Sorry, I  thought you misspoke but I misunderstood.

For example, if I were to create a coin on the Waves platform, and then Waves were to go out of business, would I be able to move the coin to the Ethereum platform?

Or once you choose a platform, are you pretty much stuck with it?

I have seen coins fork into entirely new algorithms, so I imagine there is a way to do what you suggest. If I were you, though, I'd steer clear of the ETH backbone. If you want to design a token, take a look at NEM. In my opinion it works much better. I have no experience with WAVES.

Edit: When you say "create" you are mining? Also, I have no experience with Waves directly.

No, I am literally the creator of the coin.  The man who dreamt-up the idea.   Smiley

Yes you can move coins. If they shut down there is always a chance you cannot get all or even any of your coins. Try to keep coins in wallet on your computer or phone. Only leave enough on exchanges for trading.
