Serious question: NIX is basically providing what the Komodo platform has already had for almost a year except NIX is missing the security of the bitcoin hash rate that KMD enjoys?

My question to the community. Why would I invest in NIX if larger communities that engineered and pioneered this technology already exist and are constantly adding new value to their communities currency and platform? Competition is definitely a great benefit to the overall ecosystem but at some point the extreme diversity becomes a money grab with ever increasing diluted efforts.

I ask "Why NIX. Why is it valued now"?

Keep in mind we can achieve private atomic swaps today without counter-party risk using HyperDEX on the komodo platform:

https://komodoplatform.com/latest-news/

I too am invested in Komodo and like what they are doing and hodl both projects. I don't know why it needs to be one or the other. I think both projects could actually partner and help each other. Plus in the future this market will be huge. As far as NIX, I love this team. I think they just get it, and understand how ease of use is so very important, judging by sneak peaks at the new wallet. I also like how I can hit one button in my wallet and ghost my NIX wiping it clean, thus making it untraceable. Tech is a bit different, refer to white paper. And I sure love ghost nodes. I think they can be worth a fortune. Watch what happens to NIX once the switch to POS happens and block rewards are cut 80%. It will be very hard to get a ghost node very soon due to the new economics, so I am making sure I have the NIX I want now.

besides healthy competition will always do a favor to it`s participants in the long run.
Also, time may come when NIX will be equipped with better features and characteristics..
Possibilities are endless.
