You know, it may seem like EOS doesn't do anything, because it isn't an App and it isn't strictly speaking a currency.

But what it is, is an enabler. An enabler of DApps - which can be for any purpose.

It is like IOS the platform Apple uses to enable apps on its iPhones and iPads. It is like Android.

In fact it is exactly like them with one big humungous difference: it gives all the apps built on it access to all the benefits of blockchain.
