It's great that you are starting this discussion. I've been thinking whether we can take some of the stuff Komodo is doing and use it on STEEM. I'm not a super technical person. But from what I can understand it is one of the best crypto projects out there. Instead of creating one giant high performance blockchain they provide resources to build blockchains and then provide dICO and interoperability features. KMD also provide BTC level security for any crypto through delayed PoW and their scaling through interoperability sounds better than sharding. It's a simple and clever idea.
If we can achieve something similar with SMT or completely new project, it would be groundbreaking.
I was reading their white paper today. Couldn't complete as its quite complex. As you said, they seem to be like a mashup for various chains and using code base forked from Zcash, then using Bitcoin chain to take "backups" of the Komodo Mainnet and store on Bitcoin Public chain etc.
They have atomic swaps as well - but couldn't read about it.
The only thing I am sure of is, they support private chains by a mechanism called "Asset Chains".
Not sure how much of all this implemented.
Their documentation is super awesome.
Agree - They also have a DEX and ICO feature like SMT.
Now I don't feel bad about not going through the whole thing. Komodo did many firsts when it comes to atomic swaps and they have been responsible for vast majority of atomic swaps ever done. They have also partnered with Amazon
:-)
Yea, they mentioned about the Amazon AWS partnership and are planning to do a TPS test.
