@KomodoPlatform: As you stated yesterday the deposit will taken place in tranches, first tranche starting 31st January. So e.g. for me, who made a deposit to my wallet address, it is not certain when exactly i will recieve my KMD. I hope, beside other cases of ICOs, you will be so fair and wait for lunching KMD on exchanges till every KMD is deposited.
It is highly recommended to request payout BEFORE Jan 31 distribution.
All the KMD will be distributed very close together for each batch, likely within the same hour.
I can guarantee that exchange trading wont start before the Jan 31 distribution, so request payout before then and you will have KMD before it starts trading on exchanges.
I cannot guarantee that exchange trading wont start before the second distribution, but it is not very likely that exchanges will start trading so soon. then again, we have no direct control over exchanges, so please ask the exchanges about their plans about their timing. You dont ask the exchanges when KMD will be doing its distribution as they dont have control over that, similarily we dont control when the exchanges start trading KMD.
I also cannot guarantee when exchange trading will start. All I can do is make sure that it cant start before the vast majority of people have received their KMD.
tl:dr Request payout before 31st distribution.
