One's EOS will complete its year-long token crowdsale later today, becoming the largest initial coin offering in history having raised a total of over $4 bln.
The highly-anticipated formal release of the accompanying software, which proponents claim will constitute a decentralized operating system for large-scale decentralized applications, will also see developers prepare token migration to new EOS wallets.
The move is significant, EOS having fallen victim to mounting suspicion over its long-term efficacy as well as its token's genuine value in recent months.
If you're not reading between the lines: The EOS ERC-20 token provides zero utility and is absolutely useless.
Exchanges have suspended EOS deposits and withdrawals during the EOS mainnet token swap.
OKEx also reminded users not to deposit EOS into the exchange during the suspension, or their tokens will be irretrievable.
Bitfinex will freeze EOS deposits & withdrawals at 16:00 UTC, June 2nd. Please note that this time differs from the update released two days ago.
Trading will remain unaffected throughout the entirety of the swap.
Confusion over the token registration process led one community member to publish a guide on generating an EOS key pair and how to map to the Ethereum address containing the EOS tokens.
The EOS price has remained stable around $12 in the run-up to the release, having peaked at over $21 in late April.
