As we predicted in our last Kaspa price prediction, if price breaks above $0.078, we might see a retest of the $0.080 range, and this is what we are seeing this weekend.
In the meantime, ‘Kaspa Report’ released another viral thread on X about Kaspa miners and fees.
What you'll learn 👉
Kaspa Miners Celebrate Unprecedented Fee Windfall
Kaspa miners received nearly 1,000,000 KAS in fees yesterday, primarily from KRC-20 token minting. This single-day payout eclipses the total fees received by miners over the entirety of the preceding month by more than threefold. The sudden surge comes at a crucial time, as just days earlier, Kaspa Report had noted that fees paid to miners had fallen to the lowest level in six months, pushing the network deeper into what they described as the “miner capitulation phase.”
This dramatic turnaround demonstrates why miner capitulation is typically temporary. As Kaspa’s price and miner fees increase, the capitulation process naturally slows down, and mining activity eventually rebounds. This pattern is common in cryptocurrency markets and can actually signal a cyclical market bottom. When capitulation begins to reverse, the same feedback mechanisms that were suppressing prices often begin driving them higher instead.

The Crescendo Hardfork: KAS Mining Incentives
The upcoming Crescendo Hardfork will further optimize mining incentives for Kaspa by implementing a change to the reward structure. The network will switch from a per-block reward to a per-second reward system, while simultaneously increasing the block creation rate tenfold.
This architectural change will allow ten times as many miners to be rewarded per second, drastically reducing the waiting time for miners to be compensated for the hashrate they contribute to the network. Kaspa Report previously explained this with a simplified analogy: imagine choosing between two coal mines where one pays daily while the other pays once every 6,000 days (16 years) – the choice becomes obvious.
The significance of this change for decentralized mining cannot be overstated. By making rewards more frequent and predictable, Kaspa is positioned to capture hashrate from other proof-of-work networks. This increase in network mining decentralization and hashrate will also strengthen Kaspa’s censorship resistance – a critical feature that separates truly decentralized networks from those where decision-making authority rests with a small group or even a single individual.
With these developments underway and the recent surge in mining fees, those betting against Kaspa may indeed be in for a surprise as the network shows signs of a potential comeback.
