(CSPR)

Casper is a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) Layer-1 blockchain built on the CBC (Correct-by-Construction) Casper specification. It was designed to solve the 'blockchain trilemma' by being simultaneously secure, scalable, and decentralized. A core purpose of Casper is to simplify blockchain adoption for enterprises and traditional developers, providing a robust and adaptable foundation for real-world business applications and making smart contract development more accessible using familiar programming languages.

Upgradeable Smart Contracts are a unique technical feature of the Casper network. Unlike most blockchains where smart contracts are permanently immutable once deployed, Casper allows developers to modify and update the logic of a contract even after it has been launched on-chain. Crucially, these updates maintain the contract's original on-chain address. This capability offers immense flexibility for enterprises that need to fix bugs, implement new features, or adapt to evolving business requirements without the disruption of deploying entirely new contracts.

Yes, the CSPR token is inflationary. Casper has an annual inflation rate, targeting approximately 8%, which serves to incentivize and reward validators for their critical role in securing the network. However, users who stake their CSPR tokens can typically earn attractive staking rewards. These rewards are currently estimated to be between 8% and 16% APY, which is generally designed to offset the effects of the network's inflation for active participants, preserving the value of their holdings over time.

Most users stake CSPR by delegating their tokens to an active validator. This process is typically performed via the cspr.live block explorer or other compatible wallets and interfaces. Rewards for staking are distributed at the end of every "Era," which is a predefined period on the Casper network lasting approximately 2 hours. During an Era, validators process transactions and secure the network, and at its conclusion, rewards are calculated and added to the staked balances of delegators, providing a structured reward distribution.

Casper 2.0 represents the most significant upgrade in the project's history, introducing several foundational improvements. Key features include a Unified Account/Contract Model which simplifies interactions between user accounts and smart contracts, enhancing efficiency. It also introduces Fee Burning, a mechanism that will destroy a portion of transaction fees, positively impacting tokenomics by reducing the circulating supply. Additionally, the upgrade aims for significantly Faster Block Times, targeting approximately 8 seconds, to provide a much smoother and more responsive user experience for all network applications.

As of early 2026, Casper has a strong strategic focus on the tokenization of Real-World Assets (RWAs). The network is actively pursuing initiatives to bring tangible, institutional-grade assets onto the blockchain. Recent high-profile partnerships, such as with AmeriCorp, are illustrative of this direction, aiming to tokenize various forms of infrastructure and financial instruments, including things like parking infrastructure. This endeavor seeks to leverage blockchain's inherent transparency and immutability for enhanced auditing, management, and liquidity of traditional assets, positioning Casper as a key player in the evolving RWA landscape.
