Additional info on on Farcaster Pro launch
1. Tuesday May 27 at 1pm Pacific (no earlier, may be a little later)
2. We will have an in-app banner and in-app notification. No push notification. Notifications won’t all happen at the same time. There are 10,000 NFTs, you’ll be fine. :)
3. One $120 subscription per FID. Remember, it’s a subscription that gives you an NFT as one of the benefits, not an NFT that gives you a subscription. No multi year buys.
4. The NFT is from a Farcaster-native artist to be revealed soon! It’s the same NFT for all 10,000, i.e. this is not a pfp type project. NFT will not be immediately available, will be airdropped later.
5. You either pay entirely in 120 USDC or 12,000 warps. We’re only using warps to help people have a reason to spend existing balances. We’re still slowly moving away from using warps.
6. It’s an optional subscription. If you don’t like it, don’t subscribe. It has no impact on your reach, visibility or rewards. 127 replies

A fun math aside, on the idea of splitting a large zk proving workload between multiple provers.
Suppose you have N provers, and you have a proving workload that you split into N parts (so, one part per prover). You require provers to pre-register, but registration is open-access.
Suppose you have a constant fault rate (eg. 1/5 of registered provers fail). Provers expect to complete in one round (eg. 3s). If one prover fails, other provers have to come in and re-prove that load. How many rounds does it take for the entire workload to get proven?
Answer: log*(N)
(yes, that's the iterated-log function)
Why:
In the first round, you go from N unproven workloads to N/5 unproven workloads
In the second round, each remaining workload gets assigned 5 provers, so per-workload failure rate becomes 1 in 5^5. So you go to N / 5 / 5^5 unproven workloads
In the third round, each remaining workload gets assigned ~5^5 provers, so failure rate is 1 in 5^(5^5). So you go to N / 5 / 5^5 / 5^(5^5) unproven workloads 20 replies
