Join the CryptoKitties team and a group of special guests from the Ethereum community for a round of rapid-fire lightning talks.





5 speakers will get 5 minutes each to answer one question: What went wrong?





2018 marked the first full year for CrptoKitties and a lot (a lot!) happened. So, we thought it’d be fun to reflect on the things that didn’t quite go as planned, and share a couple of the episodes that kept us up at night. And we’re inviting others to do the same – there is a vibrant community building with blockchains and we want to hear about their experiences over the last year as well. So come and be a fly on the wall as people with various roles in the ecosystem recount the nightmares and mayhem from last year. There’ll be some lolz...and some wisdom. What more could you want?





Join us on Thursday, February 21st from 6:15 pm at the Distributed Global offices for pizza, beverages, cat puns, and a facepalm (or two).









Speakers include:

Austin Samsel - Engineer at CryptoKitties - You can't change the past — not even with teamwork

Devin Finzer - CEO of OpenSea - Building Alongside an Early Ecosystem: Tales from the Origins of the OpenSea marketplace

Brian Flynn - Editor of NFTY News - It's not clear what's valuable, because the definition of value changes

Cassidy Robertson - Product manager at CryptoKitties - What happens when extensibility takes kitties to dark places
