About Kusama

Kusama and its native token KSM are developed on the Substrate blockchain, using a codebase identical to Polkadot’s DOT. Both are created by the same founding team, Parity Technologies. What distinguishes Kusama is its purpose to provide a testbed for developers to try out new blockchain applications and technologies, before full integration with Polkadot’s or other blockchains. Kusama delivers high interoperability and scalability for developers as its main features, while in terms of market capitalization the project has shown tremendous growth since its inception in late 2019.
