Everything You Need to Know About the First Wave of EOS Airdrops
EOS has become a powerhouse in the crypto space. One of the most promising things about it is the airdrops. Unlike Ethereum, many EOS projects are choosing to collect zero funds up front. Instead, they simply drop their token to the EOS community, while dropping themselves tokens to fund their project. The EOS markets then decide the value of the token based on demand, The team then sells some of its tokens to raise money. Since it’s easy and practically free to start a project on EOS, new players are popping up every day.

Total Supply: TBA
Airdrop details: TBA
Hacked Analysis: No Telegram, which is weird. They also haven’t updated their EOS countdown clock for a couple months. Team looks good. They have a few strong partnerships. The founders of Etheos also founded Bitgate, a new payment gateway app with the following partnerships.
EOX
EOX is a decentralized e-commerce platform that allows all EOS based tokens to be spent. EOX’s goal is to facilitate a global commerce system that allows all goods and services to be transacted in cryptocurrency without relying on fiat money. On EOX, social media influencers on all the major sites can create their own e-commerce page filled with their custom products. When they make a sale they can program the smart contract to automatically pay-out to whoever. You can also protect your data while on the platform, only releasing it to businesses/advertisers who pay you in EOX.

Airdrop: 1:1 Ratio (1 EOX per 1 EOS)

Hacked Analysis: Though the 10 b illiontotal supply is a lot, this looks like one of the stronger projects in the bunch. There is a major need for a crypto that enables fee-less micro-transactions.

Most of the team worked previously at Ruby on Rails, an open sourced web-application framework that includes everything needed to create database-backed web applications according to the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern.
