Five Bullet Friday

Week 18: May 3, 2019
How Not To Piggyback On The Bitcoin Network & How To Do It The Right Way With Komodo's dPoW
 

This week, Andrew Munro from Finder interviewed Komodo's CTO Kadan Stadelmann and published an in-depth comparison between Komodo's delayed Proof of Work (dPoW) security mechanism and a similar protocol recently developed by a new blockchain project.

 

"Komodo itself isn't just securing Komodo with those 144 Bitcoin transactions per day," Stadelmann adds. "We're securing over 50 different blockchains, right, with our technology and this transaction scheme we're using. And on top of this, Komodo dPoW technology is 100% open source. But even the security layer has been heavily pen-tested publicly."


The conclusion is crystal clear— Komodo's dPoW is not only the first security mechanism of its kind, it's also the most secure and the most efficient.

"Decision makers for any PoW project already have enough on their mind. And by using Komodo's dPoW invention, they can cross 51% attacks off their list of crypto worries."
