What are KIPs?

A Kaspa Improvement Proposal (KIP) documents a proposed change or specification for the Kaspa network. Topics include consensus rules, node behavior, network upgrades, and client APIs. This collection lets you read the technical documents and compare their recorded statuses.

KIPs and KCCs

KIPs cover protocol development. Kaspa Calls for Conventions (KCCs) describe shared conventions for applications, covenants, assets, wallets, and other ecosystem tools.
