Launch of EOSIO
Since yesterday, voting for electing first 21 Block Producers of EOS is going on. A minimum 15% of the tokens need to participate in voting in order to validate the EOS blockchain and get it activated. No. of votes is constantly increasing and has already reached about 1.5% of the total 15% required. It shouldn’t be long before the 15% mark is reached.
So after a wait of about a year, EOS Mainnet is finally ready for the launch. The Blockchain that made history by raising $4 billion in its ICO and is currently worth about 12 billion dollars even when Bitcoin is being dumped below $7000, has finally started to breath. But I always wonder what do EOS stands for?
What does EOS stand for?
If EOS were written is small letters, it won’t bother me much as Eos in Greek and Roman mythology stand for the personification of dawn. It gives a perfect meaning as EOS is infusing a new era in blockchain technology. But when it’s all capital letters, it looks like it's some acronym or at least some abbreviated form of something. What it could be?
There is no official statement from EOS describing its full form or defining the meaning of its name. I don’t know what its founder had in his mind while coining this name. But I believe that such an important brand name wasn't chosen at random. A great name helps in writing the ultimate destiny of the organization whereas a poorly given name may even mean a disaster for it.
Let's be a little creative
So what do you think the letters EOS can stand for? It could have been anything like:
Economy of Scales
End of Steem
Eternal Operating System
End of Show
Envious of Steem
End of Story
Experience Obtained from Steem
End of Season
Evergreen Online Support
Era of Staking
But none of these sound inspiring to me. Can you think of a good expansion for EOS?
Comment with the best expansion for EOS you can think of. Do also write a few sentences explaining how that defines or represents EOS, its vision and its business better.
Let's find the missing words in EOS and complete what's not presented to us with this name. I'll be instituting a bounty of 1 SBD to reward the most fitting, innovative and explanatory comment with the help of .
Looking forward to your super-creative responses 😊

Please note, this is just a fun activity and there is nothing official about it. No offence meant to anyone.
