One of my favorite up-and-coming cryptocurrencies is EOS.IO.

I believe it has the potential to become the next Microsoft. Sure, it is easy to make such claims on the very platform (Steemit) that was created by same founder who is making EOS, Dan Larimer.

Assembled here are some of the latest developments for the EOS team. Here are the updates:

Dawn 3.0 Announced

The 3rd release of EOS.IO was announced by block.one on January 25th.

Major changes in Dawn 3.0 include changing “eos” to “eosio” in all locations throughout the code. The current public TestNet at “https://testnet1.eos.io” will continue to run the Dawn 2.x software until the release of the Dawn 3.0 Testnet, and will then be retired.
