Not a single ICO has fared well recently.
WRONG! STRAT has been already 6x ICO and still growing. So your opinion doesn't make any sense. Not forget IOTA!!  IOTA was a manipulated scam coin that is not even available on exchanges. I wouldn't draw that comparison into well advertised ICO's like this. Quite a claim - how was it manipulated? |

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

outstanding've already collected funds to 2,235.24215949 BTC
2235 BTC (collected so far in ICO) + 6800 BTC (from BTCD swap) = 9035 BTC marketcap And there's still about a month more to go, bad thing is that it might not leave much room to grow in terms of price per coin/market cap when coin launches. It seems that we are very big right now, and our ico is not done, can be bigger. Stay tuned, maybe 3k btc+6800 btc btcd in the end. |

I was never interested in ICOs myself but after investing in ICONOMI , It became fun and I decided to invest in more projects. I can see your ads almost everywhere but there is something weird I can't understand , I know this is meant to be an "Anonymous" coin but I don't see the need to hide the Team identity , If this is a legitimate coin everything should be public ? https://komodoplatform.com/#about I only see their aliases and no real names? I read some of the questions on the FAQ as well and I can't understand what is the relation between BTCD , NXT & Komodo Coin (KMD) ? also is there is any official wallet for this coin ? If yes , please link me. Another thing I would like to know is how much KMD will be created ? and is it possible to mine them ? I know those are a lot of questions but I just want to get some information's right before I invest. |

- Komodo is a BTCD 2.0, so the BTCD's are swapped for KMD after the ICO - NXT has no longer nothing to do with Komodo or SuperNET - Official ICO address is https://blockchain.info/address/35Rwwc9e2Mj7smFXJ1iXF826cMW3tqfz6x [but do not send investments directly there] - There will be 100M KMD (out of that we sell 90M in the ICO). In time we will have total of 200M KMD due to inflation. - Mining is done by Notary Nodes, and to become a notary node you will have to be elected.

I get it now ! thanks. but when I asked about the wallet I didn't mean where the funds are sent but I meant the coin for the wallet itself (like Bitcoin have Bitcoin Core/Electrum/Multibit HD etc... ) , another question ... Is this coin open source ? and is it decentralized ? and how would you compare yourself to other "anonymous" coins like Monero , Dash & Zcash. |

I get it now ! thanks. but when I asked about the wallet I didn't mean where the funds are sent but I meant the coin for the wallet itself (like Bitcoin have Bitcoin Core/Electrum/Multibit HD etc... ) , another question ... Is this coin open source ? and is it decentralized ? and how would you compare yourself to other "anonymous" coins like Monero , Dash & Zcash. There will be two GUIs for Komodo. The first GUI is Iguana, which is a SuperNET multiwallet that has been in development long before Komodo was announced. Through that GUI you can use Komodo in its transparent mode, i.e. send normal transactions. The other GUI is being worked on by Satinder Grewal, and it will also be able to send out the anonymous transactions, i.e. protected mode. The mainnet is scheduled to launch two weeks after the ICO has ended. Probably we won't have the anonymous transactions in a GUI format at that point, but we should have the Iguana GUI with transparent transactions. The Iguana GUI team led by Boogieman's team has been doing great progress. They make constant updates in SuperNET Slack channel #iguana. We have combined those updates into a gallery. Yes, it is all open source!
Iguana - https://github.com/jl777/SuperNETKomodo - https://github.com/jl777/komodoAre we decentralized? Yes, the whole SuperNET project is about decentralization: decentralized multicoin wallet, decentralized exchange, decentralized poker, decentralized pegged assets. Komodo is also decentralized, as we use the Zcash equihash mining as our initial consensus. However, in dPoW the data has to be notarized into the bitcoin blockchain by group transactions, which means only a limited set of nodes can do that. In dPoW we came up with 64 notary nodes that will give that Bitcoin security. Maybe someone could say that it is not as decentralized as having 1000 nodes, but it is quite decentralized nonetheless. Komodo is a Zcash PoW fork that adds the dPoW consensus on top of it. The system is not dependent on those notary nodes, as without them we would seamlessly continue with the normal PoW mining done by the normal nodes. See this picture.  That brings me to the competition aspect... As I already stated Komodo is a Zcash fork, which means we will have the exact same privacy technology. However, Komodo is much more than just a private payment system. In any case we don't see ourselves competing with Zcash. We are simply the first fork of the many Zcash forks we expect to see. Many different projects require privacy features, and those are provided by their open source technology. We have discussed the Zcash competition aspect before, see: - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1605144.msg16592269#msg16592269 - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1605144.msg16592178#msg16592178Then how does the Zcash tech do against the other anonymous coins? Basically it's a totally different way to achieve privacy. If you are interested you can read more from Zcash's websiteAlso some interesting links: - https://forum.z.cash/t/what-does-the-zcash-team-think-of-monero/1465 - https://steemit.com/blockchain/@juansgalt/zcash-futures-at-2-2-billion-market-cap-is-it-s-technology-that-good-report |

About the notary nodes, a candidate quotes jl777 as having said: A notary node will need to run all the assetchains and als DEX orderbook, also will be doing price feeds, RNG beacon and poker deck shuffling. Can anyone refer me to where this have been said, please? In case the quote indeed concerns Komodo notary nodes, I was wondering if a notary node will be doing all the mentioned above or will it have the choice to do some and not do some, can a notary node solely mine Komodo? |

Released a new version of assetchains. (github.com/jl777/assetchains)
Make sure to install parallel to komodo so you end up with:
<dir>/komodo/src
<dir>/assetchains/src
It was a bit tricky to get the bitcoin codebase to run multiple coins at once, but I managed to get it to autospawn a new coin based on just the name. Various things are configurable from the commandline, but only the ac_name parameter is actually needed:
./assetchaind -ac_name=USD
From that, it autogenerates a genesis deterministically so all nodes end up with the identical genesis, it also generates different network magics and ports. By convention the rpc port I made one more than the p2p port.
SuperNET/iguana/tests/assetchains spawns 32 fiat assetchains.

after args: +RON port.11150 magic.b5fcd485 timestamp.1475772963 supply.10
With 32 blockchains, it would be a lot of empty blocks, so I have it setup to only mine new blocks when there are transactions. You might notice that the supply for each chain is set to just 10, which is $10 USD for the USD assetchain. This is just to have some coins to test, but the idea is that KMD paxdeposit command is used to deposit coins into the fiat chain.
And so that is what I have working now. A KMD paxdeposit command is monitored by the fiat chain and when seen, it will create the corresponding amount of USD coins. But wait! you say, what is the corresponding amount of USD coins? The answer is in the paxprice command, which will show the KMD cost for each USD.
So a paxdeposit calculates the KMD required to match USD, this then is seen by the USD chain, which issues the USD. USD can then be transacted like bitcoin and even the DEX will work with it once I add the fiat chains into iguana.
Then the withdraw from the fiat chain will work with a paxwithdraw command that is already implemented in the assetchaind. There is still a bit more work needed to do on the komodod side (ie. monitor assetchains and process the withdraw, but it will keep on the blockchain) but for now I am finalizing assetchain changes
Also of note is that assetchaind already integrates dPoW with a relatively easy 5 step process as described in main.cpp:
// dPoW integration steps:
// 0. make sure komodo is installed parallel to this project so ../../komodo/src/komodo.h is right
// 1. include komodo.h with KOMODO_SOURCE being the string of coin symbol
// 2. add extra test to ContextualCheckBlockHeader()
// else if ( komodo_checkpoint(¬arized_height,nHeight,hash) < 0 )
// return state.DoS(100, error("%s: forked chain %d older than last notarized (height %d) vs %d", __func__,nHeight, notarized_height));
// 3. call komodo_connectblock(pindex,*(CBlock *)&block) at the end of ConnectBlock()
// 4. call komodo_disconnect(pindex,*(CBlock *)&block) at the start of DisconnectBlock()
// 5. Make sure notarized tx are being made by notaries running iguana notary dapp. replace the notaries.h and komodo_notary.h list if using your own notary nodes.
A lot of code is shared between komodo and assetchains as a lot of the dPoW process is very similar, just with different source/dest, and the processing of komodostate is also very similar.
Next I need to update the iguana notary dapp to do the dPoW for the assetchains to complete the third party chain support of dPoW. I figured it would be cool to have 32 meaningful fiat chains to have as the first dPoW chains. Also REVS can be spawned using the identical code. Currently I dont wait for N confirmations, just so we can test things faster, but of course it will be changed to wait for the transactions to be notarized. That way, we can transact fiat chains at BTC security level.
Before we can scale PAX usage up beyond testing amounts, I will need to add some portfolio balancing code, but all this can and will be done after iguana DEX is supporting the KMD and fiat chains, as that gets us quite a lot of nice functionality.
To do:
1. add third party chain support to iguana notary dapp
2. rebase to zcash mainchain release
3. verify election ratification
4. activate 5% APR
5. iguana DEX support of KMD (ZEC) and fiat chains
6. komodod paxwithdraw and portfolio balancing
Only 2, 3, and 4 are strictly required for komodo mainchain release, but I would like to get all 6 done to avoid any hardforks soon after mainchain release

hi, once ICO ends - can you please suggest when KMD would be distributed? When it would go live?
I read the whitepaper and website info but couldn't find this info. Thanks.

So this might be a little early, but any whispers of what exchanges may list this after ICO finishes?
i expect that it would be listed in some of the major Chinese exchanges ,it is a long road to predict that now as we have almost a month left for the devs to take the decision |
