I once met Cuba Gooding Jr. at a hotel bar in LA. My buddy didn’t believe it was him, but I knew it was, so there was only one way to find out. I went and said hello and did a little Radio impression. Just kidding about the Radio impression. I did not do that. But i did say actually say hello and we had a quality conversation actually. To the point where I felt comfortable asking if he wanted to get dinner with our significant others in Miami where i was living at the time and he had a place too he said. He basically moved the conversation in a different direction as what I took to be a polite decline but I would not have asked that if it was not a really chill convo. You dont have to believe me but I know. Imagine a double date with him and his wife lol. Onboard him to FC haha. Legit think it would have been a great time for all but alas it will never happen, unfortunately. Still was cool to meet. Oh I just remembered the impression I actually did do was Show Me The Money from Jerry McGuire. Respectfully.

I'm scheduling a podcast with Seong Lee, Head of Product at Robinhood Crypto.
Robinhood leadership rarely does podcasts, so I'm excited to talk with Seong about the successful launch of Robinhood Chain and their strategy to bring Robinhood's 27M+ users onchain.
Should be a fun one!

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. Download now & DM me for a code: apps.apple.com/us/app/%24qr/id6747148490

Introducing: Sovereignty (v2)
Sovereignty is an internet-based union of sovereign individuals exploring the potential of collective action, founded on Farcaster.
We just shipped the v2 of our mini app linked below. Check it out.
Context:
10 days ago, we launched the @sovereignty mini app. We already have 987 farcasters on our notification distribution as well as 767 farcasters who gave us permissions to apply likes and/or recasts on their behalf.
Together, our growing notification distribution and permissions give us the ability to align support for casts and tweets from Sovereignty members.
We can do this by directly applying likes and recasts for casts, and by sending a notification encouraging our members' support for tweets.
Anyone can submit a request for a boost on their cast or tweet via the @sovereignty mini app. Just click the "Submit Request" button at the bottom. There is no cost to submitting a request or receiving a boost.
I will be reviewing these requests personally and approving ones from members in good standing that I think are most worthy of our support.
A good example of a request we would likely support is a pro-Farcaster tweet from someone like @linda or @tldr. Positive tweets about Farcaster benefit the network that we are all part of. Another example could be a tweet sharing your perspective on @sovereignty itself, but it doesn't have to be so obviously aligned as these examples. Feel free to submit any cast or tweet that you would like to have supported for now and I can share more guidelines or principles as they emerge over time.
As a reminder, you may revoke the signer permissions, turn off notifications, and/or remove this mini app at any time, for any reason. This is fully an opt-in experiment. If you don't like it, don't participate.
For the rest of you, welcome to Sovereignty.
