Daniel Larimer, CTO of block.one, goes more in depth to explain the new BFT-DPoS solution for EOS; he even compares the EOS implementation of BFT with another well-known implementation.
YouTube:
Part 2 shows Dan describing how DPoS/BFT in EOS will achieve 99.9% block finality in 0.5 seconds, with absolute finality every 2 seconds or better. This will allow dapps to provide a seamless user experience, a key step in bringing blockchain adoption to a wider audience.
Dan has another instructional video and an interview with EOS Go coming in the next few weeks.

Honestly that explanation about TaPOS at the 8 minute mark is the most concise way I've ever seen Transactions as Proof-Of-Stake explained!
Just TaPOS alone is immensely powerful and so damn elegant in its simplicity!

Thanks for this talk.
I have a follow-up question on transactions as proof of stake - what happens when you are on a fork and sign the transaction? Will it be invalid and not be applied? This may result in a loss of all the transactions that happen to be signed on forks.
And then, what is the expected fork rate on EOS? This would affect the amount of transactions that will be made invalid resulting in a worse user experience.

What i don't understand as neccesary is the 21 block producers. Why can't this be 210 block producers? I understand that much of it is about ensuring absolute best latency, to create the fastest blockchain, is there any other reason?
The problems here are two things: Centralization in wealth of the system as well as Centralization of nodes (I know this aspect is greatly debated, having to do with mining pools and all that).
To me this is the biggest issue with EOS, Steem and Bitshares. As a regulated system maybe it's fine, it will bend to regulation much more easily than other blockchain systems. There is plenty of room for success with this model, but I do think it is giving up on some of the most disruptive aspects of blockchain.
EDIT:
This is an honest question, i'd love some discussion around this if anyone has some insight.

Humans can only be reasonably expected to process the decision to vote for 21 different choices. I believe this is back by some scientific research. Not sure the source.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
well definitely don't buy that. You don't need to vote for 21 of the nodes, votes are ultimately set by network stake anyway. So votes don't count 1:1 per person, and witnesses are elected by total vested voting weight.
Especially as EOS plans to be a much bigger network than steem, for all types of applications to be built on top of, it seems like this number of witnesses is an unnecessary restriction on the network.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Well I will try to explain at least what I think.
As you saw in the video you need 2/3 of producers in order to produce a irreversible block. In percentage terms 14/21 is the same as 140/210, but in the later you need to produce 140 blocks to reach this irreversible block with would be 10x slower. Also token holders would need to choose from a pool of 210 or so producers witch would take longer and harder to decide. So conclusion 21 looks like a good balance between decentralization, speed and consensus. My 2 cents.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Yeah, that is fair that it has a particular balance to it. Just don't think it is a good solution once the network gets gigantic. Maybe the backup witness model does account for that well enough.
Although, seems like EOS has gotten rid of paying the reserve witnesses? Not sure what would incentivise people to run a backup witness then.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Runner ups still get paid according to number of votes cast for them - so incentivizes continued campaigning. Should be profitable to run a reserve node.

You only need 21 BP to be decentralized. More is just a waste of ressources according to Dans calculations. If we would want 42, we would need to put the inflation to 10%. Dan designed everything for optimum performance and the lowest inflation possible
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
No way would they need to increase the inflation rate, that is what I'm saying, nodes are going to be way way over payed.
Lets take the $10 billion marketcap we have right now. 5% of $10 billion = 500 million. 500 million divided by 21 = $23 million per year to run a node. That is at todays rate, with (our price with an unreleased product). People think EOS is gonna go way up in price (peraonally peraonally I think it's overvalued right now), so if EOS reaches >$100 nodes will be making over $100 million a year... Not really a good way to distribute wealth in a system in my opinion this is a big problem. If there were 42 nodes instead of 21 they would be making $50million a year to run a node. Still way too much.
This might make sense when there are multiple platforms being used by millions and millions of people. Until then this kind of price is ridiculous
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Hi Solar, there are a couple of points I could maybe clarify here for you (I am from EOS UK Block Producer Candidate so we have asked a lot of similar questions).
The first point is that the 5% inflation is often incorrectly assumed to go to the 21 BP's but it does not all go to the 21 BPs.
It is split 3 ways.
It is split between the Worker Proposal Fund, the 21 BPs and the 100 Standby BPs.
Each Standy BP has to be able to take over at a moments notice and run a full read only node and to do this requires running a minimum of 10 dedicated machines, 4 full time staff, 2 x 15GB diversely routed connectivity, etc etc. The cost for running even the 121st standby Block Producer is well over 1M USD per annum.
This does not include any provision for the addition of the IPFS storage either which is still to be announced, and the network is going to have to scale massively once it goes live if it grows at an incredible rate as we all hope it will, once it is up and running.
Plus the security protection the nodes will require is going to be massive, as we expect that every hacker looking to make a name for themselves will be all over it looking for attack surfaces, especially during launch and the early days of the network, so you cannot under estimate costs for this equipment and skilled personal.
So in short it is going to be expensive to begin with, and more expensive as soon as it launches and then even more expensive as adoption grows! The good news though is that all BP candidates who are serious about doing a good job for the network (which we all are, because we're all EOS hodlers too!) are being transparent about their ownership and transparent about their plans and costs.
We intend to fully reinvest all Block Rewards into creating the most robust node humanly possible, for a long, long time, before we start diverting any profits into our community project (EOS University) and I am pretty sure all other BPs are of the same mind. We're finding the BP community, and the EOS community as a whole to be an amazing cross section of the global population who are all genuinely interested in doing the right thing for the good of the network and the good of humanity.
It's almost bizarre, but I think it comes with the territory, if you get as far as learning about EOS you have got there as a result of specific personal journeys that have peaked your interest in it enough to continue learning, and then you just like it more and more, the more you learn.
Anyway, I'm getting carried away now, I was only going to offer a couple of points but there we go! If I can help answer any other questions then please reach out to me.
We are very interested to know what questions the EOS hodler community want answered, because not only do we have to first launch the network on 3rd June 2018 to enable voting, we then have to get voted for!
So we think the best way to achieve this is to try and understand what the community wants to know the most, and then try to answer those questions as comprehensively and transparently as possible. So please, drown me in questions, everybody! :-)

Thanks for the reply, even on an old post. Glad to hear that the budget will be more nuanced than that. It's an exciting system, Even though it's strength is it's datacenter nodes, I still think this is it's weakest point as well.
What type of knowledge does it take to setup a node? Advanced server and networking it seems? And CS skills in the language EOS is written in to configure your node?

This is definitely game changing stuff happening here. The existing DPoS of Bitshares & Steem are likely fast enough for many applications, but high volume, industrial grade solutions definitely need this level of throughput and confirmation.

eos related. I watched the live broadcast ... What a strange sound ... Charlie Chaplin, I heard something from Hitlunge video ... I should have guessed from there ...
There is no story about partnership with an important company ... it is a strange video .. I did not understand much anyway.
Frankly, this time I wanted the coins to be good.
So I looked at the market of coins positively ... It would have been convinced that ahakoin is really a 4th industry and the potential for development is enormous.
But this time I saw the Ios Coin Commit. Is it really new technology? I heard a strong feeling

Dan the man! Loving all that's coming out of that noggin' of yours. Seems the more I dive into blockhain tech, the more you keep popping up! :P
I'm currently a mobile developer and VERY interested in dapps, and go figure my two new fascinations are EOS and Steem. As platforms they are sheer genius.
Actively in the process of immersing myself in blockchain tech (and still have lots to learn) but in regards to the consensus network, I dig the interconnected geometry in order to efficiently correlate the elected nodes. I can see how that coupled with the dynamism of block production vs. broadcast frequency could greatly improve the overall confirmation latency of the network. With everything else under the hood, this enables a whole new realm of near realtime dapp experiences. Hell yea, very excited!
Keep up the great work. And that is also directed to anyone else reading who may be trailblazing these new frontiers, crafting awesome user experiences, and moving the needle towards a more unified world where we all can prosper!
Call me a fan boy but there are far reaching implications in all this 'blockchain/crypto' stuff. Not just from the technological perspective, but from the overarching model of how it works. It enables (and ultimately requires) a strong community for it to even exist. One where prosperity for all involved can occur from its utilization. Granted there are "bad apples" and people will take advantage of others where they can (in the short term at least) but that ultimately cannot be sustained in a system which seeks a symbiotic and balanced relationship.

Thanks so much for the technical overview! A few things stood out to me that need more clarification or context. This will probably sound negative but I'm trying to engage these points honestly and openly and invite discussion or rebuttal or more detail or whatever that defuses the concerns (if they're even concerns rather than features)
This feels more like something half-way between a private ledger and a public one. It also seems susceptible to cartels pooling enough stake to usurp one of the known entities as a block producer or otherwise contaminate the voting pool.
Wells Fargo? Small governments a la Zimbabwe or Venezuela? BP? Just because an entity is well known and has a reputation does not mean they are bound to uphold that reputation or have any accountability in a real sense. They could screw a lot of people before getting voted out of the system.
This is just another way of saying the market will sort it out. We know that's not true in the real world because of consolidation. One of the criticisms you leveled at the Cardano project was the natural consolidation of stake in the system would lead to imbalanced stake pools that their protocol doesn't account for. This will obviously lead to Too Big to Fail stakeholders. How does EOS cope with that should one of those large stakeholders turn bad actor? What does it mean to seize a stakeholder's bond? How does this lead to anything but more consolidation and in fact incentivizing cartels among large stakeholders to either attack each other or defend against financial attacks?
There also seem to be some odd features of the protocol to me - for reference I work on large, distributed systems in my day job as a software developer.
This obviously gives a performance improvement for irreversibility but makes the system vulnerable to network hiccups doesn't it? That's the benign case of course - what about deliberate interference by governments, ISPs, botnets, etc.?
How can those both be true? Assume a non-malicious network partition. There is some shared history between the cohorts of honest participants A <- B <- C. C is the last finalized block they share. When the network rights itself, you have 2 histories that likely contain multiple finalized blocks that have been confirmed by 2/3 of the participants in each partition. Now that the nodes can all see each other again, what happens? It seems there is no way all those finalized blocks survive or they aren't truly finalized or something. Perhaps you could construct a single chain out of them but it's possible that that a person has transactions in both chains that are irreconcilable (double spend). What happens here?
I'd like to reiterate that I am genuinely curious about these points, this isn't meant to be nitpicking.

@dan I want to invest in EOS and get in on this, but its saying since I'm in the USA, I can invest via the website. Anyway around that? This looks huge, the sooner the better... Thanks in advance. P.S, Are you leaving steemit completely? I see that your powering down a ton...
