Topic: EOS - SCAM OR NOT? BUY OR NOT? - page 5. (Read 1604 times)

I think EOS is one of the projects that has potential to be really useful.

I would say wait for them to launch their own chain before going all in. Just invest a small amount now if you are feeling FOMO. Otherwise I would wait for their chain to become functional before diving in. As, if anything goes wrong then it wouldn't take much for the price to drop fast and heavily.

I dont think EOS is a SCAM.. their team seems good.

well i don't think its a good time to buy right now .. there is hype about this project and there is also some negative press about it and if you think logically they have raised tons of money without a working product as of yet and it's been a year since there ICO!! Lets see what happens in June ..

This is the best crypto project in the last few years. And now no matter how much it costs the price for it will grow tens of times. Recently, I found EOS Gold in my purse, but it turned out to be a scam)

Maybe it's about the threat to ETH itself. Maybe that is why EOS is attacked?

EOS, for now, occupy the top ten coins in the coin rate. funny if say this is a scam. It seems to me quite the start investing on the EOS is the right choice for the long term. These coins still have great opportunities to raise the price to be higher.

I dont think it is a scam project. It would have never ended up in the Top 20 if that would have been the case.

EOS deve team is planning on releasing the hard fork and some major upgrades soon and what you seeing in the current market is nothing but the hype for the same. This is just the start of this coin to grow bigger and time will tell how far it can go.

We know very well coins which were once called the scam one are ruling the world today. So better watch and differentiate between the scam and legit projects. EOS is something good.

As long as EOS is yet to bring something of value on board, i will still be on the sideline as far ad EOS  is concern. EOS has no singke service or tech thst can compete witg ethereum yet EOS is been hyped to be better!

EOS is the next Ethereum. it solves the scalability issues under Ethereum network. If ETH will not upgrade or find a way to hasten their network slowdown then there is a higher chance that EOS will overtake ethereum in the near future.

EOS ICO is about to end. and when that happens EOS price will shoot up.

EOS is known as ETHEREUM KILLER

This is a quote:
"1. there is no EOS platform as of yet, we are talking about a fork of BitShares. again: there is no functional platform whatsoever as of yet.  In other words: a mere promise is being sold

2. 1 year long ICO to collect a significant percentage of the entire ETH supply. Nobody would ever need this much money to create the platform. Astronomically more money is being raised than would ever be required. First day (of 350 more days) only: $181,295,950 (ico address here, also note the ETH that has already been moved out)

3. creates a fake sense that EOS is a true competitor to Ethereum, but in reality EOS as of now is a simle token run on the Ethereum platform

4. uses ETH raised in the ICO to generate fake price and fake demand on exchanges

The price in only hype thing, EOS team use ETH from crowdsale to hype market, they send 20000ETH to Bitfinex and 2000 ETH to Kraken to do hype, for yunbi.com, lixiaolai is an investor/co-owner and he is member of EOS team too, so the hype in yunbi is crazy.

In summary,nothing much, just hype with the money from investors, not sure whether this is legal or not."

Maybe it's about the threat to ETH itself. Maybe that is why EOS is attacked?

5. let people buy in, milk the crowd who doesn't know better!

There's probably grains of truth here and there. People's bias really allows justifying just about anything. All we can go on is the here and now, look at what companies are supporting EOS, what dapps are being built, if things are progressing and how the team handles questions. In that regard, I think Dan and the developers have done an outstanding job.

After the end of the ICO, it may be too late. Many desire by the time they are properly saved. Better go ahead.

It must be understood that any good project can become a scam at any moment. Do not think about it. You have to think about whether you can make money on it or not. Some people still think that Bitcoin and Ethereum it is scam.

scam as to what you mean, eos has entered various exchanges. I see eos have considerable value and this might be potentially a strong contender for altcoin on its top.

So when EOS releases their open source software in June ... will there be a bunch of competing EOS blockchains?

I think so too but where this attack on the project comes from. Where does such information come from? It is the currency that places first place in the Top Ethereum Tokens Activity ranking.

I don't think it's scam. Some people are just trying to create FUD around it. But the project has been shilled almost by all ICO reviewers so I don't really see why it should go down.

I bought some EOS coins. The project is based on asynchronous smart contracts that can run in parallel, which allows you to achieve a performance of more than 100,000 transactions per second. As well as Bancor - a much more powerful platform than the etherium.

I have not read one such article. Even the thread was here. Where did the attack on this project come from?

Would you buy it?
