Introducing SmartFi

After nearly a year of planning and development, Komodo is excited to announce that SmartFi - an open lending platform - has chosen Komodo as its technology partner. Already completing $1 billion in transactions before launch, SmartFi is scaling up its crypto business by building a complete ecosystem. SmartFi will use various components of Komodo technology, including Komodo AtomicDEX API, Komodo Smart Chains, and delayed Proof of Work (dPoW).

SmartFi CEO Aaron Tilton

SmartFi has chosen Komodo as its technology partner because Komodo has a working DEX and true atomic swaps - real interoperable transactions that enable individuals to always have control of their own assets. Our shared ideology on free markets is the biggest reason why SmartFi chose Komodo over other blockchain projects. Komodo offers a flexible technology solution that can be adopted specifically for SmartFi's needs.

Komodo Business Director Jason Brown

There are three main ways in which SmartFi will benefit the Komodo ecosystem. First, this increases the project budget, making it easier to hire new developers and push Komodo technology further and faster. Second, various SmartFi token offerings will provide liquidity for AtomicDEX. Third, SmartFi validates the use of atomic swap technology in the real world by a company for its day-to-day business operations.

New KMD Use Cases

Komodo recently announced four new use cases for KMD. The first is to make KMD a multi-chain coin by expanding support to new blockchain ecosystems. The other three use cases tie into Komodo AtomicDEX API and the growing network of GUI applications built on it. Users will benefit from discounted fees, buybacks, and liquidity incentives.

KMD Use Cases

KMD Available on KuCoin

As of July 15, 2021, KMD is now supported on KuCoin. Supported trading pairs are KMD/USDT and KMD/BTC.

Komodo Core Technology Upgrades

Komodo Developer Decker implemented two major upgrades to Komodo Core in July. The first is an automated testnet environment for dPoW notarizations, making it easy for anyone to use the network without dedicated hardware or virtual machines. The second is an internal stratum implementation for Komodo Daemon, which enables miners to solo-mine KMD (or any other coins running on Komodo Smart Chains) by following just a few steps.

Upcoming AtomicDEX v0.5.0 Release

In August, Komodo will release AtomicDEX v0.5.0. Komodo CTO Kadan Stadelmann and the Komodo developer team have been working on optimizations. Soon users will be able to test simple trading view - which makes it easy to make an atomic swap with one click! With simple view, the suggested swap equivalent updates automatically in real-time based on market prices, so you don't have to worry about slippage.
