Komodo – Empowering Cryptocurrency Investors

Christened after the largest lizard on earth, the Komodo network focuses on empowering users with freedom through blockchain technology as per the whitepaper and features its coin, KMD.

On freedom, the project particularly zones in on enabling the blockchain entrepreneur and the average cryptocurrency investor, with its foundation pillar being security. The project claims to provide a unique and innovative form of security as strong as the Bitcoin network at a meager cost.

Komodo further enables users to trade over 95% of the cryptocurrencies in existence with each other (P2P), more like a decentralized exchange, by relying on the underlying concept of “atomic swap.” Komodo also allows developers to build DApps on the network or launch their apps as long as they conform to Komodo’s security requirements.

Number of Contributors
