Kaspa & KRC-20 guides —
everything, in order.

The whole free library on one page, laid out the way you'll actually use it: learn the basics, get a wallet, create, mint, buy, sell — and vet every launch for fairness before you put in a single KAS.

1 · Learn

Start here — the basics

New to Kaspa tokens? These explain what KRC-20 is and how it stays non-custodial and fair-launch by default.

🪙What is KRC-20?
Kaspa's token standard explained — how it works, KRC-20 vs ERC-20, and why it's fair-launch by default.
What is Kaspa Toccata?
The hard fork explained — native KRC-20 issuance and programmable Layer 1, in plain English.
🔎What is Kasplex?
The open-source indexer behind every KRC-20 token — how Kaspa tracks tokens with no smart contract, and why that makes them non-custodial.
⚖️What is a fair launch?
The idea this whole radar is built on — same price, same shot for everyone. What it means, and why "fair" isn't the same as "safe."
📖KRC-20 & Kaspa glossary
Every token term in plain English — deploy, mint, pre-mint, fair launch, DAA score, PSKT, rug pull. Filterable A–Z.

Vet a launch before you ape

The reason the radar exists. Read the distribution before you mint — a grade is a smoke detector, not a guarantee.

🚩How to spot a KRC-20 rug pull
The 5 on-chain signals of a whale-loaded or rug-shaped launch — the exact model our radar grades A–F.
🎁Is the Kaspa airdrop real?
No — Kaspa never did an airdrop, so every "claim your KAS airdrop" site is a scam. Spot the fakes; get in safely.
🔒Can you stake Kaspa?
No native staking — KAS is 100% proof-of-work. What those "stake KAS for X% APY" offers really are, and the safe way in.
⚖️How we grade a fair launch
The full transparent rubric behind every A–F grade — every penalty, published, from public on-chain data. No black box.
Prefer to just watch the board? Open the live Fair-Launch Radar, the top-ranked tokens, or set up launch alerts.

Learn free. Mint fair.

Every guide here is free and non-custodial — you keep your keys throughout. When you're ready to mint an open fair launch, the tool charges a flat 1.75%, about 3× cheaper than the ~5% custodial bots like KSPR, and you sign every transaction from your own wallet. Read the grade first, then decide.
