Another week, another AMA session with the Waves’ founder Sasha Ivanov. This week, Sasha has prepared some updates on the ecosystem progress, answered lots of questions and had a live dialogue with the community members. This is a short recap, the full recording of the weekly AMA from 12/5/23 can be found here.
Q: Do you think the attack on Puzzle Lend will affect the Waves community?
Sasha: I don't think it will affect it, as the damage was less than $70K and it will only help to strengthen Puzzle's lending protocol!
Q: I heard that you do the audit by yourselves, without hiring an external company. Do you think this is reasonable?
Sasha: Yes, because this is just the step we need to understand the situation. However, if you would like to recommend a good organization that can do the audit, we would be happy to contact them.
Q: Is there at least an approximate completion date for the audit?
Sasha: Not at the moment, unfortunately.
Q: I noticed that -WXG tokens differ significantly in price from -PPT tokens.
Sasha: To withdraw the former, you need to wait an indefinite amount of time, which does not suit all users, the latter can be withdrawn immediately, hence the increased demand and the higher price.
Q: Can you tell us when their prices will equalize?
Sasha: Their prices will be equalized gradually in line with the-WXG token buyback, and then with the launch of the WX gateways, their prices will finally equalize.
Q: So all -WXG token holders can wait for the gateways to launch and not worry about the safety of their assets?
Sasha: I can't promise an exact time frame (may be months, may be a year), but the possibility of a withdrawal will appear, but they can also sell them right now, although we don't recommend it.
Q: Can you explain how Waves 2.0 will be useful for WAVES holders? What will it be like?
Sasha: Its main distinguishing feature is the second blockchain with seamless transition, and transaction processing is much faster due to the use of ZK. Also the EVM implementation, i.e. compatibility with Ethereum smart contracts is also seamless with the Waves blockchain. And I also think we should be focusing on L0 instead of L2, at a more basic blockchain level, and thinking about solving scalability problems at that level.
Q: Any ETA on that?
Sasha: I would say before the new year, possibly during this summer.
