Not really a scam imo, it's just a shit token and a non decentralized blockchain.

EOS was a legitimate project in the beginning. It had good block producers who actually cared about the community and it worked well. I made a lot of money on EOS, both investing and from dapps. But at some point it did turn into a scam, and now we recently found out that Block.one just converted all their investor's money to BTC and have been sitting on like $10 billion worth of BTC for the past 3 years instead of funding development or delivering on any of their promises.

I sold a year ago after Voice came out and it became clear to me that these fools were just milking people. Dan and Brendan are scammers who belong behind bars.

I went to check out the EOS reddit after the Dan rug, and it's fucking packed with ADA shills trying to hoover up the disillusioned EOS people kek. Incredibly funny when people who don't really know how blockchains work try to sound smart by puking up technical terms.

Negative. I know the founders personally and they are frat bro-y scumbags who saw the opportunity to make a quick buck and took it. Never cared about making a useful product. Not friends with them, have worked w/ them and been in social situations where they get drunk and have no issues admitting this to certain people.

I predict it will happen to every other project playing on "l1 blockchain governance card" btw no matter how much nodes they have
>>25974904
Yup
Every normie is ada shill now since eos and xrp are out of the game for good prob
Go to ada plebit and ask any really legitimate questions, literally any (utxo/why?,security paid by inflation/how is it sustainable? and so on) you get mobbed as fuder, "not not trusting charles" and so on

DPoS can work with a better governance system that punishes collusion and vote buying. The problem with EOS was that its structure was flawed from the start, which allowed bad actors to gain power, and said bad actors will then never allow the system to be fixed because they would lose their power.

That was my buy signal. Went all-in and it did a 5x after that aired which is where I made most of my crypto stack.

wtf is wrong with Dan Larimer? How can a man with objectively high intelligence, with new and original ideas, a crypto OG go on abandoning one project after another?

>> No.25976039

>>25975958
>new and original ideas
The EOS idea is literally just to abandon decentralization in favour of TPS. They have a "rule" that block producers can't collude and that exchanges can't vote that is completely unenforceable in-protocol and relies on social consensus. It was always an absolute shit.
