Our model projects Kaspa at $0.0075783 in 2030 and $0.0134 by 2036 — -68.9% against the last daily close of $0.0433, in the base case. The 2030 range runs from $0.00022869 in the bear case to $0.1228 in the bull case.

Why below today's price? Most altcoins lose ground to Bitcoin over a full cycle — between the 2021 and 2025 peaks, only 3.5% of those we measured gained on it — and the model starts Kaspa from that base rate. Why Most Altcoins Lose to Bitcoin, Cycle After Cycle

Year-end central forecast and the band around it. Select a year for the model's reasoning. In 2026, a quarter that has already begun and has no forecast of its own shows the observed closing price instead: “close” once the quarter is over, “latest close” while it is still under way.

Kaspa: the case for and against

What our documented research establishes about the project itself, with its sources. It is an assessment of the project, not the reason behind the number: the price model reads price series only.

Kaspa (KAS) is an established Proof-of-Work project utilizing a novel BlockDAG architecture created by credible academic researchers. Its fair launch model, lack of pre-mine, and continuous open-source development (such as the Rust node refactor) give it strong fundamental trust. Search for adverse evidence revealed no active lawsuits, exit scams, or catastrophic exploits, but highlighted two notable risk factors: the core consensus codebase lacks a formal independent third-party security audit, and mining hash rate has become concentrated among ASIC manufacturers. Additionally, the asset lacks spot listings on major venues like Binance and Coinbase.

Strengths
Founded by academic researchers including Dr. Yonatan Sompolinsky, co-author of GHOSTDAG whose research was cited in the Ethereum whitepaper. wiki.kaspa.org ↗
Launched via a fair-launch model with zero pre-mine, no venture capital allocation, no pre-sale, and no initial team allocations. — kaspa.org
Maintains an active open-source codebase including a complete node rewrite to Rust (Rusty Kaspa) and progress toward zero-knowledge verification capabilities. github.com ↗
Established track record operating through full market cycles since November 2021 while maintaining substantial liquidity on major exchanges like Kraken and Bybit. www.coinbase.com ↗
Risks
The core Layer-1 BlockDAG protocol and consensus codebase have not completed a formal third-party independent security audit. www.reddit.com ↗
Mining activity has rapidly shifted from accessible GPUs to specialized ASIC hardware, increasing potential hash rate centralization among major manufacturers. 2miners.com ↗
Lacks spot market listings on top-tier exchanges such as Binance and Coinbase, partly due to the absence of a corporate foundation treasury to fund listing agreements. coinspot.io ↗
Smart contract functionality and token standards (KRC-20) remain early in development compared to dedicated smart contract platforms. onekey.so ↗
Red flags
Lack of a completed third-party independent security audit for the core Layer-1 protocol codebase.

Methodology
What the model reads

Bitcoin's trajectory multiplied by today's KAS/BTC ratio and a drift measured across the whole altcoin universe. Nothing is fitted to KAS alone — every per-coin parameter that was tested lost to the shared drift.

Model confidence
Model confidence for KAS in 2030

The band is built to hold the price 82% of the time. At a shorter horizon, a backtest in today’s market found such bands holding the price only 59% of the time, and a figure further out cannot claim more — so we publish 5.9/10.

Only the nearest horizons rest on a backtest. Later years carry a declared level — the band’s design level, capped by our research score — that no backtest can confirm yet; where one found the band holding the price less often, we publish that lower figure.

Frequently asked questions

What will Kaspa be worth in 2030?
The base case puts KAS at $0.0075783 in 2030, between $0.00022869 and $0.1228. The band is built to hold the price 82% of the time; at a shorter horizon a backtest in today’s market found such bands holding the price only 59% of the time, and a figure further out cannot claim more, so we publish 5.9/10.
What is the Kaspa price prediction for 2027?
For 2027, the base case puts KAS at $0.0245, between $0.00252921 and $0.1337. The band is built to hold the price 85% of the time; the published confidence, 6.4/10, sits lower — it starts from what our documented research establishes about the project itself, and nothing raises it back.
How high can Kaspa go by 2036?
The top of the model’s 2036 uncertainty band is $0.7344. The base case remains $0.0134 — read the range, not the single number.
What will Kaspa be worth in 10 years?
Our furthest horizon is 2036, about ten years out: the base case puts KAS at $0.0134, between $0.00036882 and $0.7344. The band is built to hold the price 65% of the time; at a shorter horizon a backtest in today’s market found such bands holding the price only 59% of the time, and a figure further out cannot claim more, so we publish 5.9/10.
Is Kaspa a good long-term investment?
Our base case for Kaspa in 2036 is -68.9% against today’s price — below where it trades now — inside a band from $0.00036882 to $0.7344. That is not financial advice, and not a recommendation either way.
