P.S. — The most difficult part of building a consumer app is getting and retaining daily active users. Even more pressing for VC-backed apps (time preference is much higher). Farcaster likely needs to be 2 orders of magnitude larger before that user population is large enough for apps to be 100% focused on FC.

Other apps: @buoy — power user tool for search, paid @bountycaster — using Farcaster for distribution @caststorage — permissionlessly built on the protocol contract offering a cryptonative way to pay for storage

What is the next growth milestone for Farcaster for EOY? How do you get there with the current organic approach? Or is there a strategy for non-organic growth?

Idea: build content-oriented small & sweet product for ppl who love to read & interact w/ high quality contents/power users but too busy to follow up all the feeds. Assumption: may help new user onboard & dive in community. Wdyt. Love to hear ur thoughts.

My hunch: DAU focus is premature. The flywheel gets wild if Farcaster interest graph flourishes (metric: # daily reacts). For Warpcast, I'd likely focus on depth of social (metric: # daily mutual engagements, like reacts, DMs, or casts).

Helping the cause by onboarding regens to FC; we have builders and degens here, but regens (the 3rd subculture of eth/evm) are missing Created a /purple prop to change this: https://nouns.build/dao/base/0x8de71d80ee2c4700bc9d4f8031a2504ca93f7088/vote/0xb1a7cf56ad1862c3572deefbbe20cd0a3bc0bb18d567f0e81d05ce904028e8fc

I think it is interesting to assess the impact that #Degen has had on the social network. At this moment, the signaling of what generates rewards is driving a large part of the social network's activity. I believe it demonstrates that it is difficult to have initial traction without tokens.

Smart words. I'd add F. building tools that support the builders -- paid or open source. If open source, go on bounty ant grants hunting.
