Key characteristics
- Native asset: EOS, used in the network economy, governance and some resource-related mechanisms.
- Antelope architecture: readable accounts, advanced permissions and contracts designed for applications that need many interactions.
- Resource model: the network uses concepts such as CPU, NET and RAM, with parameters that can evolve through governance and available tooling.
Use cases and ecosystem
- Web3 applications: games, marketplaces, on-chain services, wallets and applications requiring frequent interactions.
- Network tracking: monitoring EOS, blocks, accounts, contracts, resources, tokens and governance through explorers and crypto dashboards.
- Development: documentation, nodes, SDKs, contracts and tools from the EOS/Antelope ecosystem.
Consensus and security
EOS relies on a delegated proof-of-stake variant with elected block producers and network governance. Security depends on vote distribution, block producers, software upgrades, deployed contracts and user tooling.
Fees and performance
EOS usage cost depends on the resource model, network parameters and selected tooling. Some operations can be abstracted by applications, but real resource needs should be checked at time of use.
