EOS, like Ethereum, is a blockchain platform that lets developers build applications using smart contracts. Within the platform is a cryptoasset, also called EOS, which is needed to use applications on the network. EOS was created to address some of the limitations that Ethereum currently has, specifically with the number of transactions it can handle. Where Ethereum currently handles 15 transactions per second, EOS has shown the ability to handle several thousands per second.
