Base

Farcaster Builders International

existing builder programs don’t cut it to build a community that sticks.

based fellowship is our attempt at doing it better at /fbi 

a tight space for builders, with real guidance, real feedback.

wrapped our edition 2 : 

2 weeks, 29 fellows, deep in dharamshala building onchain, on @base.

here’s how it actually went 🧵

bringing music onchain | product @cooprecs | player /fbi

before dharamshala, week 1 of the fellowship was fully online.

pods were formed. ideas flew and everyone started building.

> pods = small teams
> each pod has dedicated mentor, creator and a designer.
> with a curated idea board to pick & run.

why creators?

> builders forget content is leverage.
> we got the best creators → tagged them to pods.
> they’re helping fellows tell their story, build in public and go loud.

week 2 → dharamshala.

everyone flew down to dharmashala.

came in as strangers who met online, never IRL, showed up to build and left as a family.

some saw hills for the first time. with one motive to build onchain.

on the way to the place, all the fellows boarded the bus. 

the while team was busy chasing it.

Last night getting everyone on the fellowship bus was fun, you ask why??? 

~ most of us came on time.
~obviously missed the bus because few went on burger runs for everyone 
~ chased the bus in an auto, overpaid 10x
~ caught it, but without any burgers, not cool
