Extending FIDs beyond just “users” is super powerful! We should treat FIDs as universal primitives and rename UserAddBody to ArtifactAddBody, a more generalizable entity type. Users and channels already share common metadata (PFP, bio, URL, handle/channel ID) Every Artifact could: - Have its own authored cast feed. - Aggregate a second feed from casts that reference its FID (as in FIP-2). This effectively creates a Farcaster Wall, like Facebook’s timeline, where anyone can cast to an Artifact by including its FID in parent_url. Benefits: Unified metadata, Native support for ownership of channels, no link spec changes. Verifications could also extend beyond individuals (e.g., mod assignments) Maybe we might want to add a definition type in ArtifactAddBody that dictates where its user, channel, etc, so clients know how to render it. You also solve for announcement in this case, Anything casted by the Artifact is an announcement CC: @sahil @moe

B Onboarding users into niche communities fuels bottom-up growth. Hashtags are pretty historic and doesn't solve for "ownership" channel owners/mods is a distinct persona and should be thought for differently. With over 9,500 channel mods today, their contributions are crucial for Farcasters growth, not just through content, but by engaging users who wouldn’t gain visibility on the main feed or weekly rewards (e.g. @inceptionally with ITAP airdrops, @humpty.eth with creators, @pichi with anime fans, @ashmoney.eth and @kmacb.eth with football fans) Ownership of Channels and Onboarding of net new users directly into channels is an imp growth lever imo

Hey, nope Cura doesn't have any such options to ban users in channel Channel Mods and Owners can ban/unban members via warpcast/farcaster directly https://farcaster.xyz/~/channel/degen/settings/banned-users

Don't you think its more fluid? A follower can becomes a member and vice-versa, right?

If you are running a "public" channel on Farcaster, how do you'll think about the distinction between followers and members? CC: @nonlinear.eth @ted @sahil @inceptionally @pichi @anmworld3

Cura makes it easy to discover the best content and contributors in any Farcaster channel through OpenRank-powered leaderboards. Cast, engage, and climb your way to the top — weekly and lifetime scores help surface signal, reward participation, and distribute tokens to the real MVPs. @dharmi @cura Live at the Farcaster Mini App Spotlight presented by Seed Club & Monad with support from LayerZero

porto, coinbase smart wallets, and privy all seem to be building similar/adj tech to solve for "wallet UX" from different angles. but warpcast wallet could be the quiet disruptor, doubling down on having funded wallets and being the gateway to do things on-chain.

extremely cool visualization of Farcaster economic activity by @dharmi. I am the "ECM" node in here (one of my alts, for some reason it picked up the wrong display name) https://x.com/DharmiKumbhani/status/1920487891186147652

Thanks for sharing here! just shows one more reason why it makes sense for chains to be farcaster aligned hmm interesting, i cross-checked my display name and it seemed to have taken the right one, will have to debug on dune to understand why did it take ECM for you, thanks for pointing it out :)
