What is the Kaspa genesis proof?

The genesis proof is a cryptographic audit trail that lets anyone verify Kaspa's starting state was clean. It works by following a chain of pruning-point block hashes — snapshots the network keeps of its own history — backward all the way to the very first block, called the genesis. At that point, the proof checks that the UTXO commitment (a fingerprint of every unspent coin in existence) matched an empty set, meaning zero coins existed before the network went live. This matters for beginners because it turns a trust claim — 'we didn't premine' — into a verifiable mathematical fact anyone can check.
