I don’t think anyone expected EOS to kill etherum before the chain has even been validated.

Any project that wants to compete with Ethereum has to do more than just provide a "faster blockchain" they'll also need to grow an ecosystem and sustain it.

From what I saw of the launch they have done a damn good job of creating an ecosystem of talented and dedicated developers. That was the whole point of making the community launch the chain themselves.

Totally respect your opinion, but I think and hope that you are very wrong about EOS
