Kind of crazy how in this industry if a large account is passionate about it it’s always seen as paid.

> **Visual Note:** A stylish woman wearing sunglasses, a black leather coat layered over a white graphic tank top and hoodie, poses in an industrial setting—visually echoing the post's metaphor of Bitcoin as the prominent "outer layer" of PoW money, with other layers (like Kaspa) waiting underneath.

Take a look at this outfit.

The black leather jacket is the outermost layer, the most prominent one. But underneath, there's still a hoodie, a T-shirt, and plenty of other"

 is still one of the projects you should check out.

It is not because PoW is better.

Because Kaspa is asking whether you can keep the core idea behind proof-of-work while dramatically improving the architecture around it.

The post is being criticized by users frustrated over the long delay in adding this basic feature since 2023.

> **Visual Note:** A TradingView daily candlestick chart of KAS/USDT on Binance (dated August 22, 2026) illustrates the textbook double bottom pattern referenced in the post, with two clear troughs near $0.027 labeled "Bottom 1" and "Bottom 2," followed by a neckline resistance around $0.035 and a projected "Target" above $0.06, supporting the caption's bullish breakout thesis.  

> 
> "$KAS
 / Kaspa

printing a textbook double bottom formation  KAS has formed two strong lows around the ~$0.025–$0.027 zone, with buyers stepping in and pushing price back toward the ~$0.035 resistance.

A clean breakout above ~$0.04 could confirm the reversal and open the door"

The image humorously conveys a sense of calm indifference or "not my problem," contrasting with the post's message that while many crypto investors face manipulation issues, $KAS (Kaspa) holders can relax and enjoy a pump week due to its transparent, manipulation-resistant nature.
