Though I like to compare. But this comparison is not fair, because Ethereum is far far way better than WAVES, So here comparison no needs!
Waves was a very potentially coin, most of the people though WAVES will hit 100 USD in 2018, it will surpass NEO's popularity, WAVES platform will be bigger and blah blah blah! But the reality is WAVES is becoming a normal coin, nothing else! Though the crypto market is suffering but still WAVES lost their rank and trust!
That's the reality for now but waves is still a good coin so it still has a chance to be more develop and of course the value will rise.
The market now is a big hindrance for the price increase, the bearish market does not help because only few and the strong coins will have a little growth at this stage.
