I think it is a good thing pointing to a bad thing - > the Ethereum scalability problem, which is not going to be solved soon. And if Ethereum can't solve it, then neither any of the platforms from the same generation would do it soon.

If they're not gonna solve scalability soon, Waves will overtake eth when they will launch smart contracts. For now let's see how WavesNG will turn

Cryptokitties did a good thing for Ethereum network, even the fact it cause heavy traffic on Ethereum network and long queue of transaction. On the other side of stories, it was promoting ETH skilfully at digital world.

although the cryptokitties are good but will be very influential when the coin is promotion where the promotion of cryptokitties disrupts the ethereum network and disrupts the transaction process of the users. but if it does work I think it will be good.

Right now ,it's clogging the network and forcing people to up gas prices but in the future ,do you guys think having a game that popular (crypto-pokemons ?)could be a good thing for ethereum ?

popular game = always good
its not a question

i hope that there will be more and more interesting things
maybe some game like hearthstone but where you can earn real money in crypto!
only by the number of the players in the game you can have a good active blockchain =]

as much as this is kinda a random "shit-thread", the hive collective has actually come up with some good points Cheesy

-SCALABILITY. things like this MAKE eth consider it, like one user said "imagine 50 games like this on ETH"
-Ponzi. people really will buy into anything in hopes to get rich, even if no purpose?
-Exposure. whether or not this "project" is worthless, its brings exposure to ETH

mass adoption of all coins helps holders

i dont care about that kitties ,doggies,ratties or what other games that
would be created by cryptos.what i only care is the circulation of market and the
price movement of the coins so trading is more functional to all users.

I think it's a good thing that it is stress testing the network. Hopefully the ETH Devs can solve the scaling problem with some kind of nano transactions that help speed up the network.

When Casper comes along it may help but till then we will have to suck it up and put up.

Because of this stupid cat, eth has stopped trading. I still do not understand how easy it is to make money so surely my cheating friend has lost a lot of eth for this cat.

I hated cryptokitties because it ruined the whole ETH network for some days and many of my orders and transactions were blocked. Lost nearly 1 ETH in this hassle. I dont know how the game works but thank god ETH team did what they had to do to clear the clog.

I lost 1 eth to this extremely silly thing. I transferred money to my purse and did not receive any money in Cryptokitties. Because of Cryptokitties, eth had to stop trading for some time.

Cryptokitties is good thing in my opinion. It is gives ethereum a new econimic cycle and its like item on mafia wars at zynga. We can not say its only a picture. Because the reallity talked people loves digital asset and cryptokitties is on of digital asset its like a badge

Yeah it's a good thing and all but clearly ethereum network is not ready yet for this type of applications, it needs to scale better first

should it stop? quite boring but interesting at first

It can't be stopped. This is a ponzi game work in decentralized blockchain. How can you stop it?
If people demand, play, pay this game then why should it bother you?

It's a good thing. Bitcoin had similar tests and passed. Remember 1 sat spam attacks? Bitcoin survived from them. Ethereum will survive from this attack too. People prefer Ethereum transactions because they are cheaper. If miners need to charge more to accept transactions that would hurt Ethereum. Developers will find a way to fix this problem.

It's really bad thing. It is a Total bubble. Does not worth anything, just based on a mindless bubble. Just think, What will happen when people stop buying, because there are so many kitties already. It has exponential growth just like a bacteria so prices will go down as kitties will produce kitties for nothing.

Of course good. It shows the power of blockchain and its mass adiption soon. If even games are moving to blockchain so mass adoption will come soon

Luckily the transactions have cooled down again. I hope it is better to use the ETH network again. I hope it doesn't get clogged anymore. My kitties took over 3 days to breed because of the transaction being stuck
