That is a great video!

Waves tech is at least as good as EOS but has much more history and is mature. Obviously it's much more decentralised as well and the community/support is second to none. I keep 40% BTC, 40% Waves, 10% EOS and 10% trading fund in my portfolio.

Waves is a really great project. I met it's founder Alex Ivanov in Russia, he told about plans and amitions of Waves. As for me, I hold a lot of tokens and don't plan selling them in the nearest years. Their blockchain is fast.

Waves is a potential coin and deserves to be a top 10 coins but it is a long way to go to outperform ETH, I will definitely grab some more Wawes to my portfolio while it is relatively cheap.

It already outperform ETH in terms of speed and performance and DAPPS based on Waves Platform RIDE standard will see a huge boost in usefullness in the next week or two.

Actually even they create more fast than bitcoin now like waves still both have different worth like they are very useful then another thing i don't look what is fast about transaction i look in fees so for me bitcoin is good in all then this is already trusted here in crypto with many different transaction and many trading pairs so even yahoo finance say that in news better to look at the worth of everything like use all

I think the gist of what you said is, 'It's all very well having the fastest blockchain but you also have to look at fees'.

Well yes. I am happy with the fees on Waves platform. They are orders of magnitude cheaper than Bitcoin. That's why I use Waves to store & move around all my other crypto. The trading fees on the Waves Distributed Exchange (WAVES DEX) are also cheap and I like having the same interface on my desktop & phone.

Now waves are in position 21 in the coinmarketcap. Waves have to beat 18 on it to be the top 3 platform. The fastest public blockchain is not enough to be a top 3 platform, it has to be seen as well as other features so that it can be a top 3 platform.

I think the lack of marketing and more platform are the reasons why Waves' potential is not materializing, we know here that Waves is very fast but how about the people who are not here but looking for a fast payment method, the majority of topics here are all about Bitcoin and Ethereum.

I don't know about marketing. How many other blockchain platforms featured on CNN TV, Bloomberg, Yahoo Finance etc

How does that compare to Waves?

Not very favorably. With Waves you see transaction in less than 1 second.

In any case EOS is more like Ripple with it's private master nodes - it's not proper decentralised blockchain.

I'm not too sure about that, the article does not mention exactly how fast the confirmation times are.
Frankly, the article reads more like an advertisement, since there's almost no editorial input.

The only thing we're getting are claims made by people who are involved with the project itself.

Steem and EOS both have confirmation times of just a couple of seconds.

Apparently, since December 2017 (WavesNG) - I would have thought Waves would be top 3 platform.

Even though I dont not hold this coin and technically, I am not an expert, I think what the author claimed in the article is reasonable (with a specific intention), one of them for the project itself. It would be nice if the author attaches data related to claims as the fastest public blockchain platform in the world.

I don't really understand technically, waves are one of those who have advanced technology, but the problem is the waves don't have smart contracts like eth. and I admit that waves are crypto that have enough opportunities to grow in the next few years.

Actually, waves does has smart contract which will allows a host of other businesses to launch tokens on its chain and other functions as well. You can find it here : https://wavesplatform.com/developers/smart-contracts

The word 'public' is very important here, there might be faster blockchains that doesn't fit to the definition of 'public'. Anyways, Waves is a great platform with wide potential for public and private application.

I don't like waves. I know they have their advantages but i still don't like it, last time i invest in it because they were giving Airdrops for its holders but soon i bought them, the price of waves started dropping, it was as if they lured the investors to hold waves for Airdrop and then started selling their own coins

To be honest, this is new information for me, I did not even think that waves have the fastest blockchain. Maybe this advantage will help him in the future. Although many projects are puzzled how to increase the speed of transactions in their network, and many it seems to work.

I have seen a lot of articles about Waves recently. They also raised the advantages of Waves. I also recognize them very much, but I am very disappointed in the bear market, even if a good project is difficult to get attention.

Don't be disappointed because this is just part of the game. We have already waited for about a year now so we are getting closer to the tail end of the bear season and we might see 2019 as the start of a bull run. As far as Waves though, it's debatable, you will hear the XRP or even LTC is faster so as they say. But if you see this kind of article, I have doubts though, maybe they just wanted to give it a headline or maybe a paid advertisement.

There are many coins with fast speed. If the coins are concentrated, the speed is usually very fast. I don’t think that speed is the pursuit now. Otherwise, the price of Ethereum has already been surpassed. The speed is not scarce. The first-mover advantage is important, not speed.

I am wondering why Wave is so fast but Ethereum is still used in most projects. And projects on Wave seem to be ineffective, at least their token prices. So, fast is not most feature of a blockchain technology. All are just "they claim", their is no evidence from a third-party.

Are you joking? The Waves is the fastest blockchain in the whole world among lots of others very strong and really fast blockchains? So I do not consider it to be the fastest. And it should be done a lot first in order it becomes the fastest.

I am not sure if Waves is the fastest blockchain in the world, but I don't know why this is generating huge noise, being fast does mean it is safe, I have seen many ICO in the space promising fast speed but they are not secured. Security of the platfrom is the most important thing to me and other things like speed follows

Moreover, fast transactions/speed is not a criteria for a good cryptocurrency/platform. In some perspective, bitcoin transactions are instant only confirmations need up to 10 minutes of time. At the same time I'm not doubting about the security of waves platform as they are keep updating their questions more frequently.

Waves is always my favorite coins and platform and I always thinking about why it is not as big as successful how ethereum is doing. I guess this time waves may knock out its competitors as it is having limited supply and many other attractive features which are good for convincing any level of investors.

you can get that statement on their social media or you can go to here for more about it; https://blog.wavesplatform.com/waves-sets-record-for-maximum-transactions-per-day-c540c9ea92e9

based on that, until today. At best it is only around a hundred~hundreds of transactions per second. While XLM can do 1000 transaction per second based on their claim.
that means XLM is the fastest public blockchain in the world until today.

about XLM, you can read it here; https://www.lumenauts.com/blog/how-many-transactions-per-second-can-stellar-process

You're wrong.

XLM isn't decentralised so you are comparing chalk with cheese. The masternode's can't be considered 'public' either.

In any case you are wrong on speed as well.

Waves can sustain 10K TPS with bulk transfers. So Waves clearly is the fastest.

You are wrong and Yahoo Finance is right.

Alright, it's my fault for not seeing 'public platform' on the thread.
and mind to tell me, where did you see that waves can sustain 10k TPS? obviously, it'll be the fastest blockchain in our world if it is true, but until now.
I have yet to figure this out on the internet? not even on their social media mention it.

The 10K TPS figure is for mass transfers - 100TPS X 100 (MAX) mass transfer = 10K TPS.
The mass transfer really is very useful for airdrops and other transfer types where lots of payments need to be made.

Oh. And I appreciate your civility - not so common on BitCoinTalk Alt forums!

You should put the main concern on the utility rather than scalability.

It's no good having 'utility' as you say, when the network is slow and congested.

Fast transfers, payments and airdrops etc are a big factor in selecting which platform to use for a utility token.

I don't know if this is true, but regardless if it is true or not, Waves platform is very promising in terms of blockchain technology and investment for long term. The usefuless, security and accessibility of wave platform made blockchain technology easy to use. In terms of investment, a bigger percent profit is most likely due to low current price.
