🍴 Fed up and forking: rival EOS blockchains are becoming a reality

As EOS ($EOS) struggles with block producer issues and with its previous controversies, various EOS rivals have sprung up. Douglas Horn recently authored a white paper for Telos, a fork of the open-source protocol behind EOS called EOSIO. Additionally, other competitors include EOS Force, ONO, EvolutionOS, WAX, and Worbli. Telos, though, appears to be the fork with the most momentum and support. Telos' launch could come as soon as next month, with the aims to make two significant changes to the EOS that exists today: curtail the power of the largest token holders known as "whales" and launch with more solidified governance mechanisms that can be enforced directly on the blockchain.
