Komodo Announces the First Recipients of the Monthly Community Bounty Awards — Komodo
Komodo Announces the First Recipients of the Monthly Community Bounty Awards — Komodo A month ago, the Komodo team announced a new plan to acknowledge and reward key community contributions each month. The first month is now behind us, and it’s time to honor those who made significant contributions to the Komodo project! While many community members made big contributions, the Komodo team is unable to feature everyone who is contributing to the project. The community moderator bounties are awarded based on the team’s understanding and judgement of the most significant contributions. If you think we have overlooked someone, you can give us a hint anytime, now or in the future. The Komodo team was so pleased with the community’s activity during the past month that the decision was made to appropriately reward the bounty winners this month by adding 3,000 KMD to the baseline budget of 777 KMD. This brings the total community bounty budget to 3777 KMD for the month of October 2019.

First AtomicDEX Stress Test Successfully Completed — Komodo
First AtomicDEX Stress Test Successfully Completed — Komodo Komodo held a community stress test of AtomicDEX Beta on 31 October from 12pm to 6pm GMT. The test provided the Komodo Development Team with an enormous amount of valuable data about potential bottlenecks in the networking layer, and will help the Komodo team perfect AtomicDEX in the upcoming months. The main objective was to battle-test Market Maker 2 , Komodo’s next-generation order-matching technology, based on Libtorrent. It is a significant upgrade from the previous solution Komodo used in 2017 and 2018. Up to 2000 simultaneous traders tried to perform atomic swaps at the same time, while the infrastructure was scaled down to identify breaking points under high load. During the 6 hour test over 150 traders had completed an atomic swap. The Komodo team would like to thank all participants for their commitment and support during the first AtomicDEX stress-test.Order Matching Layer A crucial part of building a decentralized exchange is how to match buyers and sellers and broadcast orders. This layer is just as important as the atomic swap protocol itself and has to be just as decentralized. With the Libtorrent protocol, we have been able to create fully decentralized P2P order books where traders match with each other and begin an atomic swap .

Decentralized Exchanges: The Top 8 DEXs Compared
Nearly everyone in the blockchain space agrees that decentralized exchanges are the future of cryptocurrency trading. That’s because, in today’s industry, trading digital assets is neither secure nor simple. To start trading, you must first buy assets with a fiat currency (USD, EUR, GBP, AUD, etc.) through fiat gateway services, which often charge high fees and offer terrible exchange rates. Only a few major digital currencies are available. Once you’ve made the purchase, you no longer have control of your own funds- the exchange does. This system forces centralized exchanges to be responsible for holding and protecting all users’ funds. As a result, exchanges must manage a few centralized wallets that control huge amounts of wealth. The solution is decentralization. If all trades are fully peer-to-peer, as on a decentralized exchange, then intermediaries will no longer need to hold and manage users’ funds. It makes the industry far more secure. It also promotes adoption by greatly simplifying the trading process. While many projects are working on various DEX protocols, few of them have developed a DEX that meets all 4 core requirements of a truly decentralized exchange . This article will examine and compare the protocols of the top decentralized exchanges: 0x, IDEX, Waves, Loopring, Kyber Network, Decred, Nash Exchange, and AtomicDEX. After a thorough analysis, we will be in a position to evaluate the relativ...

Market Maker 2: The Engine That Powers The AtomicDEX Protocol
Komodo is the undisputed industry leader in atomic swap technology. With the beta release of AtomicDEX , Komodo continues to lead the blockchain space in decentralized trading solutions. AtomicDEX is the only product that lives up to the 4 core requirements of a truly decentralized exchange . This blog post will explain in great detail Market Maker 2, the underlying protocol that powers secure, peer-to-peer atomic swaps on AtomicDEX.Lessons Learned From Previous DEX Protocols Komodo’s atomic swap technology has evolved over the years. While Komodo has long led the industry in atomic swaps, BarterDEX, the previous generation of Komodo’s DEX technology, had a few major issues that prevented the application from being mass-adoption ready. First, traders were required to have a UTXO of the precise value they wished to swap on BarterDEX. If a user wanted to trade, say, 1000 KMD for BTC, then they would need a UTXO of exactly 1000 KMD to make the swap, even if they had more than 1000 KMD in their wallet. In this case, the user would need to manually split the UTXOs in her wallet in order to have one UTXO that was precisely the amount of the fee and a second UTXO that was precisely the amount of the trade. Second, one party of an atomic swap- the trader who initially posted the trade offer- was required to commit funds to a deposit address. The deposit had to be 112% of the total amount the trader wanted to swap. Although neit...

How To Make A Blockchain With Komodo’s Antara Composer
There are many different reasons why you may want to learn how to make a blockchain- you may be building a fintech application, creating a supply chain management solution, making tokenized digital assets, exploring blockchain gaming, or leveraging blockchain for secure records management. Whatever your target use case is, you’ll need to learn how to make a blockchain before developing the perfect solution. Broadly speaking, there are 4 ways to adopt blockchain technology: you can code a new blockchain protocol from scratch, fork an existing blockchain’s source code, submit code to a single-chain smart contract platform, or you can make a blockchain on a multi-chain platform. Of course, all of these methods come with their relative merits and drawbacks, but the last option stands out as the superior choice. Launching a sovereign, application-specific blockchain combines the independence of creating a new protocol or forking an existing chain’s source code with the security and programmability of building on a single-chain smart contract platform. Enter the Antara Composer, a web application that lets you customize and launch a Smart Chain in just minutes. It also lets you add all the extra features and white label products you need to go-to-market quickly.

The 4 Core Requirements of a True DEX — Komodo
The 4 Core Requirements of a True DEX — Komodo For years, increasing decentralization has been one of the main objectives of the blockchain industry. While this is a worthy, albeit rather abstract, goal, the word “decentralization” now seems more like a marketing buzzword than it does a design principle or guiding ideology. This is most evident when it comes to digital asset exchanges. Recognizing the challenges of centralization, like custodial trading and massive security vulnerabilities, many exchanges, both old and new, have taken to calling themselves decentralized exchanges (DEX) without ever explaining the properties of a true DEX or how they rise up to meet the standard. While many of these so-called DEXs are, indeed, less centralized than traditional custodial exchanges, they still bear the mark of centralization. Just because an exchange is slightly less centralized than a fully centralized exchange doesn’t mean we should call it a DEX. In this blog post, we will establish the core requirements that must be satisfied in order for an exchange to qualify as a DEX. Then we’ll explain how AtomicDEX, Komodo’s third-generation atomic swap powered DEX, is the only exchange in the industry that satisfies all conditions.Defining Decentralized The debate over the word “decentralized,” and what exactly it means, is not a new one. In this excellent essay by Tony Sheng from September 2018, a few different def...

Adaptive Proof of Work (APoW): Komodo’s Solution To Diff Strand Attacks
Blockchains do not have inherent security. While major blockchains like Bitcoin and Ethereum are incredibly secure, it’s common knowledge that smaller blockchains don’t have anywhere close to the same level of protection. If a blockchain’s network is small and weak, so are that blockchain’s defenses against malicious attacks. Proof of Stake blockchains face threats like the Nothing at Stake problem and Weak Subjectivity . Proof of Work blockchains, on the other hand, have to worry about the infamous 51% attack , as well as more obscure attacks like the Diff Strand Attack. A Diff Strand Attack is when malicious miners raise a small network’s hash rate and mining difficulty to extremely high levels very suddenly. Then, the malicious miners quickly abandon the network, leaving it stranded with such a high difficulty that the remaining miners are totally incapable of processing transactions or finding new blocks. To defend against 51% attacks, Komodo uses the delayed Proof of Work (dPoW) security mechanism, which recycles the Bitcoin network’s hash rate to give every dPoW-integrated coin the same level of security as Bitcoin itself. As for the threat of difficulty stranding attacks, Komodo now has a solution for this, too. Komodo’s Lead Developer James ‘jl777’ Lee recently added slight changes to traditional Proof of Work rules to allow a network to quickly and naturally recover from a Diff Strand Attack. Th...
