Degen

If you’re building a mini app for Farcaster, $DEGEN should be the default token. It’s widely held, fun to use, and drives way more engagement than USDC or WETH.

We dropped $100M+ in $DEGEN airdrops last year to Farcaster users. Happy to support you and help amplify, there's no downside to trying it.

Why are mini apps defaulting to USDC or WETH when $DEGEN is our native token? Top token on Base, brought most of us here. Should be the default. Devs like @dish @colin @tldr — what’s stopping us?

I think most of the top mini apps are using their own tokens strategically for their own model, most of which are Clankers.

$QR $NOICE $BETR etc.  they build attention loops by either getting people to hold a certain amount ($BETR, $NOICE) or rewarding people when they open the mini app ($QR).  and these attention loops help their own token's outlook. 

If there was a way to do something with Clanker it would be interesting.
