The EOS continues to undergo a quicker surrender than its peer blockchain projects after falling another 11% in a day.
Tuesday's EOS / USD rate set an intra-day low at 2.41-fiat, down 28.27% from the weekly high at 3.36-fiat. Meanwhile, the maximum decline in EOS market capitalization this week reached $ 861 million, according to data available on CoinMarketCap.com.
The downside in the EOS market stems from uncertainties related to the blockchain that feeds the token. Investors and traders are worried about the longevity of EOS as a "decentralized" blockchain project, with new reports showing how the project has been centralized lately. For a project that has raised $ 4 billion in a round of initial coin offerings, EOS should look overvalued on many as a result of its latest advertising crisis.
EOS was among investors' favorites, especially because it was the only currency that had a better success than the rest of the April encrypted market. The currency rose by around 400%, from $ 4 to $ 20, mainly because its annual ICO was not completed. In reality, the EOS rate could have been much lower than $ 20.
