EOS is a Delegated Proof-of-Stake cryptocurrency that launched in 2018 after a record-breaking ICO raising over $4.1bn. Its focus is on providing development flexibility, network scalability, and user-friendliness.

EOS is designed with the goal of mainstream adoption and thus not only attempts to maximize scalability, but also cater to enterprises with robust and secure software.

Its dedicated governance architecture was the first of its kind - including a constitution, arbitration forum, and more - and has been evolving since its inception.

EOS has a unique resource model that requires users to stake EOS tokens in order to receive and use RAM, CPU, and Network Bandwidth.
