Total Fundraising at Current Price would Net Almost $3BN, Already Best Funded BlockChain Technology, Largest Ever ICO.
Okay so the current token price for EOS is at this time of writing $4.50, translating to an estimated $3 BILLION of funds to be raised for EOS over the next year!
For those of you who don't know the EOS crowsale has been very cleverly conceived, it works in the following way:
EOS TOKEN DISTRIBUTION METHOD
The EOS Token distribution will take place over 341 days starting on June 26, 2017 at 13:00 UTC. 1,000,000,000 (one billion) EOS ERC-20 compatible Tokens (“EOS Tokens”) will be distributed according to the schedule below:
200,000,000 two hundred million - distributed during a 5 day period beginning on June 26, 2017 at 13:00 UTC and ending on July 1, 2017 at 12:59:59 UTC.
700,000,000 seven hundred million - split evenly into 350 consecutive 23 hour periods of 2,000,000 EOS tokens each beginning on July 1, 2017 at 13:00:00 UTC.
100,000,000 one hundred million - will be reserved for block.one and cannot be traded or transferred on the Ethereum network.
THE ICO SO FAR....
So how is it doing so far? Well the total Ether now raised is 689,000 - That's $192 Million for only 24% of the Project. This breaks down into:
First 5 day ICO offering: 200 Million tokens sold for 654,000 ETH ($185M)
First 1 day ICO offering: 2 Million tokens sold for 12,423
Second 1 day offering: 2 Million tokens selling for atleast 25,000 ETH (current ETH received 22,500)
First of all, it is clear that investors already see EOS as a potential competitor to Ethereum as it has been catapulted straight into the top 4 crypto market caps on launch - that is unheard of. Secondly, it is clear that this new crowdsale is extremely cleverly created as by not selling all the tokens at the outset, the EOS project itself will gain much of the market cap gains that initial investors would normally gain. As I mentioned at the beginning if the token price stays as it is today, EOS will raise approximately $3,000,000,000 (that's $4.5 x the remaining tokens to be sold - 696,000) Yes over $3BN in funds!
The Ethereum Foundation is currently the best funded blockchain technology with approximately $200M, EOS stands to have over 15 times the amount of funding - and that is at today's token price. The price could easily more than double over the course of the year or more, so my projection is that they will in fact raise nearer $10Bn. THIS IS INSANE - but what does this mean?
THIS FUNDING CAN CHANGE THE GAME
With these type of resources, EOS could be employing thousands of the best programmers accross the world, sinking billions into events, conferences, campaigns, sponsorship, corporate relationships, government liaison etc.
While EOS has to work fast to catch up with Ethereum, with this kind of money I am now convinced that they WILL be able to catch up and with the superior technology that I believe EOS allows, I now believe EOS will be the blockchain platform that creates the new Internet of the future.
