After a long anticipated update to the Lisk platform, many people are stocking up at what is still considered a reasonable price providing it's being compared to the likes of Ethereum. Lisk's essentially a platform where you can create dapps (decentralized application) that runs entirely on it's own side chain with the added benefits of Lisk Core (main chain). This basically means each dapp created on this platform doesn't interfere with any other dapp or the main chain. Therefore any tokens created on the dapps themselves for instance, don't require Lisk to send them to their corresponding wallets, unlike Ethereum dapps with ERC-20 tokens, requiring you to have Ethereum balance in order to transfer the tokens to account for the transaction/miner fee.
Also, Lisk is a platform predominantly created using the JavaScript programming language which again is a great advantage considering the widespread popularity of JavaScript. That and JavaScript seems to be the first port of call for many modern developers or anyone new coming into coding which only drives more momentum on the potential adoption of the Lisk.
I'm by no means any expert in the crypto space but have a strong passion for what it's trying the achieve and the opportunities it creates. Lisk in particular caught my attention and seems a great enhancement by utilizing the current benefits of blockchain technology in a user friendly way.
