Program
Details
and
Objectives

Yves
La
Rose,
the
Executive
Director
and
Founder
of
the
EOS
Network
Foundation,
is
at
the
helm
of
this
significant
project.
The
program
aims
to
enhance
the
value
proposition
of
the
EOS
network
by
encouraging
more
users
to
stake
their
EOS
tokens,
thereby
increasing
network
security
and
stability.

La
Rose
has
been
a
pivotal
figure
in
the
EOS
community,
known
for
his
consensus-building
efforts
and
dedication
to
the
network’s
success.
His
background
in
technology
and
experience
in
the
blockchain
space
positions
him
uniquely
to
lead
this
initiative.

Yves
La
Rose’s
Journey

Yves
La
Rose’s
journey
into
the
world
of
technology
began
at
a
young
age,
building
his
first
computer
and
writing
his
first
program
at
just
seven
years
old.
After
completing
his
studies
in
psychology
at
the
University
of
Ottawa,
he
moved
to
Japan,
where
he
spent
six
years
immersed
in
Japanese
culture
and
language.
During
this
period,
he
developed
a
keen
interest
in
Bitcoin
and
decentralized
networks,
beginning
his
Bitcoin
mining
endeavors
in
2010.

Upon
returning
to
Ottawa
in
2011,
La
Rose
resumed
his
education,
focusing
on
perceptual
and
computational
neuropsychology
and
behavioral
economics.
By
2017,
he
had
amassed
significant
experience
in
business
planning
and
analysis,
leading
him
to
co-found
EOS
Nation
in
2018.
Under
his
leadership,
EOS
Nation
became
the
top-rated
block
producer
on
the
EOS
Mainnet.

Challenges
and
Leadership

Despite
the
promising
technology
behind
EOSIO,
the
network
faced
challenges,
including
ambiguous
leadership
and
misallocation
of
resources.
Recognizing
the
need
for
a
cohesive
and
dedicated
foundation,
La
Rose
resigned
from
EOS
Nation
in
May
2021
and
subsequently
founded
the
EOS
Network
Foundation.

Since
its
inception,
the
ENF
has
focused
on
unifying
the
global
EOS
community
and
fostering
mutual
respect
among
its
stakeholders.
Drawing
from
his
experiences
in
Eastern
thought
and
traditions,
La
Rose
has
cultivated
a
team
dedicated
to
serving
the
EOS
community
and
empowering
its
members.

Future
Prospects

The
launch
of
the
250
million
EOS
staking
program
marks
a
significant
milestone
for
the
EOS
Network.
By
providing
substantial
incentives
for
staking,
the
ENF
aims
to
drive
greater
engagement
and
long-term
commitment
from
its
community
members.
This
initiative
is
expected
to
enhance
the
overall
health
and
sustainability
of
the
EOS
ecosystem.

The
EOS
Network
Foundation
continues
to
work
towards
realizing
the
full
potential
of
the
EOS
blockchain,
ensuring
that
it
remains
at
the
forefront
of
public
blockchain
development.
