Well that didn't take long...
It was just 1 month ago we were all abuzz over the first virtual crypto pet game to go viral - CryptoKitties. Fast forward just 30 days and we are on the eve of a crypto pet showdown of food chain proportions.
So CryptoKitties were cute, but in the end kinda useless beyond the limited purpose of acting as a digital art representation of an Ethereum token. The only "interaction" was a behind the scenes mating ritual to create new kittens from eggs (?), go figure.
We all had our fun taking shots at the platform for choosing to use the slow-as-balls and non-scalable Ethereum network as the backbone currency for the virtual pets... MEMEs were made, money was lost, good times!
Now there are a bunch of new virtual pet projects under development that are starting to be released this month, and surprisingly, after all the headaches caused by the Ethereum network, they are all still choosing to go that route. Looks like we will be stuck trying to explain Gas Fees to our moms so they can keep a collection of digital cats and fish for the foreseeable future.
Fishbank is Here! ( BY INVITE ONLY )
Shameless referral link = http://my.fishbank.io/go/25620
ā You need to use an invite link at the moment - so click mine LOL.
Just as I took some time to test the CryptoKitties project, I will dive into Fishbank to see how this one all works and share what I find about its potential advantages over the Kitties.
This project seems to have taken the digital pet theme a few steps further, allowing a deeper level of interaction between them.
Grow, fight and trade your predatory fish champion in the new blockchain game!
Every fish is an ERC-721 crypto token stored on the Ethereum blockchain.
Digital asset 100% owned by the player. It can be managed like a regular cryptocurrency ā transferred or sold to any other player. It cannot be destroyed, removed or replaced.
unt other fish and take a bite of them to increase your fish weight and reach top of the global leaderboards. Trade your winning fish for a better one and grow another champion!
It looks like you will need to take care of your fish to keep them in good health to ensure a high $ value when selling or trading
Take a look and get started during the pre-launch invite period.

ā Good thing is , you sign up with an invite link (please use mine) then when you refer 3 people you will get a free fish to start... so no money risk to get in on this one early to try it.
Yeah, it will be on Ethereum, but I suppose we can have some "SLOW MOTION" fun until they finally build one on STEEM or EOSIO.
