It's worth noting that at its peak when CryptoKitties transactions hogged the Ethereum network and made it barely useable, CryptoKitties had only 14k users.
- mockingbirdy 8y agoSome things scale horizontally, some things scale vertically. But some things scale diagonally. If I would build a system that gets DoS'd with 14k users I would get fired faster than the latest startup burns through VC money.
- drcode 8y agoTo be fair, there's a known solution to the cryptokitty scalability problem (a particular type of "plasma chain" tuned for nonfungible tokens) and this is being worked on and will likely see the light of day pretty soon. This of course does not solve the bigger problem: the small user base.
- mockingbirdy 8y agoGreat. Now we just need enough spoiled rich 12yo girls and some get-rich-quick guys that bid on some imaginary kitties.
- Animats 8y agoRight. I was thinking about combining CryptoKitties and Second Life type breedable animals to make collectable ponies you could go play with and show off in virtual reality. But no.
