Developer crono_walker has released a testnet for KOB, a decentralized spot limit order book operating directly on Kaspa's base layer. The system allows traders to set specific buy and sell prices for KCC-20 tokens without relying on a central authority to manage keys or match orders. The software for executing trades can be run by anyone.
The project uses programmable features that arrived with Kaspa's Toccata hard fork on June 30, 2026, which brought native covenants and zero-knowledge proofs to mainnet. Before launch, KasperoLabs ran 23,874 hostile transactions against the contracts without finding bugs, though developers note this was not a formal audit. The testnet remains in developer preview with no token value.
