Your boy's first cast ☼ 

Our Poolsuite V3 apps & site dropped last week and multiple people messaged to say it'd make a great mini app on here

Can someone explain to me why that'd be good? I'm super out of the loop but down to learn

Welcome! Music/media mini apps are especially nice because they can play in the background and dock in the sidebar on web, so you can listen as you scroll. Three good examples are @acidtest @pinetree and /tortoise. I was just wishing there was a Poolsuite FM mini app.

We want it to be really easy to convert an existing external app into a mini app, ideally just a few lines of code. (We're getting close).

For an app like Poolsuite that already exists independent of Farcaster, I'd  use a mini app in a few ways:

1) top of funnel for finding new users from Farcaster
2) use the social graph for social experiences (find other members, social listening, stuff like that). in most apps "connected wallet address" is totally devoid of social context, but not on FC
3) for reengagement through notifications. (use sparingly). almost like a newsletter.

@linda and I would love to chat!

Other useful things:

A wallet is automatically connected so it's easy to do payments and transactions. We have hundreds of thousands of funded wallets with an aggregate balance of many millions of dollars.

You get rich social graph data about the user, their friends and followers, and their activity.

You can send native notifications to reengage your users.

Sharing embeds back to the feed drives organic discovery of your app.
