Great question , and you’re right to raise the concern.

But Kaspa was designed from the ground up to address exactly this scalability-centralization tradeoff. Here’s how:

X. Efficient Consensus (GhostDAG):
Kaspa uses GhostDAG, a blockDAG protocol that allows multiple blocks per second without causing chain splits or orphan storms. This means nodes don’t need to constantly reprocess forks like in Bitcoin under high load — which massively reduces wasted CPU cycles.

X. Compact Block Propagation:
Kaspa propagates blocks with very compact metadata (no need for full re-verification of every block like in Bitcoin forks), making bandwidth use extremely efficient even under high TPS.

X. Pruning + NIPoPoWs (Non-Interactive Proofs of Proof-of-Work):
As you said, pruning helps with storage, but NIPoPoWs let light clients interact with the network securely; this allows for a wide range of devices (even mobile) to validate and use the network without becoming full nodes.

X. Fast Rewards = Decentralized Mining:
By having XXXXXXX block rewards per day, even small miners can be incentivized to join; reducing reliance on massive pools and helping decentralization on the mining side.

X. Rust Rewrite (Ongoing):
Kaspa is being rewritten in Rust specifically to optimize performance and further reduce resource consumption per node.

TL;DR:
Kaspa isn’t scaling by brute force, it’s scaling by redesign.
Not by increasing centralization, but by innovating protocol efficiency.
