It's now possible to analyze Farcaster's social graph via interactive network graph visualization https://maps.socialforensics.com/farcaster/#dwr.eth

Desktop viewing experience is strongly recommended (mobile UX for these maps simply isn't the same)

Zoom in, zoom out

Explore, have fun!

you should make this into a vertical video and describe what you’re doing in a voice over :)

FYI basic filtering across Legend labels has been added via eye-cons

Dinner last night with @stephancill & @runninyeti.eth was epic

Was also great to finally meet @zkchun.eth IRL (and thanks again for the drinks!)

This is a @stephancill & @runninyeti.eth appreciation cast

Two of the best folks here imo!

Building /indexing; love your data again. Probably also running 🏃‍♀️

pretty clear who's here to grow community vs. who's here to grow their bags

yes, it's possible to (genuinely) do both.. but it's certainly rare

Farcaster

So I've asked ChatGPT to analyse the data from the Rewards Leaderboard Top 10 I shared yesterday (thanks for the tip @dosir). This is what it came up with

Should we do this again next week?

📊 Key Insights
- High concentration of influence and interaction among top leaderboard creators and their superfans — with some appearing as top fans for 5+ creators.

- A potentially self-reinforcing system — those at the top engage with one another and remain highly visible.

- New reward logic could reduce “circular value exchange” — ideally diversifying who earns and who gets seen.

- Some users (like monadver, ejire5, gfam) may be acting like “engagement miners”, systematically liking/commenting on top creators.

✅ Suggestions (If You're Evaluating the System)
- Introduce diminishing returns on repeated engagement from the same user to the same creator.

- Reward diversity of fans — e.g. reward creators who attract engagement from new or varied FIDs.

- Visibility of top fans could itself become a reward metric, encouraging healthy discovery vs mutual reinforcement.

Science

I spoke with the @hairdao founder today. It truly is a prime example of decentralized organization and the drive to succeed.

@dwr.eth was an early member and helped collect hair follicles for research.

It’s truly amazing what a decentralized future can bring.

In a past life (2015 to 2017), I spent a hell of a lot of time creating video content

It’s hard work 

Far more difficult than sharing your thoughts via text-based format

Unless this place grows materially, it’s going to be extremely difficult to convince (real) video content creators to use purple app

Rewards earned is incorrect for me (and anyone else who has opted not to share private data with Merkle for 1099s)

It resets back to $600 every week (after briefly reflecting most recent week's earnings)
