Doges was a great coin and being used as an additional trading pair for coins that is price under 1 sats, While waves still has more room for improvement and waves will be a great contender for the fastest blockchain next to ethereum. Their just need to fix the common misconception of other people against waves as a scammer haven blockchain due to its easy to use token making.
Not what it seem right now after TRON and EOS exist which devs see to be more efficient.
TRX is just a smart contract platform for hyips like token. i haven't seen any good project using their platform.
As for EOS it will be forever stay in the shadow of ETH,
Waves can be a good alternative to ETH due to its nice looking and perfectly working DEX platform.
Yes, that's the way it is, most tokens are only in a safe zone, while Waves are on a different level. I don't know for sure Waves will be able to beat the token tokens with all the features that are available at this time. Maybe soon there will be good news for everyone to be able to switch to Waves.
