We recently covered EOS in our beginner’s guide section. We discussed what EOS is, its advantages, its basic work model and so on. However, we never mentioned the top 5 EOS dApps. In this article, we will do just that.
EOS is a decentralized platform that works similar to Ethereum. This means it can be used to create dApps. EOS also has smart contracts that can be coded to run on the platform. EOS as a platform shows great promise and is at par with the likes of similar platforms such as Ethereum.
So, what differentiates it from Ethereum? According to the developers, it is way faster than Ethereum. With it, 50,000 transactions per second can be done by developers. On top of that, the transactions are free of cost. The EOS platform was promising from the start, but it started getting attention after DAWN 2.0 is released. The biggest positive point of the platform is that none other than Don Laimer built it. He is a cryptocurrency expert. He has already developed two successful cryptocurrency project, Steem and BitShares.
One more thing that makes EOS a great choice for developers is that it supports scalability to a new level. Now that we have covered some basic feature-set of EOS, let’s explore the top 5 EOS decentralized applications.
