We cannot really predict these things. But what do you mean in saying 'do better'? Do you mean their coin/tokens do well in the market or do you mean will the platform get enough users to become successful?
I mean how well their tokens will do on the market in terms of price and overall marketcap.
Of course we can't really predict these things as a certainty.
Ah then it's just a matter of common people and the big whales buying in, thereby increasing their marketcap. That can be manipulated... Easily.
On the other hand if their respective platforms do get enough meaningful users, that's a more solid statement that they 'did well'. A lot of platforms were created and tried, but I have yet to see a truly successful platform in wide use today.
And this is the issue. Great tech, innovation, and outlook doesn't always mean a high marketcap in this industry. As I wrote earlier, look at NXT. I see waves as a kind of Crypto 2.0 version of NXT.
I think LISK might have been the last properly profitable crowdsale in market terms. Lisk raised approx $6m and now has marketcap of $45m, The DAO raised $168m and now has marketcap of $150m. Even though WAVES has raised $16m I'm not sure it'll break $50m (or even $30m)
This is not based on science, just based on what's been going on recently. And to be real about it, most people invest in these ICO/crowdsales for profit on the markets. That's what I'm looking at.
