WAVES is a decentralized platform ​that uses custom blockchain tokens to represent value. Tokens can be issued by any platform user, ​and can be transferred, swapped, and traded ​on​ an integrated decentralized exchange. Tokens may represent a share in a crowdfunding project, financial instrument, ​or any other ​item​ with inherent value. waves represents the gravity which brings communities together.

Inspired by NXT cryptocurrency, WAVES is a new platform, being coded from scratch and aiming to become for colored coins what ETH is becoming for scripting. Traditional centralized crowdfunding and trading platforms rely on a ​third​ party ​to maintain​ the platform, thus ​sacrificing​ transparency and becoming prone to failures due to over-centralization. Blockchain technology allows ​the elimination of any centralized point of failure, storing all the platform data on all system nodes in a distributed fashion. It makes fully decentralized trading, crowdfunding and value transfer possible.

Some features of waves

Mass market adoption

WAVES is built using a two-tier architecture, where the end-user client takes the form of a browser plug-in that can be installed with a couple of clicks. Upon installation a user is presented with a full-scale decentralized financial platform, right in the browser, similar to traditional online banking/trading/crowdfunding platforms.

Custom token issuance, transfer, and decentralized trading

Custom tokens can designate a share in crowdfunding project, a game token, can represent fiat currencies on blockchain. The scope of cryptotokens usage is limited by the users’ imagination only, and may go well beyond representing financial instruments on blockchain.Here Users will be able to issue their token, transfer it to other users, and trade it on a decentralized exchange. The next stage would be the stock and other financial instruments issuance by established companies, fully compliant with local laws. By providing asset to asset decentralized trading we will be offering a decentralized exchange which can be used for financial instruments clearing and trading.
