Title: Can anyone copy or clone Decentralize exchange like Etherdelta? Post by: Mexim on November 07, 2017, 09:54:19 AM I have seen Etherdelta surce code on github , is it open source ?Does this means that anyone can basically just fork it and copy ? Isn’t that bad for the author of etherdelta?

Post by: BTCLovingDude on November 07, 2017, 10:33:01 AM when you are talking about open source projects you have to check out their license. most of them are free to be used by anyone who wants but there may be some with some restrictive licenses.
i checked the Etherdelta Github page and it seems like the developer forgot to set any license for his work! so i guess you are free to use it anyway you like although it is best to contact the developer. also why not contribute to the same project and make that better if you can instead of creating something new!

You can just run it off of your own computer to make sure it's safe every time :)

Hmm it means it's dangerous to put your work on github if you are not willing to let others to copy it , btw does every decentralized project must be open source like Bitcoin? Is altcoin like Ethereum , Dash , Neo etc open source ? Title: Re: Can anyone copy or clone Decentralize exchange like Etherdelta? Post by: minersday on November 07, 2017, 09:06:44 PM If you have a good developer and a nice budget to hire him, then you are able to clone every exchange/website/program that you would like, but yes, maybe you are going to face some legal issues if they discover that you have copied or cloned all their files instead of creating a copycat.
Just be careful, i think that you want to copy this in order to run your own exchange.. but if you do this, a lot of people will think that you are running a fake one because it would be shady to open your exchange and see that it looks exactly like etherdelta.

Ya and trust is the uttermost important element for an cryptocurrency exchange , I didn't plan to just copy etherdelta ;D , I'm learning to become a developer so I want to experience different project development , if ethereum , dash etc is open for copy , I would try to copy all of them Title: Re: Can anyone copy or clone Decentralize exchange like Etherdelta? Post by: Burgergad on December 25, 2017, 06:43:41 PM Well, there are already several projects of decentralized exchanges, such as Etherdelta, and they are very aggressive and are developing their policies. I think that 2018 can become a goth of such projects and exchanges, the future behind them.
