It is of some interest to some people. People buy it and people sell it. It obviously doesnt have the same profile as Eth

Why does not it if it provides all the same functions?

Waves is popular in my country Indonesia because tradeable in biggest exchange here, Waves actually has massive potential only need some more features and promote the benefits of waves sustainable because there are many competitor in the market.

Waves has very good fundamentals and I agree that it is heavily undervalued at the moment. I think that their marketing has failed big time when compering with some other projects. It seems that hype is making a big part of market evaluation and Waves just doesn't get any. Furthermore, they don't have a charismatic figure like Vitalik for ETH.

Nevertheless, as I already said I like their fundamentals and will probably invest more in the project. They should be good long term investment but don't count on quick profit.

I'm not talking about profits, but about convenience and the idea of decentralization!

That there is only the approach to mining. POW is an outdated approach. Is it reasonable to burn so much power for nothing. In Waves this LPOS is a much more reasonable approach from which side do not look.

In one recent interview, Alexander Ivanov (founder of the Wave platform) said that in the future the cost of one Waves coin would be 1000$.
Prior to that, he also foresaw a price of 5$ for the waves and 17$.

there are quite a number of altcoins which are so much better than Ethereum, specially when it comes to creating smart contracts (ICOs). but the problem is that since people don't know their names and since these coins like Waves are not hyped up as much, the ICO makers don't go to them for creating their tokens!
otherwise you are  correct, Waves and a couple of others have a lot of potential. they may not be the best and may even have flaws of their own but we won't know them until they are used more.

I agree with you, it is undervalued but ethereum is much more accepted and used than waves. People choose ethereum over waves due to the smart contracts.

Waves are good and fast transaction platform but peoples are trusted in Ethereum technology this also faster response. This is digital world day by day new best technology are entering into the crypto platform but all are invest in Bitcoin and some other top altcoins so Ethereum is the best for current scenario.

Sure about POW is wasting a lot of energy just to secure the network. But at least i still understand about POW is only the true decentralized system. But it takes so many efforts to keep the network still running. But what was LPOW? i don't even hear about that. The majority of altcoins which used POW will migrate to the hybrid system. If waves with its LPOW and ethereum with its Casper Pos.

It is a matter of influence sometimes and not the performance. But it so happen that eth Wallet is also performing good aside from being influential.

Yeah lots of fast altcoin and maybe why they choose the ETH, perhaps because more popular, also affects smart contracts. Maybe this is all just waiting for the turn to rising

Maybe it's all about marketing? Do you think that the current course of ETH is justified?

Well obviously for one thing, eth is more popular and has a higher value. It's been around longer too.

But on the other hand, a lot of people think eth will replace bitcoin as the number one coin. So, I'm saying that Waves might catch up to ETH after all, might take some years though.

I was wondering of this too. Waves has so low value even with its advantages and few ICO are basing their tokens in waves. I hope waves will shine any moment.

waves is something completely different than eth. you need to recognize difference between smart contracts platform and mostly payment currency. Waves would be an alternative to bitcoin

ethereum is still a favorite of ico and everyone's attention just focus on it and other ico. waves much better than ethereum, maybe now is not the right time for waves, but look at one day waves definitely prove it.

We really should not deny the quality of Waves and its speed in transactions, but the interesting thing is that the staff and everyone involved in Waves invest heavily in marketing and unfortunately they can not quite get the expected audience, what's missing? Need to do plus and speak less, what the bonuses and greater benefits for who is an investor? Without simple strategies like this, it's just going to be a normal currency. This is my critical view.

Waves needs more heavy-weight projects and partners to use their platform. A fancy platform without other projects support won't go far or last long.

altcoin is currently I am still confused whether the potential is high or even the opposite and that I feel there is no good movement on the altcoin.

I think a lot of people do not know how waves are good. This coin is very good, some people say that it will achieve success this year, but i more and more doubt in this. It is weirght, people will invest in shitcoins instead in good coins like this

The platform is still not completely finished, it functions by 50 percent, so the price of their coin is as follows. As soon as all the work on the platform is completed, the situation will change immediately.

I think Waves (https://coincodex.com/crypto/waves/) is currently way undervalued. It's a small part of my portfolio (https://coincodex.com/portfolio/) but I'm holding it for long-term.

Thanks for your comments!

That’s exactly the problem. Not many people know about other ICO launching platforms and just go to ETH platform because it is in hype. Also ETH is available on all exchanges, whereas these new coins that are far better than ETH are currently available on just a few.

There are quite many other platforms than ETH that are better for launching ICO’s and the technology is far advanced, such as NEO, ADA and WAVES, but people still invest in ETH cause of the popularity it has in the market and the reason that it is available on most exchanges and has also become trading pair for other altcoins.

Convenience and idea of decentralization relate to the price and profit one makes in one way or the other. The more convenient and decentralized the platform is, the more will be its price in the future. Also, another such factor is utility in the market. Its not just the technology and idea that keeps a project growing, there are also other factors such as popularity in the market, its capability to attract the investors and some others. But, I agree that WAVES is far better platform than ETH and is undervalued because it isn’t popular among people and also not available on many exchanges.

According to ETH is just over rated currently being next to the bitcoin in the list of coin market cap. There are far better platforms than ETH in the market than offer smart contract application and have much more advanced technology than ETH. ETH is in top coin just because of the hype created by its promoters and nothing more.

I agree that ETH was the first coin founded as an improvement to bitcoin and was first to make use of smart contracts, but the world is changing and with changing world, more advance technology are being founded, so its time that people moved away from EtH and invested in some more advanced projects such as NEO, ADA and WAVES.

Thank you, your answers have closed some questions for me!

and i think waves need a better marketing strategy to spread the word
if we compared eth with waves, the difference is only about who is the first born in crypto world, and the answer is eth  ;)
but, i'm sure after the smart contracts being applicated in wavesplatform, i believe waves will be more valuable

I like the Waves project and own some Waves tokens in my portfolio.  Waves will take off when the market recovers.  Buying under $4 each is a bargain.  Smart contracts are coming soon for the project. 

I really love this coin as they have their own blockchain and most of the coins are built on their blockchain so I am sure it has a future and we will see waves also get popular in the future.

Hey I'll answer this question of yours base on what I understand and please if my answer does not fit you question please give more details on what are the differences of controls.

Basing on my previous use of waves and ethereum :

Note: I' am pertaining to wallet functions

Waves- is much faster when it it comes to transactions its an wallet the same time an exchange. (Base on my previous

Ethereum- When it comes to wallet and transactions. The must portable and well known wallet used when it comes to Ethereum. That is myetherwallet which is just a wallet not an exchange not like waves wallet, when it comes to this wallet you have to send it on an exchange so I suggest you make an wallet that is the same time an exchange like binance and bittrex.

I did not try this wallets I spoke of so I don't know if this can accepts different altcoins. I only use etherdelta for the altcoins that I earn for etherdelta has the list of  the altcoins I earned.
