EOS Features
A Blockchain Scaling Layer Built for Mass Adoption
There are a number of barriers hindering adoption of Web3 applications. EOS aims to solve this by offering a holistic suite of features that focus on improving the performance & user experience of blockchain technology.
17,000+ TPS
The unique architecture of EOS allow’s for extremely high throughput, ensuring that growth isn’t limited as demand for you application increases.
EVM Compatible
Bring your Ethereum-based projects to EOS. The EOS EVM is an emulation of Ethereum, built on EOS. It offers feature parity with other EVM environments.
1.5s Finality
While many blockchains rely on a less reliable statistical finality, EOS achieves true finality in 1.5s due to the innovative Savanna consensus algorithm.
Micro-Fees
EOS manages resources in a way that keeps transaction costs negligible. Perfect for use-cases involving low value micro-transactions, like GameFi.
Environmentally Sustainable Design
The infrastructure running EOS has an extremely low carbon footprint. The little carbon that is produced gets offset on an annual basis.
Built-In Blockchain Abstraction
EOS offers unique tools that allow developers to abstract the blockchain elements away from the end-user, creating a Web2 experience with Web3 features.
Inter-Blockchain Communication
Applications can achieve near-limitless horizontal scaling through trustless sidechains, powered by Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC).
Fund Recovery Tooling
Scams and hacks are a major problem in Web3, hindering the user experience. EOS has implemented unique tooling to mitigate these issues.
Three Powerful Tech Stacks on One Network
The EOS Network is so performant that it is home to not just one, but three critical blockchain ecosystems. While EOS Native offers developers the most unique suite of features, there are additional ecosystems designed to cater to the needs of both Ethereum and Bitcoin communities.
EOS Native
The base layer that everything runs on top of. It offers the most robust set of features and performance enhancements.
EOS EVM
An emulation of Ethereum, housed in an EOS Native smart contract. This allows EVM-based projects to take advantage of EOS.
exSat Network
A docking layer built to scale Bitcoin L2s. This powerful infrastructure connects EOS to the Bitcoin ecosystem.
How Savanna Consensus Enables True Finality in 1.5s
Savanna is the innovative consensus algorithm that secures the EOS Network and allows it achieve true transaction finality in 1.5s seconds. Listen to the EOS Network Foundation’s Director of Engineering, Areg Hayrapetian, explain the power of Savanna in the video below.
Powered by RAM
RAM is one of three resources that users & developers can leverage to interface with the EOS network. A truly finite real world asset, it represents the physical hardware that node operators are running to host EOS. WRAM is a wrapped version of RAM which can be acquired through exchanges and DeFi protocols.
EOS EVM v2.0
Continuing to improve upon the EOS EVM ecosystem, bringing performance enhancements and additional features.
Gas Redistribution Incentives
Improving the Gas Fee algorithm for the EOS EVM and incentivizing developers to bring their projects to EOS.
Turnkey Node Configuration
Making it as easy as possible for new node operators to get up and running on the EOS mainnet.
Savanna Consensus
A new consensus algorithm that brings improved transaction finality and a seamless user experience for Inter-Blockchain Communication.
A Competitive Development Roadmap
The EOS core developers are constantly iterating the EOS tech stack to ensure that the ecosystem remains at the cutting edge of Web3 innovation. Check out some of the upcoming milestones on the engineering roadmap.
