Again with this bluemeanie bullshit?

As I said before:
...A random jagoff who, not coincidentally, cryptographically signed a post on this very forum bragging about how great what he later bashed in the blog was. When he was making money it was "the shit" and when he wasn't it was "all shit".  Undecided

I know jl777b is your God....

Just read this http://blog.bluemeanie.net/2014/10/nxtautodac-jl777-stolen-nxt.html
2014? and where are they now? new code new projects huge dividends. not being sarcastic but where is blue meanie has he started a successful project or ? just curious. I am not completely on board with JL for sure but a lot has happened since 2014 and there has been a lot of milestones reached on NXT since JL moved on and JL has a lot of projects since.

All of the KMD specific improvements are outside the zksnark tech, we rely on zcash's cutting edge zksnark tech improvements for the privacy tech of KMD.

I like one quote: "Never argue with fools, they will lower you to their level and win in their territory" ... everyone decides himself to whom apply it here.

Komodo - is one of the safest and dynamically developing projects currently. Arguments not needed, everyone who has ever used BarterDEX, kept KMD and assetchains, created his own blockchain on KomodoPlatform can confirm this.

It's an excellent scam team Smiley Smiley Smiley
Just as they left a project BitcoinDark (BTCD)
Will leave this project also .... Every investor to study the matter well
It's an unsafe project
The staff list contains fake names and fake photos
Make sure it's up to you
I challenge anyone here who can prove to us the fact of having a crew in fact.


Bitcoindark was swapped for Komodo and people had over a year to do so.  Komodo is Bitcoindark's evolution.

Many of the team members , myself included are public.   Some are not, and that is ok with us.

Go Troll elsewhere

Hello everybody.

thought i mention my own proposal for the notary nodes election: https://github.com/KomodoPlatform/NotaryNodes/tree/master/proposals/cipi

I'm part of the KMD team and my name in slack is @cipi (it was already in use here on bitcointalk). I am with KMD from the very beginning (since the swap from BTCD), currently running 2 marketmaker nodes for BarterDEX and 6 electrum servers on AWS. If i am elected i will reinvest part of the income into upgrading this electrum servers. I plan to upgrade to larger instances (mainly because of the memory) and also to set up more of them. Since I've configured them so that you get connected to the one with the least latency, this will help make it a bit faster for the user. For the ones that want to know the details, this is the list of the electrum servers that are up and running: https://github.com/KomodoPlatform/BarterDEX/blob/dev/gui/js/electrum_list.js. The ones for BTC, GRS, HODLC, QTUM, OOT and SNG are not "mine", all others are.

Some additional words about me: I am a UNIX sysadmin with more than 20 years of experience and i worked for 3 employers:
- a server hoster (the usual data center operations)
- a company providing software and hardware for air traffic control. There i cared for the servers of some national ATCs (eg. DFS) and also some airports (eg. Singapur and Abu Dhabi)
- the last job i had was taking care of the servers of a german public TV station

I recently quit my last job in order to concentrate 100% on Komodo, BarterDEX and the Notary nodes. You could say that I am a bit dependent on having at least one node so I do not have to starve :-)

Komodo 2.0 in Simple Words
by jl777
25 March 2018

The security alone is enough to justify it as assetchains need to be secured, but now that it exists it turns out to enable smartchain combos where multiple smartchains can all be combined into a combined set of chains that are all able to validate consensus in the other chains, relying on the notarized MoM (Merkle root of Merkle) data.

KMD is the repository for all the MoM notarizations. So on the KMD chain (secured by BTC notarization) is a record of MoM that spans all the notarizing chains block's merkle roots.

Each block has a merkle root that allows for any txid in that block to be verified, given the merkle root and an SPV proof. So, if you have the raw txbytes, you can validate the txid and if you have the SPV proof, you can validate that the txid is in that block. This is standard SPV validation.

Take it one step further.

Now we have notarizations happening every so often. In each a MoM is added, which is the merkle root of merkle roots for all blocks from that notarization height backwards to the previous notarization. Just as you can verify that a txid was in a block, we can therefore verify that a block with a specific merkle root was notarized! So combine it with being able to validate any transaction happened in a specific merkle root and we get that we can validate that a specific transaction happened on a specific chain. And, it can be any chain that is notarized, and all this info is in the KMD chain.

Once you can comprehend the above, you will realize that this totally solves the scalability issue of smart contracts.

Without using some untested massively complex and hard to understand new tech. It builds on proven SPV validation. SBV I guess, simple block validation. Validate a tx happened in a block and validate that that specific block was notarized in a specific blockchain.

The other shoe that is needed to understand is that each smartchain can have one or more special evaluation functions that can be literally anything you can write code to validate. Can be about mutating kittens, or whether a certain address did a certain transaction, whatever can be coded into a true/false evaluation funtion. The CC (Crypto Contracts) script can be based on that.

So, we get BTC secured cross chain CC scripts with arbitrary chain specific evaluation functions. No sharding needed as all data for each smartchain only exists on that chain. So, while all the other platforms struggle to implement these crazy complicated whitepaper solutions, we are debugging the simple scaling solution.

The paper for it will be written after it is completed, but it wont be very long as it is building on notarization security, CC and SPV validation which already has a lot of history.

Well, already during implementation we went down one road. Found an insoluble flaw and had to backtrack.

This is why I like to be a simple C programmer. No need to figure out really complicated whitepapers, just the simplest solution that does the job.

I would like to share today a report I made analyzing the usage of the KMD chain.

https://dexstats.info/docs/Komodo_Transactions.pdf


Usage is the most important factor of giving a network a specific value. KMD is currently at a trx count of ZEC (Zcash) and XMR (Monero).

With the increased usage of Barterdex the trx count will increase also by adding more notarized chains to the KMD ecosystem we will see more transactions which ultimately will increase the value of the Komodo Network.

Notary nodes providers are in arms defending dPoW from a wannabee benefactor of the technology. Let him spread false hood that eventually nobody would ever believe his/her statements. Komodo is an open source software that anybody could replicate it but  without in-depth knowledge of this super complex dPoW architecture. The said copier will find it hard to implement.

Bizarre. Where have I said anything negative about dPoW that would require anyone to defend dPoW? It's fantastic tech.

We accept the challenge. You can laugh if we fail.

gfigg42, anyway - currently i see only words, like "we planned dPOW in future", "we will do ... ", "we will send people to Mars" ... in future ... may be ... But on Git - i see only copy&pasted code and bunch of "fixes", hasty attempts to correct mistakes of SAFE devs misunderstandings basics.

And all blames and insults here - don't look good and reduce your credibility among community, at least because these insults against creators of 99.999999999% of SAFE sources. It's better to don't waste time here on "bad words" and focus on your project.

We were focused on our project until their little stunt blew up in both our faces. Since then we have been "focused" enough to accomplish a fork that KMD did not think we could manage. We've restarted our chain, and removed the notary node vulnerability. For now we function as a pure POW coin like 99.99% of the coins out there. Implementation of further features is common in forks and we fully intend to embrace dPoW but in our way. KMD wants new code? They just got some and they're going to see more. Is that enough "focus" for you?

Perhaps KMD could use some of this "focus" on their own coin instead of shitting on a tiny fork coin because they thought we weren't sufficiently bending the knee to our masters? How about some "focus" on what's important to their coin, not their overblown egos. We respect the KMD code or we wouldn't have undertaken this project. We believe it's the best there is or we wouldn't be here dealing with this bullshit.

There may be other vulnerabilities in our fork. We are not gods. Perhaps KMD would be kind enough to point them out to us instead of conspiring for new ways to exploit them?

Edit your thread then to reflect that you are, in fact, not using dPOW and NOT secured by Bitcoin. It's misleading otherwise.
