Is Ethereum really the best blockchain to form a DAO
Categories: Crypto News AUSTRALIA
The crypto community and industry have chosen Ethereum as the chain of choice for most blockchain-based decentralized applications (DApps), but other chains may be better suited to handle the workload for decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs).Technical advantages and cheaper transactions have yet to become a major pull factor from Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) chains. EVM compatibility enables a network to use Ethereum’s security features. Comparatively, the Solana ecosystem has only 140, Cardano has 10 DAOs, according to ecosystem tracker Cardano Cube and Polkadot Substrate says it has just eight. This is not to discount the fact that among the top 10 DAOs by the number of decisions made over the past seven days, DAO tracker DeepDAO shows that three are based on Solana.Ethereum’s leg up over the rest may be due to simple yet practical reasons, according to DAO tracker DeepDAO CEO Eyal Eithcowich in response to Cointelegraph. He attributes Ethereum’s dominance to the fact that it is “the chain where the DAO movement started.” The co-founder of the nonfungible token (NFT) game on the EOSIO-based WAX network Alien Worlds, Saro McKenna, told Cointelegraph last week that she believes EOSIO is better for building DAOs.However, CEO of blockchain consulting firm Koinos Andrew Levine had pointed criticisms of EOSIO which could explain why it falls short of Ethereum’s rate of adoption. In February, he wrote that while EOS transactions are virtually fee-less, there is an account creation fee.
