So i know it's the world of cryptocurrency, plus it's the internet but I seriously underestimated the impact CryptoKitties would have. It's proper booming! I'm assuming it will be a fad but still, fair play and credit where it's due!

I think a lot of people might notice that these kitties are useness, but they bet they are not the last batch of people who want to buy the kitty. Then they will buy and make some money out from breeding and selling.

Doesn't suprise me that much, these senseless games always find a sweet spot by people. Look at tamagotchi or those mobile games you play such as clash of clans(?) they're an utter timewaste but its like watching tv, it takes your mind of of something

I suspect that many many people in it don't give a single iota about these kitties whatsoever and are simpy in it to make money, some of them are selling for ridiculous sums and those people are profiting from the ones who somehow value a digital kitten that highly.

This is the funniest and most creative attack on a cryptocurrency I ever seen. This cryptokitties things showcases how much of a failed experiment Ethereum is. A network that gets unusable because people start trading virtual kitten pets with it. How ridiculous. I tried to warn people that something like this would sooner or later happen, but nobody wanted to listen. Now ETH network is collapsing while BTC holders hit all time highs everyday.

Much as you love Cryptokitties and all the praises and endorsement. It is  now causing a monumental problem in the Ethereum system as transaction are now at snail speed and it is now causing a lot problems.

It's just another fad like Flappy Bird was only this time it's a crypto game.  Once it inevitably dies off and people move on to the next nonsense thing, it will all return to normal.

Plus: Ethereum doesnt work, bitcoin doesnt work, i do not know what else to do.

Bitcoin is going up to the sky, but it is unsable, so what is the sense of seeing it going over twenty thousand dollars if we are not able to send a single transaction without having to wait hours to get it confirmed?

i am getting tired of this.

Have you noticed that since cryptokitties was launched the whole network is more slow? Is this a coincidence?

Completely true and the thing we should do now is wait until that thing dies and lost interest by people because if that thing happen just like on most thing hyped up do easily pass up and move on into a new one which is common or normal thing for people to do.For now since its still booming up then we would still suffer on very slow confirmation because of the congestion of the network.It do really sucks but we cant do nothing but to wait until the hype is already depleted.

The Kitties craze, i hope it stops really soon. Most of my holdings are erc20 tokens and so, business is not moving. Or if i insist, I'll have to spend some serious amount of fees for every transaction.

CryptoKitties is the latest craze in blockchain era innovation, but the real problem is blockchain wasn't created to play games, and effects we can see now. I was accumulating Tokens today on EtherDelta:
- Oyster Pearl  [PRL]
- QuantStamp [QSP]
- SunContract [SNC]
I paid 7.50$ in fees only just to purchase this Tokens, I didn't transfer them back to my wallet even!
I have nothing against games, I like to play games but this idea putting the game on blockchain? Stupid, investors suffer now!
For 3 transaction I should pay 0.012$, not 7.50$. I wish this game never existed in first place, useless waste of resources. I read on their Facebook page even users playing this stupid game can't log in and play because to network issues.
I don't think this situation will change quickly, because of HIGH fees we paying to ETH network.

Anyone know why people buy these Kitties? Maybe I don't see the important reason.

A friend told ma about cryptokitties a day or two ago, I am glad I did not contribute to it. Also, after reading the above posts I just realized that it is somehow related to the downfall of the ETH. Not that I lost much, but i should have reacted sooner and avoided any stress from the last couple of days...

I still can not believe that there is so much transaction for buying kittens so they locked up the whole system. Probably, bunch of people created that hype and others jumped in.  It will be ended like Pokemon Go!

Unfortunately this case shows the vulnerability of the ethereum network. I hope that the Raiden fork will fix this kind of problems with scalability.
