What are the risks of holding WAVES?
Cryptocurrencies including WAVES are highly volatile: prices can move sharply in either direction within hours, and past performance is not a guide to future returns. WAVES is currently trading 99.58% below its all-time high of $62.706, reached on Mar 31, 2022.
A meaningful share of WAVES's reported trading volume comes from lower-trust exchanges, so headline volume figures may overstate real, organic demand. This is not investment advice.

How to buy Waves (WAVES)
- Pick a liquid market. HTX currently reports the highest WAVES volume among tracked exchanges (~$1.60M in 24h); compare order books on a couple of venues before committing funds.
- Check the Trust Score. Review Waves's Trust Score, where available, to gauge how much of that volume looks organic before sizing a position.
- Place the order. Fund the account, choose a market or limit order, and confirm the trading pair matches the WAVES you intend to buy.
- Self-custody if holding. For anything beyond short-term trading, withdraw WAVES to a wallet you control rather than leaving it on the exchange.
Waves FAQ
Waves (WAVES) is priced at $0.265659 as of Oct 08, 2026, with a market cap of $31.14M and a rank of #517 among tracked cryptocurrencies. Over the past 24 hours the price has moved -1.63%, on reported volume of $5.08M.
Waves's Trust Score is 55/100 (grade C+, "Moderate"), based on 2 of 5 planned signals CoinPaprika currently computes: liquidity and volume authenticity. Individually, liquidity scores 88/100 and volume authenticity scores 22/100. This composite reflects market structure rather than a guarantee of project safety, and updates as exchange conditions change.
WAVES trades on 160 markets tracked by CoinPaprika. The highest-volume venues are HTX ($1.60M 24h volume), Indoex ($1.54M 24h volume), and BingX ($1.22M 24h volume). Compare fees, available pairs, and each exchange's Trust Score before choosing where to buy.
WAVES's all-time high is $62.706, reached on Mar 31, 2022, and its current price of $0.265659 sits 99.58% below that peak. CoinPaprika does not publish an all-time low for comparison, so the all-time high remains the clearest long-term price benchmark available for WAVES.
WAVES's circulating supply is estimated at 117.21M WAVES, derived by dividing its $31.14M market cap by its $0.265659 price. CoinPaprika does not publish a directly-reported circulating supply figure for every coin, so this is a calculated estimate, not an on-chain count.
CoinPaprika scores WAVES's reported volume authenticity at 22/100, a volume-weighted average of each exchange's trust rating (high, medium, or low) across every market reporting a WAVES price. A meaningful share of that volume comes from lower-trust exchanges, so treat headline volume figures with caution. This is one of 5 planned Trust Score signals and updates as exchange trust ratings change.
