Igra Network's $IGRA auction pulls 2.8M KAS in first day as former DAGLabs engineers launch EVM layer on Kaspa's BlockDAG

Igra brings EVM compatibility to Kaspa's BlockDAG via an L2 that settles directly on L1 — EVM transactions are embedded in Kaspa transaction payloads (prefix 0x94) and mined on-chain. The team uses Kaspa's native GHOSTDAG consensus for finality rather than a separate validator set. 2.8M KAS on day one suggests strong demand for smart contract functionality on what's been a pure PoW/UTXO chain. Worth watching how the EVM execution layer handles Kaspa's 1 BPS throughput.
