WAVES Rallies as Sasha Ivanov Gives Hints on Ecosystem to Come

WAVES is seeing higher market prices and renewed optimism as January sell-offs have reversed.

The WAVES platform is preparing for an active year, as recently its founder, Sasha Ivanov, released his vision about the blockchain ecosystem in a blog. He believes that blockchain technologies are on the verge of mainstream adoption, but projects have to really work on presenting visible results and use cases.

"The goal of Waves platform has always been a creation of a blockchain ecosystem targeted at real world applications, addressing the most poignant issues of the ecosystem and providing the “right here right now solution”. We are getting closer to this goal every day," wrote Ivanov.

Recently, WAVES announced it would add gateways to several new digital assets, including Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin Gold to be distributed in an airdrop:

The WAVES new rally may continue for a while, as the platform will present in Vienna and possibly gain more exposure. WAVES tries to straddle the gulf between being a Russian-centric platform, and being a global player.
