GoChain is looking to tackle the problems Ethereum blockchain faces, and improve on them. Some of these problems are:
Transaction Fees: Transaction fees on Ethereum are unrealistic sometimes, and they are prone to fluctuations. When transaction fees are high, it becomes a problem because it deters some people from coming on board, and also chases away some users. This also affects businesses, seeing the fees involved are not steady.
With GoChain, transaction fees are greatly reduced. Infact, being Gochain based ensures that transaction fees are 7500x cheaper than what is currently obtainable on Ethereum. Seeing GoChain can handle processing 100x the amount of Ethereum, prices will not need to be raised. In that case, being GoChain based will be 15,000-30,000 times cheaper, than on Ethereum!
Energy Usage: GoChain doesn’t support mining, so it uses less energy when compared to Ethereum.
Transaction Speed: As said earlier, Ethereum can only process 13 TPS, whereas GoChain processes 1300 TPS, and can go as high as 2400 TPS. This shows that GoChain is at least, 100x faster than Ethereum blockchain.
SELECTION OF DESIGN
I tried to show the difference and also the value Gochain bring to users, cryptocurrencies and the blockchain. The best way to to that is via visual aids.
