How does Kaspa's KIP-0010 enable scripts to inspect transaction properties?
KIP-0010 introduces enhanced opcodes that allow Kaspa scripts to directly examine and validate transaction properties, enabling complex conditional logic inside a script. In most basic blockchains, a script can only check signatures and simple conditions — it cannot look inward at the transaction itself to ask questions like 'what amount is being sent?' or 'where is it going?' With transaction introspection, scripts gain the ability to enforce those kinds of rules automatically, without trusting any outside party. For a beginner, this means Kaspa smart-contract-like scripts can become significantly more powerful, enforcing detailed rules about how funds move rather than just who is allowed to move them.
