Here is my thought :

Devs are keeping the price low. Why ? Because they are waiting for the new DEX to come. If they let the price go at that time, it will create a lot of volume and attract a lot of new customers on the Wave Lite (and so the new DEX).

There development goes in that sens : New website, super clear, easy to understand and to download the Waves Lite -> NG, can drive a lot of volume even if it's not needed right now -> DEX, if the theory is right, big increase in term of transaction, just after the NG.

Nice thinking there. I think you could be very right on this one.

That is quite a bold claim. Do you have any hard evidence for devs keeping the price down?

How would devs keep the price down to begin with?

Firstly it's not a claim but a theory.

If you want to keep the price low, you can do it like whales. Putting very high selling wales at 0.0011 and buy back around 0.0010. If the volume is not to big you can easily keep the price between 10 and 11.

It is sad somehow that Waves is seriously affected by news and other steps of governments along the way of its rise. It is not gaining much traction in the past several days for waves. I hope it gets back to its feet once again and move upward straight.

its simply because wave team is not paying enough attention to the pr and marketing, it will pick up eventually!

Hey guys -

Wanted to chime in on Waves. Ive been holding for quite awhile and have been able to talk to some of the people involved there.

Its 3 fold.

1. They Waves team is NOT focused on PR. THey did not have a big PR budget from the get go and have chosen to spend their time on developments.

2. Cultural differences. We cannot think in terms of Westerns mindsets. Russia is much more focus focus focus, work work work. Here is my product. I am proud. North Americans are used to the hype of something. Just look at the difference in how much American companies spend on PR vs Russians.

3. Slow and steady wins the race. I am 100% certain that after the DEX, we are going to see a price move of $7-8 in a month. The devs are not holding the price down, but they do have contractual obligations that do not allow then to dump coins, like 80% of these guys.

My price prediction for WAVES is slow and steady. Jan 2018 $7-10, Then we will see NEO growth. The roadmap is heavily geared towards Q2 2018 and onwards

Its the american CIA that does not want russia to have the biggest currency in the planet with waves. Once Trump and Putin make real peace and finally end cold war once and for all ,one waves will be worth $5000 and i will be a millionaire

I don't agree. But I may agree that they hold it in lower levels indirectly. Why? Waves is so much popular in forums but nothing on public. Even some ICOs do better PR than Waves. So they are waiting for big move, doesn't really pay much effort for ads in current situation.

Waves' PR is really awful and weak. I just can't understand why team doesn't sell small amount of their waves reserves to promote the platform and DEX. This is just crazy. We're investing in waves, we see it in the first 20 coin on the marketcap web site and no advertisement here.

Waves can fly high if they conduct campaigns.

Maybe they want a finished, great product first.
If that is the case then it is a very, very smart move.
Dont show people 2nd best.
How do you make yourself up on a first date?

I guess it could be the case that they deliberately focus on other things than advertising, which may be an indirect way of keeping the price low. Actively keeping the price low seems odd.

I wouldn't care too much. Solid projects and solid coins pays off eventually, at least that's my attitude.

Maybe it makes sense, i have never thought about it, but it sounds good, maybe you are convincing me to buy more? who knows?
I really wanna buy more waves, but i dont have more money to invest, all my money is already on some projects and i dont have any dollar that is not invested. But waves is amazing, a very good investment for long term for sure, i really believe in their developers, they have a nice community too.

I love crypto

Ive noticed this strange thing about Waves too. Someone is holding price above 100k. The price almost never moves below that.

so many people talk about waves,the price doesnt climb at all,isnt that strange?its like we are living in a truman show.

They just talk but not buy the waves token and what is the difference between there is no interest and all of the people are not buying it right now? that was look strange but that is the fact that a lot of people are not interested in the waves token.

What do you need Waves Coin for? It’s a fee for trading if you use DEX and you need WAVES for bulding a new token. So when less people use DEX, less people need Waves as a fee and less people has to rebuy Waves.
Just look at the 24hVolume right now. On DEX the volume WAVES/BTC is $167,593 and on Bittrex is $1,828,960 (according to coimarketcap)….nearly a difference of 11 Times.

If everybody just hold their Waves,

I support waves by holding it.

how can the price rise?

We have to use WavesDEX more than other Exchanges to increase the volume and attract attention!!!

Interesting observation especially when coupled with some of the personalities Sasha's been meeting up with. In this age and time where a single tweet can send a crypto price high up the Himalayas or down hell's mouth, waves barely bulges. I see a tweet of Sasha with that billionaire and go "Gosh, investors/partnership! Price go moon!!!!!". Scramble up to DEX to check price movement and belp... nary an inch.
Something... something... just don't compute

The most interesting thing is that waves and stratis move in the same way. look at this chart on coinmarket cap. Almost identical.

Interesting thoughts. It's indeed suspicious that the price is more-less flat despite of all the good recent news about Waves (new collaborations, development atc.)
However, I don't think that the developers would be manipulating the price as you say. My guess would be that just whales are waiting and not buying in yet.

Hello guys,

Waves is a strange coin. Very strong team, lots of good news, price flat.

Partnership with Burger King ? Flat (OMG rumors with McDonald, +75%).
New website ? Flat (rebranding Neo / Lisk, dont need to tell you the increase it made)
Lots of partnerships ? Flat
...

There is something we don't get, I heard that whales wanted to keep the price low, it's not true imo, why would they do that exclusively for Waves ?

Here is my thought :

Devs are keeping the price low. Why ? Because they are waiting for the new DEX to come. If they let the price go at that time, it will create a lot of volume and attract a lot of new customers on the Wave Lite (and so the new DEX).

There development goes in that sens : New website, super clear, easy to understand and to download the Waves Lite -> NG, can drive a lot of volume even if it's not needed right now -> DEX, if the theory is right, big increase in term of transaction, just after the NG.

This could be the best advertising campaign for the new DEX.

I know devs are working hard on the global Waves masterplan, they have other things to do than manipulating the price, but something is wrong about Waves atm and if they are manipulating it for that reason, it's a good reason.

Again, just a theory, let me know what do you think about it.

Well honestly, if we think about it, your theories actually makes sense. Because no one wants to gain small. Everyone wants bigtime profits as soon as possible not unless they have been seminared( the big time investors) by the wave developer's team about plans that can give them big enough profits in the future which caught their attention. But then again, nothing's sure about this so yeah, I'll be watching this.

Waves are clearly top 3 coin in future and I agree, price is being manipulated hard. But the time will come...that kind of a project is to huge to not be noticed.
