Hello KobbyC ,

No, you can't because EOS is a token ERC-20 and not a coin.

Only coins are extracted, which were separated from bitcoin as a result of hard forks. EOS was released as a result of the ICO on the ethereum platform, is a token and therefore can not be obtained. The EOS tokens are released in a limited number and this process is final.

Mining seems to be a thing of the past with a lot of these tokens..   People are falling in love with proof of stake, proof of deligated stake, SR elections.. etc.. A lot of people view mining as a waste of power and want faster transaction times, so decentralization is slowly dying.  I hope this won't be a big mistake a few years from now.
