Today, everything EOS! We’ll be learning all about project and cryptocurrency EOS, one of the major Ethereum contenders and decentralized applications (DApps) platform. We’ll learn about the history of EOS, its issuance model and ICO, its governance, and its unique implementation of the delegated proof-of-stake consensus model. We’ll also take a look at the concerns surrounding EOS, from the “Tragedy of the Commons” to the “Nothing at Stake Problem”. These perspectives will allow us to look at EOS objectively, and furthermore better understand the varieties of consensus mechanisms (e.g. Bitcoin’s proof-of-work vs. Ethereum’s imminent hybrid PoW and PoS model, etc) and their implications on a blockchain network, its scalability, and security.
