Kaspa just hit a milestone that’s turning heads across the crypto space. On October 5, 2025, the network processed over 158 million transactions in a single day, nearly matching Bitcoin’s entire yearly total.
According to data shared by Kaspa Report, Bitcoin handled roughly 160 million transactions between October 2024 and October 2025. Kaspa did almost the same amount, but in just one day. That’s a jaw‑dropping showcase of scalability and real on‑chain activity from a proof‑of‑work blockchain.

Kaspa Volatility Tightens – Calm Before the Storm?
While the network is breaking records, the KAS price has stayed unusually quiet. As noted by Kaspa Daily, the Bollinger Bands on Kaspa’s weekly chart are squeezing tighter than ever, signaling reduced volatility.
When this happens, it’s often the market’s way of holding its breath. Periods of low volatility like this usually lead to strong moves, either up or down, once traders pick a direction. It’s like a coiled spring building energy, waiting for a breakout moment.
Right now, sentiment around Kaspa is leaning bullish. The fundamentals look stronger than ever, on‑chain metrics are surging, and the project keeps proving its scalability. If this momentum carries into the charts, a breakout could be closer than most expect.

Another key metric to watch is Kaspa’s stock‑to‑flow ratio, which has just crossed 20 and is on pace to surpass silver next month, according to Kaspa Report.
The stock‑to‑flow ratio measures scarcity, how much new supply enters circulation compared to what already exists. The higher the ratio, the more scarce the asset becomes.
For context, silver’s S/F ratio sits slightly above 20, while gold’s is around 60. The fact that Kaspa is already in that conversation says a lot about its long‑term value potential.

What’s Next for KAS Price?
Kaspa’s fundamentals are strong, its network is thriving, and its technicals suggest a breakout setup. The question now is simple, which way does it move?
If history repeats itself, this kind of tightening followed by massive network activity often leads to bullish continuation. Traders are watching the $0.08–$0.09 range closely as a possible breakout zone for KAS price.
Whether it’s this week or next, Kaspa’s combination of explosive network growth and technical compression might be setting the stage for its next major run.
