[ANN][KMD][dPoW] Komodo - An Open, Composable Smart Chain Platform, Secured by B

[Karasugoi]

I have some questions. I guess this is the right place to ask and receive answers.

1. How much do I need for staking Komodo? Is there any minimum amount?
2. Does my PC and Agama wallet have to be open in order to get stake?
3. Is that simple as Neo? What should I do for claiming stake reward?
4. Is the problem with Ledger wallet solved? Can I get stake using Ledger wallet?
5. I installed Agama wallet. Which one should I choose? Lite mode or Native mode?
6. Any other special thing I should know?

I want to invest Komodo for long term and I need to know above. Thank you

1. 10 KMD
2. no
3. nothing other than spend funds to collect the accrued interest. there is a claim interest button in the GUI
4. there is a workaround, not the best but seems workable
5. lite mode is faster to get working
6. no

6. yes, it is not called staking.

Is this a good place to ask Barterdex questions?

I was trying to sell some CHIPS for KMD. There were buy orders present on  both sides of the market, mostly with 255 UTXO's. I clicked on various orders/amounts with low average volume and it filled the Min Price Sell and Max Amount Sell fields, but the amounts were different than the values shown on the BUY orders in the order book that I had originally clicked on to fill the fields.

So then I hit the SELL button, and a few moments later, my order appears on the sell side, but no transaction takes place. It seems odd that the buy orders keep going up in price, but nobody buys my lower-priced orders.

I have 15 KMD on deposit to allow for easy transactions.

Is there a reason my orders are not going through?

Thank you!

BarterDEX isn't like a traditional exchange where you just pick a random number and dump that much. In order for an exchange to take place, you have to have an amount of CoinA and want an an amount of CoinB, at the same time, the other party has to have that amount of CoinB (or close to it) *and* they have to want that amount of CoinA. If you try to sell 3 CHIPS at 0.1453 KMD to someone who's largest UTXO is 0.2 KMD, then the trade will not go through.

There's some "hit and miss" trial and error involved in getting used to it, but it all starts with letting go of expectations of everything you know from some other thing and learning this new thing.

so my KMD will be locked ?

right.
the KMD coins must be in your agama wallet.
and the coins are not locked. You can always send them back to an exchange

Ok that sounds good but I have a problem not seeing my balance that I had in there.
Ok why is it that now I have 0 balance when a few weeks ago I had my 6 Komodos?
Any idea why this would be?
I'm in the process of downloading the latest Agama desktop, maybe that's all it is.

So now after uninstalling the previous Agama AgamaApp-0.2.0.25c-beta-windows-installer.exe.
It showed the 6 coins a few weeks ago but now nothing.
The latest Agama wallet 2.0.26c says me previous wallet address key has incorrect WIF format.


Any help would be appreciated.
Thx!

[Norainvn]

my agama still have 1 connection,
my conf maxconnections=1
how can have more connection for sync

So many warnings in the claiming instructions...
How it is more risky to use the private key from Ledger Nano S in Agama, than using some other private key in Agama ??

"[Note: You can also use only with 1 Ledger Nano S for this purpose. But, you have to leave your funds exposed(!) for longer. Not recommended.]" ... Exposed to whom, where, how ??
I get the impression that there is some added danger there contrary to using only Agama without any hardwarewallet in the first place.

I'm reasoning that it must be a wrong impression because: Generating private key from the Nano S seed is done offline, logging in to Agama is done offline too (local signing) and resetting the Nano S is also done offline, so the seed/private key is not going anywhere from my PC. That means the only risk is stepping down from hardware-level security to software-level security only momentarily. If you don't have keyloggers, compromised wallet etc. it is not that big of a risk at all.
Is my reasoning reasonable ?

seems pretty reasonable.
Most people maybe are not as astute and have a blackbox "hardware wallet" which they trust is the most secure. By downshifting to where the seed is input into live systems it is less secure than leaving it in the hardware.

that being said by quickly transferring to a new hardware protected address, then it is indeed a short temporary degradation of security level.

another aspect is that by spending from that address, the pubkey will be published on the blockchain, so it loses its cold address security against Quantum Computers from the future

[Swinging Phallus]

The teams relentless work is endearing (the constant Github commits). I have an overwhelming feeling that this project will go far in the next few years. The practicality of dICO's will be in demand since regulations will be ramping up due to constant volatility and fraud accusations (take Bitconnect's class action lawsuit for example). With the first implementation of a successful dICO will come a waves of many more.

I am perfectly fine with the Monaize dICO delay, I appreciate the teams attentiveness towards detail. I would rather see the first successful dICO run flawlessly rather than filled with errors and disappointment. Holding this coin for the long-term.

Also when I now try to re-install on my Window 7 computer this exe it says it can't find the file...which is what I'm double clicking on to install it.... It worked initially np.

This is nothing. Have you tried using EtherDelta?

1. Were you running the initial installation of Agama in Native or Lite mode?
2. I would look in the komodo blockchain explorer and check your address, if it shows your balance correctly then the coins are still there. If there is no balance then the coins might be on another address (which could be the case if you ran Agama in Native and made transactions)
3. If you ran Native, did you backup/save your wallet.dat file somewhere else?

No I initially ran Agama in the Lite mode and it showed 0.
Then I downloaded the latest and tried in the Native mode, still shows 0.
No I didn't backup my wallet.dat, I read that it doesn't keep your wallet.dat where the install is so I shouldn't of have to back it up...

But now when I go back to install any of the Agama wallets it says it can't find the .exe file that I'm clicking on.
Not sure then how to install the Agama if my download says it can't even find the file I'm clicking on...

I would first verify you have your KMD in your address. Go here and enter your address and see what your balance is. If you're KMD are there, and you have your original passphrase you are in business.

As for the installation, I would delete your old installation files, redownload the latest and run it from a console to see what other clues you can get.
