So all the average poloniex trader need to do is to go to this thread, jump to page 45, follow the tech instructions (and if you are not a tech user, it's time to become one) and transfer your btcd to your local wallet.
And that assumes you, as a trader on polo have heard of komodo at all.

Here's another idea: Update the btcd 1.0 wallet to work after installation, so normal users can use it too. Maybe even have a working link on the website?

If you don't, expect some serious critisism after the snapshot from users who did not know or was not able to complete the steps above.
