Why does Kaspa's L1 transaction ordering matter for L2 networks?

Kaspa's L1 determines the order in which transactions are accepted, and any L2 network built on top must execute transactions in that exact same order. L2 networks rely on Kaspa for both consensus and data availability — the L1 decides which transactions are valid and ranks them, while the L2 reads those results and runs its own logic on top. Because the execution order on L2 must match the acceptance order on L1, even small ambiguities in Kaspa's ordering would break L2 applications. For a beginner, this means Kaspa's blockDAG consensus isn't just for moving KAS coins — it can serve as the trusted, ordered foundation for entire application platforms built on top of it.
