An Update on Waves (WAVES)
Waves is a cryptocurrency and platform that features a wallet, decentralized exchange, and tools for launching tokens. As a WAVES holder you can lease your stake and generate income. It’s a Russia based project so it doesn’t get as much press as some others, but I think it’s a good one to own for 2018.
Recently Waves has announced a bunch of news and partnerships, so let’s see what’s going on.
One partnership is with Astana International Financial Center, which is a financial free zone in Kazakhstan. It wants to be a financial hub of Central Asia. What’s interesting is that in the press release they say it’s a “significant step towards the normalization and adoption of blockchain technology at the state level.”
Next up, RewardMob, a mobile eSports rewards platform, will use the Waves platform. RewardMob is software game developers can easily incorporate into their games to increase retention and monetization. According to RewardMob CTO Colin Bracey Waves was the only platform that could keep up with their transaction needs.
Waves also partnered with Group-IB, a cybersecurity firm, to fight against phishing attacks.
In another interesting partnership, Waves will be working with Tokenomy, which will give it access to Southeast Asia.
Based out of Indonesia, Tokenomy is an ICO platform where you can do everything from proposing a project to launching and listing a token. They’ll use Waves as their token platform. What’s interesting is that the CEO of Tokenomy, Ocscar Darmawan, also runs Bitcoin.co.id, an Indonesian crypto exchange.
In exchange news, Waves got listed on BCEX. It’s a China-based exchange that operates out of Canada.
On the ICO front Simdaq reached its hard cap in 28 hours, raising $5 million. It’s product is a set of tool for crypto trading.
There’s also MyTrackNet, a blockchain-based geo-tracking app. It had a successful pre-ICO that ended January 31 where they raised $625,000.
Don’t sleep on WAVES!
and trade cryptos on Binance
I like this one - it’s leasing proof of stake is quite nice. But I fe like Russian based ico platform is super risky thing to be involved in. They should base it in London!
Borders become less and less meaningful w crypto. I like Sasha. And I think they might have an office in Europe already. But you're right, it wouldn't hurt if they had one in London as well.
I do like thier move to use waves for fees. The junk tokens on waves were one of the most annoying things.
Wave slow but sure
Thanks for this post! Looks like a strong start for this project!
$ 625,000.awesome, he must be smart to play lunch at bitcoin. Because there we have to play smart, because the price of bitcoin stock can go up and down.
good information for Wave
the more days it becomes steadily waves. thanks you for information
Thanks!
Waves is an interesting project. But let's be honest here: Can't compete with already stablished competitors like NEO or other big projects with major company support like EOS. Period.
I like all three and think there's room for all at this point... but if you made me pick one it would be NEO.
Each can serve it's own purpose. Followed and Upvoted. Great pic
I actually really like waves. Thank you for the post, I had almost forgotten about it!
Hasn't been this cheap in a long time!
