50000000 coins are in wallets for leasing. Don't worry about volume, volume can go up in a matter of minutes.
This... and because Waves is crowded out with all the noise in crypto. There's just so many coins competing for dollars and BTC that it's hard to push through. I still believe in Waves, but it's a loooooong term hold. Meanwhile, leasing gives me a small passive income.
This Burger King thing could be the catalyst though. If successful, it could lead other companies to do something similar which drives more attention to the platform.
May I ask you how much you earn per week by leasing. A lot of people say like 1% per week but when I check the calculators it's more like 0,1% per week. I'm still unsure about leasing my waves because I don't to lease my waves for more then a month just to earn the transaction fee.
Your infoswould realy help a lot
I ran a node for 2 months. The ROI was abysmal. Like really bad. There isn't very much transaction volume..... on my 10k Waves i had running the node, over the course of 2 months, counting all the MRT i received, I netted (since I had to pay for server space) ~4 waves. So muuuuch much closer to 0.0001% than the 1% promised by Sasha, and a far, far cry away from the $2-3k/month Sasha also promised to node runners.
Now it's worse. They added the ability to use *any* token as a transaction fee. So any terrible token could be used, you don't even have to use Waves anymore.
Broken promises on ROI for leasing, very low node support <150 total nodes, very low user support <100k funded wallets, very bad marketing and there you go. That's my take.
