Topic: What do you all think of Komodo? - page 2. (Read 3557 times)

Peter Sztorc published before I had those discussions with @jl777.

Yes, BTCD can be swapped for Komodo after the ICO has closed.

Aren't they collecting BTC and swapping coins from another crypto? I think I'll wait until launch to see the price is close to ICO.

And so this is a nice joke. He can be on the CMC if the ico are already finished and the distribution of comodo coin already does by the dev. but the ICO are in some last time for getting more funding(2410 BTC RAISED!!!!).

Some of the developers are not anonymous!

Btw, the Delayed Proof-of-Work feature I conceptually designed in collaboration with @jl777:


I was the one who suggested and explained how to use the Bitcoin proof-of-work to record checkpoints.

I can't remember with 100% certainty if it was James' idea and then I was the one to explain how to do it correctly, or if it was my idea entirely. But it seems like he was going to do proof-of-stake, then I think I tried to convince him to put checkpoints in the Bitcoin blockchain, and then the discussion proceeded into what dPoW (Delayed PoW) became.

I know originally he was going to go with Proof-of-stake and I talked him out of it.

So more or less, it is my idea and conceptual design (but his design on all the details), but I can't vouch for the details of what he did, because I haven't been following it. He worked out the  implementation details of what we discussed, as I was only involved in the conceptual discussion. I did this because I felt I owed him my help and we enjoyed discussing design concepts. I also benefited from this.

Btw, I have a highly trusted witness who can verify this claim if ever need be. But I don't think that is necessary.

That's funny how people are venerating Monero while it is not that appealing. Price would be higher if all your promises were true ...

How can they already be on CMC if the ICO is still ongoing? 

Well other than signature campaign about it nothing much per say. It does not even feature in top 100 currency market cap wise.

Certainly ask them do they see themselves in top 100 in coming time or will the value reaches near zero before reaching top 100?

Hes  definitely trolling  for sure. Why does he need  to compare  it to bitcoin  or  on  xmr? Komodo  is its  name  and   for sure there are  some feature that are not  present to those  two but  generalizng all cryptos  they are   just the same.  Komodo  would have  a good  potential though.

Why take my word for it when you can ask this guy.

You guys are arguing about James' technological accomplishments. He has a Github. Go there and see for yourself. Frankly, I have never looked at his code much.

Note marketing communication is also critically important:

Please providing link to a working and useful Supernet to download, the decentralized exchange. If you don't have one please shut your butthole, but if you do have one I can test it out and let you know.
I still stand, all his works are useless and not working at this point included bitcoindark. The simple logic, there is no point to create and promise another crap like Komoto beside scam and make himself more richer. End of my reply about this serial scammer.

The thing is. You have zero links to zero evidence. I have watched his projects for a few years now and asked hard questions. I am perfectly satisfied with his track record and working software. And if you weren't actually trolling and making shit up I'd provide you with some links.

Props.  That's exactly it, except I would delete the above statement about XMR. 

If it's not bitcoin, it's a shitcoin.  Pretty much.  There are about two other altcoins that I think are going to make it (who knows, Monero might be one), but Komodo?  Who the fuck knows?  I see it's being hyped with the signature campaigners, but shitcoins have turned out to be scams that way before.  Remember Candlecoin and some of those ultra-shitty ones?  Total BS coins. 

Don't know anything about Komodo, but I wouldn't touch it with your ten-foot pole.

Do you know this jl77777 guy is working on 20+ projects right now and none is useful or working? This one is no different. He have made millions from moron like you. Chance those 2,000BTC wall at Komoto ICO right now is just his free BTC throwing arounds.

I am not entirely closing the door on working with James on his project, but to be frank my passion is on my project to foster an entire crypto ecostem, not just anonymity.

Note I suspect James will probably end up talking about more than just anonymity for Komodo. I think (based on knowing him through many discussions) he will probably tie in what he was attempting to do with SuperNet at some point in the near future. And I know he was enamored with Steemit, so you can probably expect him to throw his hat in that arena as well. Nevertheless, I am nearly certain he can't compete with me on making a better Steemit. Who knows maybe we end up making two projects work together, but that is usually technically difficult (we've discussed such in the past).

I don't think James is a scammer in the sense that I don't think he thinks he is. I think he thinks he is very sincere about accumulating capital to do important work in crypto. He comes from finance apparently and thus apparently believes in raising a lot of funds. I think he shocked everyone when he raised 1500 BTC for the SuperNet back when BTC was closer to $1000 before ETH did their $18 million raise.

Yet I must agree that the anonymous developer aspect, the lack of a visual team doing promotional videos and a conferences (a la Ethereum) to nourish fanboys, doesn't seem congruent with raising $20 million and driving a $billion market cap.

If I ended up working with James on this project, it would mean putting my public reputation on the line and not even being a major party to the BTC raised. I think that would be unfair to myself, but then again money talks in some respect, so it is possible I could be lured with sufficient compensation.

But honestly, I rather go complete my project. And I can say I would not attempt to raise $20 million and I will be a public speaker on my project. And I do believe my project which will attempt to do what Steem attempted but do it correctly. @smooth and I both seem to think a social network market cap wouldn't necessarily be limited to $10 billion or even $100 billion. Even a $trillion is plausible. But getting there is about ecosystem network effects and Metcalf's Law. Review my latest comments in the "Steem is a pyramid scheme" thread. Nobody can say for sure what the outcome will be. I will just say if I get healthy enough, I am going to try to be the first to create a very serious altcoin ecosystem.

So I know which one I will be investing in. But if Komodo would commit to capping the raise at 5,000 or 10,000 BTC and does something about the anonymity of the developers and entire company, then I'd probably suggest buying some morsels of it. At 30,000 BTC, sorry no! I think someone should feedback to them.

My problem right now is I must go first to Singapore to get diagnosed and treated for a 4 year chronic health problem in my intestine which screws up my energy level for cognition, which has greatly retarded my productivity. I had been waiting for that shit to abate but it never did. As for today, I am fully funded for the Singapore medical trip. Also I attained a 30 hour work day yesterday without health problem yesterday (maybe due to the recent change I made in diet and adding deep squats barbell to my exercise regimen), but my history has been always to relapse so I don't count that as a cure. If it sounds weird that I can do squats yet am too sick to think clearly much of the time, that is just name of the intestinal illness. I really struggle for energy to even do the barbell workout but I am fighter, so I fight wearily. Any way, yesterday felt totally normal. My production yesterday is here:

I did make one video on Ethereum when I was feeling not so energetic, so you can sort of get a feel for myself as a public speaker but note I was suffering from my illness when I made this:

Amazing quote of myself in dealer_hedging @ 7min, "all insurance is a way of converting risk of gain, into a guaranteed loss!". Wow. Good job Shelby. You were smart before.

(Uggh my brain was so much more energetic in 2007! Oh it is sad to listen to myself before I got ill, huhuhu)

So you can sort of visualize the value of having a non-anonymous public speaker on a project. You can contrast my style and appearance to Vitalik:

Some little girls actually color better than little boys, did you know that?

Hmm, for someone who has the word writer in title of name, you sure are shit at it.

Most of your posts are a bunch of one liners no substance and zero research, which makes you look more like a basement kiddie. Hell you can't even get jl777's name right.

And fuck your service. No one wants to use services from trolls.
