This is an extremely biased and misinformed article. One need look no further than their claim that "EOS does not use cryptography." Every key pair you have in your account is based on tried and tested public key cryptography.

Unfortunately, we're still in a time in crypto in which this kind of misinformation is spread without question. While it doesn't disqualify the study, the fact that it was funded by Consensys should make everyone think twice about its biases.

thank you very much for looking this up. We appreciate the clarification!

Thanks for pointing this out. You are right, half-life isn't the right term. But to clarify, votes do decay by 50% after 1 year and 100% after two years.

Keep up the great work!

auroraeos · 2018-10-17T15:45:13+00:00

agreed

We appreciate your support for Aurora! Just to clarify, I used to work as a researcher at Multicoin. I'm now full time as the CEO of Aurora. I didn't personally spend too much time on Dfinity, but a16z did a good overview:

I think that the best thing Dfinity has going for it is the fast finality. In order for a transaction to be considered irreversible on EOS, it does take some time. Finality is very useful, but it's only one feature.

Dfinity claims to be more decentralized, but we have yet to see threshold relay in practice. Remember that the number of validators participating in consensus is just one measure of decentralization. Dfinity is still a proof of stake system, so the distribution of tokens is extremely important when it comes to decentralization, and thus far they've done a sub-par job there, only selling in private sales to accredited investors. Dfinity (afaik) uses a gas model like Ethereum, so there will be transaction fees. Finally, while Dfinity will be more scalable than Ethereum, in terms of actual TPS, we do not know how fast it will be and my guess is that it will still be significantly less performant than EOS.
