EOS is said to be the Ethereum Killer. Lets have a look at the few key points of EOS
EOS is using blockchain to develop an OS to host dAPPs. (de-centralized Applications) - if you are not sure what dAPPs are .. remember! cryptokitties.. thats a perfect example of dAPPs and also a perfect example to discuss the difference between EOS and Ethereum.
EOS is going to provide great help to developers as they use normally used languages to code whereas Ethereum uses its own language
EOS is going to solve the scalability issues that Ethereum has recently. remember Cryptokitties, just one application and Ethereum network was acting ridiculously slow those days. EOS intends to provide the scalability solution so as these applications would be running lightening fast with no impact to the netwrok.
EOS has great support from the community as well.
Their CTO has quite a few successful projects to his profile (like SteemIT, Bitshares and others).
EOS is still under crowdsale. their crowdsale is ongoing and will finish on June 01, 2018. that's when their blockchain would actually release and applications will start building on to their blockchain
2018 is definitely going to be an exciting year for EOS. they have been well ahead of their schedule when it comes to deliverables. if they keep working like this, they can surely put up a great competition to Ethereum.
I will be writing a more detailed comparison of both the networks in the next post.
