There will likely be a bunch of complaints this week about "too much financialization of Farcaster" wrt channel passes. 1. It's still an experiment (why they aren't decentralized) 2. You're free to create a channel without a pass, i.e. free 3. We will have a way to gift passes to people for free

Longer term, assuming the experiment works, we plan to implement onchain as part of the protocol. The goals with channel passes: 1. Make it simple to acquire or gift 2. Make it expensive / annoying for bots and spam, esp. in channels with thousands of followers 3. Decentralizable

If it is for free, it’s mostly spammed

A degree of centralisation is good for now. Will be cool to have a “vouch for” to join feature, so apart from passes, someone validates for new joiner. This may reduce the occurrence of bots and anyone found vouching for bots, can be removed as well.

What’s the original goal of passes? (Don’t know if you can see this as I am not a power user) If the goal is genuine (which I can’t see why it wouldn’t be) then communicate the goal, and all is well. At first, it seems sketchy to me. But I am a user. Not a dev. This is far from my place. Just curious.

I think it's important to remember that Farcaster is still in the experimental phase, so it's natural that there will be some growing pains. Decentralization may come in time, but for now, let's see how this experiment unfolds. 🔵🔵

Ok unpopular opp, still gonna voice it: your mission is to open web3 up to mainstream, as you stated. Financialising everything is absolutely not mainstream and not everyone is here to make money, albeit the echo chamber boys signal differently.

It's fine to try what works and what not in order to get what works best. We need a place that, once well optimized, will not have the same problems the other platforms have. keep going!

I think your third comment is a very helpful addition as channel owners can just include all previous participants and start "charging" on a go-forward basis. Would this be an individualized process for gifting passes that may be too onerous on channel hosts though?

I just love to see that you guys are building and experimenting. I know that that's probably not how you can scale to a 1B company, but hopefully you'll have a close to perfect system in place, once you hit that 1B valuation! ;)
