Can anyone please explain the difference between ethereum vs waves and Omni. Marketcap wise there is no comparison but other than that what are the difference. How is ethereum better than there two other platforms and others that are in the market.

Also is waves second in this market or some other coin. Omni seems similar with tether maidsafe and synereo using it it but don't know why it is so undervalued.

Some clearification would be appreciated.

Ethereum is a smart contract platform which allows other project to run on it, waves is a gateway for investors who wants to enter the crypto space I can't rely say much on Omni.

Omni (omnilayer.org, reddit.com/r/omni) is a meta-asset layer and smart-contract platform that runs on top of the Bitcoin blockchain.  It’s been around since 2013 (originally called Mastercoin).  It was the platform for the world’s first two decentralized crowdsales (Mastercoin and Maidsafe), the first decentralized exchange, and the first managed-asset issuance platform.  It provides asset issuers a way to create tokens (both in fixed quantity and variable/managed quantity, a la Tether) which can be held in a normal Bitcoin address, and provides automated decentralized crowd sale and exchange functionality.  Up and coming features are address tagging (precursor to decentralized identity) and something we call “uniquely identifiable tokens."

You can think of Omni as an extension to Bitcoin, providing a logic layer on top without requiring Bitcoin consensus changes.  It adds functionality to Bitcoin.

i go with ark or lisk  ;D

Ethereum is for smart contracts, and so lots of projects built on it.  Waves is like a token tsunami machine, where people can issue tokens for whatever reason they want. I think the idea is to connect all the waves tokens on the waves platform in a decentralized exchange.  Of course, fiat gateways are the big issue with that kind of thing.  Omi, well the omni guy already responded, and I'm still not sure exactly the mechanism of that thing, but the main purpose so far seems to be the pegged currency tether ($1 = 1 tether). So some exchanges which can't have USD markets for legal reasons use tether instead.  I think it gets fees from tether transactions or something.

So BTC store in blockchaine only transactions...
ETH - transactions & contracts...
Waves - transactions & assets transactions & contracts transactions (future) & exchange transactions ???
The blockchaine soon will be biger than on BTC ..

This. The DEX orders are nearly instant and support AnyToken VS AnyToken.
They plan to build smart contract on the platform.
Also they LPoS consensus will soon activate. It mean that you can lease your tokens for minting (= you don't have to leave your wallet open, and all your tokens stay on your wallet while minting).

Hi,

does anyone know if there is an extension for the ethereum blockchain, similar to Omni Layer? Or if one is being developed?
