@Dan has been telling everyone in the EOS community that all discussions about governance, arbitration, block producer procedures and everything in between should be done within on-chain forums allowing for a permanent record and archive over time.

The amazing thing is that this is NOT "news to us". Dan has been talking about this for almost a year now and the EOSTalk forums have been in place from the the beginning to fill this need from the start. Many members of our community have even told Dan we have the forums running in BETA on the STEEM chain to which he has replied that this is exactly what was needed.

EOSTalk.io Blockchain Almost Ready to Launch!

Our dev team is putting the final touches on the new EOSTalk Forums that will launch in a few weeks on its own blockchain, completing the evolution to provide a truly decentralized, censorship-free, on-chain platform for all things EOS related.

With that, it's now time to unleash the power of our amazing community to spread the word about our EOSTalk.io Forums.

This is where you come in...

What are EOSBits?

EOSBits were a token intended to be worth bandwidth in the EOS network and now all holders of EOSBits will be shared dropped on by the new EOSTalk platform token when it launches. Think of them like chucky cheese tokens for Dapps! And of course it is Verified they will be sharedrop targets in the future for EOSBit Sidechain BP Candidate! To listen to our discussions about how crosschain utility tokens were born, check out our BeyondBitcoin Podcast Series. Drop in and listen to them sometime!
