Well, it seems Ethereum can hold one viral game, if barely. Not sure if any other smart contract blockchain out there can do the same.

Even in the event that an attacker gains more than 50% of the network's
computational power, only transactions sent by the attacker could be
reversed or double-spent. The network would not be destroyed.

Yes, it is because of this garbage, the transactions are very slow and the entire network is nearly frozen ... Something has to be done because the tendency is that more projects like those come up, what puts eth in a serious risk. |

I don't think that this issue will be solved soon. The most probable time is a late January. Till that time we have to deal with it by setting higher gas price. I usually check this resource to set the gas price: https://ethgasstation.info/Current safe gas price is 50. |

There 2 reason that make Eth transactrions slow:
1. Too much hot ico and people set low GAS price
2. Bitcoin transaction become slower + bitcoin withdraw fee increase because of bitcoin price so people start exchange bitcoin to Eth for faster sending.
Why do you think these are the main reasons  But what about this game cryptokitties about which everyone is talking about The most interesting is when everything falls into place. |

All because of CryptoKitties. My transactions cleared pretty soon(within 10 minutes) but now exchanges are not letting me withdraw or deposit ETH/ERC-20 tokens for past 3 days. All the wallets are in maintenance mode. It's frustrating to wait as the price of ETH has been dipping due to this. Earlier the issue was resolved in 24 hours but now its still on for 3+ days with 20971+ pending txs.

Just put 70 gwei (like 60 cent) in gas and it'll be done in 1 minute. It's not that eth isn't working, it's just that the miners can be picky. https://ethgasstation.info/But this highlights the importance of scaling, and a bit embarrassing for eth that it's a cat game causing it.. |

Nah, it's a viral collectible game on Ethereum blockchain. You can buy, sell and breed imaginary kittens in it. |

I did not expect such a failure from the etherium ((
all the positive aspects of the blockchaine - fast transactions and low commission disappeared
because of some kind of game

Sadly it's down to the crypto kitties, it is estimated they are taking up 15/20% of all transactions so ETH developers need to sort this stress test out.

All these unconfirmed transactions are due to network congestion. Its a busy network right now due to some apps.  |

Network congestion is the problem, kitty is wrecking it with micro transactions clogging up the network. If Ethereum don't sort this out it will be the downfall of the network.
