RE: A Smart Contract Platform Without Transaction Costs or the Need For 'gas' Will Finally Offer Proper Incentive To DApp Developers. An 'Ownership' Model Will Always Be More Efficient Than A 'Rental' Model In Terms Of Entitlement From Stake.

Well I'm just going to say I disagree. EOS makes trade offs. ETH and EOS are not mutually exclusive. Look at my recent post, ETH can work under the same fee-less model that EOS and steem share.

There are real applications running on Ethereum. It would be nieve to say otherwise.

Ethereum has its own value, EOS will curate their own value.
