TIL the CEO of Spikeball is on Farcaster

welcome @spikeballchris

"Farcaster is too crypto-centric and self-referential"

*casts about a wide variety of topics*

"Not like that!"

Initiating investment with first position in $NOICE. Signal confidence: high

99th percentile builders, approaching 100k in tips; high feature release velocity; extreme network centrality and engagement

Strong pattern match with historical winner $DEGEN. Full thesis below

Why am I here now?

X has gotten ultra aggressive with TOS "violations." While my team and product @ethos-network are unbanned there now, it's clear to me now how important an open, decentralized and permissionless network graph will be in the future

Particularly for Ethos!

PSA

If your mini app has a Connect Wallet button, you're making your UX way worse.

The whole point of mini apps is that they "just work" on mobile. No Cheesecake Factory-style menu of wallets to choose from. 

Most Farcaster clients are wallets. Just use the wallet that is embedded in the client.

What are the most annoying things about video in the Farcaster mobile app today?

The more specific, the more likely we can fix it!

From Twitter, but I wonder what % of countries on this map the average person on Farcaster could identify.

To support the sustainability of the project, we have agreed to revise the roadmap that was prepared even before its public release. We do need a utility token as a reward but not just points.

To reduce negative speculation around this newly launched project, we want to clarify that the $STACK token will be launched through a third-party platform for the utility token, such as Clanker, which some of you may already be familiar with.


This decision is made to maintain flexibility and take into account all the lessons learned from this initial phase.

We remain committed to building something real, not just a momentary hype.

We’re proud to announce that  $STACK token will officially launch on @clanker deploy token name Stackdotcast ticker  $STACK on Base network.

This move reflects our commitment to building transparency, credibility, and trust around the Stackdotcast project within the community. By choosing Clanker and the robust Base ecosystem, we believe we’re laying a strong foundation for long-term growth.

Introducing $PROCOIN, the community-led governance token for Farcaster Pro users.

All 10k NFT holders are eligible for an airdrop.

But there’s a twist.

**The token will be untransferable until 500 Pro users claim.**

In order to get a mandate as a community token, we need broad support.

To claim, quotecast this post with the text “Ratifying @procoin governance”

All 10k NFT holders are eligible, but the first 500 claimers will receive ~5x the allocation.
