"I, Tuzki, You" was first released in 2009, the second year after Bitcoin was born, and it happened to be a coincidence that I also bought a copy. Afterwards, the image of Tuzki became popular on QQ and became the originator of emoticons at that time. The story about Tuzki is no longer unfolding. Once this IP was very big, and the author was also an internationally renowned illustrator.

before the auction
Momo Wang designed four cats inspired by the DADA ballet for CryptoKitties, two of which are reserved for Fancy Chase, and the remaining two will be auctioned on Nifty Gateway.
The first CryptoKitty Catterina is a special edition, the one on the left in the picture, limited to 100 pieces, with an initial price of $100 each. After all are sold, the Momo Wang Exclusive on the right will be auctioned.
Half of the proceeds from the auction will go to Feeding America and the Food Bank of Canada to help provide safe food supplies to communities affected by Covid-19. Your support will help ease the burden on these national channels, which have seen increased demand due to illness, shutdowns and job interruptions. It is also a charity auction.
Due to the time difference, the auction started at 7:00 a.m. China time on May 15th. After ensuring that there was no problem with the payment channel for the auction, we took a rest early and waited for the next day's auction.

The next day, when I refreshed to enter the auction page, there was only half of the quantity left. After payment, the payment was not deducted, and it was sold out in a few minutes. Although this auction passed by, the sense of participation was still good. You can't buy it for $100, you can't buy it at a loss, you can't be fooled, the world is limited to 100 pieces, and it is shot for public welfare.

after the auction
The efficiency of the blockchain is high. After the auction in the previous second, it will enter the secondary market immediately, and the bidding will be four times the premium in an instant, so that the fans participating in the auction can feel the charm of NFT.
The proceeds from the auction were 10,000$, and the premium was four times higher in the secondary market. Everyone did charity work and earned auction income. The auction platform gained traffic, and Cat Obsession gained attention again. It was a win-win situation.
Of course, the first one is just an appetizer. The limited number of 100 pieces is still a bit much. The highlight is still in Koshkat, and there is only one in stock. The highest starting price of 0 yuan wins, and the rules are clear and clear.
The limited number of one is just one of the reasons for its rarity, including its number is the special reserved number #222, a special 0 generation rare cat.https://www.cryptokitties.co/kitty/222

Not only that, after the photo is taken, it will also bring a small speaker on the top of the service, the owner's sense of honor is MAX.
Auction Bid History
The nickname of Kitten Mittens in Nifty Gateway is notkm, and the bidding competition is also very fierce. The price increase of 3,500 to 5,000 directly repelled whaleshark. When it was 7,000 to 7,100, it began to hesitate, until club1000 broke the price of 10,000, and notkm finally caught up with the price of 10,500 US dollars. Take this Koshkat, which is equivalent to 52 ETH.
However, the transaction price of this cat is not even in the top 30 in the history of obsessed with cats. In the past, it was said that the transaction price was Kitty 896775, 600 ETH, and the transaction price of #0 Genesis Cat was 246.926 ETH. Koshkat's transaction of 52 ETH is not high in the history of obsessed cats, but today in 2020, it is considered a good result for obsessed cats to be able to sell 52 ETH.

The Artist Series Exclusive Auction series is the first attempt of CryptoKitties. The Obsessed Cat team is a very innovative and patient team. The low financing is enough to support the team’s development. This persistence in exploring and polishing products is better than absolute Most blockchain game project parties.
In addition to AsyncArt's programmable NFT concept, after the release of the new version, can Decentraland, the hot and successful Cryptovoxels, and CryptoKitties, which once detonated Ethereum, return to the public eye?
In the Math Wallet DappStore category, you can find NFT-related applications on Ethereum, encrypted art creations such as Superrare and MakersPlace, which are more products of artists, and buyers are more inclined to the author behind it and the appearance of the artwork itself , creativity.

Most people may not be able to resonate with these works, just like not everyone understands Van Gogh and Da Vinci. But it is the group of these art creators who have formed their own culture with the help of the Ethereum platform and the concept of NFT.
I also paid attention to Block Create Art earlier. It is a domestic brand that focuses on art creation and new culture research and development in the field of blockchain/cryptocurrency. It has opened an online micro-store and also has a physical exhibition hall. one example.
This reminds me of the blind box of POP MART. The blind box economy is a popular entry in 2019, and the sales volume and popularity are here, and there are constant discussions about it. The so-called blind box usually contains animations, peripherals of film and television works, trendy figures, or dolls designed by designers alone.
In fact, the history can be traced back to the gashapon culture in Japan, which developed into this kind of blind box culture with IP roles, lottery draws and collection behaviors in China. Bubble Mart has undergone 10 financings since its establishment in 2010, and it is rumored that it will also be listed in Hong Kong recently.
Mainland toy retailer Bubble Mart goes public in Hong Kong, raising up to 2.33 billion yuan
Foreign media quoted market sources as saying that Chinese toy retailer Bubble Mart plans to list in a Hong Kong IPO this year, raising about US$200 million to US$300 million (approximately HK$1.55 billion to HK$2.33 billion). CITIC CLSA and Morgan Stanley are responsible for arranging the listing.
The company reportedly completed more than $100 million in pre-IPO financing in April, with investors including Sequoia Capital, China Renaissance Capital and Loyal Valley Capital.
CryptoKitties should also be aware of this. Artist Series is an entry point for introducing well-known artists into the creation of CryptoKitties. It is also an IP cultural creation + blockchain. Introducing artists' works into the blockchain world not only conforms to the NFT past The development trend of digital art, combined with blockchain, can also maximize the circulation value of artists' works. Looking forward to the works of artists introduced by CryptoKitties next.

CryptoKitties Rethink
When we talk about CryptoKitties again, it is no longer hype at sky-high prices, but scientific breeding to get rich, and simply list a few innovations of CryptoKitties in the NFT field.
1. Let the NFT make a sound
In addition to the appearance of a static picture, more and more dynamic NFTs are appearing. What if NFTs can add sound files? When the mouse focus hovers over this NFT, a voice/music will play automatically. Currently CryptoKitties has added meowing sounds to the special-cats category.https://www.cryptokitties.co/
Experience link:
Can you imagine that the song is an NFT? After buying out, you can receive the NFT of this album regularly. When a new song is sent to your wallet in the form of an NFT, the built-in player in the wallet can play this song that is completely yours. song.
Can you imagine that knowledge payment/newsletter/news is an NFT. After subscribing to these services, you can receive some NFTs, and you can listen to these news and knowledge payment content through your wallet.
2. Let the NFT see you
This function is basically implemented by the front end. The effect is the same as the fox of metamask following your mouse, and the cat's eyes follow the direction of your mouse.
It can make NFT show micro-interactions, reminiscent of QQ pets and rising lions.
3. Make NFT 3D
Partner with MegaCryptoPolis and turn your CryptoKitty into an in-game 3D modeled cat. It can also be displayed in Decentraland. Going a little deeper, it will be a matter of time to combine with VR and AR. In the recent American TV series Upload, the protagonist brings friends he met in the virtual world to his funeral in the virtual world. On the opposite side of the screen is his girlfriend in the real world. If this world really exists, Pokémon and CryptoKitties should all be in it.
In the not-too-distant year 2033, six technology companies operate a virtual reality hotel, and dying people can "upload" it to enjoy the rest of their lives. Living on a tight schedule, Nora lives in Brooklyn, New York, and provides "angel" customer service for the world behind the luxury digital "Horizen Lakeview". Nathan, a wandering programmer in Los Angeles, suffers from an autopilot accident and is seriously injured. His materialistic girlfriend Ingrid convinces him to upload permanently and enter the Haolizen virtual reality world where Nora works.
4. Enhance NFT liquidity
One of the disadvantages of NFT is that the current market is chaotic and liquidity is scarce. Real items such as Bubble Mart and BJD dolls can be traded in C2C malls such as Xianyu, while the CryptoKitties market itself has restricted too many people due to its own threshold.
The total trading volume of CryptoKitties on Opensea, the largest NFT trading market, is 1,885, which is far from the 667,970 traded in its own market, and the trading volume of CryptoKitties on Opensea is only 199 ETH.
Therefore, the concept of WCK is introduced. One encryption kitty is equal to one WCK. The production cost of each encryption kitty is about 0.008 ETH. The rules are as follows:
Users can send an encrypted cat to the contract through the website and get an ERC20 WCK token
Users can send WCK tokens to the contract and get random CryptoKitties
Users can send WCK tokens to the contract and receive specific CryptoKitties
It is easy to exchange rare cats by downgrading ordinary cats into packages through WCK, at least it is much easier than selling them one by one for ETH and then buying them. The most expensive transaction of WCK was exchanged for 10,000 WCK.
Up to now, there are 52,024 Wrapped Kitties contracts, which is equivalent to 52,024 WCKs generated in the market. Fang Fang, who bought a large number of encrypted kitties, bought a large number of WCKs at one time. Because you can always exchange a WCK for an encryption kitty.

Gen 0 Pawn Shop
Through Uniswap, you can exchange WCK in large quantities without going to the exchange. Of course, with the current scale of WCK, Binance will not list them despite the loud voice.
is a smart contract that brings liquidity to 0th generation EtherKitties holders. If you need ETH in an emergency, you can send Gen0 ether cats to this contract. When returning the Ethereum, your Gen 0 cats will be transferred back to you.
5. NFT Interoperability KittyVerse
When people talked about the interoperability of Ethereum DeFi, Furucombo appeared, lowering the threshold for interoperability between DeFi applications.

CryptoKitties has brought NFT to 11 other Dapps, and how to use it will not be discussed in this article.
In fact, this kind of interoperability involves the renewal of the Nifty license. Third parties have great freedom to use CryptoKitties to develop their own Dapps. If the commercialization is less than 100,000$, they do not need to apply for a special commercial license with CryptoKitties.
NFT Licenses: Helping Define What Ownership Means in the Blockchain
6. NFT genetic tools
Die-hard users spent more than a month deciphering the secrets of Genes after the release of CryptoKitties. Today, they are trying to maximize market efficiency and take this discovery to the extreme.
By entering the IDs of two cats, the resulting breed and traits can be deduced. It is also possible to know the genetic bias of a cat, and breed with other cats with a high probability of appearing breeds, which greatly facilitates users who like to breed.
Of course, there are also more professional players who provide breeding services for Hao users, raise cats scientifically, decipher the genetic code, and choose the optimal combination.
Generation 0 Breeding Services
1.1 ETH = 60 Generation 1 (2 founder's children)
0.55 ETH = 30 Generation 1 (1 founder's child)
0.3 ETH = 15 Gen 1 uniques
A total of 240 Gen 0 will be bred by the best pairing method and bred from the gene pool. 8 days delivery after payment.
7. CryptoKitties Rank
Which CryptoKitties player does not have the dream of collecting a full set of CryptoKitties, there are four players who have collected all 92 cats in the Fancy category, and Waltmester3000 with the highest score has 27494 cats.
https://www.cryptokitties.co/profile/
Appreciation address
There are a little more than 43 cats in the prestige category, eleven of them, of course Waltmester3000 is one of them.
There are only four cats who have collected a total of 245 cats in the catdex category, and Waltmester3000 is only short of one. It is estimated that they forgot to fill in the latest update.
There are 148 types of Ethercats exclusively issued, 111 with a stock of 1, and 15 with a stock of 2. Ordinary people cannot collect all these cats, and it is very difficult to obtain them. For example, the reward for reaching the 2 millionth cat in the entire network is Gale, and the owner offers 250 ETH.
Although Waltmester3000 already has more than 20,000 cats, he is nothing in front of Kitten Mittens, which is the trench where Koshkat was photographed. Because he owns 213,642 Ethercats, 20,599 of which are Fancy, with an estimated value of over 2,000 ETH.

Summarize
Summarize
First of all, logically, do we often feel that the blockchain is decentralized? Do you have this feeling? When you think that the blockchain is decentralized, there must be a logical opposite, called centralization. Because if there is no concept of centralization, it is meaningless for you to think that one thing is decentralized. If we think that the blockchain is centralized, there must be a corresponding concept of decentralization. When you think that this blockchain has no absolute decentralization and centralization, then you have committed a major fallacy logically, because when you think that nothing is absolutely decentralized and centralized, this The point of view itself is centralized, and you are advocating a centralized point of view.
Secondly, in terms of experience, as mentioned just now, each of us will experience some centralized things, and we all long for the existence of the concept of decentralization in our hearts. All human feelings must have their objective objects to project. If I am thirsty, there must be water; if I am hungry, there must be food; if I have sexual desire, there must be an object pointed to by sexual desire. Then why does the blockchain have a sense of decentralization, because there must be an object pointed to by the centralization, otherwise this feeling is meaningless.
The world of blockchain is exciting, full of bubbles and scams but also interesting stuff. Borrowing from Mr. Luo Xiang's analysis of the establishment of justice and injustice, it is used to question whether the blockchain should be decentralized or centralized, torturing the builders of the blockchain.
