Thanks to whoever shilled it here last night, and fuck you for not posting it any sooner. I have a lot of experience with these kinds of games and if I had any idea something like this existed I would have jumped in a lot fucking sooner.

But I can't complain. Five gen 0 kitties for 1.3-1.5 each was good enough. This was by far my biggest gain in crypto. If I got in two days ago then these fucking cat pictures would have single-handedly made it for me, and that's not entirely off the table if they manage to fix the search feature and stop crumbling under the demand for another day or two.

Kitties are killing ETH and the site barely works at the moment. These next few hours will make or break the entire app because effective downtime like this is more than enough to kill a quick fad. It's a shame because there's clearly a lot more still to see and there's so many fucking details put into the genetics, this would have plenty of life left if it worked.

>>4754147
There's no chance. The generation of a cat is fixed. Bred cats are the highest generation parent +1, and Gen 0 cats cannot be born, only created by the devs. They create one every 15 minutes. The ones I bought were mostly sold by other players however, who for whatever reason were selling their virgins at a good .5 discount over the new cats when I first joined. Right now new cats go for 7 ETH each and you can find some Gen 0s from other players for 2-4 ETH, albeit with slower cooldowns since they're partially used up.

Everything is denominated in ETH. When you convert to dollars the prices are so absurd right now that this whole thing feels like it could come crashing down any minute. But then Bitcoin felt that way for a while too so I have no fucking clue what the future holds. All I know is if things continue the way they are with Ethereum clogged and the site barely functional it won't last another day.

Isn't this the very definition of a speculative bubble? These things are just drawings, they're worthless, and people are paying money to each other for it.
This is the definition of tulipmania and you are idiots to be in this market at all. The earliest adopters will make all the money and when the market crashes everyone who owns a cat drawing will lose his money.

>> No.4755632

>>4755548
In fact, if I had a criminal intent I would just "pretend" there are people out there willing to pay $1000 for a cat drawing to attract the rest of you retards and after selling thousands of drawings at $100 a pop to retards hoping to make ten times there money, I can just disappear like that.

Problem with that is you need a decent investment on artists and playtesting. Coding it shouldn’t be too hard tho, Hearthstone was developed by like 5 people but they had a bunch of leftover art, a marketing machine and the Warcraft IP behind them.
