Securing a Decentralized and Prosperous EOS
BP’s are now having to face the harsh reality of shutting their doors permanently as a result of not making the minimum 0.5% vote threshold. — BlockGenic

Well Said! The EOS community needs to take a more active roll in the voting process. Problem is we need a solid, easy to use, safe, secure wallet preferably from Block.One. There are to many tools out at the moment that are NOT user friendly. They require extensive explanations with to many warning ⚠️ signs. Also binance not allowing withdrawals are hurting votes.

My Quick RANT….😠

EOS for the community 🤔…. I get it. The EOS plateform was made for the community. Mr. Dan Larimar, which I have much respect and trust for, along with the Block.One decided to step aside and throw this project out to the community, so that we can make it ours. But, Mr.Larimar being Block.One’s Leader, also EOS Leader, created 2 children (BitShares & Steemit)prior to Child #3 (EOS). I was under the impression experience would be a huge advantage. Block.One could of at the LEAST provided a wallet that token holders could easily and safely Register the old ERC20 Token address, import private keys, create new accounts, have airdrop token support, ram purchase/sell option, stake and unstake EOS Tokens, and MOST importantly VOTING readily available! This should of been priority prior to launching the mainnet in order to guide the community in the birthing stages.

We now have a situation where all BP’s and Block.One are running around with there heads spinning putting out fires.
Why I personally beleive BP’s that have put $$$$$$ to build there own bare metal infrastructure servers (some also utilize cloud services) should be in the Top 21 more so than those who are cloud ONLY. Cloud only opens up the ability for “Guy/Girl” sitting at home and/or scammers that hold thousands of EOS tokens to basically work there way up to the TOP .05% BP spot and get rich quick all while doing nothing else. Hey we are in this situation now 👍…. 😒.

Yes, there are legitimate BP’s running cloud only servers and we know who they are. Those BP’s are doing a great job working the community, creating wallets, participating in governance, etc. But let’s be real. If you can’t afford to run a proper, business/self owned EOS node then you shouldn’t be considered as a BP.

Here are Very Important reasons laid out by AcroEOS BP Candidate as to WHY VOTE Dedicated NOT Cloud EOS BP Candidates :👇

[ AcroEOS block producer security infrastructure
Before we started on structuring the AcroEOS infrastructure our team has compare the advantages and disadvantages on both BareMetal server and Cloud server. After long evaluations our team has decided to build an EOS server with Korean standard compliance of financial server operation. Following are the reasons we decided to go on with Baremetal server.

  1. Data breaches: Data breaches are problems that is not only in the cloud computing, but it can be major concerns for cloud customers. Cloud environment is exposed to the same problems which exist in corporate network, and additional attacks could be reached through shared resources, cloud service employees, and third-party partners of cloud service providers through those devices.
  2. In adequate Identification and access management: Inadequete user can masquerading as legitimate user such as operator or developers and read, extract, modify, delete data.
  3. Malicious insider: malicious insiders such as system administrator can access potential valuable information. Malicious insider can increase access to critical system and data. System that rely solely on cloud service providers have potential of security risk.
  4. Insufficient Due Diligence: Management should always carefully consider selecting cloud technology and cloud service providers when setting up a business strategy. Adopting cloud technology and choosing a cloud service provider without due diligence can expose to potential commercial, financial, technical, legal, and regulatory compliance risks.

Additionally EOS is ultimately aiming to become block chain based cloud computing platforms to provide benefits of blockchain’s integrity, interoperability, and transparency. In its ultimate goal EOS is a competitor to services that provide cloud computing such as Amazon AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. AcroEOS believes that to provide block-chain cloud computing services it is important that the EOS mainnet system is dependent on other competing cloud computing services, AcroEOS have decided to use baremetal servers because use of public cloud computing services may bring centralization.]
