EOS, tokens are held in accounts, not by the keys themselves. ... The EOS Active Key and the EOS Owner Key work as passwords in EOS to unlock and use an EOS account. The difference is the Owner Key acts as the "master password" and can be used to reset the keys associated with an account.

Sorry, that explains exactly nothing to me. Never mind though
I'm ignorant of this stuff, so when I asked "What is an EOS
Account" I assumed you'd begin be saying what EOS
Stands for. See, ignorant. Thanks anyway. ♥

EOS is another, 'new' cryptocurrency ... and just like you have a STEEM account, same thing with EOS... both blockchains require accounts in order for you to interact with them.

EOS doesn't stand for anything in particular, I think Eos is some Greek Goddess ... but beyond that can't tell you too much, ther than EOS is founded by the same person who made Steem and Bitshares, @dan Larimer...

Okay thanks.
In Greek mythology, Eos "dawn", pronounced [ɛːɔ̌ːs] or [héɔːs] is a Titaness and the goddess of the dawn, who rose each morning from her home at the edge of the Oceanus.

Eos had a brother and a sister, Helios, god of the sun, and Selene, goddess of the moon.

I thought if your are going to be promoting this new thing, you should know the history of the name. ☺
