Market stats to assist in determining optimal times for purchasing Kusama

Maybe you just need to know more about it. Let us briefly guide you through the most interesting Kusama facts from our Bitget Academy articles. Learn why people buy Kusama today!

What is Kusama (KSM)?

Kusama is a popular network that has been making waves in the crypto world since 2019. It was launched by the team behind Polkadot. Kusama is often referred to as a 'canary network' for Polkadot, which means that it is a test network for Polkadot's technology.

Kusama is unique in several ways. Firstly, it is designed to be a more experimental version of Polkadot. This means that developers can test new ideas and features on Kusama before implementing them on Polkadot. Secondly, Kusama has a faster development cycle than Polkadot, which means that new features can be implemented more quickly. Finally, Kusama is designed to be more community-driven than Polkadot, which means that the community has more say in the direction of the project.

How Kusama (KSM) Works

Kusama is built on a unique multi-chain architecture that allows it to support multiple blockchains simultaneously. Each blockchain on Kusama is called a 'parachain' and is designed to be interoperable with other parachains. These parachains communicate with each other through a central relay chain that is responsible for coordinating transactions and ensuring their validity.

One of the key benefits of this architecture is that it allows Kusama to support a wide range of use cases and applications. Because each parachain can be customized to meet the specific needs of a particular use case, developers have a great deal of flexibility and control over how their applications are built and deployed.

Additionally, Kusama's multi-chain architecture allows for greater scalability and throughput than traditional blockchain platforms. By supporting multiple blockchains, Kusama is able to process a much larger volume of transactions than a single-chain platform could handle. This makes it well-suited for applications that require high levels of throughput, such as financial applications or gaming platforms.

How Many Kusama (KSM) Tokens Are in Circulation?

KSM does not have a hard cap on total supply. 8,470,098 KSM tokens are in circulation.
