🚥  Let's talk about the Farcaster feed 🚥

It delivers highly relevant content to users. It does this job well.

However, it also narrows and flattens the experience.

It results in much highly relevant content *not* reaching users.

It makes valid assumptions about what you want to see and who you want to engage with and takes that to the extreme. 

With some exceptions, it progressively homogenizes your content consumption, unless you make specific efforts to break the pattern. 

It does this for a completely sensical reason. People are lazy and unwilling to put in serious work to curate their own experiences.

How do we break that mold?

Channels were an attempt at this. Segment content by subject or community and users have alternative feeds to consume.

One challenge with this approach is that people remain lazy. They just scroll the main feed anyway.

An additional challenge is that curation-by-commitee removes agency. If twenty people have channel-posting rights, the whole network might as well. No one feels personal ownership over curation quality.

With that in mind, we're introducing the Procoin Curation Protocol (PCP) as an alternative to the main feed.

We think Farcaster deserves its Tumblr era -- an experience with 1000 feeds managed by 1000 curators, each with their own quirks and creativities. 

But as we know, no one in crypto raises an eyelid without profit motives. And why should they? Curation is hard work. And consumption is a zero-sum endeavor.

The PCP provides a path for curators to earn from their hard work from day one. It creates a system for speculators to earn profit by discovering and amplifying good curators. Finally, it facilitates broad buy-in among creators by giving them upside in curators' feeds. 

The contracts are in audit. The miniapp is deep in development.

We have a community of curators in a groupchat learning about the system and preparing the themes they plan to curate around. Let me know if you're interested in participating.

Follow @procoin for updates. Launching soon

it's onchain summer

time to bring the world onchain.

More details coming on our forthcoming mini app this week

We're building a new model for curation on Farcaster where curators can earn for their work and traders can profit from identifying talented curators

See example on how to stake via Auto MaxLock Mode below:

Moca Foundation has announced that it will launch Moca Chain, a Layer 1 blockchain built specifically for identity and user data. ⛓️

Moca Chain will support the development of identity protocols to enable individuals, devices, and AI agents to control, unify, and verify their digital credentials without relying on centralized platforms, and accelerate user-centric growth via integrations with consumer applications. 

Moca Chain testnet and mainnet are expected to launch in Q3 and Q4 2025, respectively.

This week $TIPN Earn goes live

If you’re tipn USDC, you’ll earn $TIPN 

And if you’re earning $TIPN, you can stake it to earn USDC ♻️

The best thing about Farcaster is that it’s an open backend that can be used to create many different kinds of frontends.

The initial Twitter clone flagship app shows how to use accounts, posts, likes, a feed, and other tools. And it also packages a wallet, embedded apps, and soon DMs.

But it’s only partially an app. It’s really a dev kit. Showing the sophistication of what can be built.

Missing the 2021 NFT days 😅

Was it noisy? Yes, but creativity was off the charts

🚨 SECURITY ALERT for All Crypto Users 🚨

It looks like CoinMarketCap is currently showing a pop-up asking users to “Verify Your Wallet” when visiting the site.

⚠️ DO NOT click it. DO NOT connect your wallet.

These types of pop-ups are almost always scams or drainers trying to steal your crypto by tricking you into revealing your seed phrase or giving access to your wallet.

Important Reminder:
🔹 NEVER “verify” your wallet on random pop-ups.
🔹 NEVER share your seed phrase with anyone.
🔹 ALWAYS use official wallet apps and websites.
🔹 When in doubt, close the tab and double-check from a trusted source.

Let’s protect each other.
