I think the waves platform should be of interest to this community. It has an already functioning decentralized exchange. I've traded on it and while right now it has low liquidity and a very simple client, it is fast, cheap, and decentralized. The implications to me as a trader are significant, as far as some of the companies and technology this had the potential to replace. I have written on here my opinion on the shortcomings of Bitcoin, and I think waves just might the answer. Anyone else into this? Disclaimer: I'm long waves and miner reward tokens.
Waves is a good platform and functions well. No complaints here. Been a bag holder until the huge spike then I sold for huge profits. Got back in again a few days ago actually.
