In case of XMR is not the user that holds the private key?

BTW their webwallet (mymonero.com) is one of the best from the point of user friendliness.

The supply is hardly infinite.

..and a 50% premine which broke records back then John  

@jl777 is not a no name. I am @anonymint and I personally communicate with him and was aware this project was coming. I am not anonymous. Go to my Steemit account for my photos and LinkedIn.

You can see he was having technical interactions with the Zcash team on their Github.

James is exclusively a C programmer. He is good enough C programmer, productive, and sincere about the work he does.

That doesn't necessarily mean he completes every project on time, or that he has good judgement about features or marketing. He had accomplished some major projects in the Nxt ecosystem, and some of those remained half-baked (and still being worked on) such as Bitcoin Dark (which is apparently transitioning to Komodo so he can fulfill his obligation to BTCD investors).

My understanding is there are others helping him on the marketing this time. And I would presume also others advising him on feature set.

James is not a good GUI programmer, so make sure he has someone on his team who is good at that.

I can't vouch for the quality of this project, because I have not been tracking it. But I can vouch that @jl777 is a legit programmer. He is serious and coding every day without fail (know this because I was chatting with him daily about programming during some periods in the past, not lately). I have had numerous technical discussions with him in private chat.

Apparently nobody knows his identity. And @DecentralizedEconomics is incorrect to claim he once ran for mayor of San Diego. James comes from financial background where he was a programmer. That is all I know about him.

I was aware months ago he was going with the name Komodo.


The speculators I know have gained wealth in BTC by buying ICOs and holding for the 10X gain. You've got to select the quality projects that will have follow through, have experienced marketing, and have some whales who are accumulating. @jl777 knows some of these people. Again I can't vouch for the future success of this speculation.


I am not currently vested in Komodo, except if you can consider my relationship with @jl777 as a conflict of interest or form of vestment. I have no funds to make a highly speculative long-term (i.e. > 3 months) payoff investment at this time.

Note I would prefer if @jl777 had another quality developer on his team. (Edit: I see some other anonymous devs are listed, but afaics we don't know who they are or what work they have done in the past)

I don't understand what this means.... executive rights?

I avoided looking at ANY comment on this..
I have a question..
How many ICO coins were made ?
