Kaspa’s big moment finally arrived: smart contracts are live via Kasplex Layer-2. This isn’t just a tech box-check. EVM compatibility means Ethereum builders can port apps over with minimal friction, and the stack now includes ZK rollups, KRC-20 support, and native microtransactions. In short, the rails are ready for real usage. The question is whether the chart is ready too.
What you'll learn 👉
What the Kaspa chart says
Since mid-August, KAS/USDT has moved sideways to slightly down, with lower highs and choppy rebounds. The current price hovers around $0.077–$0.078. A sharp wick in early September tagged roughly $0.0727 before buyers stepped in. More recently, the price Kaspa has been bouncing between ~$0.076 support and ~$0.082 resistance, with a heavier supply pocket up at $0.085–$0.090 where prior rallies stalled.
Put simply: momentum eased, liquidity thinned, and we’ve been stuck in a range while the upgrade news digests.
- RSI (4H) is sitting in the high-40s to mid-50s, which is neutral. No clear overbought/oversold edge; it’s a wait-for-direction read.
- Net shorts have crept higher through September, while net longs look flat to slightly softer. That tilt says traders have been leaning cautious into the upgrade.
- Open interest delta has been inconsistent with more muted prints lately, which lines up with the range-bound price: not much fresh leverage piling in yet.
Net: sentiment isn’t euphoric – the crowd is skeptical, which can be a decent backdrop if a genuine catalyst grabs flow.
Key levels I’m watching
- Support: $0.076 (range floor). Lose this and $0.073 comes into view, then $0.070 on a deeper sweep.
- Range mid: ~$0.079–$0.080. Reclaims here often precede a push to range highs.
- Resistance: $0.082 first, then $0.085–$0.090. That upper band is the gatekeeper; multiple rejections live there.
A clean 4H/12H close above $0.085–$0.090 followed by a successful retest would finally shift structure back to bullish and put $0.10–$0.105 on the table.
The Kasplex L2 + EVM combo lowers developer friction dramatically. If we start seeing real deployments – DEX volume, KRC-20 issuance, L2 activity and fees- flows can rotate in fast. The market has been patient (and honestly, a bit bored) with Kaspa’s price this quarter; tangible usage would be the spark.
Kaspa price prediction (near term)
Base case, continued range while builders ship: $0.075–$0.085 chop as the market gauges early L2 traction.
Bull case, breakout on adoption signals: reclaim $0.082, crack $0.085–$0.090, then momentum legs toward $0.10–$0.105 with extension possible if on-chain metrics pop.
Bear case, post-launch fade: lose $0.076, quick probe to $0.073, with a risk of a liquidity sweep into $0.070 before buyers try again.
Kaspa finally has the tooling to match the vision. Price has lagged, but that also means expectations aren’t stretched. Watch the $0.085–$0.090 ceiling and early Kasplex usage – those two will likely decide whether KAS stays stuck… or catches up.
