How is POS a scam though?
The term “scam” in crypto is just an unjustified buzzword that everyone just throws around in an attempt at the end all argument without facts.
Similarly, EOS. Pretty sure the developers own a significant amount therefore can just vote for whoever block producers they want at any time.
EOS had a year long ICO where everyone had the opportunity to buy however much they wanted. Unlike others where whales buy out everything within minutes.
Was there not a cycling funds from ico being used to buy more eos, and then rinse repeat, thereby making sure those puling the strings of ico,will keep pulling the strings after?
No. The funds received from the ICO are being used to develop dApps that run on EOS. The money earned is going right back into development of EOS ecosystem.
