Literally no one has used it yet, also the entire point of how Block.One has designed EOS is as enterprise software. They're not going to hold your hands, CLI tools are considered the norm in enterprise, server side software. Why is this so hard for you reddit cucks to understand, Block.One develops the software for the Block Producers, the blockproducers develop interfaces for the end users. This actually makes EOS more flexible as it gives a wide range of different options for how you experience it. The same way CypherGlass is currently funding a hardware wallet.

Meanwhile ETH still has essentially only two functional ways to interact with the blockchain, MEW and MetaMask, and even then with most DAPPs using MEW is an absolute pain.

It's incredible the type of mental gymnastics you faggots go through to 'catch out' EOS. You are the crypto equivalent of 'gotcha journalists' and it's infuriating. Always ready to jump on any technicality that somehow proves it was a scam. There are simple, EASY to use GUI tools produced by trustworthy block producers that work as a front end for the CLI. But it doesn't matter to you, it doesn't matter to you if I LITERALLY walk you through how it works and why you're wrong if you say Block.One didn't provide a voting tool, because it wasn't a download iOS app with a big shiny button. That's what the block producers are for, that's why the system is actually unique and clever. One back end made by one company, many extensible front ends by others.

Does it matter that EOS had one of the most active githubs ever? Nope because of that one bug some chinks found a week ago. Etc. Etc. It's frustrating talking to you guys not because us EOS bagholders are coping, but because its abundantly clear you've made up your minds.

God damn you guys really do argue like jewish lawyers. As soon as I counter a point, instead of ever recognising it's validity, it's immediately a pivot.

Gee I don't fucking know, why is ETH worth 50 billion, or never mind that 150 billion at its peak, when THE NUMBER ONE DAPP ON IT IS CRYPTO KITTIES. Honestly every time I point this out you fuckers disappear, you never address this. You never explain what ethereum, right now, is USED for besides ICOs. ICOs and ponzi scheme trading card games. Does this justify 150 billion market cap at peak and nearly 50 billion now?

How about the fact that none of this crypto stuff is really justifiable yet, no one even really knows if decentralisation is possible, scalable, or even useful. This market is built around hype, and marketing, and some degree of functionality. EOS can market itself, it doesn't fucking matter why it's better than AWS because no one really knows why ETHEREUM is better than AWS, because decentralisation for now only makes sense for black market currencies. Smart contracts are literally years away from being deployed at a minimum, and we still don't even know the amount of decentralisation necessary.

What I will tell you is the mere existence of AWS does not make EOS obsolete and pointless, because EOS is not shares in a company that turns a profit, it's a currency meant to drive a blockchain which is currently a very big buzzword, so there's a lot of upside potential.

Honestly do you guys just have a script like telemarketers use? First accuse it of being vapourware, then accuse Dan of being a PnD scammer, then accuse EOS of centralisation (despite again not address the FIVE MINING POOLS THAT CONTROL ETH), etc.

What kills me most of all though is how ideologically driven this is, it's like you guys suddenly really care about the underlying product, when I bet if I looked through your blockfolio it'd be full of moonshot shitcoins.

They did, via the block producers. Does it ever cross your mind that this shit is by *design* that the entire purpose is to stimulate competition between block producer candidates to produce better products?

Does it ever cross your mind that the whole reason bitcoin works is because of how it leverages incentives to allow for independent parties to secure the network, that this is precisely what made bitcoin 'decentralised' and that in the same way that bitcoin rewards miners with bitcoin for processing transaction, EOS is attempting to take that concept and expand it immensely by essentially incentivising EVERY aspect of the blockchain with EOS tokens at a lower inflation rate than ETH.

So whereas in bitcoin the only variable determining your reward amount is the raw amount of processing power you contribute, with EOS because the participants are block providers who are voted in, their rewards are proportional to the entire sum of the service they provide. This isn't laziness this is actually genius, it's using the game theory that was foundational in Bitcoins whitepaper but applying it to every aspect. So block providers will compete to provide better interfaces, better wallets, better uptime, lower fees, etc. It's like taking a 1 dimensional variable and taking it into 3 dimensions.

In fact if block.one DID provide an official wallet, it would undermine this process because everyone would use that. But no you don't care, you don't care that people who have been in this space a lot longer than you, who understand the game theory behind why bitcoin works and what makes it decentralised are really excited about EOS.

Because >muh only 21 producers
>muh brock pierce is a pedo
>muh year long ICO

You literally have no inkling of the ideas EOS has put out. EOS may fail, but others WILL copy its model because it is unique, and it may be better, we don't know yet. But to say it's centralised vs ETH is ignorant at best, disingenous at worst.

Honestly you must be baiting me, surely you know how obvious this is. This is like saying 'Lol why does it matter if facebook is better than myspace, I think myspace is shit'. You are intentionally creating a framework for this discussion in which it is IMPOSSIBLE to establish value statements. By disavowing Ethereum and simply making general criticism of cryptocurrency (such as its lack of decentralisation) but aiming them squarely at EOS you create a catch-22.

If I point out EOS strong performance, you'll simply say it's not decentralised because of it. If I point out its as decentralised as Ethereum or Bitcoin, you'll simply disavow them and say they are also shit.

Explain the value proposition of decentralisation? True decentralisation is a dead end because it enters direct competition with too many bureaucrats, things like Monero can exist under the shadows, but a truly decentralised ETH like cryptocurrency that actually triggers enforceable contracts etc, incentivised via tokens held by a bunch of NEETs, WILL. NEVER. HAPPEN.

The best we'll ever get is some government blockchain run by several countries, secured not by tokens, but by bureaucrats. You know that the single most powerful force in this world is not the military, or CIA or anything like that, it's the millions of paper pushers securing themselves pensions by being horribly inefficient but because they control the keys to adoption they will never make themselves obsolete.

Don't believe me? Technology will 'find a way'? Look at healthcare in America lmao, so expensive and it hasn't gotten any cheaper in years and years. You're chasing a pipe dream kid, I'm trying to tell you to make money selling this trinket, this thing that will give you decent returns based on marketing and a novel approach, maybe many years down the line there will be a better alternative.

You've filled your head with ideology, if the value proposition of decentralisation is so great, why is no one doing anything with it? Please tell me why is the top 5 ETH DAPPS basically a bunch of digital ponzi schemes? What are we waiting for? Sharding? Plasma? So when those come out, in however many months then we'll see adoption? You're gonna get cut out man, the corporations that do use blockchains will use hyperledger.

I have already explained why having the block producers develop the front end for the user experience is a design choice, it is fundamentally better. It leverages competition, 70 block producers competing for 21 spots means each producer will try and develop better tools. Instead of just each redirecting towards the 'official tool', imagine if instead of miners wasting computer power competing on producing the most number of hashes, that investment and money was redirected to maximising the user experience.

Let that sink in, don't reply yet. Really consider, slowly, what I just said.

>Imagine if all the money miners on Ethereum or Bitcoin, instead of investing the money on ASICs to produce endless hash functions, invested that money into providing better service for the end user

Do you get it yet? Please tell me you fucking get it. EOS is taking the principle behind mining, where tokens are rewarded to people who produce the most hashes, and instead rewarding people who contribute to the product. A block producer makes a shitty wallet? This is the moment to shine for another block producer to make a better one and secure votes. This leverages competition without WASTING it, but leveraging for the best possible end user experience. For the love of god please tell me you understand why this is clever, at the very least even if it doesn't work in the end, its fucking clever.

>> No.9865455

too bad they can't compete on the basis of the only thing that matters to every holder, the block reward inflation. enjoy the 5% inflation forever!

all the things you mention are provided as public goods, and can't provide the basis for competitive improvement.

if EOS was designed for the benefit of its users, block producers would compete on the basis of accepting the lowest compensation, and the funding for public goods would be decoupled and provided for by a different on-chain governance mechanism.

instead, it was designed from the start to allow cartels to form and extract monopoly rents forever.

I'm not that other guy, I'm telling you exactly what my primary problem with EOS is, and what I think its successor will fix.

anybody with half an understanding of economics, game theory and political science would have been able to deductively come to these same conclusions.

EOS expects token holders to make (and be sufficiently informed) about allocating massive economic rewards without themselves having any direct economic interest.

if you're a token holder, you get to decide which cartel will ass-rape you for 5% on the basis of how many warm fuzzies they give you, in the form of public goods that they either have already delivered (no further incentive), or are yet to deliver (no direct way to hold them accountable).

EOS=bitfinex coin
Given how few people turn out to vote, one big exchange that votes can instantly take over the chain by electing BPs they control
(they are not _supposed_ to vote because that breaks eos constitution).
When analyzing security only the weakest point required to obtain full control matters. Ie. if your door is made of wood it doesn't matter how good your titanium padlock is.

Yes, bitfinex is not going to attack the chain, but what if they are hacked? Bitfinex was hacked at least once already, they lost 120k BTC two years ago.

EOS is the first crypto platform that effectively relies on security of just one exchange. If a hack happens the attackers can do literally everything, as EOS is fully mutable. This includes changing the state of any dapp with potentially irreversible external effects. In other words, EOS is fully centralized to just one entity.

5% inflation is so minimal, consider that in order to outpace that you need to simply grow your value base BY five percent, and because it's going to go to block producers who can get voted on, they aren't gonna get it for free. Ok so this is where it's about how cynical you are, on PAPER the system is brilliant. The 5% inflation can be thought of as a reinvested dividend, which most investors believe reinvesting dividends (instead of paying them out) is good. EOS grows in value, 5% is paid out to block producers to keep improving the product.

People would have said the same thing about bitcoin 'democratically securing a network, LMAO' except thats the whole point of the 'coin' aspect, have you been living under a rock? EOS is simply extrapolating the foundational concept of bitcoin, if you can incentivise network security, you can just as easily incentivise network development.

You know when we say democratically create code, the block producers aren't all gonna be working on a single github of the source code. Thats the fucking point of block.one, they are like the trunk of the tree, they're the base, that is NOT done democratically. The block producers optimise performance and produce front ends, concurrently NOT concertedly. So then people have options. The worst providers will continuously get weeded out.

>>9865562

This is now cynicism, so this is not a criticism of any of the 'on paper' aspects of EOS, it's a criticism of how things will play out. Which we don't know for sure, but I do know I can't argue against cynicism. Jihan, maybe not now, but at one point could certainly have done a 51% attack on BTC but it would devalue it. I think ultimately market incentives dominate, bitfinex has MORE profit to be made acting more or less transparently and supporting the infrastructure/design of EOS, than it does forming a manipulative cartel. I also believe that the current vote to launch is NOT indicative of individual participation once mainnet and dapps are active. In the same way that in the first year of ETH people just kept it in wallets, it was over time people started installing stuff like metamask and interacting with the web 3.0. In the same way EOS will ease people into being proactive with voting and interacting with blockchains.

But again, EOS's vulnerabilities, will different in nature, are no more severe than bitcoins, especially in the first 8 years of bitcoins existence. Like with all community driven things, a bit of luck is needed.

Is this the new pivot? How about its better than ARK precisely because after 14 months ARK has less brand awareness than fucking Tron, compared to EOS which is only just getting warmed up. Or that by having an immediate ICO, which brainlets will argue is better, the people who profited the most from ARKs price rise are early whales, not the dev team. EOS kept selling tokens as the price went up, so nearly half of the market cap of EOS is funds available to EOS to market their product (and they will market the shit out of it), or how about that there are *700* Ark delegates. You think thats better because its 'more decentralised'? If you have 700 delegates on a coin with a 180 MM market cap, with profit sharing, how the hell are these shoestring budget operations going to improve the product?

You see it still clicked in your mind why EOS is different, you're still thinking in the mind numbing, spreadsheet style 'point scoring' autism of previous PoS systems, where all that matters is how well the coins are distributed, what percentages are being given to stake holders etc. But ultimately the reason these models are unsustainable is because nothing is giving these coins value beyond their baseless accumulation.

I have tried to address every point in a non-shilly way, but at this point I'm just gonna fucking shill because I've earned it. EOS is taking traditional business models, traditional value creation models, and leveraging them using the incentives established in blockchain. By distributing the coins entirely to block producers, by having a smaller number of highly powerful BPs, you create a system much closer to a traditional business. These BPs can actually DO something. Will they do something? That's up to us to find out, but at least they have some decent incentives to do it.

They lie to you and say it's better this way, but its essentially a pyramid where the devs are actually in the middle because of ICOs, and the whales who don't give two FUCKS about the project have the controlling stake, then they shill you these bags and you're stuck with them. Devs have no real incentive to do anything but dump because even if they increase the value of their tokens, they can only ever diminish their supply, they can't create more tokens (because that's '''bad''' lmao) do you not see where this is going? Everyone is saying 'oh well blockchain isn't producing anything' because every blockchain product so far is modelled in this bizarre way where revenue is ultimately going to users not employees. The whole system makes no sense, really close your eyes and think about it.

Lol I'm not really trying to persuade you, I'm trying to have this shit memorialised in this thread so a year from now I can look back at how insane this whole bubble was. How absolutely ridiculously the whole thing was structured, people expect to stake coins in a network, then receive a monthly percentage of these staked coins, and then other people will just develop and improve the network for them?

>They'll improve it because they'll also hold coins

But then you demonstrate that such a model has poor economics because I the dev hold X amount of coins, do X amount of work, and you the '''early adopter''' who does 0 work, provides 0 additional funding, and bought for pennies reaps the rewards of that work? These systems are not sustainable business models, you're asking for a free lunch. EOS solves these with an inflation system that goes towards the value producers, if they fail to produce value, then sell your coins, I will and I'll walk away from EOS. But you cannot fault the EOS *model* as it's the only one that makes sense. Every other model essentially rewards people for buying before everyone else and not selling. This model works for bitcoin because the fundamentals of bitcoin are relatively constant, it's a 'store of value' or a 'currency', depending on your viewpoint. However if you're developing a platform that intends to work as a 'service' like ETH or ARK or whatever, you hamstring the platform by ensuring the vast majority of rewards simply go to early adopters for no reason. EOS is structured in such a way that new value is given to the value producers, whilst your investment grows in value in a linear and sustainable way, any PoS that does not have inflation is essentially a ponzi scam. Likewise coins that produce a service like Ethereum, require developers who are essentially self funded, to create value for miners. The entire system is messy. The incentives that work for bitcoin don't work for PaaS without reworking like EOS did.

You're not helping your point, how will they fund development of the project?

It's better that EOS depends on developments from the BPs. I don't know how else to break it down for you, the traditional incentive models of PoW and PoS don't work for platform based cryptocurrency. Think about how business work, they have shareholders, the shareholders value increases from the demand for shares, but the revenue from sales and product development goes to employees. These balance each other out.

The business spends its money becoming a better business and the shareholders value increases from external demand. Now translate this to traditional PoS, it doesn't work because essentially there are no 'employees' since the way the cryptocurrency is structured you have to own shares to make a profit, but companies end up selling all the shares during the ICO. The reward model doesn't work. Saying that EOS is shit because you can't trust the BPs is like saying a company will fail because you can't trust it's employees. That's a fair point, but it's on the BPs, the MODEL that EOS is using is better though full stop. The BPs will develop products and services built on a singular source code, the BPs will receive the inflation.

It's funny that this 'inflation' thing upsets so many people because they've been conditioned by the pyramid like structure of most cryptos for so long but it's the only route that makes sense because how else do you continuously ensure a revenue stream for your 'employees'? Why do you think so many coins just stagnate after an initial burst of development?

Let me rephrase it this way, lets look at it as a series of problems:

Ethereum spends a lot of resource on mining, ethereum needs scaling solutions like plasma. Wouldn't it be great if the resources spent on mining, were spent on developing plasma and sharding? Yes? Great ok so now we have PoS!

>>9865978

So we agree PoS is a better resource allocation than PoW. But theres another issue, PoS will still just reward the people with the most coins the most, I mean thats fair enough since they are the early adopters, but in some cases some really talented great developers have NO coins. Should they work for free? What about as the coins get more expensive, how are newer, better, young talent going to be able to reap the rewards of their contribution if the barrier for entry keeps getting higher? It's like being hired by Google but then being told 'your salary depends on how many shares of Google you own'.

So then we agree everyone benefits if the people who contribute the MOST get the best reward. So maybe the PoS rewards should be allocated by developer contribution, not by simple wallet holdings.

UH OH. New problem. Who decides who the employees are? How do you maintain a 'decentralised' structure if you need someone determined how much money developers get of the new blocks. Ok well then lets have a voting system where everyone votes on the developers they like the most.

Bang, you get the 21 BP system. Now the 21 BPs eos has may be scummy bastards. But there is *no* better model right now. Everyone upset about inflation doesn't get that you can't continuously employ people to develop and improve your platform (since its more complex than a currency) without inflation.

The problem is if EOS succeeds it spells absolute DEATH for the masternode scams that are rampant in crypto. You know most people making money in crypto do so shilling bullshit masternodes that are just races to accumulate the most before you get dumped on then move on to the next one. EOS is taking PoS from a pyramid style spreadsheet race, into actual product development with 'employee' salaries' This is why so many pajeets from their discords spend all day FUDDING it.

It isn't even ETH holders, it's fucking masternode shills who push bags of COLX etc.

>>9866029

At some point you have to trust the game theory, basically individuals are very very dumb, and yet they can come together and create very complex things as long as you establish the right framework. Every participant in EOS is incentivised to produce the best product, 21 BPs is small enough that you can have a focused group of devs, with oversight, everyone can get to know each BP intimately from memory, whilst also large enough to counteract bad actors. If it was 3 BPs I'd be worried.

Let me put it this final way, EOS is not a democracy, it's a republic. But just because it isn't a democracy doesn't make it a monarchy or a dictatorship. The great thing about republics is that they are 'guided' democracies, there is a balance of accountabilities both ways. People can't really be scammed into accidentally voting for some single pajeet, because there is oversight over BP candidacy. Likewise BPs aren't totally autocratic.

I'm telling you, EOS might fail, but it's model is the best shot we've got.

You don't get it, it's not supposed to be a company, but a base layer protocol. The development is supposed to be temporary until everything works by itself. Sort of like C language, the standard is very old and finished.

I know that and the real Ethereum wallet, MIST, is garbage. But if you read through all my posts you'll see that my point is development for ETH like most PoS coins is very much voluntary. It's *too* community driven, this makes it ultimately very slow and uncompetitive because as a developer you know the gains from your work will predominantly come from the tiny fraction of shares you own. Whilst early adopters reap all the benefits. Meanwhile EOS has a competitive model, as I explained above.

Eos inflation kills it long term because it goes to BPs. In 15 years past BPs own majority of the supply. Given how few people vote, how static BPs are likely to be and coins already owned by whales I give eos 2 years before BPs create a nonremovable cartel that votes for itself. 5% compounds fast.
A separate problem is risk of vote buying, it already exists, that's what eosdac airdrop was - they share 75% of rewards. This is a failure mode because as this creates the equivalent of social welfare (eg. sharing 99%) that can prevent investments.
>I'm telling you, EOS might fail, but it's model is the best shot we've got.

Jesus christ, are you that retarded. Do you not get that the circulating supply has been changing this whole time? So in the circle zoned, the price may have been 50 cents, but less than 10% of EOS was even circulating, PLUS you wouldn't be able to accumulate all of that 10% without making the price shoot up, so yeah maybe one or two super whales has like 1-2% of EOS at most.

>Benevolent dictator

He has less than 1% of the supply and unironically does most of the work. Have you been following what I've been saying? The problem is how to ensure a continuous flow of coins to the developers that increase those coins value, without relying on centralised authority. The solution is voting for developers/BPs and giving them the inflation. PoS/PoW simply ends up accumulating all the tokens in the hands of buyers. There needs to be a steady stream of tokens going to devs. Because as the scope of the coin expands, the number of devs needed grows, why do you think ETH development has slowed down despite a market cap of FIFTY fucking billion? Because most of that fifty billion is in the hands of NEETs fapping away to their pizza collections.

You are not thinking this through, 20 million was the VOLUME, that means how many times tokens changed hands, could have been the same token.

There was a 3 month period were prices were that low, that means TOTAL 180 million coins were in circulation by the end of that period.

First of all 2% is the most extreme example. Second of all BP voting is not first past the post, it's proportional representation, with an excess of 9. This means that 2% of the votes wouldn't ensure jack shit because even if you dedicate all the votes to yourself, everyone else can vote 30 times and you get fucked.

You literally said daily volume but whatever, again even assuming worst case scenario someone were to somehow accumulate 10% of the circulating supply at 50 cents without moving the price too high, which would be challenging, and as the price moved high the distribution price would move high during the ICO, so you couldn't use traditional sell wall tactics.

How then do you get past proportional representation? If BP voting was first past the post, 2% would make a difference, agreed. With PR, you'd need like 20% to make a difference.

Every EOS token can vote for 30 different candidates, but vote for the same candidate only ONCE. So for every 1% lead you want to ensure, you need a theoretical 30% larger number of tokens...

Are you starting to notice a pattern, that every scenario has been accounted for? It's almost like the organisation that raised billions planned this shit out.

Fundamentally different coin and situation, LISK delegates work more as tradition PoS delegates so there was less incentive to vote conscientiously and again the LISK ICO was handled differently, market cap was a lot smaller, crypto was a lot smaller in general. You're comparing apples to oranges at this point. The distributed nature of EOS coupled with PR voting system fundamentally makes it virtually impossible for a BP to vote itself in.

In fact you can witness for yourself a whale who attempted this got BTFO: flytomarseos, they reached 4th place and then plummeted to 17th and dropping.

Wrong, 75% of EOS in top 100 wallets, which includeds exchanges. Yes it's not ideal, but pareto distributions are actually a consequence of free markets, you cannot blame EOS for the fact that fewer people have more money and I'd rather unequal distribution than restricted selling.

25% are not in the top wallets. From the top wallets, 10% are from exchanges. The truth is that, excluding exchanges (and note that due to main net launch, most people were scared to hold the tokens themselves), the top 20 wallets are going to hold 15% of all EOS max, and Block one alone has 10% of those.
