Little-known public blockchain Waves debuted an upgraded protocol today that it’s billing as the fastest in the world. Waves-NG, a “next generation” update of the Waves blockchain that first launched back in 2016, is currently running a stress test to reinforce that claim.
The Moscow-based company completed its ICO back in June 2016, before initial coin offerings became the fad they are today, pulling in $16 million, a substantial raise at the time.
Like Ethereum, Waves has smart-contract capabilities built-in and allows a host of other businesses to launch tokens on its chain. Some 5,519 tokens have been released on the platform to date, totaling a market capitalization of $1 billion, according the company’s website. Unlike the Bitcoin and Ethereum blockchains, Waves runs on a proof-of-stake basis rather than proof-of-work, meaning it doesn’t demand heavy compute resources in order to process transactions. (You can find an overview of proof-of-work vs. proof-of stake here.) The Waves-NG upgrade promises to accelerate transactions even faster. (It takes its name and strategy from Bitcoin-NG, a 2016 proposal for upgrading Bitcoin transaction speeds that drew support from within the Bitcoin community before faltering amid debate.)
Businesses and applications that require high transaction rates could find Waves to be a more compelling public platform choice than Ethereum. Blockchain expert Emin Gun Sirer, who coauthored the 2016 Bitcoin-NG proposal, told VentureBeat that the Waves-NG stress test has impressed him so far. “I just saw the results from today’s tests — they are achieving an unprecedented 190 transactions/second. This leaves Bitcoin, at 3 transactions/second, in the dust,” he said. Ethereum apparently processes about 5 or 6 transactions per second.
Gun Sirer noted that Burger King Russia recently launched its Whoppercoin token — designed to store loyalty points on the blockchain — on Waves. “If you plan to transact at [the rates of that size business], existing systems like Bitcoin and Ethereum can’t keep up — 3 to 7 transactions/second will not handle the throughput required to serve billions of burgers in Russia, let alone the globe,” he said.
I am very i pressed by the 190 transactions/second news. With 3 transactions/second and 5 or 6 transactions per second, Bitcoin and Ethereum are basically becoming already obsolete.

Hello, how many Waves community token do I need to receive airdrops? Just bought few WCT. I think waves will rival ethereum soon.

are they airdropping BCH to new waves account with waves and wct token in jt or just the old ones?
i have 2 waves account and i notice the other didn't get some token airdrop.
bch in our wallet will be awesome.

BCH was airdropped to all WCT owners. So if you had Waves but no WCT, you couldn't possibly get BCH out of the airdrop.
That is correct, only to waves community tokens holders received the BCH airdrop. There will be more BCH airdrops so it's not too late to pick up some WCTs. Sasha mentioned there's a total about 1000 BCH to be airdropped and only 100 BCH has been distributed so far. There will probably be other airdrops for WCT holders also. WCT is the token that keeps on giving.

Are the Waves Community Token airdrops still ongoing, next one on the 15th? For how long would this be going on?
In september was the last airdrop, if you want to own WCT you can buy them on the dex in the waves wallet.
What is this Bitcoin Cash airdrop about for WCT holders? I haven't been following this thread too closely lately. Is there anything I need to do/know as a WCT holder?
If you keep your WCT in your Waves Lite client, you will receive BCH airdrops.
The Waves team is airdropping a total of 1,000 BCH in batches of 100 each.
First one took place on last Thursday (the 9th).
Are the Waves Community Token airdrops still ongoing, next one on the 15th? For how long would this be going on?
Not sure how often they do the airdrop, could be once a week.
Just hold on to your WCT
Nice one thanks for letting me know. Will it be one airdrop per week every Thursday now? And does it matter how long my coins are in my personal wallet or is it ok if they are in my wallet just shortly before the airdrop?

Rewards to rise for mining and leasing WAVES!
With Waves-NG just around the corner and rewards set to increase to around 5% per year, it’s a great time to start mining WAVES and generating an income from your holdings.
Miners rewards are about to rise substantially! The terms for miners are changing, making running a node or leasing your balance even more profitable. Projections are that miners will be able to earn up to 5% annually on their balances — not taking into account expected increases in transaction volumes, or the price of WAVES.
Not only that, but the Waves platform has just successfully tested the NG consensus protocol, which promises vastly increased speeds and throughput on the blockchain. Once NG is released on mainnet in mid-December, we expect the network to be able to process around 6,000 transactions per minute — making it the fastest production blockchain in the world, with many more transaction fees to distribute.
Mine WAVES for profit
With the number of transactions rising steadily over the past few months, and about to take another step up as NG goes live, there are new opportunities for miners to generate an income from their holdings. All you need is 10,000 WAVES and a simple hosted server to run the client — you won’t need any specialist hardware. You can find guides on how to get set up at https://www.cryptocompare.com/mining/guides/how-to-mine-waves/. You’ll receive all of the transaction fees from the blocks you process, in WAVES and other assets, as well as rewards in the form of the Miners Reward Token (MRT). The total annual rewards earned by miners will increase by up to 5% in the beginning of 2018.
Lease your WAVES
If you don’t have 10,000 WAVES or don’t want to maintain a node, you can always lease your balance to a miner or mining pool. Simply click on the Leasing tab in the lite client and assign your balance to the address of the mining pool you want to use. By doing this, you support the network and get paid rewards, but won’t have to run a node yourself. Leased balances remain in the full control of the owner — they never leave your account — and you can cancel the lease and unlock the WAVES for your own use at any time, with just two clicks.
You can find more information and a list of mining pools at http://wavescommunity.com/leasing. Different pools pay out different proportions of their revenues, in WAVES and MRT, as well as sometimes their own assets. Lease or mine WAVES, secure the network, help process transactions and get paid!

Waves are liquid!
The emerging crypto-economy closely resembles the old, traditional economy — in fact, it is a continuation of it, just on a new technical and conceptual level. A major part of this crypto ecosystem is an open market price discovery mechanism, which takes place on both centralised exchanges and on the emerging decentralised crypto exchanges. What we’re potentially going to see in the future is streamlined financial markets, with low entry barriers, less regulation (at least less centralised regulation; regulation will be carried out through crowdintelligence, smart contracts and AI), low transaction fees and liquid orderbooks.
But there’s still a long way to go to get there, from the perspective of both regulation and infrastructure. We are trying to offer new regulatory solutions as well as provide some of the required infrastructure solutions for the ecosystem. Let’s discuss token liquidity here and see what we can do to create open markets where a token issuer can tap into natural liquidity, to ensure the price discovery mechanism is more stable, and token prices less volatile.
Currently, liquidity is quite a big issue for new crypto assets. You don’t have guaranteed trading volumes when your ICO token hits exchanges. Many teams who are focused on their ICO and getting their token listed on exchanges find it quite surprising that they have to do anything else after that. Because of this lack of liquidity, even good projects can have issues with their communities, since this is quite often perceived as a sign of something being wrong with the project itself.
There are different ways to tackle this problem, both traditional and with new, decentralised methods. I should mention a very interesting approach from Bancor, which promises to create a guaranteed liquidity mechanism, based on smart contracts and low-level protocols. This is a disruptive approach changing the whole centuries-old mechanism of open market trading.
Unfortunately, at this stage it’s probably too early to rely solely on a smart contract-driven approach, since there are several technical and conceptual issues to tackle first. However, we can start implementing such a smart contract approach, combining it with more traditional market making — that is, providing liquidity through algorithmic automated trading robots.
I want to announce the first market making fund aimed at providing liquidity for new tokens. The economics behind the fund is quite simple: if you want market-making for your token you need to buy some of the fund’s tokens from the open market and hold the tokens in your account for the whole period of market-making services. Through this the fund’s token acquires value and may become interesting not only as a service token, but also as an investment.
I’ve talked to several market-maker teams who wish to participate in the fund and provide their services to token holders. If you are interested in being one of the market makers please contact me. This is a booming market with potentially hundreds of teams involved.
The fund’s goal is to provide liquidity for the new, emergent market of crypto tokens. All tokens compliant with current regulation should have access to guaranteed liquidity.
The liquidity revolution has begun! Stay tuned for the official announcement.

Awesome news on Waves! The stress test went very well, you can check the result in the blogpost!
https://blog.wavesplatform.com/waves-ng-stress-test-results-in-44090f59bb15
"The nodes processed a total of 4.6 million transactions, giving an average throughput of 2,000 txs/minute. Peak bandwidth was 17,000 txs/minute. When it comes to running the software on mainnet, we expect nodes to be able to process up to 6,000 txs/minute, or 100 per second."

This is great. So waves is going to be the coin with the most txs/minute? Is there any other coin out there with similar stats?
Bitcore (BTX) can process 42k txs per minute (60.8 mio per 24hr) . It is growing exponentially. Waves NG's speed was impressive however. These speeds are crypto approriate
Were did you got that info ? BTX blocks has a 10min interval.
Waves NG keyblocks has 1min interval, and 3sec for microblocks.

This is good news, soon if nodes to be able to process up to 6,000 txs/minute i think more people will interested to using waves coin for payment. Because i think this is very fast, i hope the team of waves can do it https://blog.wavesplatform.com/waves-ng-stress-test-results-in-44090f59bb15

Are these real signed onchain txs? I really doubt. IMO such an amount of signed onchain txs is not possible due to restrictions in computing power and network limitations.

OK Guys,
Here goes, feel free to throw rotten vegetables at me etc.
I have 11k MER stored on my Cryptopia wallet.
Noticed a few months back that the wallet was locked and there was a message stating that due to a Waves update trading had been halted until the issue could be fixed.
I never received any email notification from Cryptopia that they were de-listing all waves tokens and the message is still there stating that they are talking with Waves team to resolve.
Every time i logged in the wallet was locked.
I now see they had some withdrawal deadline in October.
Am i totally stuffed? I can still see my wallet in Cryptopia which still shows my balance.
Do i have any options to get my coins back?
Cheers,

The best option you have is to contact the support team from cryptopia.
They are the only one who can solve you're issue.
they gonna regret to de-listning of the Mercury
