Waves NG - has been released today making Waves the fastest blockchain in cryptocurrency. 1000+ transactions per second compared to 3 for bitcoin. I'm tired of waiting for 3 days for my bitcoin transaction to go through, and paying $30 USD. Bitcoin was the first and is well known with the media coverage it receives. Usually the first coin people buy. It's time for a new coin to take over, some day. I think Waves is the best!
Bitcoin and Waves are difficult to compare, because these two cryptocurrency come from one-sided categories.
The advantage between them is of course staying with bitcoin. Comparing the two is the same as comparing earth and sky, or elephants and ants.
