All transactions in ethereum is very full now. We need to increase gas price in etherdelta. It's all because cryptokitties games. Minimum gas price is more than 50. If you set gas price less than 50, so your transaction were be canceled or pending.

CryptoKitties, a game where you virtually buy a kitten to raise it and trade it for coins. It is a game where you actually raise your money. It clogs the system, making the ETH processes much slower than usual. Usually 4 GWEI is needed for the normal process and now the required GWEI is over 40, just for the normal speed. Also the ether delta is affected, The withdraw and deposit function most of the time results to error. Ethereum processes are slow this current time because of that game. Ethereum management now are taking actions on how to solve the problem, and i think soon will be normal again. Specially for those who are token holders and person who wants to sell their tokens.

It is true that everyone has the same complaints as you. it looks like eth should fix its system again, because I think the cause is too many people are currently doing transactions on eth. so make our transactions slow.

I am doing trades on ehterdelta where the default gas price is 4 Gwei. The network in the last few days is terribly slow I remember 1 week ago I was making trades on 1 Gwei and even 0.1 and the transactions were done within minutes, now with 4 Gwei I have to wait like 20 minutes and sometimes the transactions get canceled. My question is what is the reason for this? Is it temporary or it will be like this for the near future?
Maybe your connection is slow so maybe that will be the problem? I Don't have any problem with ethereum. Or maybe you have exchange a token that is hard to convert. You must need to be patient also for you to get succeeded on your transaction, just  do your transaction again if they get cancelled your request.

I do not exactly know what is the main reason why ethereum are very slow. I think that the people are not that crazy to invest on ethereum that big just like bitcoins unlike bitcoins the people who are investing on them are very huge. Ethereum prices are just are on stable not growing up and not going down or either slowly growing up and slowly growing down. At least that they have some stable consumers that are holding their coins for a long term investment but i think that if more people are investing in this the value will also rise just like bitcoins and will pump as quickly as bitcoins

Kitty game is the main reason but the problem they don't make any announcement yet. They have to inform the community so that we know when this nightmare will end. We're paying 30x more fee at the moment compared to past.

anyone know when ethereum is going to normal again, i try to up gas to 40, 60 gwei its same still pending or cancel i dont know?
Cryptokittes game will load ethereum network. But this can not last so long. Will wait!

Like I said before. This insane. How do they plan to attract the masses, if a kitty game can overload the system?
I hope that more people start asking questions and rather invest their money in future proof coins.
There are altcoins whose network is able to handle a billion transactions simultaneously and this for only a fraction of a cent!! I hope that these coins will have bright future ahead.


How is it possible for things like this to happen for the nr 2 coin after bitcoin with such a big community and marketcap.

Probably the Ethereum network was never designed to handle such loads. Of course they will try to fix it, but the future lies in certain coins which were designed to handle billions of transactions in less than a second for a fraction of a dollar cent. How else would they want to attract the world's masses into crypto. With coins where every transaction takes days and cot a couple of dollars, versus simultaneously and a fraction of a cent?

It was slow due to network congestion but now seems to have recovered a bit as many people are reporting quick transactions, I think eth team should resolve the congestion issue once and for all.

Because cryptokittes are invading eth network and slowing it down. That is quite sad if you think about it.

After all, ETH ushered in a new era, the age of smart contracts, but in relative terms, the rate of processing per second is a bit low.

In my opinion, because of some transactional problem, their network has become slow.For this reason, we can't deposit our coin.It's very painful.

according to me ethereum is not slow but are moving very fast as compare to other altcoins while if you are comparing with bitcoin then i want to say that bitcoin is a very big coin and get a very high number of customers in the world and also have more age then ethereum while ethereum need too much time to get such a big value in market like bitcoin.
