RE: ...

in #eos7 years ago

there's also the question of how many actually get fully developed and gain traction in the market.

and whether Ethereum will be able to scale fast enough to handle the transaction volume for all those apps. cuz at this point, it's probably nowhere near capable. EOS, on the other hand...

Sort:  

I agree. On paper EOS has it hands down. But that’s on paper. And Ethereum has first mover advantage. Time will tell

first mover advantage and alot of momentum. BIG players on board.

though yeah, time will tell.

if Ethereum can't scale fast enough and EOS sweeps in and catches... could be a different matter. though, it also doesn't have to be either-or - ultimately, the greatest success will probably be had in cooperation rather than competition, and there could be some serious synergy through which both succeed wildly (consider the statement that EOS could run all of Ethereum in a single contract - not rendering Ethereum obsolete, but powerfully serving to complement and enhance it)...

True. I think we are a couple of years away from that as EOS won’t launch properly for 9 months or so. I hold some EOS so I’m hoping it does well.

A good read of the business lit will tell you that first mover advantage is overrated.

im considering developing either on ethereum or eos. for one thing, there are pros and cons to each not hands down winner. Eos only has 21 validators. that is quite centralised. ethereum is moving to PoS. Id prefer if they move to a hybrid. But id prefer a proof of work above all. But bitcoin has its drawbacks too..
