Waves is among my favorite large cap coins at this time. On the other hand Etherium has a lot of competiton coming its way in the forms of waves, Tezos and EOS.

Both are good projects but if your objective is to get profits waves is better, just look at the market caps of both of those coins and you will understand what I say, invest in waves now and get your rewards in the future when a lot more people begin to use waves instead of centralized exchanges.

I do agree, ETH is growing fatser.

How to join RiptideCoin sale, and most ICO’s

By RiptideCoin.

Background Info

Like most ICOs today RiptideCoin run’s on top of the Ethereum blockchain through a smart contract that collects Ethereum tokens and automatically exchanges these for a new token presented by the start-up company in this case RiptideCoin! The entire process happens completely P2P without any banks as middlemen. Every ICO has a different pricing mechanism (price decreases, increases, is fixed, non-existent). You can see our exact details on top of the ICO info page.

1. Register with any Cryptocurrency Exchange

To participate in any ICO, you need cryptocurrencies, usually Ether or Bitcoin, For RiptideCoin you will need Ethereum. You cannot participate in an ICO with fiat currency. If you don’t own cryptocurrencies, you will first need to buy some. The simplest and safest way to buy small amounts for the first time is using coinbase. The best way to buy large amounts of Bitcoin is through online exchanges or also with your bank safely on Coinbase.com Most debit card purchase are instant. For larger amounts, you can transfer money from your bank account to your newly created account with Coinbase. Please note that the registration process might need some days due to strict regulation. If you don’t have a bank account there are other options like buying Bitcoin/Ether from an ATM or locally from other people.

2. Exchange Fiat for Bitcoin or Ether

Once you registered an account with an exchange and the money from your bank account has arrived, you could exchange your EUR, USD, etc. for the cryptocurrency you want to buy. This process takes a few seconds. Your cryptocurrencies will be sent to an online wallet offered by the exchange you registered with.

2. Transfer your Coins from the Exchange to a Blockchain Wallet you Control

Another reason for you to move your coins to a wallet which is under your control is the token sale participation. Unless your exchange offers the possibility to participate in a particular ICO with your online wallet, the general rule is not to send funds from an exchange wallet directly to the ICO since you won’t have access to the new token. This means that if you use a random online wallet to participate in an ICO and send money to the ICO address you won’t receive the tokens you bought!

3. Set up your Wallet

Most token sales like RiptideCoin happen on the Ethereum network. Therefore you will need an Ethereum wallet to participate in the token sale. Not every wallet is suitable for all ICOs. The most user-friendly and widely accepted Ethereum wallets are MetaMask and MyEhterWallet. MetaMask is a plugin for the Google Chrome browser. It is not only a wallet but also a lightweight Ethereum devApp browser. MyEtherWallet is a client-side wallet and does not hold your private keys. It also connects with hardware wallets like the Ledger Nano S or Trezor. Our RiptideCoin ICO is suggesting the MetaMask wallet. That is the best-recommended wallet for participation.

MetaMask is an online type of wallet, and we do not recommend storing large values in it. Use it only for the ICO and then you want to move your funds to a more secure place like a hardware wallet or paper wallet. Don’t forget backing up your wallet Key. Store your 12-word seed in a safe place (not in the cloud). After your wallet is properly setup & backed up send Ether from your online exchange account to your MetaMask wallet.

4. Buy ICO Tokens (RiptideCoin)

Before you proceed make sure to read the general terms of the ICO and the token purchase agreement.

Send ETH to the address specified by us above. Or just follow the checkout process we set up for you using one of the three options then open MetaMask or ETH wallet to get your riptideCoin deposited. If you need to speed up your transactions set a higher gas limit, which is controlled by the Ethereum and or MetaMask/wallet interface. After you send the transaction and get our confirmation there are a couple of scenarios:

1. If paid with MetaMask or directly the tokens will show up automatically in your ” Tokens” tab in your Eth or MetaMask wallet after entering the credentials below.

#2 If paid with BTC, AltCoins or Debit/Credit. You will need to wait for the manual confirmation of your payment and use the information provided to redeem your tokens manually.

My choice is ethereum, because it's the closest one to bitcoin in term of transaction. Because many ICOs related to Ethereum, that will make ethereum demand keep growing and stable. Wave is good too, but it's still fluctuative i think for a moment. But both of the cryptocurrencies are good, just diverse your protofolio.

hold both and become happy in 2018! i do so!
waves quiet cheap right now.

I think Waves has a better concept behind it but its whether or not the devs can get enough exposure. eth is already quite famous where as waves is only known as a unique coin right now

Yes the current popularity of etherum has a much higher rate compared to waves. waves are symbolized as a small stone for etherum. the tendency of many people will definitely choose etherum because of strong beliefs and devs. if waves want to try to be able to compete with etherum then waves must progressively make interesting innovations, such as token system owned by etherum at this time then waves should be able to do it. some innovations can make waves more interesting, it takes some time to get to the Etherum level.

At your place I would choose Ethereum. This is the future! It is expensive now, but with more time, I think it will be more profitable. Sometimes they watch their actions and I think it's worth putting on them.

You shouldn't bother to choose which one is better, because waves and ethereum have their own cons and pros. That's ridiculous to review them as both of them are using for different platforms, if you can grab them. Why not? as you can gain profit much better.
