WAVES release is in 3 days

Embrace crypto my friend. Its here to stay

Just direct them to the official crypto thread. Idk why it's so hard to just keep it to one thread.

This is the crypto board, not a board with a crypto thread.

Veeky Forums was created for crypto we own this place

i don't know if it's because i don't know anything about business & finances, but all the cryptocoin stuff always seem so fishy or stupid. i suspect that most people that are into this stuff haven't actually made a lot of money before, but i don't know

Fishy?

Yes, its extremely fishy. Please do not invest and make easy profits.

Every single one except BTC and possibly ETH and LISK are pump and dumps

There is a vast amount of money to be made here. The trick is to not be greedy and sell before the owners dump and hand you the bag.

Waves is less scammy than lisk. Lisk doesnt even work and the whole concept is worthless and pointless

Waves is a real thing that is useful

dw shill, ill play ur game but im selling long before you will senpai

>WAVES release is in 3 days.
>it's already being sold
uhm, OK

see this
Waves is NOT opened for trading.
They are trading a "placeholder" thata will be worth a shit in a few days

Any predictions on how it will perform in the market?

probably $2-$4

I wanted to make a joke.... but the memories... them feels... take my ad/v/ice, play this game if you want 5 well spend hour with a fucking sad ending ;___;

BTW: someone should make another game called "to the moon" aka. crypto-coin simulator 2016, and shill it on Veeky Forums

Start at just over a dollar, dip to 30 cents, bounce and stabilize near 45 cents.

you wish. it will be $3

>to the moon

I see you are a man of excellent taste user.

This one is on my watchlist for sure. Top 5 coinmarketcap at launch 4 sure.

Yeah he just named one of the big design flaws in ETH.
Question is how big is the potential market for the kind of provably correct smart contracts he is talking about. Id say its pretty niche.
Thx for posting though.

it's a very esoteric and patrician altcoin for the discerning investor

Just read the IPO thread. None of their claims are in any way accurate. Here's a brief list of refutations:
* They claim to be the first decentralized crowd funding platform - Lighthouse currency exists and was released -years- before WAVES -- there are probably even more platforms than this too.
* They claim to be the first decentralized stock exchange platform. Incorrect. Everything that they suggest was already possible using Counterparty and other projects.
* They claim to be the first decentralized exchange. Incorrect. Numerous exchanges already exist such as Bitsquare, Bithalo, Coinffeine, etc. (There were practical decentralized exchanges in 2013.)

It seems to me like they're aiming mostly at asset exchange so let me just give you some advice as one of the people who worked on early decentralized exchange systems -- don't invest. There is no money to be made in this sector as centralized systems work better for the end user and decentralized systems offer no benefits over centralized systems other than security which is invisible to the user.

If you like high risk trading you might be able to make money on the initial pump if you buy in early enough but this is definitely not a long term investment.

i actually disagree strongly.

I think this russian has the balls to pull it off.
the angle is basically to not reinvent the wheel but do it all quickly. and get fiat gateways open as fast as possible.

if he can take over some of the remittance game with all this fiat shenanigans then it could be huge.

why the fuck does everyone have such a hard on for smart contracts?

it's just fucking code? nobody is going to use your shitty cyptocurrency just so they can run some code.

if it's actually useful, the banks will develop their own networks and business will use that. nobody apart from autists gives a fuck about decentralization.

Let the autists figure it out, you can use it when it just werks. good coping until then.

>who cares about decentralisation

I think we are all coming to realise just how important it is.

>lol i can't address any of the points so i'll post a snide comeback lol

fuck off

why? there is no accountability with decentralisation, who do you sue if something goes wrong and costs you millions? how does a business quantify this risk?

The beauty of it is there is no one to sue.

businesses want accountability. who will make the call to use a system where they are left with no recourse if something goes wrong? and for what, to save a few dollars in bank fees?

i don't get it. would you buy a new car with no warranty if it meant you could do it anonymously?

Just put 3 BTC on WAVES.

This ride is gonna be EPIC

Nothing goes wrong though, its a blockchain, you can rely on it to behave a certain way

is your claim really that nothing will ever go wrong? why the need for lightning networks? why do new currencies/networks keep getting developed, each one claiming to be better than the previous? what happens if adoption outpaces development?

i think my initial questions also remain unanswered. aren't smart contracts just code (i'm not trolling - it's an honest question)? what's stopping banks doing the same thing, without forcing their customers to use volatile cryptocurrencies?

I'm new to this board and crypto-currencies so what would you recommend as a good broker to go through for trading?

>is your claim really that nothing will ever go wrong?
yes
>what's stopping banks doing the same thing, without forcing their customers to use volatile cryptocurrencies
the volatile cryptocurrency is the whole point of the things. you're basically asking why won't banks voluntarily dissolve themselves

poloniex

>yes
lel. can you name ONE other piece of popular software that hasn't had bugs?

>the volatile cryptocurrency is the whole point of the things
ok, how does a business benefit from using volatile cyptos vs fiat? more to the point, why does almost every business that claims to accept cyptos partner with an exchange and actually get paid in fiat (ie - they don't really accept cryptos, the exchange does, and they pay the company in USD/whatever)?

try using it before you pass judgement. cryptos are usually very open and are becoming more user friendly. waves seems to be one of the most user friendly looking i have seen so far

I'll admit I was skeptical of waves at first. I bought in with the 20% day one bonus and did a few bounties figuring I'd dump asap for a quick profit. The more I see out of the waves team the more I think it is a long hold though. The lite web client looks and functions amazingly well, the main chain is running smoothly and the devs actually seem to know what they are doing. They're making the lisk launch look like amateur hour.

i have a bitcoin wallet and i've played with mining alt coins. i don't think anything is as 'user friendly' as fiat.

i'm not against cryptos, i just don't 'get' the fundamental driver behind them.

What are you having difficulty with?

i don't see why business would adopt it over fiat. nor what's stopping banks from creating their own networks for smart contracts.

never trust a russian with my money.

>Raised $14 million in the ICO
>in the ICO
>ICO occurred in the past

what's the point now? The first tier ponzi bracket has already closed out.

the main features have not been implemented yet.

the ICO was to generate funds to implement them, such as fiat gateways, decentralised exchange, voting etc.

each time one of these features is implemented the price will go up.

waves has the possibility to take over the remittance market in a big way, so the market cap could be billions easily.

that's still 50X profit to anyone buying when it hits exchanges.

waves could be the next ETH.

>tfw you wish you invested more while the ICO was still ongoing... guess its still better then being a nocoiner..

>waves has the possibility to take over the remittance market in a big way, so the market cap could be billions easily.

or it could be nothing as the 'next big thing' comes out and replaces it, much like waves is pitched to replace eth.

ps. nobody is using eth either, despite the shilling.

if there is value in smart contracts the banks will build their own systems.

by all means, buy into waves if you think it'll go up and ride the hypetrain, but let's not pretend there's anything of actual value here.

waves is nothing like ETH the OP is confused.

waves wants to concentrate on asset markets and currency exchange, it's not in the business of developing it's own scripting language or anything like that.

waves is also russian, and they will be taking in some of the russian currency craziness.

waves could be as big as BTC for moving money around, protecting from inflation etc.

Getting real close now.
Post your ico investments gentlemen.

sitting on 5500 here, small time i know, should have bought more...

shalom brother

at what price would you guys dump? is 10x even realistic?

I'd say its very realistic. I'd say a 3x opening is more than likely, and if enough people believe and the devs keep at it, 10x in the next year is extremely likely.

I missed this ICO. Made a bundle on Lisk and I bought into Rise, though.

Maybe I'll buy after the inevitable pump on release.

Thing is sasha says they are going to concentrate on business and run it like a business.

Expect to see a lot of money flow through the platform, this guy is connected and knows what he's doing

>WAVES is a coin
stopped reading here. thought it would be something cool like maybe a video game but it sounds fucking trash

I put 2 btc in but I'm not sure my account is verified properly (never received a verification email) so I'll have to see if I can actually get my coins...

How is waves any different from BTC then?

Are Polo adding it tomorrow?

>there is no accountability with decentralisation, who do you sue if something goes wrong and costs you millions?
who do you sue when banks crash the entire economy with no survivors?

>i don't see why business would adopt it over fiat. nor what's stopping banks from creating their own networks for smart contracts
The whole idea behind smart contracts and cryptos is that they aren't in control of one entity. This type of proprietary bank owned blockchain completely defeats the purpose. If you're talking about a private corporate blockchain used only internally then that's something else all together, and would make sense with your idea.

9440 waves

Anyone who can day trade and read charts should sell if it goes 2.5x ico on launch. If you dont understand that shit then just hold long. it'll be bigger than what eth currently is in a year.

Eth might've grown bigger by that point though.

Short of it is this is the biggest thing since eth

did release get delayed?

with 99.99% certainty it wont start trading today.

Most likely tommorow, but might be a couple more days.

I'm from Australia, where do I buy this currency? and will it trade back to AUD>

Does anyone know anything about when Waves will hit exchanges?

If so, source please.

It will depend on the exchanges themselves apparently

Sasha: exchanges have fullnode code arleady, they are integrating

they've come further than i initially thought, so maybe early tomorrow gmt is my guess.

Alright, thanks

Bamp

What do you think the price will be?

5 bucks

Where the fuck are exchanges?
What bullshit this is?
It has bigger potential than etherium!
I'll have to postpone my lambo buying for now

Fuck you Sasha you are killing the price!

From what he said, the code is already released to exchanges, its up to the exchanges to implement them

Fucking ruskie should release statement about current situation , but he chooses to be fuckboi

I'm in the ICO panel, how do I transfer my waves here to my wallet? And where do I download a wallet? Or can I just transfer my waves here to an exchange when they open?

Make a new address in the liteclient. On your ICO account you can enter the address. Funds will be send there some time later (process happens once a day).

Where's the liteclient?

Damn this is fucking abysmal, no idea why I gave my money to these guys. There's no app to start in the liteclient zip, and when I try to open the index it takes me to a broken firefox link with no pictures.

just get it from the chrome appstore, what's so hard to understand?

>Chrome

well we all just got scammed didnt we

thanks OP. just added coin to my list of filters

You're an idiot m8

no it wasnt faggot

It totally was. This is a contamination board. I remember /g/ being filled with cryto threads before Veeky Forums was created.

yes it was newfag

it was made contain the great DOGE threads on /g/

Then fags like you started coming here and saying

>how do i become le rich man?
>turn $500 into $1000000?
>memestocks
>pennypumps
>working for the banks general thread

WHEN IS IT COMING TO A FUCKING EXCHANGE HOLY SHIT

It'll be on Bittrex in a few minutes
