EOS is a decentralized blockchain platform built on the EOSIO software framework, designed to support the creation of scalable and efficient decentralized applications (dApps). Operating on a delegated proof-of-stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism, EOS allows users to stake tokens for voting rights and participate in network governance decisions. With features like free transactions for users and resource allocation for developers, EOS aims to provide a user-friendly environment for building and running dApps on the blockchain.
