Telos Blockchain - Crypto Academy / S4W2 - Homework post for pelon53.
Firstly, we should not forget why the blockchain was introduced, in the first place. The reason why the block was brought into existence was to give you power over your finance by removing all forms of financial third parties when doing any form of transactions. Such Third parties include the banks and other financial institutions. The tedious nature of bank was discovered and that lead to the introduction of block-chain. Ever since the Blockchain came into existence there have different updates to tackle one issue or the other.
This has lead to the development of the Telos Blockchain. The Telos is a unique blockchain, that the developers has worked tirelessly along with the community with the aim to look for the weakness of the already known blockchain’s platforms which includes the bitcoin, Ethereum EOS, and other and find the solutions to that challenge.
They Further look to make Telos different from other platforms, which allows it to be more valueable by making it very attractive for the market. Though the platform was launched in December 2018, Though it may take time for the user to get use to it and explore most opportunities that it bring to the blockchain world.
We should know that Tlos token is used in the Telos Blockchain,
I expect the Tlos token to rise more, you can see that it is ranked, #269 in all the cryptocurrencies and it has a volume of $277,576,963 price is $0.783, with all these in place it is also expected that with time it might be competing with the Likes bitcoin and Ethereum.
From also this chart of Telos to USD, we can see that Tlos that being gaining value and it is wise that with time it will still improve in it value.
- For you to use Telos Blockchain for transaction is way cheaper than the blockchains for Etherum and bitcoin
- Comparing Tlos Blockchain, it has high scalability which can be achieved with the help of Telos node in EVM
- Due to some useful features that Telos blockchain possesses many big companies are now making use of it.
