RE: Introducing EOS.IO Application Stack

in #eos7 years ago

I agree on your "20-30 tps" and that sucks but it seems Ethereum's Serinity release may cover most of these issues as it may shift to POS. Yes scalability is one of the critical consideration while designing a product but Ethereum had no one to look after.
I have worked in front-office of a major investment bank designing and developing low latency applications (using solace object caching, queuing servers, protocol buffers and extensive multi threaded).
It's not only Dan's brain but his whole team needs to be sound enough to carry such a project to a level where everyone has these high hopes.
Dan and VB are great minds of this blockchain space and I admire both equally. I am investor in both after carefully analyzing situations in this space.
I am investing in EOS gradually so that I could average out my risk but with all due respect I don't think anyone else including Dan could give up all his ETH for EOS. At this stage it is riskier than ever.
People are investing in Dan more than EOS as a system. So I simply wonder Dan doesn't get a huge offer for some other project where he just leaves EOS hanging around after his contract/partnership gets done with block one.
Though everyone has their opinion and I personally respect it as there are always differences of opinion which time could prove correct or wrong. Obviously I am planning to buy EOS now as it's a hell of a dip as of now for EOS and may be we may not see such a price later. Though invest wisely if it's your hard earned money. Cheers mate :) !!!

This is not entirely true. It had bitshares to look at. Because bitshares at that time had somewhere around 10x eths capabilities today....before eth was even launched. :/

What is not entirely true? How can you even compare Bitshares with ETH now? Both are different platforms. Again as I said earlier I am not biased. As of now ETH is way ahead in adoption, price and technology as EOS is yet in development phase. Did you see what happened to Tezos? Ya, so I wish both EOS and ETH good luck, and may time decide which one is better.
I commented because Johnsmith was indirectly misguiding people by stating "he invested 100% in EOS and zero in ETH". Some poor fellow may be completely misguided by such posts and may sell all his/her ETH for EOS. It's his call but spreading such rumors ain't good for the community. So invest wisely and don't rely on such biased comments or views.
