What in the hell are you people doing?
If you follow me on twitter it's no secret that I am not a fan of the new "Waves Platform" and literally shake my head every time I see someone hype it. The entire idea and implementation of Waves is a complete clone of BitShares. Not only is it completely unoriginal but they (Waves) didn't even do it close to as well as BitShares (the first)!! Promoting the use of Waves is basically holding a big sign that says "I've only been here for a little bit and have never heard of BitShares!"
So from what I can tell @wavesplatform is literally just a total rip-off of @Bitshares #bitshares #waves #UnoriginalBastards What a joke!!!

There is nothing that Waves is capable of doing that BitShares hasn't already been doing for 20m blocks now! On-top of that it is not truly decentralized and has plenty of shortcomings! As highlighted in this post Waves Platform order fulfillment is actually completely centralized!
Waves is not a DEX. their order matching is centralized and they have only 1 trustless asset (WAVES core token)

Why the price difference?
Currently we have the market valuing Waves Platform at 3x the current total value of BitShares which to me is just a display of sheer stupidity and something I find quite disappointing. Could you imagine the market valuing a poorly executed Bitcoin clone at 3x its value? Just the idea is laughable.
My advice to those who own Waves: SELL it, Buy BitShares and then later on we can pretend that you weren't really dumb enough to fall for a crappy v0.9 clone of BitShares for 3x the price per market share! ;D
