So i know it's the world of cryptocurrency, plus it's the internet but I seriously underestimated the impact CryptoKitties would have. It's proper booming! I'm assuming it will be a fad but still, fair play and credit where it's due!

Why people buy these kitties?

I am still confused by these kitties. I still don't know what they are or their purpose really and why so many people are into them that they even jam the ETH network.

These types of games are what people would want because they can easily earn something. It cannot be controlled, I've seen the game and there are many people playing it. And now I am irritated because of the slow network because of the game.

This game can be a game of the future. But I find it really annoying because it has congestion the network. Hope developers soon resolve this situation

Now I am curious what this game has that could bring down the second trusted altcoin in the crypto world! I've been aiming to buy BTC or ETH for two days now but due to the blockchain congestion that's been running for days now, I can't find a teller that has funds! Undecided

Hope Vitalik and the team could do something about this.

I don't know what to say but literally it annoys me, the whole ethereum network is clogged by the kitties, yes they are cute you can earn by the new kittens, but fir the token holders who wants to buy and sell off their tokens the gas is going crazy gwei needs up to 50 or 60 unlike before gwei is only 4. The whole ethereum industry is affected hoping they will do something about the gas price.

Crypto-world is affected with this kittie game how i wish it will end as soon as possible. I don't want to waste more fees for trading on etherdelta and some transactions are nowhere to be found. Although i like kitties in real world but this digital cats really caused a big problem. Im hoping they will find a solution to dispatch this kitties.

This is insane and how can this whole crypto world be taken seriously after something like that?

You never know. It could be some small application like this that gets the masses to use it.

This is the money game in the vanilla sky. It looks cute but what are profits you will get this is unclear thing. Maybe I am too old. For some teenagers it will be all right to get some dollars just by playing.

it's really nice, if it didn't cause problems in the network...but I get a smile about the idea of crypto-kittens

Crazy A. The whole network if unusable ATM.

Plus: Ethereum doesnt work, bitcoin doesnt work, i do not know what else to do.

Bitcoin is going up to the sky, but it is unsable, so what is the sense of seeing it going over twenty thousand dollars if we are not able to send a single transaction without having to wait hours to get it confirmed?

i am getting tired of this.

Have you noticed that since cryptokitties was launched the whole network is more slow? Is this a coincidence?

Yes i feel the same. All network is very slow. So how to solve this problem?
I am tired to wait small transaction in etherium for longer time rather than before.
It is normally send just one minute but now. Crazy.

Because of these Crypto Kitties, we have seen the vulnerabilities of Ethereum and ERC20-based tokens. It created scaling issues to the blockchain causing delays in all transactions and congestion of most exchanges. Hope they remedy this soon or risk of ERC20-based coins falling in prices.
Bitcoin seems to benefit from this though. Look at its soaring price.

I'm convinced it will be a fad! It's a poor version of a tamogotchi which was once the 'in' thing, they tried to re-release it not too long ago and it bummed out. Once people get past the hype, they wont want to be playing a 90s game where every movement is a microtransaction.

It's really highlighted how vulnerable Ethereum is though and I'm sure those who have recently been saying BTC will burst and Ether will be the future king have gone back under their rocks.

Ultimately blockchain isnt designed for games but the scalability really isnt there at current times ... interesting times ahead

Look, personally I'm not against the microtransactions, but only MICRO
If cryptokittens were created on some blockchain with really FIXED MICRO fees (like 1 cent or smaller) — they would be a great game!

But paying 5-8 bucks for every action.. come on guys, this is not funny at all.
I can't pay such price for stupid game, it's ridiculous.

Anyway, despite on Ethereum network issues last weeks I still think that kitties is a great case for all the world. It shows the great idea based on a poor fundament.
It reveals many problems of Ethereum and cryptocurrencies in general.

The prices are starting to stagnate right now though, so we should see a decrease in number of transactions going through the platform. But still it was a crazy start for such a "meaningless" game (in my peoples eyes, i myself found it to be very interesting as an experiment on ethereum).

The hellbis with those kitties.
I have been in their website and I cannot still understand the concept of it.
This should be fixed very fast. People are getting angry with how transactions are going on.
Hell, I am trying to buy one coin from etherdelta and i was like snobbed and didnt receive anything.
I shouldve been at profit now.

i hope people can stop join cryptokitties because it makes ethereum network bad i now using

ethereum blockchian is very inconvenience . we need to pay more fee for trading

Indeed, why do people use cryptokitties, if they themselves create inconvenience? Or is it all the same done in order to show the weaknesses of the ethereum Huh

please can someone clarify this new concept for me kitties and please teel me how do they relate to ether? are they a good thing or a bad thing? can someone please clarify?

It's pretty simple, the game is extremely popular and every move whether trading, breeding, buying is a token maneuvre on the Ethereum blockchain. Last I heard Kitties were 15% of all ETH transactions.
