About Kusama

Kusama (KSM) is a cryptocurrency that powers a scalable, experimental blockchain network designed for innovation and rapid development. Often called Polkadot's 'canary network,' Kusama allows developers to test new blockchain projects in a real-world environment before launching them on more established platforms. Its core technology enables multiple blockchains to interoperate, sharing security and data seamlessly. KSM is used for governance, staking, and bonding—meaning holders can vote on network upgrades, earn rewards by securing the chain, or reserve slots for new projects. With a focus on risk-taking and iteration, Kusama serves as a playground for cutting-edge decentralized applications (dApps) and blockchain experiments. Its vibrant ecosystem attracts builders looking to push the boundaries of Web3 technology.

Kusama is Polkadot's sister network with specialized blockchains built using Substrate. It provides a testing ground for developers to deploy new projects with a faster governance cycle. Projects can also choose to use Kusama or Polkadot as their primary environment. Many choose to run parachains on both, with Kusama as a pre-production environment. KSM is the native token of Kusama. Holders of KSM, along with an elected council, make governance decisions in a democratic process.

Developers can rent space at a low cost to build projects on Kusama using slots allocated in three ways. First, users can book them through a permissionless auction by locking up their KSM tokens for a specified period. Smaller projects that may not be able to inhabit an entire parachain can opt for parathreads, a smaller version of parachains with the same API but executed on a pay-as-you-go basis with an auction for each block.
