What does a healthy DAA Score growth rate tell you about the Kaspa network?

A steadily increasing DAA Score is a sign that the Kaspa network is producing blocks normally and operating as expected. The DAA Score is Kaspa's timing metric for difficulty adjustment — it increments with each block, so its growth rate reflects how fast blocks are being produced across the network. If the score climbs at a consistent pace, miners are active and the network is healthy; if growth stalls or slows unexpectedly, it can be an early warning that something is wrong with block production. For a beginner, this means the DAA Score is one of the simplest indicators you can watch to get a quick read on whether the Kaspa network is running smoothly.
