Inflation of EOS tokens drives the entire system - funds the Block Producers, the Worker Proposal Fund, and allows for free transactions for users. The launch of the EOS network is fast approaching and we still see a lot of questions surrounding the inflation system. We would like to clear up a few things.
I recently had the pleasure of being invited to Shanghai to take part in two major EOS events, one hosted by EOS Gravity and one hosted by EOS Cannon, Cybex, Wancloud, and JRR Crypto. I would like to take this opportunity to thank my hosts and the whole community for welcoming us and to acknowledge the incredible enthusiasm surrounding EOS in China. I had the pleasure of nurturing many new friendships, and look forward to growing these many relationships.

Thinking about the possibility of joining the Block Producer (BP) community? Wondering what a BP actually does? We’re going to try to break this down more, as we believe it’s extremely important to understand how BPs interact with EOS.IO, and how they bolster the community that we’re all building.

Alexandre Bourget, from EOS Canada, gives his opinion on what could happen upon the launch of the EOS.IO software. Will we see multiple chains? If so, what happens? Will they honour the ERC-20 token distribution? Here’s a quick preview of what you should know.

One of the first steps any business has to take before opening up shop is to run an analysis on their projected revenue and return. We at EOS Canada felt that the community would benefit from a public model that can be tailored to each person’s assumptions to help in their decision making. After all, if a Block Producer (BP) or Standby Producer (SP) can’t fund their operation, they would have to drop out of their role.
Alexandre Bourget, of EOS Canada, describes how the BIOS Boot Sequence of the EOS.IO network would be launched on June 3rd, 2018. Alexandre has spearheaded the code development for this extremely important kickoff of the mainnet.
