Dan Larimer, the founder of EOS, took to the company’s Telegram chat to reveal some spicy news. Though Larimer did not say anything specific apart from some upcoming news in June, his actions quickly pumped the hype, spreading across social media almost immediately.
The company behind EOS, Block.One, simultaneously made a pre-announcement regarding an event in Washington, which is expected to take place on June 1.
As of writing, we couldn’t find any high-end technology events listed for this date, which makes us think that it will be EOS to reveal the exact nature of the supposed conference in the near future. According to Larimer’s words, this is going to be the biggest event since the launch of EOSIO. There is however an invite page were curious visitors can pre-register for B1June and get the latest updates related to it.
EOS is by far the favorite public blockchain of the Chinese government as seen here. The company has secured a handful of partnerships even though the network suffered a coin loss due to some exploited smart contracts. On the other hand, EOS remains one of the fastest blockchain projects globally, which is its strongest hand actually.
Blocktivity shows that on average the EOS blockchain settles over 20 million transactions on a daily basis. The daily record stands at the staggering 48 million transactions. Compared to dApps usage, EOS largely outperforms rival networks such as Ethereum, where there is a very small community of people using distributed apps.
CoinMarketCap has given EOS 907 “Health” points, which is a relatively high Fundamental Crypto Asset Score (FCAS). There are several factors that impact FCAS – asset maturity, user activity, and developer achievements being just a small portion of them.
In terms of RAM resource, the blockchain has hit a new low at 0,04 EOS per kB. Put simply this means better and faster user experience, especially when it comes to dApp usage. The network is expected to get more traction once it opens its APIs and integrates with other projects.
Not everyone is that is excited, however. One Twitter user replied:
“Announcement of an announcement 2 months out nice. Crypto never changes“
