Introduction

Komodo’s lead developer/founder James Lee “jl777” recently started working on an exciting new tech to scale atomicDEX orderbook called “dexp2p”. This will work as realtime decentralised p2p orderbook and millions of orders can be displayed without clogging down the p2p network. While this is a great solution for atomicDEX orderbook, it opens door for many new possibilities. One of them is live streaming of video or any other files.

This live streaming works pretty well as it was developed in the last few days. On my testing, I used one computer with one of TechLoverHD’s YouTube video in a loop with OBS Studio software to record as stream.

That enables the files to be downloaded as more parts are being uploaded at the same time and the file can be played with VLC or any other compatible player. [Read more…]
