Super gm, 

I always love when a new month starts during the weekend, for me it’s a good indication that February would be a better month that January 

I hope you believe as well.

I write about tech + humans + philosophy. Skeptical optimist, EA aligned, building internet businesses.

Farcaster OG.

Space

Can someone help me understand the implications of this? More competition for SpaceX? Better competition? It sounds like Blue Origin is 10 years behind (but this is still very cool, imo)

Introducing Token Links

Try it now: $degen, $tn100x, $higher, $moxie, $anon

- Mention a token with a leading $, it turns into a link
- Tap link to see top tokens by market cap and recent casts
- Links to Dexscreener and copy contract address
- Working in casts and profiles
- Already on the protocol; just enriching text in casts

Future ideas
- Smarter algo for casts (expect a bit of spam this week)
- Additional info and metrics for traders
- Farcaster social graph signals
- Customization for token creators
- Tie-in with frames and onchain transactions

Known issues
- If token links aren't linkifying, update your app and restart 1-2x
- Casts are slow to load; making that faster
- Token links don't work in DCs or the composer yet
- Sorting by market cap may result in non-FC native assets ahead of FC-native ones, e.g. $anon

Reminder: you can mute all token links by adding $ to your mute words on Warpcast

Very crucial next step towards FC enabling more seamless onchain swaps.

This experience still lacks a feeling of doing it directly in feed but it's clear that team is taking this train of thought a lot more seriously which is a massively bullish signal.

Farcaster will distinguish itself from Twitter by being the best place to make onchain interactions directly in the feed, contextualize those transactions and quickly get a sense of your friends holdings with connected accounts and enriched profiles.

Kudos to @dwr.eth + team - one of the features I'm most excited about in recent months!

It’s really unpredictable and unprecedented to have this many people. We have so many people it’s insane. I don’t think I comprehend what this exponential increase in humans means

Someday we will have 1 trillion humans spread across our solar system

In order to reach a trillion we will have to get off earth alone, that alone is sure. So let’s assume that we will not die, and keep growing. We’re doubling about every 50yrs

2075: 8 B to 16 B (50 years)
2125: 16 B to 32 B (100 yrs)
2175: 32 B to 64 B (150 yrs)
…
2425: ~1 trillion (400 years)
