Haven’t done one of these in a while.

AMA!

What is your ideal vision of how TBA and Farcaster coexist in the next 6-12 months? 

Is the plan to be acquired? they seem wildly redundant and IMO that makes the addressable market/growth even smaller for Farcaster, given the marketing and money coinbase/base has. 

Perhaps im wrong and this question is dumb, but im asking anyway

For both apps, goal is to onboard more users.

I think each is targeting a different type of user.

thats an extremely fair point. Since base onboarded me, I have trouble looking past base and accepting other things exist. lol its something im working on

Plenty of differences in the product today, e.g. we support Solana, HyperEVM and Monad they don’t.

That last part is interesting. I'm sure its not something that can be explained by a simple FC reply, but i don't see how the targeting can be different if FC is targeting literally anyone who isn't currently on the app that has a heartbeat. Same with Base. I almost feel like both TBA and FC aren't in a position to be picky with targeting.  Any net new user to the onchain world is a DUB for both.

The only difference I could possibly think of would be: Base = onboard users who arent currently onchain.  FC = onboard web3 users who arent socially onchain. 

other than that minor nuance(which is pure speculation) I dont see how targeting could be different
