My view on your discussion is that ICP And Kaspa compete for different use cases (disclaimer: I know almost nothing about Kaspa). I think Kaspa (like SOL and others) is focusing on massive amounts of committed transactions per second, kind of like a scalable Bitcoin, it's for transacting value at scale. ICP on the other hand is like a scalable Ethereum, it's for running smart contracts at scale. While ICP also commits a respectable number of transactions per second, it's more about the computations the go into those transactions. You could see transactions as a smart contract's way of writing down the result of a bunch of work. There's overlap, I see smart contracts are on Kaspa's roadmap, and again ICP can do pretty respectable numbers of pure token transactions per seconds, but in the end they are optimized for quite different use cases. The nice thing is part of ICP's value proposition is Chain Fusion integration of other blockchains. That means that when an ICP smart contract needs very fast transaction speeds, it leaves that features to the experts (Kaspa, SOL, etc) and just integrates with it, so every chain can keep doing what it does best.
