gm. A few people, including @juli, have asked about creating an official group chat for Reply's core supporters. Honestly, I've been hesitant. My biggest fear is creating a space that devolves into just price talk. That would drain energy and distract from the real mission of building a useful product. My time is best spent in the code, not moderating a chat all day. But I can't ignore the other side of the coin. The amount of brilliant feedback, feature ideas, and strategic insights I get from this community is incredible. A dedicated space for the true believers to connect and brainstorm could be a superpower for the project. This brings me back to an idea that's been on the long-term roadmap for a while: token-gated group chats built directly into Reply. I'd always thought of this as a feature for other communities to use. But this recent feedback makes me think the first and most important use case should be for our own. This feels right. We would be eating our own dog food - using our own future product to build our own community. It would keep the conversation focused within the context of the app we're all building together. This moves the "Group Chat" feature much higher up my priority list. I'm still focused on the AMA flow first, but this feels like the clear next step. Curious to hear your thoughts. Does this feel like the right way to build our community hub?

I like when Teams build what they - as a project, community - need themselves and productize it later. Hence, I think your approach can be very valuable long-term. However, I‘ve also seen many projects focus too much on great solutions vs offering stakeholders, community, project, team what they actually need &or want at the Moment for much less effort. low-hanging fruit to go from 0.1 to 1 and 2.. 1️⃣ farcaster chat for quality feedback can be launched instantly 2️⃣ telegram chat for price & chit chat can be launched within minutes and reach other crypto folks (without you spending too much time on it. Maybe someone wants to help, run & moderate it?)

Having been in a few other gc’s with “serious” builders, especially when farcaster users, my experience is there tends to be a level of respect and self-moderation among members to keep it feedback oriented. Bracky group, albeit very different product, is pure good vibes and infrequently ~positive~ coin talk. Maybe @tldr has a thought on how that vibe was curated?

Have had this idea suggested by a few folks for Tipn too And have punted on creating cuz of time:benefit trade offs But a token gated, client-agnostic group chat would be a great middle ground that would be a no brainer to set up once it’s created

A group chat would be a great way to connect beyond the tl, some people would rather chat than post. If you do proceed with the idea of the GC I'm open to being a moderator 🫡 Lmk what you think 🤝 I'd love to go beyond holding tokens to offering value 💜

You’re basically saying Let’s build the community inside the product, not on some third-party island. That’s how you strengthen both

keeping it in-app feels way better than another random chat to babysit 🙌

Love this approach, building the chat inside Reply keeps it focused and true to the mission. Excited for what’s next
