The main event of Farcaster this week definitely seems to be farcon, but I do think it’s worth noting another milestone moment: a major global news breaking on Warpcast. 

I first found out about the Iberian blackout on here, thanks to casters in
Spain alerting me to the news. 

I wound up monitoring a lot of the heated debate that followed over the cause on X. But those early casts gave me a glimpse of how this could develop as a platform for real news.

also, a good insight in the comments - the primary sources were *masterfully* captured by pool photographers. not only do we have a worthwhile challenge to augment correspondence software, but I'd further and say farcaster inevitably ends up in the press pool itself. we should coordinate both challenges in that frame.

Feels like a glimpse into Farcaster’s future as a decentralized info layer. Huge moment

That’s huge do you think Farcaster could seriously rival X for breaking news in the future?

News ruins everything as journalists and politics follow closely behind.
