"The case for the uniqueness of fast pow tl;dr Finality has two moving parts: (i) fast inclusion (= high bps how quickly a tx gets into a block) and (ii) fast confirmations (= how quickly that tx becomes irreversible). Any system with rapid block production can achieve the first. The second is where the tension shows: in pos fast confirmations press directly against decentralization.

"Native onchain smart contracts will lead to centralization due to increased hardware requirements on L1 nodes as well as significantly complicate the L1. We want Kaspa L1 to focus on data throughput and sequencing and not on computational tasks and complex state. The point of vprogs is to balance these tradeoffs use zk for offchain computation and yet add just enough components to L1 so that the interaction between zk programs is synchronous and free and provides the same unified dev and user experience as native L1 programmability"
