Kaspa (KAS) just pulled off a clean technical breakout – and traders are watching closely.

After weeks of quiet accumulation, KAS finally surged past the key $0.10 barrier and is now trading around $0.108, up over 11% on the day. Not only did it reclaim that psychological level, but it also closed above its 200-day moving average ($0.092), something it hasn’t done consistently since October 2023.

This breakout marks a serious shift in trend.

Zooming into the daily chart, Kaspa has been steadily building momentum since late June. The RSI is pushing into the 76–77 zone, which puts it in overheated territory, but that’s typical during strong uptrends.

This is the first time in nearly a year that KAS has convincingly reclaimed its long-term moving average. Last time that happened, the price ran from $0.10 to nearly $0.22 within two weeks.

So is it time to buy?

The Kaspa chart looks bullish, no doubt. But the price is already up almost 40% in two weeks, so short-term risk is real.

If you’re long-term bullish, averaging in is fine – but don’t FOMO all at once. A retest of the breakout zone around $0.095–$0.10 could offer a cleaner entry.

And if you feel like you missed the move? You might want to keep an eye on Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) – a project offering something KAS never did: smart contracts and DeFi for Bitcoin.

Bitcoin Hyper is not a copy of Kaspa – it’s a next-gen Layer-2 scaling solution built for Bitcoin, using the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) to bring lightning-fast speeds and smart contracts to the world’s largest crypto. Native token, $HYPER, is right now in viral presale.

While Kaspa focuses on ultra-fast Layer-1 PoW blocks, Bitcoin Hyper builds on top of BTC itself, using advanced tech from the Solana ecosystem to unlock real-world utility.

Here’s what makes it stand out:

And yes – users retain full control of their assets. No centralized custody, no middlemen.

Kaspa’s price action shows real strength right now, and if it holds above $0.10, the path toward $0.12 and $0.15 opens up quickly.

But if you’re hunting for something earlier, something with more narrative upside and exposure to Bitcoin + DeFi + speed, then Bitcoin Hyper’s presale might be the better play right now.

With over $4 million already raised, momentum is building fast – and for once, it’s not just another meme coin.
