The recent traffic jam on EOS caused by EIDOS has shed some new lights on the TPS issue of public chains.
EIDOS released an airdrop. By sending a certain amount of EOS to the EIDOS contract, you can receive the same amount of EOS plus a certain amount of EIDOS. An influx of transactions (around 9 million transactions in 24 hours) have led to a shortage of CPU resources. A lot of other users and Dapps have failed to use the EOS network.
In attempts to improve TPS, we have tried parallel transactions, new consensus, or adjusting parameters. However, sometimes we overlooked the fact that some economic/ecosystem models might limit the increase of TPS. Also, a more and more complicated ecosystem will raise the threshold for average users. For example, compared to Ethereum, EOS has a higher threshold for average users.
About SimpleChain
The mission of SimpleChain is to simplify the blockchain for business.
SimpleChain is a PoW main chain with flexible sub-chains. Different sub-chains can adopt different kinds of consensus and block data structure as needed, to enable a variety of applications and use cases on blockchain. Sharding is also implemented to improve performance. This double-layered structure of one main chain and multiple sub-chains can fuel various applications while ensuring the consistency of the network.
Built on VeraxChain, SimpleChain’s first sub-chain, Baoquan.com provides record keeping services which serves to keep records of online data and authenticate electronic evidence. In June 2018, Hangzhou Internet Court of China judged a case of copyright dispute based on data stored on Baoquan.com. For the first time in China, the legal effect of the electronic data stored on blockchain is recognized in the judicial system.
