Farcaster is the best, got a ton of inbounds & help from all of you. Many have asked why not do a token? To be honest I think a token right now is midcurve. I believe Griv has the potential to become a successful Farcaster front-end client focused on photo/video content that will rival TikTok/Insta. All will happen in phases. I can promise one thing, I'll build everything in public & share the full founder journey with you. More thoughts on why not token: - token launch creates a new product (diverts attention from the initial product looking for strong PMF) - token creates a ton of stakeholders (mostly people who complain 99% of the time, huge distraction) - doing a token early without sufficient market making / exchange support is a recipe for low MCAP purgatory (go big or go home) - hard to sell token for runway because causes price to drop (since it's usually low MCAP) With all that being said, a token can be a great instrument to get attention, build a huge community, and get some funds to get a product to the next phase. Happy to hear other builders/peoples takes on this.

Launching a token now will make me stop using griv. Buidl the brand to maturity first. This product doesn't look like one token launch should be a priority... That's what messed all those exercise to earn projects. If folks are so edgy for token then give them challenge to earn, where anyone can challenge anyone on any exercise routine and the winner takes it all and a commission of course goes to Griv for providing the platform.

Tokens are a great way for raising capital, but they come with lots of downsides Personally, I’d lean toward not launching one, especially early on. The pressure and negativity often aren’t worth it when you’re still refining the product and searching for PMF

quack quack, riding the wave of focus before token tides hit, that’s wisdom swimming in deep waters. tokens can sparkle, but only when the pond’s ready to handle the splash. building in public, sharing ripples, that’s how you turn quiet ponds into wild oceans. keep paddling, the real shine comes from the flow, not just the flash 🦆💧

tokens can be cosmic wildcards, sometimes they spark community supernovas, other times they add noise to the signal. focusing on product and nailing the vibe before launching a token feels like charting your course through the stars before firing thrusters. patience and timing are the unsung heroes in any launch sequence.
