>> No.4765393

>>4764314
I started by sorting by cheapest and buying the lowest gen and fastest cooldown on page 3/4 (not even worth trying to get the best deals, bots will snipe you)
Then I breed them, sell the sires right away for the same price I bought. When the kitties pop out, I breed mom with mom and kitty with kitty and sell the new sires out of these couplings
If you follow me, at this point we're already talking 50% profit (minus dev cut and mining fees, which actually takes a fair bit of it with the cheapest cats)
Now that I've made decent profit from that I'm starting to buy gen 2 and 3 cats. You can filter by gen by typing "gen:" in the search field. Feels slightly insane paying $100 per cat when the whole thing is bound to collapse in days if not hours, but fuck it. I put $40 in this with the mindset I didn't give a fuck if I lose my principal.

Tech buzzword version: you breed cats with a genetic algorithm that gives them near infinite combinations, and the shtick is they're immutable and cannot be tampered with

Normie version: it's cute looking cats you can collect and breed

Ponzi version: holy shit guys i bought a cat for 0.02 and sold it for 0.08

Mix all these aspects and you have a recipe for success. I told my girlfriend the whole concept (she's no dumb hoe, she asks me questions about crypto all the time) and she thought that's so stupid, then checked the website and said "oh i shouldn't knock it, this looks like something i would play".

Since I got in ETH in March I thought the first big use case for this would be something meshing gamification and immutability well. If you think about it, shitcoin trading is a game for autistic men because we don't need the visual stimulation. Making something with cats and a "decent" graphic style was bound to be a huge hit with normies. Think Angry Birds vs that catapult game they ripped off. If it weren't for network congestion, this would take off like fire.

>The Dutch learned that tulips could be grown from seeds or buds that grew on the mother bulb; a bulb that grows from seed would take 7 to 12 years before flowering, but a bulb itself could flower the very next year. Of particular interest to Clusius and other tulip traders were “broken bulbs”—tulips whose petals showed a striped, multicolor pattern rather than a single solid color. The effect was unpredictable, but the growing demand for these rare, “broken bulb” tulips led naturalists to study ways to reproduce them. (The pattern was later discovered to be the result of a mosaic virus that actually makes the bulbs sickly and less likely to reproduce.) “The high market price for tulips to which the current version of tulipmania refers were prices for particularly beautiful broken bulbs,” writes economist Peter Garber. “Since breaking was unpredictable, some have characterized tulipmania among growers as a gamble, with growers vying to produce better and more bizarre variegations and feathering.”

a partyhat has value because people recognize it as a sign of wealth
there are other items even rarer, but because they are less popular and/or aren't visible when worn, they are worth less

Earlier this year, I had the chance to buy a blue partyhat for about 8-9b. Instead, I chose to RWT all my GP for Bitcoin. A blue partyhat is worth at most $2000-2500 nowadays, and that amount will continue to decrease as the number of people playing RS decreases.

>> No.4774338

I'm a proud owner of 2 fabulous kitties with 1 bun in the oven, but here's some things to keep in mind. Some aspects like how the genes translate to an image are entirely dependent on dev's private servers. Also, there's a pause() function that "only the CEO" can call, which can halt the entire contract (presumably for updates). The CEO and co. also have several other privileges that include minting custom cats (up to 5,000), updating parts of the contract, and knowledge of the genetic algorithms (their FAQ asserts anyone with insider knowledge is "banned from participating", kek).

Unlike a few other crypto asset collectibles, due to this game's complexity and the way it's set up it is highly unlikely this thing would survive if the company died or went rogue.

Also of course the devs are making an assload of cash with their 3.75% transaction fee and gen 0 sales. I suppose through gifting cats it'd be possible to make a marketplace with no fees.

How lucky do you have to be to breed a sailor/chicken kitty? Or is there some sort of required trait matchup to get one?

What the actual fuck, why are they already so expensive?

Cheapest cat is 40$, usually around 0.08 or 0.09 ETH. Am i too late for this train?

Just did some digging and seems like its already too late, the early peeps who got their kittens for nothing are essentially having a great time at expense of the new going in now.

Wouldn't recommend

who buys star citizen jpgs for 3000 usd? that doesnt even have an ability to exchange jpgs. by that alone the kitties should be worth as much as star citizen jpgs.
