Shockwaves

Shockwaves feels built for the fast-moving, attention-driven side of crypto rather than for sober everyday use. By our assessment, it is a cryptocurrency, so the main promise is the usual one: moving value in a digital form that can be traded or held. That also means the usual limits, especially volatility and the fact that many such coins never become more than a market story. In practice, the name does a lot of the work, which is common in this corner of the field. Shockwaves sits near the speculative, community-led end of the spectrum, where the label matters almost as much as the code.
