How dangerous are new projects for the real use of blockchain? We have already seen the story of the CryptoKitties, which brought down the Ethereum network. Can this happen again now? What projects can now grow in such a way that will affect the work of the network itself?

I haven't heard anything about good gameplay for such projects. Not so sure about the Ethereum network, but cryptokitties and others (numerous of) are same: buy something that's correlated with the project's token. Technically those are not real games, but another sauce to sell us more dishes called scammy ICO tokens.

I don't know where you heard about cryptokitties and other ethereum games, but they are not scam. It's a collective game with microtransactions.
It's just a game and they are not stealing people's money. They have done a great job and many other projects just copied them.

Eth network had problems when cryptokitties released, but it was just for a few days/hours and never happened again. It was a good network test and was positive for the network. If ethereum is to grow, many games like this are going to be online

I am talking about the method, not the concrete project. Like poodle63 commented, if we're speaking about the games, we need to mention the values of gameplay, scenario and design. And you're exactly right, i've mentioned clones.

HODL

ETH is the center of altcoin. Most new altcoin hover around this platform. The value of ETH is to be offset based on the attractiveness and effectiveness of the new altcoin. And if altcoin can not offset the value of ETH by believing consumers based on the gadgets and products they create. It will cause imbalance and degradation is what is seen in the present. 90% of the projects are unsuccessful and the scam has tied up the value of ETH.

Danger if the new project is a scam that will be able to undermine the value of the ETH in an instant,some people even see the CryptoKitties cat game project is not a scam but it's just a game like trading.I'm not found a new virtual dapp games project that can increase network performance as you intended Maybe next year it will happen.

Do not forget that Bitcoin or Ethereum are still in development (you can call this phase of experiments). Of course, many surprises may happen, but if someone believes in the development of technology, he will also believe in the success of cryptocurrencies.

CEO of coinbase has invested in cryptokitties, but a lot of people realized about the fact that it's a child's game and no more. what's the usefulness of collecting the cat?

The game might be useless, but it's not a scam

Is candy crush a scam? Is PS4 a scam? PS4 is also useless, but not a scam.

You guys don't know the meaning of words anymore lol

Haven't heard it before and to out of curiosity i search it and it was a game, i know nothing about of this game but i don't think it can affect more in ETH these days. People can always learn and the same strategy won't fall for them again, even to me too because we already have a lot of tools to use to confirm the legitimacy of a game.

I heard that Ethereum is working hard on scaling its own platform because of the CryptoKitties debacle. It really disrupt its network and overwhelm the system specially last year. Or course its going to happen not only in Ethereum but other platforms as well. But just like any other hype, CryptoKitties will just die along the way and new games will pop up that's why devs really need to keep an eye specially on how to scale their projects.

Not so sure about the Ethereum network, but cryptokitties and others (numerous of) are same: buy something that's correlated with the project's token. Technically those are not real games, but another sauce to sell us more dishes called scammy ICO tokens.

It's a boring game and a lot of people have been staying away from there until there will be a good feature that makes the cat will be useful.

Yes that can happen anytime again if something new comes out and gets people's interest.

As long as there are many people using the network and transferring at the same that will cost a congestion. Just like in real life, even the biggest highways are becoming full and in traffic when vast cars are arriving altogether in season.
