How many blocks per second does Kaspa produce?

Kaspa currently operates at 1 block per second on its main network, with 10 blocks per second already running on testnet. In a traditional blockchain like Bitcoin, a new block is added roughly every ten minutes — Kaspa's 1-per-second rate is dramatically faster. The testnet figure of 10 blocks per second is a live experiment proving the architecture can scale further. Core developers and researchers are working toward 100 blocks per second, a rate at which even a miner holding just 1% of the total network hashrate would produce on average one block every second. For a beginner, higher block rates mean faster transaction inclusion and a more responsive network, without sacrificing the security that proof-of-work provides.
