What the hell are Crypto kitties?

[gomei]

I know the cryptokitty because it made the Etherium network very crowded, and some ICO projects has to be delayed. But it is a good news to ETH holders since the price is growing.

For me this is the second madness after doge coin. Doge was the first madness in crypto history and still goes on.
And Kitties will go on for years. Ethereum network getting slower day by day cause of kitties.

Although the platform got clogged, I'm happy that cryptokitties got so popular, cuz it helped Ethereum get more popular. Thus the price is going up in last weeks. It's great for all ethers owners.

The game itself is very much exciting. Which is why it was able to garner that amount of traffic to Ethereum Network. Although I'm yet to try it out but the reviews from others are top notch

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

Cryptokitties is a game that is built in blockchain technology, 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 but I never tried play this game, but it is now trending because while playing you can also earn money, this is also the reason why Ethereum blockchain is congested and now experiencing scaling issues. Here's their official site: https://www.cryptokitties.co/

so this is the famous kitties that always been mentioned here in forum,and
the reason why the blockchain has this kind of congestion.maybe sooner there will
be CRYPTODOG or CRYPTO BIRDIE?what the hellos wrong with this guys.dont they
know how trouble is happening to crypto now.

Thanks your info! But breed and sell them very difficult at this time
for me! This is only a game in blockchain to test and buiding other games apps

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.

Same situation on here which i do already set by default on having a 50 gwei gas on each transactions i do made on Delta but sometimes it pissed me when it errors.I dont know whats the reason but it is really such a waste of money and one of the reason is for sure is that cryptokitties game which you would breed and sell em off depending on breed.Prices are insane and i dont know on whats the basis of such pricing even reaching out unbelievable ranges which i cant really think off to pay just for a single breed of cat.

It's like a tamagochi but with breeding different rare kittens and exchanging them mostly for some amount of ETH. People says it's exiting and if you're a collector then it's your type of a game 100%. But don't loose all your savings on it!

Lol, it`s just code, just pictures on the screen, it`s not art or useful coin. Tamagochi for big boys  . Saving money in Kitties... sounds funny.

yeah it also destroy the ethereum blockchain. it is a game that you can breed and trade kitties using ethereum based contracts. This is related to the super rise of the bitcoin.

Crypto kitties? Quite a fun game and can really get you some dough. The thing is. Because of this game, i couldn't invest on my favorite ICOs and tokens that are about to get hyped. Lost a whole variety of chances for profit because of these crypto kitties. But all in all. It is a pretty smart project. Kudos for the developers. It made a big noise. Enough to make other people outside of the crypto world to hear it and spark curiosities.

ETH network congestion slowing payouts at pools and exchanges right meow.

[strickland]

no one buy my kitty...gen 0...so sad

What is the price of your kitty? How much money did you spent for buying one?

It didn't make me laugh though I can see how people would try to invest in something that may or may not work.

This cryptokitties makes network trouble most transactions take time to process. I dont know why it is created it is not well form. It brought users to complain in the network problem.

[Zicadis]

I saw an article that it is a game. You can breed your digital kitties and sell it. It is also the reason why the ethereum blockchain got clogged.

network seems to have improved and i no longer see Crypto kitties transactions was the game shut down? Maybe the crypto dogs chased the kitties

I think its good this crypto kitties game got to put the eth platform to the test, which showed the network needed some twerking and also gives the eth devs an opportunity to improve the ethereum platform for better usage in the future.

It's the proof some people make such a ridiculous amount of money they don't mind spending it in stuff like this. I guess in thet way it helped a little bit with redistribution of crypto wealth, despite making etherdelta struggling for days.

[Crumple Cat]

But I like the cryptokitties.
A lot of news about them read.  
They picked up a lot of HYPE. Even saw ICO, which gives kittens (if you do not believe https://goo.gl/cwxd52)
Cryptokitties funny project in general  

also saw this giveaway.
cats look funny
look

 
It seems that the guys reacted quite quickly.
I think that in the near future we will see many more interesting things related to cryptokitties

They buy kitties and sell it for a lot of money, and slow down ethereum blockchain)

Digital cats that you can breed, which turn into other unique digital cats and can be sold for more money later.. clogged up the blockchain for a few days, created congestion to the ethereum network and delayed transactions

We don't want anymore digital cats. We want fast ether transactions, we want fast blockchain in ethereum. We want fast token transfers. That's all. We don't need games in this expensive industry.
