Warpcast -> Farcaster

We’re planning to rebrand on Friday.

Flashblocks make Base 10x faster.

We're starting to test Flashblocks in a staged rollout on Base, reducing effective block times from 2 seconds to 200 milliseconds.

Builders can integrate Flashblocks on testnet today to prepare for the full rollout.

Warpcast is being rebranded to Farcaster 

1. Mobile app will be called Farcaster 
2. The Arch logo will return
3. Website will move from warpcast.com to farcaster.xyz.
4. All links will be backwards compatible. No action needed. 

Will roll out this week or next, depending on app store reviews.

We're planning to move forward with rebranding the Warpcast mobile and web app to Farcaster.

1. Nothing is changing any time soon. We will take our time with this and have plenty of communication about it across multiple channels. The earliest the change will happen is mid-May, but a decent chance it happens in June.

2. We're going to work on a plan over the next 2 weeks and should have a plan by the next developer call on May 8, 2025. We will discuss on the call.

3. For developers: we're planning to open source the client monorepo— i.e. the mobile and web apps. Again, no timeline on this yet.

Why Warplet matters

1. Most people don’t have a crypto wallet.

2. On Farcaster, without a wallet, you’re missing a key feature—earning money just by engaging.

3. But if everyone who signs up gets a wallet, money can flow seamlessly through rewards, tips, or airdrops.

4. This means more people with balances, which benefits developers building onchain frames.

5. And when someone taps a frame, they can act onchain instantly.
