Trumpster, you’re absolutely nuking our bags. 🤦 Also if Greenland ever becomes the 51st state, what do we call it, “Greenies”?

One of the sad truths of the meme coin game (and plenty of “legit” projects too) is that a lot of teams pre-mint a big chunk of the supply for themselves, then spread it across hundreds or even thousands of wallets to make it hard to track. They’ll also make sure no single wallet holds much, so it looks like a fair dis... Show more

X shut down Kaito because it was an independent ad network built on top of X, and X doesn’t want to share ad revenue with anyone. Keeping ads in-house also lets them control pricing and keep the economics hidden, especially given how they’ve underpaid creators for years. And none of the bigger incentives change: influ...

So I guess there’s a rumor going around that Farcaster might get acquired. I have no insider info obviously, but we can at least look at where the chips have fallen. Farcaster has pivoted into trading. Base app has also pivoted into trading, so now they’re competitors. Farcaster has Clanker, Base has aligned with Zora... Show more

People ask why decentralized social beats centralized. This is why. Download the Degen app. What are you waiting for?

The Farcaster protocol could use an “edit post” feature. It could be as simple as a metadata tag on the original cast that points to a new cast hash, keeping the old cast as the canonical anchor. Clients could then choose whether to reconcile reactions and replies onto the edited version or keep them attached to the or... Show more

Base and Farcaster are trading apps now. Degen app is the last social-first frontier on Farcaster. Join us if you believe in decentralized social, owning your audience, and trading as a feature, not the core product. No algos deciding what you see.
