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!
I do not think it's necessary to compare these two coins. In any case, both projects are a reliable option for investment. But still I'm confident in the advantages of BTC - it's the real king of the crypto market, which continues its stable development.
