I've a lot of trust in this coin. Great and experienced dev team, good coin and low price.
To the moon in a couple of weeks or months, that's for sure
Where can I find the roadmap of KMD?
There is no exact roadmap. I'll try to summarize it quickly, but of course it is constantly moving a bit. This roadmap includes also SuperNET roadmap, which is very relevant for Komodo too.
1) DEX layer with liquidity provider nodes
2) With working DEX we can continue testing the BTC anonymizing feature in Jumblr and finish it
---------- with these two in place the Agama will be pretty much fully functioning ----------
3) Komodo Currencies phase 2, which will allow us to scale their market capitalizations
4) Komodo Smart Contracts (this is the latest addition that we are now talking about, and planning)
5) Pangea poker backend (Pangea will party require Komodo Smart contract tech)
There's also a lot of GUI development to be done, manly for Agama, InstantDEX and Pangea
It's very hard to give any dates, and they would be very broad estimations. Thus we think it's better if we don't give any exact timeline, but our platform has been advancing with a very impressive speed lately! Really the most work was done in 2015/2016 when jl777 was coding Iguana Core.
In late 2016 we started with a Zcash fork and by now we have finished:
- delayed proof of work consensus
- we had elections and we got 62 notary nodes around the world giving protection
- launched 50 assetchains each with their independent blockchains, those are are using dPoW
- Satinder has made impressive progress with Agama (published just few months ago)
- developend and launched Komodo Currencies (phase 1)
- defeated a lot of blockchain attacks, which made Komodo a lot stronger
- launched/developed KV-coin (key/value database), which is required by DEX
- lot of enhancement to our backend performance, for example to Iguana Core
I might have missed something, not sure.
Hi Devs,
Any plans to hire some more programmers to speed up the progress and our developments?
Komodo have an impressive Roadmap, but with the slow progress and bugs we having now, someone is going to take our ideas and be the first to use it in their Bloackchain/Platform. Because this is an open project so others are free to use or copy our ideas.
I recommend to hire some more people, i mean we need a groups of Devs to handle each iOS, Linux & Windows GUI.
So we can speed up our GUI development & fixing the bugs, because curently we still have some people who having problems with Agama wallet on Windows version.
First of all, the GUI progress hasn't been slow considering the complexity of the application. The GUI has two coin daemons in it: komodod and Iguana Core. Getting Komodo GUI for windows and mac wasn't that easy either, as the Zcash team officially only supports Linux. All in all, there was a lot of things that had to be done and a lot of moving parts that add to the complexity. I'm not the right person to talk about it from a technical perspective though.
The GUI team has three persons in it: Satinder Grewal, ca333, and pbca26. The problem of hiring new GUI devs is the complexity part. A new guy cannot just jump in and start contributing. First, he has to educate himself about pretty much everything SuperNET has been developing. If the GUI dev doesn't have a blockchain background, then he also has to understand that aspect.
If the team were to hire another person, it would drain a lot of their resources to get him educated and up to speed so that he could make a contribution. The conclusion was that the fastest way to finish all the tasks is just to let them do their job. In fact, they have been doing a great job! (Agama is a native multi-coin wallet, there is nothing like it on the market elsewhere).
Satinder did say that after the GUI is working and the pieces are in right places, we can have another GUI team to take over. That team would turn the working product into a grandma-friendly product ready for mass market adoption.
That all being said, it has been acknowledged that the situation could change. It's not so much that we wouldn't like to hire more people, but who to hire? How do we find the guy?
For us to find a new GUI dev, the following has to happen.
Someone would have to join our community and be interested in our product so much that he takes his free time to study and understand the product, then offer his help. Then we could hire him, and the GUI projects would finish faster.
