Blockchain

Everipedia announced in December 2017, that it was moving to generating edits and storing information via the EOS blockchain. Everipedia stated they were building a peer-to-peer wiki network that includes a system that employs crypto technology as an incentive for editors using tokens with real monetary value. With the implementation of the blockchain, the company intends to convert points into a token currency. The tokenized system lets every user become a stakeholder in the wiki network. All editors can use their tokens for each edit. With the acceptance of their contribution, users can receive their tokens back, which will now be more valuable compared to the content added. However, an edit that is not accepted will lead to the non refund of the token. According to Everipedia, the EOS blockchain model does not have centralized servers, eliminating server costs.
