the best part of farcaster? you don’t need followers to get reach casts show up in global, replies actually get seen, and your 3rd post can hit harder than someone’s 300th on X it rewards rhythm, not clout that’s why builders stay here longer

building full products feels kinda outdated now on farcaster, minapps are the new meta tiny tools, built fast, plugged straight into the feed not trying to be platforms - just solving something small that clicks less launch, more loop

kinda crazy how farcaster just works no need to balance “crypto you” and “irl you” everyone’s already deep in it on twitter you post a thread and wonder who you’re alienating on farcaster you just talk and it lands where it should maybe that’s why it feels lighter no audience gymnastics, just crypto ppl talking like they mean it

in web3, the most underrated strategy is just… being nice answer questions give people credit share what you know you don’t need a funnel if people actually like you

so true. it’s wild how much sharper your thinking gets after just 48h off the feed. crypto tricks you into thinking you’ll miss something, but most of it’s just noise in disguise. rest is alpha fr

farcaster isn't growing fast but it's growing right you can actually reply to people and they’ll reply back no bots, no clout-chasing, no algo bait just humans being online on purpose

some people treat farcaster as just another place to post but it becomes a lot more fun when you use it to think out loud, test things, build publicly you start to care less about reach and more about who is building around you that's when it happens not a platform - a shared sandbox

yep, makes sense. if the goal’s to get users, just focus on who’s most likely to stick around. whether they dump or not doesn’t matter much if they never come back anyway

early marketing isn’t about getting big numbers it’s about finding your people most of them won’t come from ads or reach they’ll show up because something you said clicked so don’t chase the crowd talk to the weird few who get it first

thinking of trying something fun with our Farcaster crew a crypto diary. you just post small updates about your day - what you traded, what you built, what you aped or regretted. it saves them like a log after a week, you get a public little recap. your own week onchain. kinda reputation, kinda fun memory lane. zero farming, zero pressure. just something to show you’re alive in the space could be a cool experiment?

that’s actually a gamechanger for onboarding at scale — especially for community growth stuff where reach > value per drop. have you seen any projects already doing creative things with zk compressed airdrops?

gotta be user A no point dropping to someone who’s just gonna dump and dip user A at least shows signs they might actually stick around and mess with the product airdrop’s not a payout - it’s bait for a real user

projects don’t go viral people do if you’re not building in a way that gives your earliest supporters something to carry, then don’t act surprised when nobody shows up every breakout app starts with a groupchat, a meme, or a friend who won’t shut up about it

Self nominating for the following: My articles including: The Unwritten Rules of Farcarster, Avoiding Spam Labels, How to Be a Good Caster, How to Save Your Friends from Spam Jail, etc. My weekly audio space: The State of the Union (formerly Power Hour) where we chat all the changes on Farcaster and how to navigate the app to be successful. #farcasterrpgfspring2025 *I forgot the hashtag and feel dumb reposting this* https://paragraph.com/@pichi/the-unwritten-rules-of-warpcast-avoiding-spam-labels
