RE: Breaking Beyond Bitoin: EOSIO/EOS Token Sale Github Repo is Available!
I have verrrry good reason to believe dan still cares about both chains.
EOS is not the steem/bts killer though. it is designed to make eth look like what it is: Vaporware
Hm...i wonder why i might want to get EVERY ETH holder to try it? hehe..
EOS / STEEM / BTS are like the holy trinity of crypto, and I agree they will coexist rather nicely. I also believe Dan cares about his first two crypto-children.
My concern is that Dan might not have choice and the EOS shareholders are deciding to run the ICO on ETH to enrich themselves and divest at the expense of the BTS and STEEM communities who should benefit from the next Graphene platform.
I agree there is value in having the ETH crowd tempted to try EOS by proximity, as there is a huge amount of value floating around in ETH and this is a good way to get the flood flowing to EOS.
But the better way would be to force ETH to sell and buy BTS/STEEM. Market cap and liquidity increases and a bunch of supply is taken off the market and tied up with the EOS team. Absolutely a huge win for BTS/STEEM.
Instead all the benefits go to ETH. It does not make sense. Unless you are an EOS shareholder with huge ETH holdings and you know EOS is going eat ETH for breakfast. Then it makes perfect sense.
Yeh but you wont force them to unfortunately. You have to incentivize them. And yes you could...and you would give a bigger cut to the bts and steem people but that isnt the only reason to do things. I do understand what you are saying amd im glad you think about it :)
Yes carrot and stick... you are correct that the carrot will win more ETH devs initially so perhaps it is for the best. On the flip side ETH is very much vaporware that doesn't do anything really useful on a large scale. If Dan can deliver, and he has a hell of a track record, EOS is very, very big stick that all rational ETH devs and investors will not be able to ignore. EOS does what ETH has spent years talking about doing, and does it better. :D

He doesn't need their devs...EOS uses Wren Scripting language. Hehe... ;)
