Investors bags are getting bigger and bigger.I'm intrigued about the price in the next wave

boom, can't wait to see what's brewin.

I'm certainly not a short term investor/speculator....but when I see that komodo talks about complex eco-system but fails to deliver a rather simple wallet functionality then I have my doubts...I then said they may be looking at a big picture and I can't judge them based on this. So I moved my coins to a wallet that works just fine. But then after five months and before the announcement I saw several other comments from different users who have trouble with the wallet (both agma and swing). Combining this with the presentation I had to speak up and become vigilant about this project. Even after they put up new website we can't still find a road-map about the project...that's crazy. It's crazy that the team can't list their progress into a simple chronological order....almost all the website that I've checked they have some kind of roadmap. Check Nimiq for example (ranking around 200) with one tenth of market cap.

I set group permissions on all the required files, that should work. of course to be sure you can put them all in the same user, whichever is easier. just speculation like I said, I havent done my swap still it's a slow day. there is a tool to do this, using the gui to set the group permissions is not by default included with ubuntu but can be installed: 'sudo apt-get install gnome-system-tools' .. in theory that should work fine just give the group designated to both users read/write permissions on required folders and set to recursive. this may just confound everything also could be simple will see in a moment

I hope everyone realizes that I am not part of the team.

Moving forward. Should I reinstall kmd  and lightcoin but do it with the barterdex user that is created in the barterdex build instructions? Currently kmd and litecoin are installed on the default user account and the barterdex is installed on the barterdex account.

I also think the instructions for barterdex DID work, but not sure how to exactly determine that.

yes, I am remembering now. I had some difficulties not realizing that marketmaker was using the config files to get the rpc infos the first time I installed these..  However, I think I am in disagree as to the only option being running from the same user. This would be the simple more obvious approach, everything in the same user account.  my system is already setup differently though so I made some adjustments to allow group permissions. that way the two users can both read/write to the files. anyways, not to overcomplexify what is already complex I still haven't done my first atomic swap but thats about to happen ..

The team of Komodo has visions to enhance the industry of cryptos and blockchains. It is a very complex paradigm if you ask me as I have been a programmer all my career.  I would estimate the ecosystem of the project to be completed even in 3 to 4 years. You have only wanted to invest in short term that is why you are pissed. Go to Dogecoin instead where regular P&D happened. If you are really savvy investor on exchanges go ahead maybe you can earn more but not with Komodo platform in short term. If and when sidechains are starting to pop up then that is really the time it will have a strong run but for now its accumulation period for us believers.

seems like this is the first post I have observed from your account with some actual content, so I will reply as it is directed at least in part, at myself. the word fanboy seems to be almost insulting, and since I wouldnt call myself that, I will disagree with your terminology. however, I do support the komodo project that is true. I traded all of my crypto for KMD when I learned about it.

if you would like an explain of my harsh criticism it is a result of reading many of your posts in more than one thread by the way. i was on zcoin thread before when my investment was in zcoin. of course it's likely you a right to complain over there, their wallet lost 50 of my coins.

still though, you always seem to chime in with a snide comment that really has no content. how is it helpful for you to achieve a wallet to liquidate your funds by the continuous stream of snide comments (with no other content?) this is what I am wondering. while zcoin did infuriate me with their lack of support for my issue, I did write one or two more posts and since, you haven't seen me over there talking sh*t. because it serves no function other than attempts to discredit their work.

my opinion about the work is that is will either credit to itself or discredit itself one way or the other. the snide comments don't help anything and just appear as fodder distracting the thread from any actual function other than irritable and self-entitled people to vent their frustrations.

since komodo is only about a year old since offered, they seem to be in a more advanced position with all of their tek than any of the others can think to compare. from my observation of the content output from the dev jl777, this character seems far from "simple" .. actually the work appears to be very complex. and since you don't appear to be a programmer yourself, your critique of the work has limited merit.

in the spirit of good vibes, I wish the best. but really, your comments don't help anything. the only cause you could be working towards with the continuous criticism is the attempted lowering of the market value. that's how it looks from here. and since I am holding plenty of komodo, I feel compelled to criticize the critic. unless of course the criticism has actual content that is in some way helpful to raise awareness or move the project forward. 

I have no agenda...I'm just a pissed investor...I was bought into the Komodo's philosophy and idea of creating anaymous tokens and DEX and that they're doing something unique, etc etc...I started using their wallet in May, it worked fine for few times but then it kept giving errors and not getting logged in, so we were told to change some files in komodo to fix the glitches but it didn't help....I was glad that they created an app for the Legder Nano S so I tried to move out my coins from Agma to physical wallet, however it didn't show that my coins were transferred and the balance displayed incorrectly....I kept doing it for few days until I was able to move them all out to my physical wallet and kept it there until very recently...

then few weeks back I saw that in KMD website it was advertised that they have a BIG "announcement" and they put a count down in the site starting from 5 days....that certainly caused to hype the price to about $3.65......then it comes to the day of announcement which everyone knows how terrible it went...people try to justify the presentation by saying that they're tech people and they have their priorities set and the marketing wasn't part of their top priorities (then why wallets not working 100%?). Some also say that by the announcement they just wanted to give an update to their investors and supporters. If that's the case what was it about ALL this big show and count-down? it was just very immature & deceiving.

What you mentioned above and that I don't check the link to find the typo in the URL link is similar to the way Komodo team practices its developments...they build a wallet from the ground up but there's a minor tweak in it. They know how "easily" it can be fixed but they release their product to the public anyways, expecting everyone to know how they should run & fix the wallet!

So after 5 months that the wallets not working smoothly and after the announcement I think I should be very critical about their project so to understand whether I should keep the rest of my positions in KMD.

OMG, sorry I fucked up the link. Copy paste on an iPad sux.

This is a lot of good news and progress..

When ALTS sentiment changes KMD will be well above the past ATH.

I really can't understand the agenda of ka82 . He or she has been critical with Komodo platform ever since . Full of doubts are his questioning and skepticism is written all over his/her statement . URLs are simple but instead of correcting it he/she resort to the thread as if everything is wrong in komodo. It is so obvious that the link above was a typo . So lazy that is . Just relied on link without even checking if the URL syntax is correct.

For whatever reason, when you click on it to copy it to the browser, the ":" in Https:// is missing. Insert the ":" and it will work. Fixed below:

I can't open the link!

I did not like the timer news style KMD used, but in other side i think KMD tried to deliver a message, the message was "we have people who believe in us" and it delivered successfully.
a lot of other coins can not get 100k$ volume even with the biggest news announce 

Landed here from the BitcoinDark thread. Anybody willing to save me from reading 600 pages and tell me what else I need to know besides the 1st and the last 2 pages? :-)
This looks so way ahead of some/many current/recent ICO's or am I mistaken there?

Retention is the new acquisition. Customer service is the new marketing policy which Komodo follows at best.

No, it does not have to be the same, it is even better when it is not the same, just to avoid some problems when you misconfigure something.

It works like this:
1. you set rpcuser and rpcpassword in the config file of the wallet and start the wallet (you can set it to whatever you wish, e.g. using random values)
2. you start marketmaker (by calling ./client in the iguana/dexscripts directory)
3. marketmaker reads a config file named "coins" in the same directory, where it gets the correct rpcport and the correct config-file-path (where you set rpcuser and password) for every coin
4. marketmaker connects to the rpcport of the respective coin using the rpcuser and password he previously read from the config-file of the coin

no. use decent passwords, just a good habit. you wont ever need to type it in and barterDEX extracts it but it protects from external websites that could be setup to issue remote rpc calls via spoofing

LM is a differentiator against central exchanges and a lot of the other DEXs. Ripple has a liquidity illusion as last I checked you didnt need to even fund any bid or ask.

You say that it is just one if statement... Well, not sure if you ever wrote any programs, but you would need to use a very high level language that could implement LM with one if statement. If it is so easy to do, then why dont any central exchanges have LM? It would be in their interest as they would be able to get more commissions. Yet, not a single one does it. Probably because it is a lot more work than one if statement.

Also, you are comparing the proxy token DEX with atomic swap DEX. That is like comparing something that moves things around inside of a single system against something that moves things between different systems. Not sure how I can explain it clearly... Since you dont trust my technical skills, why dont you ask other devs how easy it is to make an atomic DEX? Other DEX devs are acknowledging barterDEX https://z.cash/blog/atomic-trades.html but again that is probably not relevant to you.

Now if all exchanges implemented LM, then we are all better off and that is not a bad thing. I have been too busy working on my tech that I havent had a chance to investigate the other DEX at a detailed level. Could they all implement LM, probably given time, unless they designed their system around the concept of allocating account balances to trades so deeply that it would need to be rewritten. LM is easier to do for a DEX than for a central exchange. I will let you think about why that is, maybe you will start to appreciate my skills a bit more for having understood this.

Also with an if statement, XOR and data load/store it is possible to create a turing machine and that means any program. So to say that something is just an if statement... well most all software is just some if statements with a bit of math and loading and storing data. It is like saying that no book can be hard to write as it is just some words.
