What the hell are Crypto kitties?

Dogecoin 2.0.

With genetic mutation feature (makes it a game) and more huggable like Beannie Babies. More feminine (and lots of effeminate geeks like cats too) so brings in a wider demographic.

It’s cute like Angry Birds and playable but in a less violent, more on collectibles, and farming (like Farmville) meme.

As far as I can tell, the kitties aren’t fungible so they can’t be used as money.

It currently stresses the transaction volume scaling capacity of the Ethereum design. This might be a boom for EOS or even perhaps for Ethereum (at the detriment of EOS) if this forces Vitalik and/or Raiden to a scaling solution faster.

I read some topics on reddit about crypto kitties and some people that they sold their kitties for 250ETH? WTF?
What is this ?

Crypto kitties is a game based that used ethreum network, there are lot of people playing this game but due to this the network has been clog and not functioning well.
With this kitties manages to shutdown the network which took a lot of transaction to be halted along the way.

I have no clue what it is, but I am 100% sure it is the reason why the Ethereum network is bery slow at the moment. I need to pay 50 Gwei in order to have a normal speed transaction. Even with that Etherdelta is giving errors.

You are right, this game devours 15% of the ether network, and already as the second day the ether network got up. I can not imagine if we allow several such projects to be launched simultaneously, we will bury the ether forever.

I didn't know it could take up that much in that short time span..looks like it's easy for some competition to attack the eth network with projects like this.

My thought exactly, Puppies and dinosaurs anyone? I want a Tyrannosaurus REX Now!

I read some topics on reddit about crypto kitties and some people that they sold their kitties for 250ETH. the process is you will buy cats using Ethereum and breed them so you can earn by selling or trading them and also you will need to install metamask wallet on your pc or laptop to be able to get started. I also heard about it yesterday and never tried play this game but it is now trending .

Guys do you believe that Ethereum went down because of these crypto cats game? I dont understand how it is possible. I mean many people still invest on Ethereum but they say in dumped because of this game. There should be another reasons.

The market seems to be stagnating right now, with the cheapest cats going for around 0.03 eth. Since the gas + fee to breed a cat costs around that same value, we'll probably see a decrease in ethereum's platform demand.

Indeed, the cost of ethereum's may decrease, because of this game.
I was also interested to see Catcoin - created in 2015. Interestingly there is a connection between them, or I do not see the obvious Huh

They are just stupid virtual pets created and traded by stupid persons. They are clogging Ethereum network and making us loose money.
I wonder what are these people thinking when they buy these stupid kitties with these high prices.

This shit should stop they are killing the ethereum network

I'm sure you understand that this will not solve the issue at all.
Okay, let's say tomorrow CryptoKitties dev team decide to close their game.

But one day later someone can create a similar viral thing. A game, gambling or some other Ponzi scheme.
And this will shut down Ethereum network again.

Ethereum team should solve this on their side, DAP developers are not the root of this problem.

I will not be surprised if there is a cryptocoyote devouring all the cryptokitties, still I find this phenomenon quite intriguing.

Dev team is really great, I seen that this game is a test in order for them to make adjustment just in case the system was over populated of so many transactions, and the team will adjust and fixed this problem making Eth platform more reliable in the long term process.

Do you have any resources that prove that this is actually the case? As far as I could find out so far, the Ethereum dev team said that they are thankful for this because it showed the weaknesses and where they have to work on, but not that they themselves launched this thing as a scalability test.
