Key Takeaways

WAVES hasn’t been experiencing the best of times over the last few years.

The cryptocurrency has suffered a massive fall from its peak, losing 97% of its value since March 2022.

The situation for WAVES worsened in June last year when Binance announced the delisting of WAVES, triggering another sharp decline which, despite a recovery during the market upsurge of late 2024, has continued to this day.

On Feb. 27, 2025, WAVES was worth about $1.55.

Let’s examine our price predictions for WAVES on Feb. 27, 2025. We will also examine Waves’ price history and discuss what it is and does.

Waves Price Prediction

Here are our Waves price predictions, made by CCN on Feb. 27, 2025. Although we take the utmost care with our forecasts, price predictions can often be wrong, especially for something as potentially volatile as crypto.

Minimum WAVES price prediction Average WAVES price prediction Maximum WAVES price prediction
2025 $1 $3.36 $6.57
2026 $2.50 $7 $12
2030 $5 $18 $35

Waves Price Prediction 2025

WAVES is expected to break out of its current downtrend if it holds key support levels and establishes a bullish wave structure. If the anticipated Wave three fully develops, the price could range between $1 and $6.57.

Waves Price Prediction 2026

By 2026, WAVES could enter a broader uptrend, fueled by increased adoption and improving market conditions. If momentum sustains, the price may rise to $12, though failure to break long-term resistances could limit growth to around $7.

Waves Price Prediction 2030

A long-term bullish cycle could push WAVES significantly higher, especially if the crypto market undergoes another major expansion. If WAVES reclaims its previous bullish trajectory, it could hit $35, but a slower adoption curve might keep it to around $18.

Waves Price Analysis

WAVES has been in a prolonged downtrend since its all-time high on March 31, 2022. The price remains below a key descending trendline, while the $1 to $1.30 demand zone has provided strong support.

Elliott Wave analysis suggests the corrective WXY pattern is complete, with an emerging Wave one forming. The RSI is basically neutral but showing signs of recovery, indicating growing buying interest.

A breakout above the trendline could trigger a move toward $2.67 and higher, while failure to hold $1.30 may lead to a retest of the $1 region.

Short-term Waves Price Prediction

The four-hour chart shows an impulsive structure forming, with Wave two finishing at $1.25 on Feb. 6. The first breakout attempt on Feb. 13 was rejected at $1.90, but the price remains above the $1.30 support level.

If the wave count holds, Wave three could extend toward $6.57, with key resistances at $2.67 and $3.36.

However, the WAVES price prediction for the next 24 hours depends on it breaking above the descending trendline and staying above $1.70 for confirmation. A drop below $1 would invalidate the bullish outlook, signaling further downside.

Waves Average True Range

The Average True Range (ATR) measures market volatility by averaging the largest of three values: the current high minus the current low, the absolute value of the current high minus the previous close, and the absolute value of the current low minus the previous close over a period, typically 14 days.

A rising ATR indicates increasing volatility, while a falling ATR indicates decreasing volatility.

Since ATR values can be higher for higher-priced assets, normalize ATR by dividing it by the asset price to compare volatility across different price levels.

On Feb. 27, 2025, WAVES’ RSI was 0.164, implying relatively high volatility.

WAVES Relative Strength Index (RSI): Is WAVES Oversold or Undersold?

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum indicator traders use to determine whether an asset is overbought or oversold.

Movements above 70 and 30 show overbought and oversold conditions, respectively. Movements above and below the 50 line also indicate if the trend is bullish or bearish.

On Feb. 27, 2025, WAVES’ RSI was 47, showing a slightly bearish trend.

CCN Strength Index

The CCN Strength Index combines an array of advanced market signals to measure the strength of individual cryptocurrencies over the last 30 days.

Every day, it assigns a strength score, ranging from 0 to 100, to the top 500 assets by market capitalization on CoinMarketCap, focusing on both trend direction and the intensity of price movements.

  • 0 to 24: Assets exhibit significant weakness, showing signs of sustained downtrend behavior.
  • 25 to 35: The price tends to move within stable bounds with minimal volatility.
  • 36 to 49: Assets begin a stable uptrend but without strong surges.
  • 50 to 59: Consistent growth with moderate price advances, building momentum.
  • 60+: Sharp price movements and high demand indicate stronger volatility and trend shifts.

The index dynamically adapts to rapid changes. For example, an asset experiencing a 100% increase within a short timeframe would see a sharp jump in its score to reflect the intensity of the rise.

However, should that asset stabilize at this new price level, the score will gradually taper down and align with the dampened momentum as the movement normalizes. The same principle applies to rapid declines: a sudden drop will spike the score downward, but as volatility decreases, the score will slowly adjust back up.

On Feb. 27, 2025, Waves scored 43 on the CCN Index, suggesting moderate momentum.

From the Waves Whitepaper

In its technical documentation or whitepaper , Waves describes itself as “a community-based stack of open-source, decentralized technology.”

It says: “Waves (WAVES) aims to enable a collection of decentralized open-source technologies so that developers may create scalable, usable apps. With Waves, an extensive blockchain ecosystem will be developed that offers several capabilities required for corporate adoption.”

What is Waves?

Entrepreneur Sasha Ivanov founded the Waves platform in 2016.

Waves is a blockchain that supports various applications, including decentralized applications (DApps) and smart contracts.

Launched after one of the cryptocurrency industry’s earliest initial coin offerings (ICO), Waves uses a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism.

How Waves Works

Holders of Waves’ WAVES coin can add blocks to the blockchain and help secure the network. People can also buy, sell, and trade it on exchanges.

Is Waves a Good Investment?

It is hard to say. The coin has been around for eight years, and its price has notably decreased since its all-time high in late 2022. 

Considering the negative sentiment around it, especially after Binance’s delisting, the asset could see more dips.

As always with crypto, you should do your own research before deciding whether or not to invest in Waves.

Will Waves go up or down?

No one can really tell right now. While the Waves crypto price predictions are largely positive, price predictions have a well-earned reputation for being wrong. Keep in mind that prices can and do go down and up. 

Should I invest in Waves?

Before deciding whether to invest in Waves, you must research WAVES and other related coins and tokens, such as Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL). Either way, you must also ensure you never invest more money than you can afford to lose.
