farcaster is not launching a token.
the token talk circulating right now is tied to hypersnap, a fork of the farcaster protocol. the hypersnap team has been referring to their token as a "farcaster token". understandably this has caused confusion for the broader network who don't follow the technical aspects of the protocol.
to be clear, this isn't a comment on the fork effort. we just don't want the speculation to continue bringing noise we don't want here: bots, farmers, and scam accounts that drag down the experience for everyone.
so if you're joining the farcaster app today in anticipation of a token, there is no farcaster protocol token drop. sharing the facts lets us get back to our main focus: building a better network.
