I think the otherway around,it just proves the eth network isnt yet ready to be the top crypto coin.

Yes, I think the cryptokitty is a good way to prove the ETH network is good though there is some crowded situations. I also think it is a good way to Let more people know the value of ETH.
Honestly, it is and no matter how bad it was for the increase in gas fees, it was not as bad as if that would have been on the bitcoin network. So far, Ethereum has been doing its best, and what is being experienced is so little that can easily be solved in some little time later on, so I am still very optimistic with the Ethereum network, even though we have plenty of Kittens running around right now.

Here is a chart showing the growth in transaction numbers on the Ethereum network, prior to and since the introduction of CryptoKitties.

Also


Ethereum has approximately 22k pending transactions as can be seen here:

And Bitcoin has over 210k pending transactions as can be seen here:

Youve compare two slow transaction coins,how about compare the two with litecoin or ripple?doesnt make sense if you compare two birds with the same disadvantages

CryptoKittie influenced the ether network on the positive side. Since helped identify the most vulnerable places of the network
I agree with you, the cryptokittie proves that the Etherium network is very reliable not only for ICO tokens distribution, but also for bath tranferring.

I don't know yet all details regarding this kittens, but it's really making the transactions too slow, it can be a good additional features if it will not cause too much delays.
Cryptokittens is a game where you can breed some kittens and then see them grow in size as well as in value in the long run and then you can sell them more than you buy them. It has been the trending game on the Ethereum blockchain right now and people really got so crazy about it and with the huge number of transactions going on, that caused some congestion.

I really would say it has not really been that bad compared to the rate at which bitcoin just keeps getting worst and we just have to still stand by it being the legacy chain which we really want to see succeed, but if something is not done, it is not really going to speak well cause the currency value of it will be lost. However, for Ethereum, a lot can still be done to even make things better and from this little that has happened, that would give room for more improvement.

its funny how we dont hear about cryptokitties anymore, it means the Ethereum network is less clogged up and running smoothly again.
It was good to see this happen because now Devs on Ethereum network can work on troubleshooting and find solutions to these issues.

Ethereum still has great potential, and if Ethereum can handle the number of transfers per second, then Ethereum could rise 10-20 times. Grin

It was interesting for the Ethereum network, it put it under lots of stress and i think the Devs are most likely to fix any issues so that it don't repeat itself.

The case with Cryptokitties showed that Ethereum needs to deal with the network transaction issues.
There was also the blockchain problem being clogged up, and the different network congestions, so these needed to be addressed. Other than that, Ethereum is working fine!

First, the game CryptoKitties revealed the weak spots of the ethereum, but over time it began to increase the popularity of the coin, which led to a significant increase in price. I think in the future will create similar games that will contribute to the growth of the price of the ethereum and its popularity.

I was saying that Cryptokitties will be good for Ethereum when then game just launched. It was obvious that popularity of the game will affect the popularity of ethers. I'm sure that there will be more interesting projects based on Ethereum, thus I'd recommend investing in it.

This is really unbelievable thing how much money people spend on Cryptokitties. In the very beginning I thought that this is just a game. But now this real business with turnout of thousands of dollars.

I guess the kitty-crisis is over isnt it? https://ethgasstation.info/ shows a safelow of 4 again.
Did people stop playing that game and hype settled down or did the ethereum devs did something to improve scalability?

Well, I do not know, because with the advent of Crypto Kitties constantly show that the ethereum network is loaded, these CryptoKitties do not attract me, so I do not see any benefit from them

Here for a good time, not a long time.
It just brings to the forefront the question that's been plaguing the blockchain space concerning scalability. I think that a protocol that utilizes sidechains to do the heavy work associated with these "smart contracts" will be the solution to much of this congestion arising from these robust contracts bloating the main chains. That's just my prediction and that's where I've been placing my investments.

This is possible to a degree already with state channes which can do tasks off chain. you can read more about those in our whitepaper if you'd like to as we will be adopting them in our upcoming ICO.

What will REALLY make the difference is quadratic sharding. these are like sub block chains which can do large numbers of transactions, and then upload the headers only to the main net. it will make a huge difference!

Kitties have accelerated the development which is great and these will take us to Ethereum 2.0 already!! After than, transactions numbers will go nuts and we could quite easily see 10,000 transactions a second by early 2019 which is insane.
