Great episode! @steemmonsters will do much more than CryptoKitties did for Ethereum as it has not clogged the system nor increased transaction fees. It is demonstrating how superior the Steem blockchain is for running DApps and achieving scalability.
Thanks @newageinv! Well, it did bring in a lot of new people to eth. How didn't it clog up the system? I remember that right at around the time kitties came out, the fees were quite hefty if you wanted a fast transaction. Or a transaction to go through, at all.
Also, the whole blockchain was almost falling appart at 100% load on the network. Barely able to hold up.
Remember trying to sent a couple of dollars to play an eth based game and the gas it required was around 20 cents, to send like 5 dollars or something.
