EOS could handle Kik, unlike Ethereum apparently... will Dan take the reigns?

Here's the perfect opportunity for EOS to shine, by showing Ethereum how a real smart contract platform does it, by being able to handle the mass transaction volume of the brand new Kik ICO monetization platform.

Kik, the first mainstream company to complete an initial coin offering (ICO) on ethereum, is reportedly considering whether it might migrate its token network to a new blockchain.

The social messaging platform, which raised $98 million in its token sale earlier this year, first broached the subject late last month on the Kin Foundation's Telegram tech channel. There, Kik's head of blockchain engineering and security, Leonid Beder, said the firm was interested in "kin" token buyers' views on possible alternative blockchains that could replace ethereum.

"Since we first and foremost want the Kin ecosystem to scale to many participants and huge transaction volumes sooner rather than later, we realize that ethereum might not be the right solution," Beder said at the time.
