new interesting tech to help with adoption, especially as far as RWA and institutional adoption is concerned.   Other than that, as far as high throughput, general use, blockchains with low friction, I feel like, despite all its issues, solana will be what we've got for now.   I don't hold any sol btw.

Hey, you came at me, shilling, assuming about what I'm missing out on, proposing a derivative thesis, that I've seen and heard before. I get it, it's cheap, but, it has a large circulating supply, and you can throw some subjective BFT language in it, I've already had funds stolen from me on a DAG, won't touch it ever again. The community wasn't helpful in researching the loss, big institutions don't really want that uncertainty it's not a good look.

twilotab

From my notes and observations, mathematically, spoiler there is know universally 'Best'. hedera hashgraph is essentially a DAG like IOTA, that's been around far longer, I even invested in it early on, never again, the security was breached and my investment was rugged, I don't want to get into this more, but experience sways me to the security drivers. I will elaborate below for you. 1. Lack of decentralization > Critics argue this sacrifices the ethos of decentralization that defines crypto. The council holds significant control, including influence over HBAR’s supply release (50 billion total, with gradual unlocks). This raises concerns about counterparty risk—could the council manipulate the network or token economics to favor corporate interests over individual users? For purists, this feels more like a "centralized DLT" than a true cryptocurrency. 2. Utility vs Speculation > Unlike bridge assets like XRP or stablecoins, HBAR’s demand isn’t directly driven by transaction volume in the same speculative way. The council’s control over HBAR releases (e.g., only 41.9 billion in circulation as of now) can suppress price volatility, which some see as price manipulation rather than organic growth. Investors wonder: is HBAR a utility token for a niche DLT, or can it compete as a store of value in a crowded crypto market? 3.Competition Abstraction > The patented nature of hashgraph limits its open-source appeal. Developers can’t fork it or build competing platforms, unlike Ethereum, where innovation thrives through community experimentation. Plus, competitors like Solana, Avalanche, and Polkadot offer similar scalability without the corporate overlay. Can HBAR’s tech edge overcome its restrictive ecosystem and win the DLT race? Maybe, but 4. Adoption vs Perception > The crypto community often views HBAR skeptically due to its "corporate coin" vibe. Early price crashes (e.g., from $0.36 to $0.03 in 2019) and accusations of "smoke and mirrors" (per some YouTube critiques) haunt its reputation. Can Hedera shake this stigma and rally retail support, or will it remain an enterprise darling with limited speculative hype? There is a real culture in the crypto space that is still about true decentralization, you have to decide which side you're on, maybe you play both or maybe you go all in as a cypherpunk. 5. Risk > Reward > Volatility, regulatory risks (given its U.S. base), and the council’s token unlocks loom large. Posts on X highlight fears of centralized supply dumps crashing prices. Plus, newer cryptos carry unproven risks—will hashgraph’s edge hold as the market evolves? It boils down to trust. It's a corporate experiment masquerading as crypto. My advice? Watch adoption metrics (transaction volume, dApp growth) and council moves closely. HBAR’s fate hinges on proving its utility outweighs its trade-offs—but in crypto, perception often trumps reality, so tread wisely!

brandonholm

A blockchain is essentially just a singly linked list, quite an inefficient data structure that’s been around a long time. Directed acyclic graphs have also been around a long time and don’t really work well over distributed networks, synchronization is an issue. Sure there are blockchains and other DAG based cryptos that are a lot faster and can do more, but they’re heavily centralized to the point where you might as well just have the company run servers with a proper database which will be even faster.

Pure_Ad_9865

The Hedera Hashgraph consensus algorithm is the mathematical endgame of distributed ledger technology. Unlike blockchains, uses compact hashes instead of large raw data in a graph structure (DAG) to achieve efficient, decentralized consensus. Information spreads through the network with virus-like efficiency, making Hedera (HBAR): * **aBFT-secure** (offering the highest level of security) * **Leaderless with no MEV** (preventing transaction manipulation) * **SHA-384 post-quantum resistant** (future-proof cryptographic security) * **Provable fair ordering** (eliminating miner/validator manipulation) * **Infinitely scalable** without L2s or forks (100,000+ TPS per shard) * **Sub-3-second finality** (near-instant transactions) * **Carbon-negative** (the greenest DLT) * **Low, fixed fees pegged to USD** (\~$0.0001 per transaction) * **Open-source codebase with a vendor-neutral governance model under the Linux Foundation** (Project Hiero) On a technical level, Hedera isn’t just more advanced than other DLTs—it defines the future of decentralized technology and the post-quantum era. For example, it is 3300x more energy-efficient than Ethereum. But, to take Hedera to the next level, we need: * **More aggressive marketing towards retail adoption** * **Community nodes for increased decentralization** Leemon Baird (inventor of Hedera) and Charles Hoskinson have been spending time together recently, proving there’s no need for hate or tribalism. Hedera and Cardano are building the future—together. ❤️

GhostOfMcAfee

My problem with HBAR is the same as it is for all DAG based chains (eg SUI, SEI, etc): lack of decentralization. DAG latency increases with each new node. So, they must limit who can participate. On HBAR, it is a council of undemocratically selected companies. Also, by using EVM they have limited their smart contract throughput.

OneFormal4075

Genuine question here bro, why would you prefer HBAR over Kaspa for example. The creator and ongoing developer of Kaspa wrote the book on DAG. Kaspa had nearly 0 funding and has no VC investment to pay back. Kaspa is tru Nakimoto consensus and was and is a 100% POW fair launch, no team tokens etc. HBAR is like the NOT quiet AS GOOD, POS copy of Kaspa. Is it just because you aren't aware of Kaspa?

Internal_Vibe

Cheers mate! Yeah absolutely, this is just one component of my overall Relational Intelligence ecosystem (think beyond web3). I figured that trust is something that needs to be open to all, transparent and available for anyone to use and implement. In my eyes, it marks the beginning of a shift that puts privacy and data control into the hands of the user. No more usernames and passwords. Want to login to a system? Easy, just open your Dust wallet(Banano / any crypto for that), and use cryptographic message signing to instantly authenticate. It’s verifiable: Only the user has access to their keys. For someone to login to anything of yours, that’s need access to your phone / wallet. Verification through micro transactions: Users can sign smart contracts by simply confirming their digital signature and sending a transaction that gets time stamped on the DAG It all starts with trust, the front door to dust. TL;DR This is just the beginning, I built this in 4 hours, but I’ve been working on this for 7 months now and trust was the missing piece. No more email addresses, send a message to a cryptographic wallet It’s big, and it’s been a battle to get others to see it, but it’s worth it.

But we don't need a Blockchain for that, especially because there's like... Two that run DAG right now, which would kind of be necessary considering the type, location, and volume of Govt transactions.

Fair launch, revolutionary DAG architecture (even if you dont think it's revolutionary, it's at least bringing something truly fresh to cryptoC, unlike 90% of projects) that's proven its the most scalable PoW ever in October last year, and its set soon to become upto 10x faster (and thats just for now). Answers the trilemma. That's why. I've been in this space for 8 years and it's the most excited I've ever been about a project. Only issues i really see are business issues, that's it's fair launch (T1 xchanges hate that) and no marketing. Oh, and it's PoW which gets a bad rap since ETH went PoS and with the green narrative. BUT kaspa network is extremely efficient for a PoW that also answers the trilemma.

Specialist_Ask_7058

That PoW looks pretty unstoppable, so if layered scaling works out to increase the utility/accessibility and bring down the cost of txs then it likely will stay at the top imo. There's tech being built that uses feeless DAG from Nano to be the next gen Lightning Network, so there is tons of potential.

 QUBIC. It was created by @c___f___b who also created NXT and IOTA the first POS and DAG coins. It is a UPOW token that leverages mining to train AGI. Right now it is the fastest decentralised computer in the world. Faster than El Capitan.

devilldog

While it's great to see tech with utility I'm not understanding how this would increase the value of the network. Is processing for AI supposed to have a log of everything sent to the HBAR DAG for data integrity purposes? Does the hardware just create certs and hold it even if air gapped until it can later connect to the network? If so I can see it. If it never needs to connect for consensus I'm not understanding it.
