Waves Cryptocurrency

Blockchain & Bitcoin will change your life. Even if you do not want it to, your life will change.

But there is a long way to go as the technology is still in its infancy. It has to break the adaptation barriers down for the masses. There are many areas of friction to be addressed in order to make this technology feasible for mainstream adoption.

Almost every day, a new ICO or a new startup comes up with a vision. Getting funding is the most daunting challenge for them to survive in the market.Buying and selling crypto-assets is still not easy in many countries, as they do not have ready access to Euros, US Dollars, or Chinese Yuan.Trading of many immovable yet precious commodities is not possible without a cumbersome authentication process.

The process of listing shares of a company, in many countries, is highly complicated or unclear.

What if all this were to change for the better ?!

That would make life easier for all of us!

To remove all this friction and to make the world a better place, a blockchain platform called Waves is now out.

Waves advocates itself as a blockchain platform which intends to be a decentralized place for crowdfunding and trading by tokenization.

It is too technical!!!

But before I give you a less technical definition, I should tell you that Waves prices are soaring high!Its price in June 2016 was $ 0.7 per unit, and it is now above $6.88 per unit.This increment of +700% is hard to ignore
Waves are the name of the both, a proof of stake blockchain and the cryptocurrency that fuels that blockchain.

Waves enable you to make custom tokens, which means you canlaunch your own cryptocurrencies.You can also decentralize trading and crowdfunding, as it has integrated fiat currency gateways like USD/EUR/CNY right in your wallet.

Via Waves, you can also launch ICOs to fund your projects from around the world in a matter of minutes, without going through intensive cryptocurrency coding. This will make life easier for startups and open up a new era of community-backed projects.

The Waves cryptocurrency (WAVES) has real-world tradable value on various exchanges.

*Key Features of Waves Cryptocurrency


How ironic it is to keep decentralized assets such as BTC/ETH on centralized exchanges. Hacks like MtGox and Bitfinex are an example of this level of stupidity.

Wouldn’t it make sense to keep and exchange decentralized assets on decentralized exchanges?

WavesDex is a decentralized exchanged built on the Waves blockchain. It allows users to trade their BTC/ETH/etc. in exchange for Waves (or any other asset token issued on the Waves platform). And it has fiat gateways like EUR, USD etc for the fiat currency lovers.

The volume at the time of writing on this exchange is 182 BTC which I think is decent for a decentralized exchange with 72 cryptocurrencies/crypto assets listed on it.


You can use WavesDex by installing the Lite client also.

– Smart Contracts

In Waves, smart contracts are not as complex as they are in Ethereum. They are Non-Turing complete, but powerful and secure. According to the most recent development roadmap, published by The Waves Platform, Smart Contracts (non-Turing) are scheduled to be added to Full Node software builds during Q1, 2018 and Turing complete smart contracts are scheduled during Q4, 2018.

– Tokenization

You can make your own custom tokens or cryptocurrencies in one minute on the Waves platform. You will require at least 1 WAVES token to do so.

You can decide what name to give the token, how many to be issued, and how many decimal fractions you want to keep.

This is ideal for crowdfunding and ICOs.

– Fiat Gateways

Fiat Gateways such as USD/EUR/CNY will allow you to exchange any token issued on the Waves platform (or any other cryptocurrency like BTC/ETH) for “real” money, which can be deposited in a bank.


 Best of both worlds

All transactions between cryptocurrency to fiat or fiat to cryptocurrency will be recorded on the Waves blockchain. This is like mixing the best of both worlds (i.e. centralized systems and decentralized systems).

– KYC/AML

KYC/AML is needed to deposit and withdraw fiat money. However, KYC is not necessary for cryptocurrency transactions. 
Waves also started an initiative called ICOHub, where their community votes on the popular projects that are seeking to begin their ICOs. In this way, the winner of the competition gets help from Waves platform directly in hosting and conducting their ICO.

Nice article, I was a big fan of waves they had a really great start then things started to get really slow but it seems there is a lot of new features and improvements added now and I see they are making a really great improvement and starting to catch up. 

I think it is time to log again in my waves account and check how things are going now.

@ bountyman555, sorry if I have to comment on your writing. This is an English language forum, so you must use English to comment. It's better, next time pay attention to your comments on the forum.

I like Waves platform. It has been here for a while now and it keeps getting better. I still think it's unvervalued, it should be atleast $50.

Waves are described by a wave equation which sets out how the disturbance proceeds over time. The mathematical form of this equation varies depending on the type of wave. Further, the behavior of particles in quantum mechanics are described by waves. In addition, gravitational waves also travel through space, which are a result of a vibration or movement in gravitational fields.

Thanks for the article, really informative... looks like for sure Waves will be able to survive this bear market and continue onward and upward in 2020!

I think that Waves has every chance to take its unworthy place in the cryptography market, I think that this coin is not yet fully open, I personally believe in the success of this coin and keep it in my portfolio.

Waves project is one of the best worthy project of crypto world.
Waves is a coin and an ecosystem with a well designed and fast decentralized (**DEX**) Exchange.
I consider this asset undervalued for all useful specifications.

As the crypto space faces serious regulatory challenges, Tokenomica’s Smart Assets are set to play an increasingly major role. In crypto trading, they could be used to restrict outgoing transactions, thereby ensuring compliance with regulations. Similarly, in Security Token Offerings (STOs), Smart Assets enable issuers to design fully compliant assets with attractive features for investors: https://blog.wavesplatform.com/solving-challenges-with-smart-assets-aee3ab6e1f39

Waves is most of the project  better than the altcoin form.man or women use it. Causes of waves translated some coin is very still and developed or easily.

In physics, a wave is a disturbance that transfers energy through matter or space, with little or no associated mass transport (Mass transfer). Waves consist of oscillations or vibrations of a physical medium or a field, around relatively fixed locations. From the perspective of mathematics, waves, as functions of time and space, are a class of signals.
