I just want enough Farcaster rewards so I can buy a dishwasher

great work, though don't have an enterprise sub atm so can't see the whole thing. a few thoughts:

- if you were charting ethereum protocol revenue like a token, you would never buy that chart. looks ugly.

- totally agree re: the rollup-centric roadmap, basically boils down to a lack of alignment between L2s and ethereum. running a popular L2 sequencer is quite profitable, so the incentive is strong for popular apps to own their stack and deploy their own chain.

- another big question on the horizon is how monad and megaeth will eat into ethereum's market share as they compete alongside solana and other high throughput chains.

we spoke previously about charting ETH/USD vs. avg gas, previously I believed that there was a plausible correlation between the two. looking at 2024 heading into 2025, I believe this is becoming less and less the case. haven't looked closely but you could argue that ETH's price action is becoming less correlated to its protocol revenue.

Roman recently had a whale donor fall through that almost funded the remainder of costs. With all the delays + developments around his case (including todays news) he desperately needs $2M to make it through. Full context:

Roman's legal team is running out of time and resources. His trial has been postponed to July 14th, 2025. This delay means more legal prep, more filings, and more hours for the defense team.

He needs $2M to get through the end of his trial. Here's the breakdown ⤵️ https://t.co/TTxzvF4Gpg

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.

a few notes from @brileigh and I's visit to the Ojas listening room in NYC

* Ojas and Devon Turnbull
before founding Ojas, Devon Turnbull studied at Parsons and adopted the tag "Ojas" for mixtapes, graffiti, flyers, etc. in 2003 he founded the streetwear label Nom de Guerre with some friends and over the next few years travelled frequently to Japan as he developed an interest in high-efficiency drivers, horns, and tube amplifiers.

in his spare time, he built Altec-inspired horn speakers for himself and friends which later became DIY flat-pack kits sold through Virgil Abloh's Canary Yellow platform. 

Nom de Guerre closed in 2013 and Turnbull turned his attention to Ojas full-time as an audio practice. by 2018 his custom systems found their way into stores like Supreme, venues like Public Records, and producer Mark Ronson's studio. in 2022 he produced Hi-Fi Listening Room Dream No. 1, an immersive installation that was first presented in Lisson Gallery (NYC, London) before touring to many other institutions.

Working on Farcaster and Warpcast. Longer thoughts at https://dwr.email

could write a whole thread on this given my background in film digitization.

a couple caveats:

- not all streams are created equal. sometimes you’re watching an ugly old transfer, other times a new UHD remaster in dolbyvision. very variable. disney+, netflix, and apple the leaders in quality imo, but still some bad apples here and there (pun intended).

- not all discs are created equally. you can also watch a bad transfer on blu-ray. not necessarily a guarantee of anything.

that said, in general:

- blu-ray discs don’t waver in quality in response to network conditions like streams do. for example, you’ll see consistently tight grain structure that doesn’t go softer/sharper or more/less apparent.

- good blu-ray players have more sophisticated HDR handling than any streaming method, which will help HDR content not get clipped/unnatural while retaining detail.

- blu-ray discs give you uncompressed audio, not lossy mp3 or aac, but this might only matter to you if you have a decent sound system.
