Farcaster

interesting farcaster use case: i've short term rented my apt 2/2 times in the last month to people on farcaster

1. high social trust / validation -> either already knew & trusted them or was able to easily check with a few friends to validate that they're a responsible individual
2. easy cross border payments -> one was canadian, one indian. trying to do international transfers would have been a pain in the ass and taken forever. here they sent my warplet a test txn and then transferred rent seamlessly in USDC + i can return security deposits just as easily
3. consumer crypto people have high demand for being in nyc and higher degree of flexibility than my normie friends -> when i made same posts on my private IG, there was a lot more interest but hard to find the perfect fit as i ideally wanted someone to take the full dates

anyway thought that was interesting just sharing farcaster is gonna be craigslist then dating app lfg

I’ve told you before Dan, the real theme is actually “Farcaster the everything place”

airbnb, google reviews of places, meetup, maybe even “get your guide”

all make a lot of sense here imo - have been met up w these farcasters in cdmx and it’s been a great time

Farcaster is shaping up to be more than just a platform. Excited to see where this goes!

Yesterday someone mentioned using fb marketplace and I immediately thought about a fc marketplace app.. but I don’t think the user base numbers and geo decentralization would help in real world items trades
