beta trading platform client 1.0 was released to the public on 13 December
available to view at wavesplatform.com
WAVES is presently 18th largest cryptocurrency by marketcap, over 1billion USD. You can confirm this on coinmarketcap.com
total number of wallets so far is not much more than 150,000
platform advantages:
low trading fees, just 0.001 waves, which trade for about 14USD, ie fee is just 1.4 us cents.
also, it is a decentralised exchange (DEX), so your tokens are kept on your device
also WAVES-NG is expected to have transaction capacity of around 6000 per minute
you can issue your own digital assets if you wish
I found the pairing a bit clunky and not intuitive (so far) and the charting a bit buggy compared to bittrex
needs a little more work but this is, I believe, the first major attempt at a DEX
there are one billion WAVES tokens. Will have to road test!
