before hopping on and contributing what I can to the community I was unfamiliar with command line as well,   but after messing with it a bit  I am getting the hang of it.   Still by no means an expert  but the only way to learn a new skill is to get hands on with it.

I think it would make sense to make clear distinctions between:

a) no tech at all
b) core tech without GUI
c) core tech with GUI on github but no installer
d) core tech with GUI and easy to use installer

It is clear to me that each of the four categories have different levels of completeness and thus different levels of value.

Any objection from core devs would be lumping a), b) and c) all into a)

Komodo has already been launched in September? Just not yet distributed?

Testnet  which is 99.999999% likely to become mainnet started then.   So yes, you could say it was launched in September and not distributed yet.

komodo-cli  has been out for awhile   but people for some strange reason dont consider things done unless there is a pretty gui.

GUI may be unimportant to those that have command line/coding skills ....but if you want to get mainstream use and acceptance it's a must. Until crypto becomes newbie friendly you limit the number of  potential user's.

I personally am getting tied of the attitude that if you want a GUI there is something wrong with you or you lack the skill set to be involved in crypto. This attitude seems to be saying " We are releasing the greatest

advance in the history of crypto, but most of you are to stupid to use it"

Cheers Jon  Wink

The whole cryptoworld was built by cryptographers and programmers, so if you're lamer and can't use command line (like me lol) just deal with it. You should be happy that you have an opportunity to be a part of new era even without any skills.

On the other hand:  I'm sure the programmers working on this project are getting tired of hearing their countless working hours developing new technology   mean nothing unless there is a GUI.

We are down to the last bugs...

The latest one found by karasugoi was an iguana compatibility error, where an iguana created tx didnt accrue interest. He also found what I think might be one of the last remaining PAX issues, which was doing multiple paxwithdraws in the same block.

This weekend I aim to get a successful DEX swap between two coins using only the basilisk mode, which means two nodes can DEX trade with each other, without even having either blockchain local.

Currently there are three modes for a coin: normal coind, iguana full node, basilisk node that uses notary nodes remotely.

This means there are 9 combinations of DEX trades. I have already gotten several of these combinations tested, but the most demanding is the basilisk <-> basilisk DEX trade, especially due to the potential of being spoofed. I just added spoof prevention and now the basilisk mode is responding virtually instantly.

you can see for yourself using any of the dex* tests scripts in SuperNET/iguana/tests from the github.com/jl777/SuperNET repo.

what this means is that for the following coins, you can DEX against any of the others without having any blockchain locally:

["KMD", "BTC", "USD", "EUR", "JPY", "GBP", "AUD", "CAD", "CHF", "NZD", "CNY", "RUB", "MXN", "BRL", "INR", "HKD", "TRY", "ZAR", "PLN", "NOK", "SEK", "DKK", "CZK", "HUF", "ILS", "KRW", "MYR", "PHP", "RON", "SGD", "THB", "BGN", "IDR", "HRK", "REVS", "SUPERNET", "DEX", "PANGEA", "JUMBLR", "BET", "CRYPTO", "HODL", "SHARK", "BOTS", "MGW"]

 LP nodes can be configured with a standard bid/ask spread for any trading pair, or it can also be configured to automatically quote prices based on the current central exchange price plus profit margin. Just like komodo doesnt try to replace bitcoin, but uses bitcoin's security, iguana native coin DEX doesnt try to replace central exchanges, but rather uses their liquidity.

add to the list above, all the coind coins that iguana supports and also add all the coins iguana directly supports. I think pretty much immediately, komodo/iguana native DEX will have one of the widest selection of coins

do you think we should ask bittrex also

Hope we can add to bittrex too...i like bittrex  Smiley


Does one need to give you all your personal information to register on Bittrex? 

I just use Poloniex and they probably have higher volume, but the more the better.

Anyone can request a coin be added to Poloniex:

Request that KMD be added to Poloniex here:   https://poloniex.com/coinRequest


What do I put here : "If the coin has a block explorer, please link it here."?

In a galaxy a long time ago (September)
komodo testnet was launched
dPow was added, testnet was able to survive
round robin mining was added, testnet exploded, but we were able to repair the damage.
PAX was added, after a furious battle against would be hardfork issues, testnet was able to survive with consensus intact
DEX functionality was then added, without any issues as it is really in a layer above the blockchain itself

Basically I have been able to evolve komodo during these months, adding all the features and avoiding any fatal hardfork that required a blockchain reset. A lot of blockchain resyncs by all the notary operators, but we have over 150,000 blocks in the KMD chain.

So the testnet becomes the mainnet with 99.99% probability at this point.

I believe this makes KMD the longest running zcash protocol coin. And the coins have been issued already but we dont know where to distribute them yet. There are also 44 assetchains that are also running. But since the GUI is only on github and not officially released, it seems that these facts are given little weight.

I would expect that the price of KMD will be at par with BTCD within the first 6 months. It only makes sense that Komodo be worth just as much or more than BTCD

With new tech and development fund of Komodo I'd be waiting to see it within at least top 20 coins pretty soon. I'd personally prefer much shorter swapping period, like a couple of months. Because BTCD could drag KMD down for quite a while within this year. But anyway it shouldn't be that bad if devs manage to push Komodo with good PR.

U have a very limited understanding of what u are talking about. I must confess to u that I see bright horizons and overwhelming perspectives for komodo, particularly the fact that it will be pummeled by fists of despair and great bitterness which constitute the sounds of ur living, additionally feelings of loneliness will cause u to confess to holy farther of rutherian eparchy of miami that ure guilty of murder and full of barbaric sins.

You're the second crazy person I met on the forum within a week. And both of you in this thread. Hmmm.

Oh man, gaze into the mirror and tell me whose face ur see. The person u see is not u. Ur trousers clearly dont fit because of an excessive fat on the inner thighs, u should acquire a decent apparel before u can talk to me or call into doubt the legitimacy of my words. I dont think that u're matured enough to hold a conversation with me.

I like your style

@all: Please, just ignore the user sulfurtank and stop to quote him!

This thread was until now characterized by calm behaviour and communication! Lets keep it in that way - thank you!


Yes I already put him on Ignore a few days ago and was a good decision.  Trolls are a waste of our time and energy.

GUI Wallet Progress Update!

Quote from: grewalsatinder
- Updated EasyDEX-GUI Login screen. It checks if there’s already a coin running or not, and shows login fields accordingly. User will have to have a coin running to see login fields or to create a new wallet.
- Add coin dialog also updated with little info about different modes it allows to add.
- Next I’ll add to select *Native Mode* for Komodo, Assetchains, PAX Fiat chains and Geckochains under Add coin dialog.

@ca333 is still working on Igauna Desktop bug that’s only specific to Windows and OS X machines. As per last conversations he’s very close to kill that bug. Hope to get some update on working Iguana Desktop app for OS X and Windows soon.

There’s another little task which I was trying to do to make Native mode work. Komodo needs to have Zcash Parameter files downloaded prior to starting komodo daemon. I wanted to show this process showing in front end but so far it wasn’t doing everything I was aiming for, and it was causing delay in finishing up the Native mode GUI related changes. So, I moved on to the GUI changes and asked @ca333 ‘s help on this part.

In any case if this part is not done in Iguana Desktop and GUI, it’ll still be possible for users to just download the files with single command… hopefully. But, we’ll try our best to make it a seamless experience and have it coded in Desktop itself.

To my the Native mode GUI is more important task to get enabled than this little in between task, so I just moved on to what I could make work.

Will update soon once I have the GUI coded to add Native mode Komodo using _Shepherd API_ which is already allowing it to do through API calls.
