Waves is still under development ... but still allow to trade really fast for a decentralized exchange.
In few weeks the new UI will be released and this will be huge: http://etherdesign.io/project/dex

The DEX is very young, the volume will come slowly when peoples understand that:

• You can trade straight after receiving your ICO tokens
• All your funds are safe because they are still on your wallet
• It's trading almost fast as a centralized exchange

great article/ insight Lorilikes
cheers , i like the long term outlook for Waves imo

Here is a really important, must-read white paper by Sasha Ivanov please check it out. 


https://wavesplatform.com/files/whitepaper_v0.pdf

In the white papers opening pages, Ivanov explains
"We propose to focus on other uses of blockchain tokens – those which are often overlooked in favor of the low-level opportunities which blockchain technology might provide, such as smart contracts. There is very strong untapped potential in a classical colored coins approach, and the WAVES platform is designed to realize this to its fullest extent.
Smart contracts, being a natural development of Bitcoin scripting, are inevitable and will be one of the cornerstones of blockchain technology. On the other hand, certain features are much easier to implement using other approaches. Custom tokens operations realized as an attachment to blockchain transactions are very flexible and can be used in a variety of applications, from national currencies transfer over the blockchain to decentralized trading. A focus on such operations might well complement the approach introduced by Ethereum. [1]
In the following sections we will describe the technical motivation for WAVES platform's features and illustrate them with use cases. We intend to determine the most “production-ready” aspects of current blockchain technology and apply them to the real-world problems."

After reading tge white paper again, here are my quick thoughts:
On the contrary to what people here may lead you to believe,  Waves is not only a platform for the creation
Of new tokens, it's a decentralized exchange, it has use cases for crowd funding, asset to asset trading,  AND users can choose to pay the transaction fees for token and asset trades using 🌟THEIR OWN🌟custom tokens. 🌟🌟🌟🌟 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️That is a great, useful feature! 

I got the impression two of the 3 people you quoted were waves investors and the other wasn't...

So all of you are suggesting that run away from waves! It is just miracle that being such scam it's still running all its signature and twitter campaign and paying to their users. May be that's just to keep fake genuineness amongst the people? We must stay away from such campaigns too as it may turn out to be scam. Oh God the world is still filled with idiots. Why don't just burn waves from the forum too. Lolz

Just started using Waves a couple months ago but have become a huge fan already. Fast, easy to use, inexpensive. The DEX is a great touch that I think will play a huge role in its future success. There is a great team behind it, huge projects like MobileGo and lots of development. Think Waves will give Ethereum a real run for its money. Definitely something you want to hold on to.

Keep talking trash, but we'll see in few months.

Lol sounds like he isn't a fan, I actually like the waves platform though I will admit I've been disappointed in the slow price increase over time.

so... im assuming youre saying do not invest into waves ? hahaha

waves developer is the luckiest guy in the space, I still don't believe this project raise more than 30000BTC. The exchange is full of only shit coins, low trading volume, the tokens can be generated at will and even duplicated on the platform. You would expect a project like this that is well funded to have someting you can point to that is better or even best at, you can't say that about Waves platform. With time most people will realised that most of these projects are just for side show

Use for russian prostitution industry and scam ico's just like Eth

So waves is an exchange and also allows for ICOs to be performed somewhat like Ethereum.

... but What exactly is the Waves token used for?
