yes i agree, and i have the same think with you, many project using ethereum for platform their project.

Smart contracts. Ethereum remains the only truly viable solution for implementing these. No other smart contract platform has proven its utility, and none has the level of adoption that Ethereum does.

Thus I would say that ethereum is better than waves

Any coins cant beat other coin just because they have in common I probably agree or would say that this coin can beat that if it dont have common that is much better on that in the case of Eth its platform and project are not be compared on waves so I would not say that it can be or can beat it . Just like btc and eth has a different platform so it can be beat if it could be mire better.

but many says Ethereum will be the next Bitcoin.
so Ethereum is still good.
we can't say about the future. Ethereum will always survive

Yes it could happen because waves has taken the leaps very fast as compared to ethereum. The founder of waves has taken the business very seriously and the waves platform might just open up new doors to ICO management as well. They have already done a good job by allowing users to create their own tokens and do the things like airdrop. This is being liked by many users, investors and people around us which brings more investment into waves. The waves was very thoroughly assessed by everyone when it was first launched and also it was the first of its kind to offer the tokens and custom additions after the ethereum. Once the platform gets equipped with more token the waves is gonna be better than ethereum and new way of investment for us.

Only your merits can speak for yourself, however if you think no one can surpass ETH then you are mistaken, by using your sports analogy, many people tought that no one will surpass Joe Montana many people refused to believe Tom Brady was better but with the last super bowl many people have given up and recognized Brady as the best.

It seems to me that the ethereum is more promising

Well I guess this indeed a opinion or just a fake news . Just for these day , I dont think waves can compete with Ethereum since this coin is increasingly rapidly and continue to grow and compete to BTC .

Waves has some advantages, like:
- cheap micro payments
- integrated DEX (however still with very low trade volume)
- easy to develop tokens

Disadv.:

- lack of smart contract (incoming)
- no lock-up for trade while ICO is still realized (when you want to make a token sale on DEX)
- depth of the market (shorter)

However, it may be one of the platforms for the future that will be in decision to make ICOs.

More on the side of ethereum because I think he is a valuable coin. Because smart contract owned ethereum and The security is pretty good. But waves I don't think is bad. They just need a little innovation to be considered one of the valuable coins to mine
