back in november, no one on twitter knew about farcaster. by december, ct transplants of two kinds began arriving, drawn like moths to our bright, beaming shitcoins: >profiteers, inspired by $POINTS (then $DEGEN) and the farcaster narrative >tourists, who follow profiteers but have no skin in the game the ct transplant tourists were gone by May/ June. the ct transplant profiteers who haven't left are still churning and will exit by end-of-year. their fortunes ride or die with twitter, whether they realize it or not. markers: >exited farcaster social tokens (all at once or progressively, disillusioned) >out of alignment with native farcaster token economy (no tribe) >pontificated often and loudly on why: [insert reasons here, usual blah blah] >theatrical pivot to alternative crypto scenes (Solana, usually) risk: >ct profiteers are habitually toxic: their farcaster shitcoin profits were less than they wanted (of course) and that makes them bitter and unneighborly. fascinating to watch play out, tho 馃嵖

I followed these users on Twitter for three years. I had very little interaction with them. By interaction, I mean that I had practically no strong relationships like the ones that are built. I tried to go back just to see how it was, but it was the same or worse. I don't know what they're doing over there. I tried to talk to them to find out why they left Farcaster. I didn't get a response. You're right.

they talk "down" -- ie, they're here for YOU to engage with them so they grow and profit. they will NOT pivot to actual participation; that takes too much work, nuance, and care. they're profiteers: care is not their bailiwick.
