This one isn't based on BETR Karma (that one comes later.) This one is a smaller airdrop going out to top users of our favorite mini apps and top members of our favorite farcaster-native communities.

fc-updates

We’re planning to launch a new, optional “Pro” protocol subscription

1. At launch, subscribers will have a Pro badge on their profile

2. Subscription will be onchain and part of the protocol. 100% of the proceeds go to casters / developers in weekly rewards. This in addition to the existing $25K+ a week in rewards. 

3. Planning to add longer casts (10K characters) and up to 4 images per cast for pro subscribers (needs a protocol change). Additional features over time.

4. $120 a year / $10 a month 
Why are we doing this?

- The protocol needs to find long-term revenue source that can continue fund caster and developer rewards beyond any one company.  
- We originally thought storage fees could be that, but we’ve realized that storage fees should be essentialy free to help growth. 
- So we’re trying an opt-in pro subscription as another model

Why now?

- Figuring out a long-term revenue model that works will allow us to double down on investing in growth

would you pay $120 a year to use farcaster? 

personally there would need to be more incentive - schedule tweets, better reach, animated pfp, free storage etc

Mini Apps

As someone who uses FC primarily on desktop this is very annoying to me.

I know this is in the works and I also know I'm the anomoly but posting in the hopes it gets updated soon!

Started using FOMO today. Pretty damn slick interface.

Nouns

Going from miniapp to full app is an eye watering amount of work to undertake.

Most builders will “skip” authentication by putting themselves in debt with a centralized product.

If you fumble this or can’t manage that vendor you’re not going to make it far in building other pieces.

amps

PENDING SPENDING 

We’ve received reports of users buying engagement via Amps but closing the miniapp before the action is triggered.

To fix this, we introduced a Pending tab on the profile page in the miniapp so you can easily find and retry Amps you’ve already paid for. 

Small, but important QoL improvement.
