EOS ICO Rating - White RabbitProject Market Vertical: DAOWhite Rabbit Rating: 86EOS is being built by an “all-star team building a technology” that seeks to “address many issues found in previous blockchains” - making “EOS is leap in evolution of Blockchain” with a “vast coffer of funding” which can ”attract the best dApps.” Users will be able to stake “EOS resources for fixed income streams.” However, there are some “doubts about the community and the legal issues” of a 1 year long ICO and “competition is pretty strong with Ethereum, Cardano and Stellar breathing down EOS' neck.” |
Individual Judge Ratings And Comments
Kurt Braget - Rating: 85
"I'm a big believer in this tech, but I'm a believer in shipping fast too so I'm hoping they could ship faster."
Dmitriy Perelstein - Rating: 80
"Lots of traction. Community is growing rapidly and new projects on EOS are lining up for the launch. Time will tell if this is a "one ring to rule them all" kind of market, but competition is pretty strong with Ethereum, Cardano and Stellar breathing down EOS' neck."
Eric Clark Su - Rating: 99
"Looks like it will deliver. Shame how the principal coder will leave soon."
Fred Krueger - Rating: 93
"One of the leading ether alternatives. Fast, scalable, cheap. Downside: no public testnet yet, may not deliver."
Ben Sigman - Rating: 98
"EOS is leap in evolution of Blockchain. Larimer and his team are experienced Blockchain developers. There is a huge community backing, and EOS has the best decentralized governance model yet. Allowing HODLers to “rent out” their tokens is another great feature."
Marianne Dansker - Rating: 94
"Team has high level of expertise from previous projects; tech is highly scalable both horizontally and vertically and solving a real market need, it has reached a high level of community backing but is still untested."
Fadi Admo - Rating: 80
"Great product and team. Huge potential. We are researching to build our product on EOS. - Lot’s of competition and price is quitte high at this point."
Gabe Luna-Ostaseski - Rating: 90
"Great vision and I think that there value prop of usability and speed will appeal to many developers that don’t need maximum censorship resistance and fully distributed network of verifiers."
Tom Howard - Rating: 95
"Next-gen blockchain vision, excellent technical team, working testnet, very strong on biz dev and background partnerships. Likely become huge in 2018, has a chance of displacing ethereum."
Kartik Mandaville - Rating: 70
"Very promising but haven't seen any real progress yet. No testnet and no dapps built yet."
Matthew King - Rating: 95
"Dan Larimer is a genius, David Moss is brilliant, and the rest of the team is quite solid. Clear first mover advantage as the go to OS for DApps but competitors are coming fast including Hashgraph."
Everett Carney - Rating: 93
"Pro - Larimer has launched two extremely successful projects in the past. Pro - massive developer support and very promising outlook for scalability. Con - main net launch is murky, not really sure how block producers are going to be selected and not sure what happens if someone gives the middle finger and launches their own chain."
Marc Weinstein - Rating: 92
"EOS attacking major issue in crypto industry: scalability without losing decentralization (dPOS more decentralized than POW). EOS dPOS protocol has been tested and improved by EOS creator, Dan Larimer in both Steem & BitShares. Strong dev community, large dev fund resources to attract the best dApps + early investors will be able to lease their EOS resources for fixed income streams. Biggest challenge is political. Multiple chains may be created immediately due to block producer voting."
Josh Smith - Rating: 85
"Airdrop investments are interesting, platform has lots of promise, no proof yet. Volume of money being tossed around may be coloring perceptions. Creator has never taken a project to ETH level scale, leaves projects frequently."
David Lewis - Rating: 85
"Strong platform Blockchain that we have yet to see dapps released on. Seasoned team. Dan Larimer has multiple operating public blockchains (but I have some concerns over the way things have played out with Steem). Good use of its massive war chest to fund companies building dapps."
Michael Steuer - Rating: 85
"Ambitious project with disruptive potential. Strong team that knows how to execute. Groundbreaking governance model. Have some concerns around approach to security, or lack thereof.
Valerie Krutanova - Rating: 85
"The product is promising and resolves many problems for users."
Josh Kriger - Rating: 90
"With Mainnet on the way in less than 40 days and lots of developer stickiness, EOS is one of the most promising platform projects in the space. Their vast coffer of funding if used correctly can accelerate adoption, consult companies through technical roadblocks and build a vibrant ecosystem. Competition looms large and scaling unknowns remain but it’s a hard project to bet against."
Tom Duncan - Rating: 95
"EOS could be a scalable base layer for dApps - which for blockchain to be a useful technology, is a really important function. There is a significant amount of funds earmarked to invest in software ventures to build dApps. Larimer has proven he can build product with Bitshares and Steem, this time he needs to fully implement through to mature product, or it won’t reach its potential. All up a very promising project."
Morgan steckler - Rating: 93
The team behind it is spectacular. The idea and platform is gamechanging and overall has layed a path to really maturing the industry. Very excited to see how this matures."
Matthew Nolan - Rating: 90
"Even though dPoS is not decentralized, blockchain needs widespread adoption now and fast dApps to catch on in the mainstream. Though using C might present barrier to entry for devs. I'm hopeful for EOS."
Yuchen Zhao - Rating: 93
"EOS.IO is released by Block.One, which has promising prospects in my view. Also, it will be released under open source software license. Meanwhile, if Block.One honors commitments, the $1B from them will build a wonderful ecosystem. And I think they will."
Cassi Kono - Rating: 92
"Remarks: Proven team and strong dev team/resources; expressed intent by projects and funds to solely build on EOS; prominent competitors such as ADA, ETH, and NEO will require EOS to maintain momentum; big promises for scalability to 1mil tps and fee reduction, but proof of potential to deliver is yet to be seen."
Takashi Yanagi - Rating: 90
"All-star team building a technology that address many issues found in previous blockchains. Great exchange relationships and growing fanbase globally."
Laszlo L. Mari - Rating: 30
"I have very serious doubts about the community and the legal issues that will arise after the year long ICO. The mathematics behind also aren't checked properly."
Tusshar Aggarwal - Rating: 82
"Good team. GitHub updating regularly. Hype. Centralization issue, not solving scalability still, temporary solution."
Zach Kelling - Rating: 85
"EOS has huge potential, insane amounts of money and a proven team. Questionable approach to consensus knocks them down a notch."
