Although it sounds cool, I cannot see much difference to how things are now, except for a new name. Maybe a new name is what the exchange needs to get some life. I cannot help to think why would you want to bring all those services together (which in a way is already together)? It sounds very much like preparation for the sale of the Waves DEX as a unit to an outside party. Maybe I am wrong.

I think there will be more movement if they will not be a DEX only. The trading right now is very dull in Waves DEX and very few assets are really performing. You can count it even with your hands. Let us see if this move will make a difference on their business and what factors are gonna be integrated with their new face?

Also, if you have account in Waves DEX, can you still access the same account with same keys if it's already a combination of decentralized and centralized features of an exchange? I wanted to know as I still have account in Waves DEX.

Is it time to show Sasha the respect he deserves?

Thank you so much for that info. Import the old account and access it via the seed phrases and I can use the new exchange? And with the new exchange, what details do you need to log in or sign up, if I will create a new one?

Hello. Thanks for your interest related to the Waves products.

Answering your question about the Waves DEX, it won't be available anymore.

Kind regards,

How do you log into the new DEX with your existing account? I only see the option to create a new account.

Hello. KYC is currently saved only for wEUR/wUSD input/output. No implementation is planned for the next six months.

Best wishes,

Decentralization has failed in all top projects. Back to Feudal elite global surveillance, very dystopian for all young who are alive today. No privacy and anoynymity of capital anymore when cash disappears.

Waves should remain anonymous to trade, it further proves my point that something bad has happened here, but Waves is not the only one with this problem.

They solutions are very nice, but unfortunately it is government controlled and centralized in the end.

It is better for price with centralization, because normal people are safe without freedom and personal control. They trust in government, good.

No one on Bitcointalk is protesting this take over in crypto industry, so it already happened and most top teams were probably paid well to partner with government or threathened with sanctions.

This "blockchain" invention was normal citizens only chance for a change in status quo, now they will have 1000 more years of tyranny.

Personally, I came to crypto in 2016 to escape persecution (and the art in Marquise $Museum is a little bit about that), so I am not happy about this development in this industry.

But what does it matter when every windows os has backdoor NSA access and can be monitored directly.

Will the new Waves Exchange and Ride IDE sites be compatible with popular open source browsers, and especially under Linux, and not just corporate ones like Google Chrome?
