WAVES. Ultimate crypto-tokens blockchain platform.

They said earlier they will show the escrow address. We will see.

How about extending the period for a limited time and closing the ico earlier?

Some people have a strategy to wait for the last day. If the ICO is made shorter for any reason, it must be well publisised so that any change in the advertised ICO is not done in a ninja-style.

more ninja-style than today?

joke aside. 3000 on the first day alone and 49 to go. i fear a rather bleak ROI but only time will tell.

This Waves Presale page https://wavesplatform.com/contract_info shows me:

Total number of sales
0
Total amount of BTC
0

And this one https://ico.wavesplatform.com/ shows: 3057.12342898 BTC


Smells like scam  

I highly suggest refraining from saying such things as there's solid proof that the developers are who they are an that this project is backed up heavily by big investors.

The only scam coin I know is ADZCOIN out right now.

I am discouraged by this process. I signed up almost 8 hours ago and deposited a small amount of bitcoin as a test before I did more. I was reading that it was taking a long time for many people so I decided to start small. Almost 8 hours later now and though my btc has long been confirmed as withdrawn there is no sign of it showing up on my waves dashboard. Is this the experience that everyone is having? Is there a wave representative monitoring these threads who can explain what is happening and why the long delays. My experience so far inspires no confidence whatsoever.

What is promising about waves? Is there any new innovation?

so you are now as calm as cucumber... a while ago you were keep on demanding the 20% first day ICO promo..

[NoBit]

At the moment there is no way to prove if the distribution of tokens is fair. We can't see the value of the transactions.  

[fragout]

I wonder how sales will go after day 1 bonus of over. Any thoughts?

[Come-from-Beyond]

BTW, was the name "Waves" picked to tease Ripple because the market niches intersect?

[philakone]

Depositing from POLO, any exchange, or your personal wallet HAS NO AFFECT on WHEN you receive your coin. It has never mattered before for depositing (except from mining pools to deposit directly to exchange is a no no on some sites). If it DID matter, I'm 100% sure the developers would specify such a simple instruction in their WAVES ICO page. This assumption is correct right? Don't assume things you don't know.

How much WAVES will I get with 1 BTC or how much is a WAVE right now? No one knows the EXACT answer. There are set X amounts of WAVES available during this ICO and all the WAVES are distributed PROPORTIONALLY to how much you bought. For example, if there are 1000 waves and 2000 people all pay equally (regardless of the amount), we will all get 0.5 waves each. I hope that makes sense by using a very basic example.

Logging out for 15 minutes then back in, and it if works, is purely coincidental.  There's no control over anything. The email issue is also related to ongoing issues. Browser cache or browsers or email providers have little to do with receiving confirmation email. That's just superstition speaking.

It's a FACT that we ALL will receive our WAVES. There's no doubt in my mind that the developers are competent and trustworthy. The big question is when and this is a question everyone wants to know.

If we do NOT get our waves DEPOSITED within the 20% bonus period, will we still be credited the 20% bonus when it is deposited since we DID purchase within the bonus period time frame?

Please keep quoting me on that question to make it relevant. We ALL want to know that answer right? That's the single most important question right now. Everyone please be patient. I'm just a user like you, but I'm sure that this post alone can answer everyone's question of what's going on and how we can deal with it and what questions we'd like answered.

There's also no way to prove that exchanges don't actually rip us off and no proof that mining pools are fair too. But it doesn't mean we can't have faith? I want to reassure you and tell you that it's going to be all good. You are here because you believed in WAVES. Don't let small technical issues that are entirely 100% expected to happen ruin the fun in participating in an ICO.

How does this compare to Bitshares and Openledger?

Any fix for the "User can not be saved" problem?

How does this compare to Bitshares and Openledger?

Q: What is the diference betwen Waves and Bitshares/OpenLedger?

A: OpenLedger is based on the BitShares’s “market peg” idea. BitShares differs from WAVES in two fundamental ways. First, its consensus algorithm is DPoS, meaning that only a given number of “delegates” have the power to validate blockchain transactions, as opposed to the PoS consensus where each full node is accredited for validation. This means that the WAVES platform supports full decentralization whereas BitShares team is not taking a step out of their “delegated” version. The second difference is the feasibility of the “market peg” approach. This is of course open to discussion, but one may objectively evaluate the success of that approach by looking at the history of their most praised market pegged crypto-asset, namely, BitUSD. I doubt if any big corporation in the future will ever decide to rely on the idea “if everyone thinks something is worth 1 USD, then that thing is forced to be worth 1 USD.”

All current colored coins implementations have severe limitations. Obviously Bitcoin blockchain based tokens won’t work due to 10 min confirmation times. In Ethereum it’s quite difficult to create a decentralized exchange. Openledger is a web-interface to Bitshares blockchain actually, it’s not a colored coins protocol.

We are focused specifically on custom blockchain tokens. Our vision is very different from Bitshares vision, for example. Personally I don’t think that pegged assets is a viable idea. We want to do for blockchain tokens what Ethereum is doing for Bitcoin scripting — make it perfect.

I think ICO ends in May 31st so there is still plenty of time but dont know if devs can change rules.

maybe you're already logged.

Me that error has occurred and then I saw that was already logged.

[reRaise]

Is Waves build on Ethereum?

No, I am not. I haven't received a password either.

[mindlessner]

I have send two transactions, first was 7 hours ago, second one just a moment ago.

The second one showed up on my ico.wavesplatform.com right away.
But after waiting 7 hour there is not a trace of the first one in my account.
Blockchain.info shows both transactions, with 47 confirmations for the first one.

WTF is going on?
