BLOCK PRODUCER SERVICES
Our core responsibility to our community, clients and partners is to help govern, technically manage and provide effective services across all of our supported blockchain networks.
EOSphere has the expertise to effectively provide services to support thousands of commercial scale dApps which requires not only an agile enterprise scale infrastructure solution, but a mature operational structure to monitor, maintain and manage that infrastructure.
Professional integrity, transparency, commitment, cooperation and independence are all characteristics that our communities, clients and partners can expect from EOSphere.
We believe our proven experience and track record will inspire confidence in stakeholders, dApp developers and blockchain businesses. Although based in Australia we aim to serve the entire EOSphere!
GOVERNANCE, VALUES & COMMUNITY
Token holders delegate blockchain governance to Block Producers, Guilds and Vaildators
The EOSphere team has experience in assessing difficult subjective decisions that decide the direction of a blockchain through our involvement in multiple blockchain networks.
EOSphere will vote on all issues and intend to be ‘dApp developer and enterprise business friendly’. Meaning for example, where an edge-case bug results in trapped funds or errant behaviour that affects the dApps end-users, we will likely provide support using the various mechanisms available to update defective applications and ensure continuity.

WHAT IS THIS CHAIN ABOUT?
The young granddaddy of them all, this is what started it all off and the chain we got involved in at the beginning of 2018.
EOS operates on the Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) methodology which means the custodians of the chain — in this case the Block Producers (BP’s) — are voted in by EOS token holders and the top 21 ranked BP’s are responsible for signing blocks. BP’s are paid by 1% inflation on the network.
EOS utilises the Antelope Web3 open framework making the network extremely fast, secure and user friendly. These features make EOS the defacto 3rd Gen Web3 blockchain that will enable the promises of how blockchain technology will benefit humanity to become a reality.
WHY ARE WE A PART OF IT?
We are extremely passionate about EOS and believe this historical blockchain will evolve into the transcendent Web3 platform we know it can be. We were one of the founding BP’s at launch in June 2018 and produced the first independent voting portal very soon after. We’ve fully supported the whole EOS-Mainnet community by organising meetups in our native Australia, attending hackathons and BP Summits and supporting key initiatives.

WHAT IS THIS CHAIN ABOUT?
The Worldwide Asset eXchange™ (WAX) is a purpose-built blockchain and protocol token designed to make e-commerce transactions faster, easier, and safer for all participants. The WAX Blockchain mainnet uses Antelope software and as such Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) as its consensus mechanism. The custom features and incentive mechanisms such as voting, staking and a Worker Proposal System (WPS) developed by WAX are designed to optimize the blockchain’s usability in e-commerce, and encourage voting on guilds and proposals.
WAX is creating a suite of blockchain-based tools upon which dApps, marketplaces, and native non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are built. These tools include services to support e-commerce operations such as an interactive block explorer, wallet, SSO and OAUTH, item creation, an RNG service, interactive item viewers, marketplace creation, and more.
WHY ARE WE A PART OF IT?
EOSphere supports real world adoption of blockchain technology, WAX brings an existing and successful business to the blockchain ecosystem and have chosen the Antelope Web3 framework as their technology of choice as it meets their performance, usability and scalability requirements. We believe WAX moving to blockchain technology and Antelope is a massive endorsement of the software and what EOSphere have set out to support.
We believe that trading of digital assets is one of the strongest use cases for blockchain and see what WAX are doing as an excellent enabler to reduce friction for new everyday mainstream users.

WHAT IS THIS CHAIN ABOUT?
The Telos Blockchain was developed to address a number of challenges experienced on the EOS-Mainnet. A team of highly experienced members of the Blockchain community designed the Telos platform using Antelope Web3 software with a specific focus on decentralisation, sustainability and governance.
WHY ARE WE A PART OF IT?
EOSphere decided to join up with Telos just prior to their launch in 2018 after discussions with the Telos Launch Group. We were honoured to be invited to perform independent verification of the genesis snapshot. This is a crucial stage of any blockchain launch and we were more than happy to oblige.
The Telos Foundation is committed to providing a robust ecosystem and a high-performing, scalable blockchain along with good governance. We agree with the Telos principles and see the network as a perfect fit for our values.

WHAT IS THIS CHAIN ABOUT?
Libre is a programmable BTC and Tether Sidechain. Bitcoin and Tether are the foundations of a new digital financial system. But they are hard to use for the average person. Today’s users demand simple usernames, simple user interfaces and simple app connectivity. Libre tackles that challenge and makes Bitcoin accessible to everybody, everywhere.
WHY ARE WE A PART OF IT?
The Libre Chain is aligned with the EOSphere mantra of enabling mainstream adoption of blockchain technology. Libre is easy to use, it has a fair distribution and prides itself on freedom to transact, trade, build, earn and self-govern. The etymology of the name Libre comes from the latin liber meaning “free, unrestricted.” and that is certainly something that EOSphere can support.

WHAT IS THIS CHAIN ABOUT?
The Foundation for Interwallet Operability is an industry consortium, consisting of leading wallets, exchanges, crypto payment processors, and various other entities and community members dedicated to the pursuit of blockchain usability through the FIO Protocol. The FIO Protocol’s goal is to make crypto products easier, so anyone can use them.
Usability has long plagued the blockchain and cryptocurrency industry. Anyone who has attempted to utilise these technologies for any user-facing application has hit a seemingly insurmountable wall of difficult User Experience. FIO aims to fix the root of many of these issues in particular the punishing irreversibly of making any mistake. Sent tokens to the wrong public address? Your funds are likely gone forever. Accidentally sent the wrong amount? There’s no refund system inherent to blockchain protocols.
The situation can be so bad that it is assumed that a new user will make a mistake, so every blockchain company has to have complicated on-boarding processes to warn users of all the potential pitfalls.
WHY ARE WE A PART OF IT?
The success of any blockchain is gauged by the number of users receiving value through utilising the offered services and applications. Without a positive user experience, even with solid technology, end users will not be able to be on-boarded and left to explore the value of the platform. FIO is built to overcome this and enable mainstream adoption of blockchain technology. This is key to EOSphere’s mantra and we are very happy to be involved.
