✨ Kittens Kittens Kittens - Celebrating My 25th Week on Steemit!

steempowerpics (69)in #community • 7 years ago

Well, if nothing else, it's been a fun week! Kittens! I'm happy to have been able to spend some time this week getting back into a few challenges and contests, as many of you know I was very active in contests in my early days on Steemit so it's good to get involved in a few when I get the chance. Thank you to everyone who helped bring the laughs as I celebrate my 25th week here on Steemit.

It's All Fun 'n Games

Until kittens take down your network.

I've become very active within the EOSTalk / EOS communities, helping to spread awareness as the official launch in mid-2018 approaches. We often talk about the capabilities of the STEEM and Bitshares networks/blockchains, including the transaction capacity and speed as it compares (more like contrasts) to the current top chains in the crypto space.

This week we all got to witness this in real-time on Monday when a DApp called "CryptoKitties" launched on the Ethereum network. It was an instant hit and went viral in a hurry. The resulting surge of transactions (to buy/sell/breed) virtual kittens brought the ETH network to its knees. I will discuss this further in another post.

As the buzz around the ETH Fail increased, @OfficialFuzzy launched a MEME contest to put a spotlight on the situation and call attention to the fact the STEEM and/or upcoming EOS chains could have handled the DApp without flinching.

I have links below to my entries and you can check out Fuzzy's blog for all the contest opportunities.

As I mentioned before, The Whaletank is under re-development and will return soon, meanwhile the Bitshares Hangout will continue as usual and are STREAMED LIVE on YouTube and Twitch.tv along with the Tuesday night EOSTalk LIVE event.
