First, Farcaster isn’t built on Base, the registration data is actually on OP. Meanwhile, miniapps now support multiple major chains including ETH, Base, OP, Arbitrum, and newer additions like Monad and Celo. That said, Farcaster is often associated with Base, likely because of their close relationship, and many Base devs are active here. Still, many projects on Base continue to focus solely on Twitter, skipping Farcaster. The likely reason is what Wee Kee pointed out: fewer users mean lower traffic, and the ROI of building or operating here doesn’t seem high. From this angle, if Farcaster had more users and higher DAU, it might attract more devs. But the opposite is also true: only when more devs build here will more users come. That’s what Farcaster is trying to do, onboard more chains, attract more devs, and showcase what can happen when Farcaster social graph + Warplet + miniapps. But someone has to benefit first to prove the value. It’s still early, and it takes time.
