BlockTrades (https://blocktrades.us) now supports trading pairs for buying and selling EOS with many of the coins we support, including pairs for trading EOS with SBD and Steem.
EOS is a smart contract platform and is widely viewed as the main competitor to the Ethereum smart contract platform. At the time of this post, it is ranked at #4 on coinmarketcap’s list of cryptocurrencies by market capitalization.
The official website for eos is: https://eos.io/
EOS users and reviewers also post fairly regularly on Steem: https://steemit.com/hot/eos
When it comes to adding support for new coins to BlockTrades, EOS has been one of the most requested by our customer base, probably in part due to the fact that EOS development was led by Dan Larimer, who was also the main developer for Steem and BitShares, so there’s a lot of overlap in the community of users between BitShares, Steem, and EOS.
EOS trading on our site is only supported for non-US citizens
EOS tokens were distributed through an initial coin offering (ICO) and US citizens were not eligible to participate in the ICO. For this reason, we are maintaining the same restriction on trading of EOS via our site until there is more regulatory clarity on the status of the EOS token.
In other words, to buy and sell EOS on our site, you must create an account on BlockTrades (if you don’t already have one) and you have to show evidence that you are not a US citizen. For full details on the steps to get authorized to trade EOS, please see our earlier post for the OMG token:

Finally! Thank you very much, blocktrades!
I have to provide ID to buy EOS?
Yes, we haven't come up with another way to ensure you're not a US citizen.
Wait, I only need to provide ID if I want to make transaction involving EOS, right?
Yes, we only require it for EOS and OMG.
Cool, at least I am not being denied from my usual purchases without giving my ID.

makes sense
Aw man, only non US citizen part sucks. Maybe if I ever move I can use it for that. Would love to use you guys for my EOS to STEEM trades.
land of the free? Land of the brave.
Brave enough to pretend to be non U.S. citizen and make the transaction? No, not gonna do that to blocktrades. They are awesome and can't have any chance of them going down cuz of a user who pretends to be non U.S. even though he is.
:)
so stupid, just let us trade eos...dont be a pussy, eos was never illegal in usa....
you cant prove your not american
this made me mad....get over the eos ico already
Nice! Love this.
Why can't I just use a VPN like everyone else. Just kidding I know the US thinks they own the world. Still makes me sad.
Whats the blocktrades labor(the one with the American flag) on your exchange?
It was up there by mistake from when we added the new trading pairs. Thanks for pointing it out, I've removed it now. It was a coin we used to allow people to figure out what rate we would accept when they were paying us in crypto for consulting work, but we discontinued it several years ago.
Ah thx. Happy to have helped.

Super excited to hear :)
Finally I can just get my EOS from you guys. Btw... How is the BEOS progress so far?
Posted using Partiko Android
On the technical side, BEOS is pretty much ready to go, we're just waiting for the go ahead from our contractee to launch it.
Hope Blocktrades will add USDT to the list one day

they used to have USDT over the OMNI blockchain
It's good to see you all having more trading pairs with STEEM/SBD even if us citizens of the USA are excluded, @blocktrades. I guess I'm living in a dictatorship after all. Does EOS even want to be a security? What's there to determine? I'm not really that keen on buying EOS myself, I just don't like the idea of some kind of regulatory authority over crypto. Wasn't it partly invented to free us of such tyranny? I certainly don't want you folks in trouble for following the law, so I'm not frustrated with you at all. I'm just annoyed that the governments have to have their grubby paws into everything.
I'm sure EOS doesn't want to be a security and I haven't seen any determination by the SEC itself that it is. The biggest risk factor is statements by the head of the SEC that he thinks pretty much every ICO is a security (don't quote me, I'm roughly paraphrasing at best). I personally find the ambiguity of it all very annoying as well.
Keep it in limbo indefinitely with ambiguity, I guess. About as effective as regulating it, except there's no apparent kick back (fee/tax) this way.
Will do the authentication later, I will try to purchase a small amount of eos from my steem earnings.
just use exodus to buy your eos, no need to give blocktrades your ID, no registration needed, and its one button
I have been waiting on this feature, however I still cannot take advantage thanks to being USA located.
This is a nice update that you have listed EOS in your platform. You're the favourite exchange of mine and buying EOS from you will be an amazing experience for me. Thanks for update.

Hi Team
I have an issue with my transfers from Binance to Steemit.
Why instead of received 7056.66 STEEM I got 6915.527 STEEM?
there 141 less STEEM (65 $USD less) , that is an INSANE deduction just for transferring STEEM to my Account
Please HELP on this situation.
