Up to 6000 transactions per minute or per second 

Great Picture. The Next Green Wave is coming.

Boss man Sasha working his magic!  Waves will be a Tsunami! 

Thank you very much. It finally happened! The smart contracts functionality is realeased on the Waves mainnet.  They will be activated by the end of the month, and after that another portion of decentralized applications functionality will be released. This is just a beginning of the road which will lead to Waves chain being able to support any kind of sensible real world decentralized applications. At the same time on Vostok platform the development of full turing complete smart contracts that can be coded in any language and run in docker containers is under way. We'll have a swiss army knife of blockchains, capable of doing whatever one might need them to do.

I agree on that. The fair value is the rational and unbiased estimate of the potential market price of a good, service, or asset. It takes into account such objective factors as: acquisition, production, distribution costs, replacement costs, or costs of close substitutes. And marketing plays a major role indeed. Well, for the real value of the project it rises with adoption, business and tech development, a good team and more funding. Hopeful for WAVES!

Congrats!

What is happening with Coinomat asset swaps, this is beyond frustration now, some of us have had +100k USD tied up in Coinomat and other NXT assets Sasha launched years ago, and for years we watch him raise millions of ICO dollars, start new projects, and totally ignore past investors who helped him get established. I can't believe this really happens in broad daylight and nobody currently working with waves , and Sasha personally  seems to be bothered. Sasha has effectively stolen large sums of money from people, and still people 'trust' him ... totally amazing, the Coinomat and NXT assets need to be swapped asap, otherwise people will be forced to take legal action, everything about Coinomat is known, the history is plane to see, Sasha refuses to honour the swaps from 2016 which is the same as stealing.

On 21 September Waves Developers Advocate Inal Kardanov will be giving a presentation about Smart Contracts in Singapore.

Inal will discuss the differences between the various smart contract technologies, as well as the future direction of this functionality and the decentralized applications that will be built with it. He will also show how to start developing Waves Smart Contracts and will tell why Waves Smart Accounts are much more powerful than it seems at first glance.

See you there: http://meetu.ps/e/FPlkQ/GKb98/f

Since the deployment of smart contract the price seem to have been stronger. Though of course the bear market had pulled it down month before it but yes seem to be great seeing one of my investment is fighting back this bear trend. Pretty much sure this will be in the good status when all these bears are done. Congrats to the team.

Hello. Unfortunately, we haven't any official contests and promotional activity at this moment. Kindly subscribe on our news and announcements channel and you'll be able to stay informed about upcoming airdrops and common events: https://t.me/wavesnews

Together with the action on smart contract, we're starting to see some action regarding its price. It is slowly recovering and the volume is starting to ramp up. This maybe the effect of the announcement of the smart contract and it is possible to see significant price appreciation when people starts to think the true value of this update in Waves platform.

On another note, is there any ongoing airdrop happening to Waves holders? Didn't have the time to track it but if someone from you guys can provide a link regarding those airdrop, it would really be much appreciated.

It is old interview but good for who haven't read yet. And it is time to see action on smart contract.

They are happy to announce that our smart contracts launch process on MainNet has officially started: https://telegra.ph/Waves-Platform-Enhances-Blockchain-Functionality-09-10
It's just the beginning, folks — the start of many wonderful things that will be happening in the Waves ecosystem in the future!
I will share something new information related with waves platform, let's wait and see, stay on here to getting latest updating, innovations development of waves platform. Thank you

You said: "You are misinformed.  Every platform could be utilized regardless of the price of the tokens."   That is precisely what I am saying. Thanks.  But I will allow Simon Black to explain more fully the point I am trying to get across. Do not get me wrong, I love WAVES and own lots of it, but I also want to recognize something and get out of or into something before the crowd sees the light.  Read this:

" Back in the early 1990s when the consumer Internet was in its infancy, the “World Wide Web” didn’t really exist.

We used to use something called ‘gopher’, a text and menu-based version of the web.

Then a bunch of engineers perfected hypertext transfer protocol, ‘http’, and the World Wide Web as we know it today was born.

Given how much better the user experience was with http, it didn’t take long for gopher to almost completely disappear.

The same thing could happen in crypto.

And this is important, because as these new Distributed Ledger Technologies continue to develop, it’s possible that almost ALL of today’s tokens and cryptocurrencies could disappear.

Some of the newest Distributed Ledger Technologies don’t even have tokens.

Hyperledger, for instance, is a project run by the Linux Foundation in partnership with dozens of major companies like IBM, Accenture, Cisco, Deutsche Bank, Intel, and American Express.

They’ve already released a number of working DLTs. And not a single Hyperledger DLT comes with a native coin or token.

In other words, it’s like a really advanced blockchain without the Bitcoin.

The use cases for Hyperledger are far-reaching- document storage, financial transactions, property records, even voting.

In fact there’s a candidate for US Congress in the state of California who claims that he’ll use the technology to allow his constituents to vote directly on federal legislation.

Then there are the banks-- many of whom are developing their own DLTs.

JP Morgan already launched one called Quorum, an open-source distributed ledger and smart contract platform that rapidly processes financial transactions among a closed network of participants.

They’ve essentially created a blockchain to modernize global banking infrastructure.

Outdated crypto technology doesn’t stand much of a chance when some of the largest firms in the world are putting a ton of resources into making it better.

And this brings me to where the real opportunity is.

Most of the talk about cryptocurrency these days seems focused on what’s going to be the next Bitcoin or Ether. People are trying to figure out what’s the next currency or heavily promoted ICO that can turn $1,000 into $1 million.

That’s probably not the right way to look at this sector anymore.

Certainly there are a handful of specific tokens or coins that have real utility (like some of the privacy coins).

But again, aside from those select few, it’s possible that today’s most popular cryptocurrencies and tokens might follow in the footsteps of gopher.

It’s not going to happen tomorrow. But over the next 5-10 years, inferior, pointless coins and tokens could easily be replaced by superior technology.

So rather than trying to speculate on the next hot ICO, or divining whether going YOLO in Shitcoin, TrumpCoin, or Fuzzballs will make you a crypto millionaire, the real fortunes to be made are in the application of these technologies.

Manufacturing. Real estate. Insurance. Global shipping. Retail. Healthcare.

There are litereally thousands upon thousands of compelling, lucrative ways to apply these Distributed Ledger Technologies across various industries around the world.

This is what happened with the Internet. Once the technology was developed, the real money wasn’t made by the people who developed TCP/IP and HTTP.

It was made by the entrepreneurs who applied the technology in ways that fundamentally changed how we do business… and by the investors who backed them.

Right now those opportunities with DLT are wide open.

To your freedom,

You are misinformed.  Every platform could be utilized regardless of the price of the tokens.  One of the reasons for the major price decline for ETH is that the ICO's that have raised millions of dollars are now panicking and dumping some of their ETH's to keep operations going.  Waves just released smart contracts and are now in the spotlight.  People are starting to realize how undervalued this project is and can feel the tsunami coming.

What is the use case for the WAVES token?  Could the platform be used without the coin having a high price?  What use case of the token will influence a higher price for the token?

Ethereum is falling now because people realize that the Ethereum platform can be used with no price support for the Ethereum token. How is WAVES different?  Thanks
