These transactions are recorded in \u201cblocks\u201d which are secured and linked together using cryptography.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><b>What is a distributed Ledger?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A distributed ledger is a consensus of synchronized, shared, and replicated digital data spread across multiple sites, computers, countries, and\/or institutions. These recorded \u201cblocks\u2019 are stored in a linear chain. As earlier stated in the definition, each block contains data (Eg EOS or Bitcoin transactions) which is cryptographically hashed and time stamped on the blockchain. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When a new block is added to the Blockchain, this block is linked to the previous block using the cryptographic hash. This is to ensure that the overall data is not tampered with or altered.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blockchain technology is a transparent, publicly accessible ledger that authorizes us to securely transfer ownership of funds using public key encryption and proof of work mechanism.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This technology is not centrally controlled by any board, bank institution or government because it uses a decentralized consensus algorithm to maintain the network. \u00a0And the larger the network, the more decentralized and more secure it becomes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/medium.com\/@bitrewards\/blockchain-scalability-the-issues-and-proposed-solutions-2ec2c7ac98f0\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">research<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, blockchains in the past could not take all these records on the blockchain and that led to the \u201coverloading\u201d of several blockchains, but then came EOS.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What is EOS?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">EOS.IO is a blockchain software protocol that powers the cryptocurrency called \u201c<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/coinmarketcap.com\/currencies\/eos\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">EOS<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d.

EOS blockchain solves scalability issues and has managed to eliminate blockchain clogging, eliminated the payment of fees for users etc. EOSIO run on multiple computer cores and as well as delegated proof-of-stake for its consensus protocol.

EOS token holders are allowed to cast <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bloks.io\/vote\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">votes<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and participate in the on-chain governance of the Blockchain. The primary resources used to run dapps built on the platform are Ram, Net and Cpu. Ram can be purchased with EOS and you can delegate NET or CPU to someone else or get delegation from someone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As earlier stated, it\u2019s ranked amongst the top 10 cryptocurrencies on coinmarketcap that is doing well in the market and ranked number one on <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/blocktivity.info\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">blockivity.info<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for its activities on the Blockchain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">EOS is currently trading on over <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/coinmarketcap.com\/currencies\/eos\/#markets\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10 trading\/exchange platforms<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and we just recently got it listed also on our platform because of its massive adoption around the world. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Download the CoinCola APP (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.newgo.coincola\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Android<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coincola.com\/app\/download\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">IOS<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">) to buy and sell EOS on the go.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blockchain is one of the fourth industrial revolutions &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":2123,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false},"categories":[87],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8.1 -
