Important info about our roadmap!Where can I see the KOMODO roadmap? Invested 0.5btc
We try to cover some of that in our third article we publish this week.
~ 2 weeks after ICO you can make Zcash anonymous payments and we will have notary nodes notarizing Komodo blockchain to Bitcoin's blockchain, i.e. bitcoin protection. We will also be securing our fiat pegged assets with dPoW, which are now being tested in the testnet. The short term roadmap is to find all the bugs and deliver all the features we have talked about: EasyDEX, PAX1, Assetchains.
Another job is to encourage people to run custom notary nodes that are used to notarize the block hashes of 3rd party blockchains to Komodo. We want to get as many blockchains to use dPoW as possible. The best thing is, that all it requires is some code changes (can be done in 1 day), and a softfork. There is really no limit of how many blockchains could use Komodo to get bitcoin level protection.
All this will take time & effort... but if we are talking about the roadmap beyond these features, then I'll just quote jl777:
Beyond assetchains, there will be smart chains which are special purpose blockchains that implement a dapp. think of it like an ASIC that does one thing and only one thing, vs a CPU that is running and OS and doing many things at once. We expect this to be a very popular way to utilize blockchain tech and the isolation it provides combined with efficiency that is further secured by dPoW will hopefully make a good demand for KMD.
After smartchains jl777 is also looking to develop 'virtualchains', which are smartchains without any physical nodes.
What we are looking to do, is use DEX & dPoW to make blockchains scalable. A quote from jl777:
Using the iguana loosely coupled bitcoin compatible blockchains, effective tx/sec can be scaled up to very large levels just by creating many special purpose blockchains and connecting them together in a hierarchy. This type of capacity increase is for after the basic single chain, but the power of the atomic cross chain swap is more than for just doing DEX
Another quote from jl777:
one of the key smartchains I want to do is a hierarchical smartchain. that is where N smartchains all connect to each other in a hierarchy, with atomic swaps to connect to each other. each of these related smart chains will be denominated in the same coin, ie EUR... by being able to specify an arbitrary hierarchy topology, ANY level of scaling can be achieved as we know blockchains can handle ~100 tx per minute, so if 100x that capacity is needed, just make 100 smartchains and connect them together. No magic required. being single purpose, each smartchain only needs to store data related to itself.
We also have PAX2 and InstantDEX
- PAX2 will basically create a decentralized forex market, where you can short PAX currencies and receive interest by balancing the market.
- InstantDEX has the same backend as EasyDEX, but it is made for traders. It is a fully featured trading environment. No GUI team has been assigned to this task yet.
Whats up with the komodoplatform website?
It says im banned from the site.
Is that just me, or anyone else having the same issue?
Are you still having problems? No one else has reported any such problems to us.
ICO ends this weekend, any news on coin distribution and exchange where we can trade it.
We will distribute the coins ~2 weeks after the ICO.
We cannot promise if / when the exchanges list us, you will have to ask them! We have informed them about us.
