They have the highest number of Github commits in during the last 12 months and they have a considerable lead on that too. (Soruce: https://cryptomiso.com) There has been a lot of thought and development gone to the technical side. Even their whitepaper (I've only partially read it) is very comprehensive and well written. Komodo UX isn't a problem. They have had some terrible marketing failures where they announced some of the biggest developments in the entire crypto-space few months ago and the presentation was so bad that the price crashed.
My UX worries were directed at Utrum; not KMD.
