In our last Kaspa weekly price prediction, we said the KAS price would likely remain trapped between the key $0.032 support zone and the $0.037 resistance area unless buyers stepped in with stronger volume. That played out almost exactly as expected. Kaspa failed to break higher, but sellers also struggled to trigger a major breakdown for most of the week.
Despite the weak KAS price action, the network continued growing. Kaspa has now processed more than 2.17 billion transactions and surpassed 540,000 wallets. At the same time, 30-day volatility has dropped to 60.1%, well below its historical average of 105.6%, leaving traders watching for a bigger move as the Toccata hard fork draws closer.

News Driving Kaspa (KAS) Price
The biggest event on the horizon remains the Toccata hard fork. Kaspa’s core developers completed the final Testnet-10 rehearsal on May 18, reducing technical uncertainty ahead of the mainnet rollout.
Toccata is expected to introduce native KRC-20 tokens, SilverScript covenant programming, and zero-knowledge verification tools. If successful, Kaspa would move beyond simple payments and become a programmable Proof-of-Work blockchain capable of supporting DeFi applications and other advanced use cases.
Another positive development came from the launch of Kaskad. The lending platform went live on May 25. It lets people borrow stablecoins like USDT by putting up KAS as collateral. The platform launched with $250,000 in liquidity, and its governance token, KSKD, got listed on MEXC. This gives KAS a new use case beyond just sending money and could help grow activity on the network.
Looking further out, investors are still watching Kaspa’s roadmap. After Toccata, the next big step is the DAGKnight upgrade, planned for the third quarter of 2026. Beyond that, the network wants to reach 100 blocks per second and add native parallel smart contract execution through something called vProgs by 2027. Those are big goals, but they keep supporting the idea that Kaspa has room to grow.
Here’s What the Kaspa Chart Is Showing
We had a look at the chart, and the short-term trend remains weak. The KAS price has been forming lower highs and lower lows since peaking above $0.040 earlier this month. Sellers have controlled most rallies, preventing buyers from establishing a sustained recovery.
The RSI is near 34, which places KAS close to oversold territory. That does not guarantee a bounce, but it shows selling pressure has become stretched compared to earlier in the month. Buyers have started protecting the $0.030 area. That is now the most important support level on the chart.
The MACD is still negative, but the histogram has started to flatten. That means selling pressure is slowing down. If buyers can hold the $0.030 support line, a bounce toward $0.032 and then $0.034 could happen. However, a clean break below support would likely invite another wave of selling.

How High Will the Kaspa Price Go This Week?
Likely Case
The most likely thing is that KAS stays stuck between $0.030 and $0.033. Traders seem to be waiting for more details about the Toccata upgrade before they place any big bets. Stable Bitcoin prices could help KAS remain inside this range through most of the week.
Bullish Case
If buyers hold the line at $0.030 and the wider crypto market feels better, the KAS price could bounce back toward $0.034. From there, it could test the $0.037 resistance. Strong interest in the coming hard fork and steady growth in the ecosystem could bring in new buyers and help push the price back toward where it was in May.
Bearish Case
The bad case starts if the KAS price falls below $0.030. Then sellers could aim for $0.028. If Bitcoin gets weaker and market mood turns worse, a drop toward $0.026 could happen too.
However, Kaspa starts the new week under pressure after falling back to a major support zone near $0.030. Even with weak price action, the network is still growing. The Kaskad launch and the upcoming Toccata upgrade keep making the project stronger under the surface.
What happens next depends on two things. First, whether buyers can hold this support line. Second, whether the excitement around June’s hard fork turns into real demand for KAS.
