Kaspa’s long-awaited smart contracts won’t be launching just yet. Kasplex, the first protocol for the Kaspa ecosystem, confirmed that its L2 deployment will be delayed – not because of bugs or technical failures, but to ensure the launch is flawless from the start.
In a statement, the team explained that the L2 is already fully functional, with core testing showing no critical issues. But instead of rushing, Kasplex is introducing an extra testing phase. The goal is to validate hardware requirements, strengthen distributed system architecture, and confirm mechanisms for disaster recovery and high availability.
Among the areas being tested are stack, memory, storage, calldata, node resiliency, and RPC/Relayer services. By addressing these final details, Kasplex aims to guarantee that node operators and users face no difficulties once the Kasplex EVM mainnet goes live.
“Smart Contracts on Kaspa deserve nothing less than perfection,” the team wrote.
What Comes Next
Kasplex stressed that once the third-party testing phase is completed, the mainnet can be activated at any time. Developers already engaged with the project will be notified of expected launch dates directly.
Meanwhile, the ecosystem has several important events and releases on the horizon:
- Kaspa Experience (Berlin, Sept 13, 2025)
- Korea Onchain Symposium (Sept 10, 2025)
- Roadmap release for L1 zkopcode and vProg (Dec 2025)
- Kasplex LUA VM launch, which introduces an “App Store” model for DApp builders on Kaspa.
The delay may disappoint some community members who have been eagerly awaiting smart contract functionality on Kaspa. But Kasplex insists the wait will be worth it, framing the move as a commitment to readiness, security, and user experience.
If all goes according to plan, Kasplex L2 could set a new benchmark for smart contracts and scalability on Kaspa. For now, the community will need to stay patient – as per Kaspa’s team: perfection takes time.
