To be honest, EOS is a great network. The speed is great. If the developers continue to act in the same rhythm, then EOS will be successful. Yes, EOS is a worthy competitor to Ethereum with its huge fees. But this is only in perspective. Ethereum is megapopular now and is growing every day.
I have experienced with EOS before because I participated before in an EOS-based campaign. And I was in awe that there is no transfer fee from that site to the exchange. And between exchanges, you will only pay very minimal fee, and the speed is really fast as compared to other networks. So yes, if the EOS developers will manage to promote this network as much as they can, and attract projects that will be based on them, they have a good chance to grow in the market. I hope other projects will noticed their features and take it as their advantage. But of course, they are still very far from eth popularity.
