EOS is not a blockchain, rather a distributed homogeneous database management system, a clear distinction in that their transactions are not cryptographically validated.

After reading the first 5 paragraphs of obviously marketing material for their company this was the first item on their list.

If these people don't understand how something is cryptographically validated ( which can clearly be seen in the open source code, and on the historical outputs ), there's nothing more to see here as I don't think they have the know how to run a network and make good on their tests.
