I disagree with @john I know it's easy to say on Farcaster itself, but X is way less corporate and to win over the Solana crowd it's a solid move

Hey Farcaster I always share news here before X so here it goes: 10K will be shutting down. However, WATCHCOIN has a lot of liquidity left, and we plan to airdrop WATCHCOIN to early 10K users next week who believed in us. Next, inspired by DEGEN, Believe & Noice (@tike goat) I'm working on a "thin" application that will be embedded on the bird app. DC me if you want to try it early.

Turns out the real 'composability' in crypto was just incumbents farming DeFi under the $HOOD

I'm still revising this thesis. I'll cast a new revised version this weekend. Either way, a new product pivot is coming from this thesis. If you're a large Farcaster account and want to learn more DM me.

Crypto is a backend technology. Robinhood launching its own chain—where they control token emission, redemption, UI, and distribution—says everything: no one cares about visible crypto apps. In fact, most people despise crypto apps. At best, they tolerate them when they’re invisible. Even if you’re a top-tier founder with $50M–$200M in funding, your flashy crypto consumer app won’t break 100K DAU, no matter what: - Without speculation, no one shows up. Worse: your users will try to speculate if you don't do it yourself to find a reason to stay on your app, with tokens like DEGEN ironically capturing more value than purple app it emerged from. - With speculation, founders are basically desperately trying to poach users from TikTok or X with free money. If that's your hook it just proves how little people care about your app and the spikes inevitably ends. It took me years to internalize this: web2 social media is already good enough for most. Crypto can't 10x it in a separate app. At least not as a GTM strategy. In 2020, ALEX coin was my breakout story. I raised $20K to escape socialist Paris and move to Silicon Valley to achieve my dreams of building a consumer app. But even ALEX was just the backend. That whole story played out through Twitter, Medium and news pieces about my journey; not one crypto app was popularized in this process. Later I raised $8M, and like @nikitabier said, I landed in a "golden jail", chasing PMF at any cost for an ambitious crypto app instead of seeing the obvious play. Now I do. My new thesis is crypto as backend rails embedded in existing web2 platforms. Excited to share my first product soon with this new thesis.
