What is KasFinder?
KasFinder is a real-world treasure hunt where you can place and find hidden Kaspa cryptocurrency drops while exploring anywhere in the world. Each drop is marked on the map and contains a physical marker with a unique code that you can claim for Kaspa (KAS) cryptocurrency. Check out the leaderboards for both hidden and claimed drops. If you find a drop, please take the physical marker with you so others don't get confused and think it's still live.
Physical markers can be anything weatherproof and clearly visible - 3D printed plaques screwed into trees, stakes placed in the ground, laminated cards, engraved stones, or any creative solution that displays the code and withstands the elements.
Drop Examples
Here are some creative ways to mark your drops:
Get creative! Any weatherproof marker with the website and code clearly visible will work.
3D Print Files
If you have a 3D printer, you can download these ready-to-print files. They're easily editable to change the drop code using the free OpenSCAD software.
What is Kaspa?
Kaspa is a fast, scalable, and secure cryptocurrency built on a blockDAG architecture. Unlike traditional blockchains, Kaspa can process multiple blocks simultaneously, making it one of the fastest cryptocurrencies available. Learn more at kaspa.org
Get a Kaspa Wallet
You'll need a Kaspa wallet to receive your finds and to fund any drops you place. Which one you want depends on your device:
Out hunting with your phone? Kaspium opens straight from KasFinder with the payment already filled in, so funding a drop is one tap. On a computer, Kastle's browser extension connects to KasFinder directly. (KasWare also works on desktop, and Kastle works on mobile too — you'd just copy the address across by hand.)
How to Place a Drop
- Click on the map where you've left the physical marker
- Enter how many Kaspa you're leaving (minimum 0.5 KAS)
- Add the marker's code and a picture of the drop area
- Complete the transaction
How to Claim a Drop
- Find the drop on the map and click it
- Enter the code from the physical marker
- Enter the Kaspa address you want to be paid to
- The smart contract automatically pays KAS to your wallet
Trustless by design: the KAS sits locked in an on-chain smart contract — nobody, not even us, can touch it. It unlocks only for whoever enters the correct marker code, and pays out automatically. If a drop is never found, the contract refunds the KAS to whoever placed it after 180 days.

Fees
Every collected drop has a small 1% fee, which goes towards running and hosting KasFinder. The other 99% goes straight to whoever finds the drop.
On very small drops the fee is a flat 0.025 KAS instead of 1% — the Kaspa network rejects transactions that create extremely small outputs, so a minimum fee keeps small drops collectable. The 1% rate applies to any drop of 2.5 KAS or more.
