Kusama is a decentralized ecosystem (permissionless network) created in 2019 by Gavin Wood, founder of Polkadot and co-founder and former CTO of Ethereum. This network is built on Substrate, a blockchain-building toolkit developed by Parity Technologies.
Kusama has a codebase closely resembles Polkadot, one of the most successful interoperable blockchains. The Kusama development team claims that this is Polkadot’s “dedicated” network, which detects and alerts any vulnerabilities or weaknesses in the Polkadot network.
