https://github.com/KomodoPlatform/NotaryNodes/blob/master/proposals/libscott/README.mdWho am I?
Programmer of 11 years.
Proud to be working with Komodo since 2017.
Specialist in smart contracts, state machines, data structures etc.
What am I doing?
I am the author of two implementations of interledger crypto-conditions, in Haskell and C. I have also done the first integration of Crypto-Conditions into the bitcoin scripting language; for Komodo! This was done with the addition of a script opcode.
I am designing a protocol for cross chain contract settlements (ie to enable chips).
This protocol will open up a wide range of smart contract possibilities, with applications running on Komodo asset-chains. Additionally, the inclusion of Crypto-Conditions into the Komodo network will provide a high degree of connectivity via the rest of the crypto ecosystem, principally via Ripple's InterLedger protocol (ILP). ILP is a cross chain settlement layer for atomic swaps.
In case you are wondering, the key difference between atomic swaps and cross chain contract settlements is that contract settlements are not atomic, they are backed by on-chain code to verify contract states.
Interesting stuff going on behind the scenes. Are there any other candidates who are helping build out chips I should be aware of?
sg777 but you already know about him as he wrote the math paper
what we did in the atomic swap space, we will do in the decentralized betting space, but that is just one use case of the new tech we are making
