I am thrilled to announce $QR is no longer just a mini app. Many months in the making, the $QR app is now live on iOS! Welcome Bonus: for a limited time only, we're offering new users a 100,000 $QR welcome bonus when you download the iOS app. Download in the App Store and DM me for an invite code: apps.apple.com/us/app/%24qr/id6747148490 ----------------------------------------------------------- Context: $QR is the #1 mini app on Farcaster. We have generated $200,000+ in auction revenue from $950,000+ in bids on 355 auctions in 355 days. And we have distributed more than $55,000 worth of $QR to Farcaster users through daily rewards for checking out the winning links every day. $QR has been ranked #1 on the mini apps leaderboard for many more days than any other mini app since it launched about a year ago, including 42 out of 55 days so far this year. But while it has been dominant here on Farcaster, this place remains relatively small. At Farcaster's current size, the upside for $QR on this platform alone would be limited to something between a double digit growth percentage (<100%) and a single digit growth multiple (2-3x). We are in the business of trying to grow by orders of magnitude – first 10x, then 100x, then 1,000x – and so the next step and #1 priority for $QR has been obvious for months. I’ve said publicly that we needed to expand beyond Farcaster. Launching this iOS app is the most important step forward towards doing that, and we are very excited about its potential. We have had a website which functions similarly to the mini app since day one, and we have since launched our mini app on the Base app and the World app in addition to Farcaster, but none of these platforms have near-term potential anywhere close to that of an iOS app. The reason is simple. iOS is the only platform which enables the same fundamental flows that have worked so well for us on Farcaster in an app that is accessible to 10,000x as many people. Any legit app should be available in The App Store. Today, $QR becomes legit. Thank you for your support as we begin this exciting new chapter. The app is invite-only to start.

WHY I'M TRADING LESS I have been doing less trading because, while it is quick & easy to know when I want to buy, that buy action comes batched together with the need to watch and sell smartly if I want to do well. And I don't really like watching charts or figuring out when to sell. It feels like a waste of my time relative to the opportunity cost of working on my own projects for example. So as tempting as it is to buy tokens when I see them and think they are going to go up in the hours/days to come, I have tried to resist doing so to protect myself from the time/attention suck that comes with it. Of course, if I see something at a good value that I think I would want to hold for a long time, like months or years, then that looks more like an investment than a trade, and I will still pull the trigger on that. I enjoy investing and find it to be a worthwhile use of my time. Investing is in large part what has given me the freedom and flexibility to have as much control over what I do with my time as I've had over the last several years, outside of ~4 years of full-time employment. So I'm still investing, just slowing it down a bit on the trading. And that makes it sound like I was trading a lot, which I really wasn't, but it was seemingly influencing an outsized amount of my time despite not at all being my primary focus. Those are not the kinds of activities I like to do.
