This Cryptokitties thing is really cool and the first time I've ever actually seen an easy-to-understand example of how the Etherium network can actually be used in a practical way (even if it's just Crypto beanie babies) I'm trying to buy a kittie on it but the cheapest ones sell out insanely fast and I don't wanna pay more than $20 to mess around with it

I made $10 by buying a pretend cat and then immediately selling it E: and now the prices are completely skyrocketing because everyone else wants to do the same, maybe i should've kept it E2: this cryptokitties thing is like BTC in microcosm - prices are spiking right now because Forbes and Techcrunch posted articles about it, so everyone is jumping on board hoping to make a quick buck. I wonder how long until it crashes into the ground? Bardeh fucked around with this message at 15:16 on Dec 4, 2017 |

Bardeh posted:I wonder how long until it crashes into the ground? Well, my kitties have doubled in value overnight but I can't sell poo poo because I think the eth network is totally broke. By pictures of cats on the internet. Visa, central banks, large governments, watch out! I have worked for internet companies for 15 years now and the biggest problems are always related to scaling.... adserving, search, social, image hosting, you name it. Crypto can't scale so it won't work. I'm sure someone will figure it out, but it looks pretty far of for now. PROTIP: Buy all the kitties as soon as you can, I'm up $300 now

Comment from the developers of Cryptokitties on hackernews: "When we started the project, we expected to use a standard, eBay-style, rising auction with successive bids, but that resulted in way too many on-chain transactions. So, we had to find a kind of auction that required just two committed transactions: Starting the auction, and claiming the winning bid. The answer was a descending clock auction, where you set some start price and gradually drop the price over time until someone chooses to pay. (It's formally equivalent to a first-price, sealed bid auction, if you're an auction theory aficionado!) The common name for a descending clock auctions? "Dutch Auction" or "Tulip Auction". The irony is not lost on us..."

I do like how ETH smart contracts are good enough to cave when someone tries to use them. It's as if all cryptos are unsuited for mainstream use.

OK I had to make a CoinBase account to buy some EtherCoins so it asked me to put my email in and then it send me the verification code... and now there's no link in the email and nowhere on their page to enter the verification code. e: Had to go back to some other page but manage to do it.

Welcome to crypto. If you'd done this very easy thing in February of this year and invested 1% of your net worth, you could be worth tens of thousands of dollars at this point. Or zero.

Did you know that 3 million people, 3 million, signed up for a Coinbase account from start of September to end of November 3 million people can manage to make that webpage work, I hope you can find your way to this illicit cabal and join them

I was going to joke about how many of those accounts were bots, but then I wondered if we were going to see a complete bot market somewhere one day from a series of rogue algorithms that’s just bots trading virtual currency with other bots.

The page actually is crap though, when I signed up for it a few months ago it kept failing to accept my driver's license photo which was perfectly readable and there was no one to talk to about it since they don't really have support

Coinbase is good but it has this weird front-end race condition glitch where it shows all your balances as $0.00 from time to time. Perhaps an omen for things to come.
