What is EOS Cryptocurrency? - Betting Crypto Coin Explained

Find out how it works and how to use it at Stake in this full guide.
What is EOS & How Does it Work?
EOS is a blockchain-based decentralised platform designed for hosting and running applications for Web3. The EOS token is used to power the network, with developers able to purchase network bandwidth and storage capacity using their EOS tokens. However, EOS is also usable as a digital currency and is capable of processing millions of transactions in a short space of time.
The EOS open-source blockchain platform functions like a cloud computing network, with the ability to store data in blocks, fulfil smart contracts, process information and relay it to other devices and users on the network. Web3 is a concept of a decentralised internet, one that isn’t controlled by any single company or organisation.
The creators of EOS designed the network to be able to host multiple decentralised applications (dApps), which perform a wide variety of functions. It’s also compatible with Ethereum, which is one of the most popular cryptocurrencies and shares similarities with EOS.
While the main features of EOS are the functionalities of the network and its ability to host dApps, the EOS native token is well-suited for online payments. The network is designed to process over one thousand transactions per second with extremely low fees.

How is EOS Different from other Crypto Coins on Stake?
There are lots of different cryptocurrencies available for deposits, withdrawals and betting at Stake. Whether you prefer Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, DOGE, Tether, Solana, Tron or anything else, you can choose the one that works best for you. Of course, each has its own advantages and disadvantages for crypto gambling.
Bitcoin is the most valuable cryptocurrency in the world and one of the most widely used. It’s more decentralised than EOS, as it’s not owned or controlled by any company, organisation or government. However, the main disadvantage of using Bitcoin is that its transactions are much slower and more expensive compared to EOS.
Ethereum and EOS share a lot of similarities. Both blockchain networks were designed to run dApps and provide a greater function than just being a currency. While Ethereum is very popular, the network isn’t capable of handling as many transactions as EOS. Typically, EOS payments are considerably faster and cheaper.
Litecoin and Tether offer similar transaction times and cheap transactions, although they probably don’t have the same potential as the EOS network. If Web3 takes off, EOS could be a central part of that, which is something that attracts investors. Of course, the fact that Tether is a stablecoin makes it more suitable for online payments, as the price is less likely to move in relation to the cryptocurrency market.
Why should you Bet with EOS?
Secure payments – When you make a deposit or withdrawal using EOS, you don’t need to enter your personal bank details. Simply copy and paste the wallet address to send and receive funds.
Fast transactions – The EOS network is capable of processing over 1,000 transactions per second, significantly higher than many other cryptocurrencies, including Ethereum, which processes 12 per second. This means your deposits and withdrawals are very fast.
Extra security with the vault – The Stake vault lets you secure your coins and locks them behind additional security measures such as 2-factor authentication. This way, you can deposit EOS safely and not have to worry.
Easy to purchase – It’s really easy to purchase EOS as it’s available on most popular exchanges, such as Binance. You can also buy it through MoonPay and Swapped.com using your preferred payment method.
Low fees – EOS transactions have very low fees, with an average fee of just 0.01 EOS. You can send your funds anywhere in the world and not have to worry about fees for deposits and withdrawals.
