EOS aims to make it easy for programmers to embrace blockchain technology. To do this, the project is investing millions into the creation of resources and educational tools to help developers easily onboard the platform.
If EOS becomes the most user-friendly blockchain available to developers, they can be certain it will become the go-to choice for developers. Where the developers go, the users will flow.
Other goals include fixing the scalability issues faced by other blockchains, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. This mainly includes the time for transactions to be processed and the cost of doing so.
By improving the experience for both developers and users, EOS hopes to capture a larger percentage of the pie that’s currently being fought over by many layer 1 blockchains. This fight is currently led by Ethereum. This ambition is why many have dubbed EOS an “Ethereum killer” since its launch.
Let’s dive into EOS and figure out how it works, what makes it so cool, and its drawbacks.
So how does it work?
EOS makes the development of blockchain-based applications easy. Think of a platform like Shopify or Wix. Look at how easy they made it for developers to build websites. Everything a developer needed was put into one place and made super accessible and easy to understand. These projects invested heavily in training, education, and user-friendly tools. That’s what EOS is doing for businesses and individuals entering Web3.The fundamentals of EOS Token and EOS.IO
Okay, so let’s keep things clear and concise.EOS.IO is like the operating system of a computer. Think of it like iOS, or macOS on your Apple products. It manages and controls the EOS blockchain.
EOS is the native token used on the blockchain. They can be used as payment on the network. Developers hold them to access tools and build on the network. And with them, holders have a kind of governance on the network (which we’ll go over when we discuss how the EOS network is secured).
What makes EOS special?
Firstly, EOS is tackling the scalability faced by its rival Ethereum. It does this by utilising a different consensus mechanism to secure its network. A consensus mechanism is a method in which a network verifies transactions on a blockchain and is key to maintaining security. Ethereum is notoriously bad at this, with security that is considered slow and expensive. EOS solving this issue is its first big win.Secondly, if it makes it as easy to build dApps on their platforms as they claim, developers will shift over to their platform and build on EOS. This would in turn bring more apps, and then more users, to the network.
So, by making dApp development easier, and solving issues of scalability, EOS could become a dominant space in this competitive landscape.
How can EOS improve scalability?
As mentioned, EOS uses a different consensus mechanism, which eliminates the slow transaction times and high gas fees faced by competitors. The consensus mechanism used by EOS is called delegated proof-of-stake.Delegated proof of stake works similarly to regular proof of stake (PoS). However, it involves a voting and delegation mechanism to incentivize users to secure the network with their staked collateral.
Delegated proof of stake allows users to spend their coins to vote for various delegates. They essentially choose who gets to verify the transaction. The delegated proof of stake mechanism utilised by EOS appears to be an effective one that is both sustainable and scalable.
A centralisation issue?
The EOS platform was built by a company called Block.one.As we discussed in a positive light before, token holders have the ability to vote on who gets to verify the transactions thanks to the delegated proof of stake consensus mechanism. They also have the ability to vote on other factors, such as protocol changes.
However, critics view this as negative. They believe that the extensive involvement of Block.one means the decentralisation that makes most blockchains so appealing is lost. The tokenomics, however, don’t really suggest this, as only 10% of tokens from the ICO continued to be held by the founders, with 90% going to investors. Also note that this allocation to Block.one isn’t happening overnight, but over a 10 year period.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the 3X Value Guarantee work?
We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
