Introducing @deepnewz — live as a Farcaster news Mini App. Our AI collects, writes and organizes news in real time, based on tens of thousands of sources, on topics from tech to sports to crypto to international. Thanks @patze for amazing app and @ted for notes and suggestions. It really is fun building on Farcaster! DeepNewz works by listening to news sources in real time. From CNN, Fox News, Bloomberg and industry publications, to bloggers and first party sources like @vitalik.eth and OpenAI. It aggregates the information in real-time, and writes short articles with headlines, quotes and citations. We do this across hundreds of topics and niches, including international sources that are translated to English by the AI. Looking forward to building on Farcaster and let us know improvements you’d like to see next! https://warpcast.com/miniapps/-1lGKTR6HXMY/deepnewz

One key thing, doing a modified harberger (capped demand-based renewal fees) that still gives min guarantee ownership times, overcoming the primary harberger failure mode

Checks are still dead-simple, one function. `checkDelegateForAll(hotWallet, accountOwner, "warpcast")` returns true if people have delegated that specific rights string or if they've delegated the empty rights string. So granularity doesn't add complexity for integrators.

One thing I'd add that you might not be aware of (since it didn't exist in V1) is subdelegation rights. Users can delegate for a specific usecase without delegating their entire wallet, as some might want. Just a matter of using a specific bytestring for the `rights` param, I'd recommend "warpcast"

Looks clean. As long as Farcaster Hubs are verifying EVM events already should just be one to listen to. Or there’s onchain enumeration so no event indexing even required

@0xfoobar — there’s a proposal from @sanjay and @horsefacts.eth to support verifications from delegate, curious if you have thoughts on the implementation https://github.com/farcasterxyz/protocol/discussions/109

random devs will make a m*tam*sk hotwallet address, call themselves a bridge, and then people send hundreds of millions to dollars to it then one day they lose their seed phrase and go "oh no our bridge has been hacked! the force majeure strikes again!"

It's insane when people compare Threads to Clubhouse Absolutely zero ability to distinguish between an upstart app by a couple guys with no execution experience and a targeted killshot by the established leader in social over the past decade

Easier to get engagement on memes than text, and so Gresham's Law kicks in for all content creators at scale

I think a certain genre of social network, be Twitter/Warpcaster/a secret third thing, would do better to be text-only instead of giving users multimedia options. Obviously this doesn't work for an Instagram, but there's a prisoner's dilemma defection that crowds out quality conversation
