As previously discussed, we're considering renaming the Warpcast app to Farcaster. Why? - Top priority is grow users on the protocol - The name split is extremely confusing for new users - So, we want to simplify How we're thinking about it - Rename Warpcast mobile app - warpcast.com to farcaster.xyz for web app - Open source both apps - No change protocol name, i.e. similar to Uniswap with app / protocol What we’re doing - Seeking input and want to make sure we understand concerns - Ultimately Varun and I will make a decision; it won’t be a vote. - Expect a decision in the next week or so; if yes, we will give plenty of notice and will take time to do this correctly / cleanly. How you can provide input - Developers: please reply here or feel free to reach out to me via direct message whether you agree or disagree. - Everyone else: you're free to offer input, but we will be weighting developer input a bit more since it has a bigger near-term impact on what they are building

with respect, i often use the split name as an example of the need for more focus on comms in crypto. it makes 0 sense to anyone normal it turned me off from using the app immediately and i’ve been advocating for consumer crypto since 2017 in no other industry would this ever have even been a point of discussion, I think it’s a great idea to change it and it’s rad of you to publicly engage in the discourse im long farcaster after reading this 💪🏼
