Title: Overview of smart contract platforms
Post by: ticterine on August 27, 2017, 03:16:21 PM
Does anyone have a good primer on the different platforms offering token/smart contract creation? Everyone knows Ethereum is the most popular and widely used platform for these services, but what about others like NEO, Waves, QTUM, etc. They're all valued very highly, but what makes them special? There are quite a few of these offerings now and a brief overview would be a great help for investors evaluating their options.

There needs to be a comparative study of all sidechain supporting currencies which would make it easier for token creators as well as investor to decide their choice.

Ethereum, Neo, Lisk, to name a few I've been through.
Tezos is something like platform within a platform.
District0x is a much complicated form of them.

Haven't heard of Xtrabytes. It's a bitcoin fork, right?

I think for most investors, you do not have much choice to evaluate the contrast platform since it is always decided by the ICO dev team. As far as I know, most investor do not care too much about the contract platform.

Ark going to have smart contracts and instant blockchain creation into one, it is much better. I think Eth is just full of bugs and that clogging/blocking issue really scare me for long term, no fix for it because how Eth is designed. Within 1 year we will going to see many game changing cryptos but don't take my word for it.
Next summer will be bloodbath battles in this altcoins scene.

- the developer would want the project to end successfully, then the token must be sold a lot or at least reach the minimum target.
- investors also want to buy tokens easily.
- we know that ethereum is popular and most likely owned by most investors.
these may be the reasons most use smartcontract ETH
