Decentralized applications can be built on any blockchain that is fast and feature-rich enough to support them, and Ethereum is one of these blockchains.

But there are some major stumbling blocks to wider adoption such as gas prices, miners and scaling issues.

On genEOS, fees are set by smart contract owners — users themselves. Whether they’re fixed-cost, percentage or eve free, they’re transparent and simple. 

The genEOS blockchain is definitely capable of several hundreds of transactions per second, and has the theoretical potential to reach up to 1.5 million per second. That’s fast enough to run real-time responsive business applications that can compete with the web 2.0 user experience without losing the unique advantages of a distributed, self-recording and immutable ledger.
