Is EOS going to flop the like the rest of Dan's blockchains?

in eos •  7 years ago 

Bytemaster is clearly a skilled blockchain engineer, but he just doesn't seem to have the same boy whiz-kid charm that Vitalik does, hence the difference in market cap between BTS & Ethereum.

OK but seriously, the USP of EOS is that it is a more scalable version of Ethereum, capable of processing hundreds of thousands of transactions per second, whereas Ethereum currently maxes out at 20 tx/second. EOS also has zero user fees.

Serious questions:
-Is the market actually going to care about these scalability claims?
-By the time EOS goes live, will Ethereum have found a way to increase their transaction rate?
-Is the network effect for Ethereum's smart contracts already too far developed, that people are satisfied with that? Would Eric Voorhees ever switch Shapeshift's Prism to EOS?

Im really a big fan of Dan's work, I just want to ask these questions before deciding to buy in.

So which blockchains built by Dan flopped? Steem and Bitshares? On any given day either chain has more blockchain operations than BTC and ETH combined.

The market doesn't see that yet...give it time.
