yesterday I created an mvp mini app for @trendcoins to enter base builder quest 4
trendcoins.replit.app
trendcoins takes trending google searches and automatically
✅ coins them
✅ casts them
✅ puts them into a dedicated miniapp where you can check out the actual news and trending search behind the coin
trendcoins itself is a somewhat satirical an art project — i don't think it will be the source of the next 1000x memecoin — but i think automated content pipelines like this are very useful to creators
take one thing — a trending google search, a podcast episode, a video, a blog post — and instantly create supporting materials for it like social posts and coins
i want to keep exploring in this direction and want to encourage others too as well, so the entire trendcoins repl has been made public

feel free to ask me any questions at all about it if you want to make your own miniapp and autocoiner 🫶
🔊 Base Builder Quest 4 🔊
build a mini app that explores new experiences with content coins.
there’s 2 ETH in prizes: 1 ETH for the winner and 1 ETH split by up to 4 finalists.
content coins are still in the experimentation phase, with many unexplored use cases. mini apps make it easy to launch and keep users engag
I am not a developer by trade but I did all this and you can too
Technical notes on @trendcoins for my builders ⚒️
works by grabbing the latest trending topics on google, picking a random one, processing it using ai, and sending the whole package to Zora
Gemini Flash 2.0 is used to create all the token details from the trend as well as the prompt for the image

I have “surreal” explicitly in my image creation prompt and the things it spits out are genuinely so good lmao
Genuinely delightful spins on the news of the day
The drawback is of asking for vivid, surreal (aka memorable and sticky) is that it ups the risk of OAI safety rejection when you send through the prompt
I played with this all a bit before turning toward the mini app yday and ultimately decided I can’t nerf the prompt 🥲
There are things I can do to improve reliability regardless but just didn’t so I could get the mini app out

………Mildly concerned why the <h3> that’s supposed to be in that screenshot isn’t in there oh no lol

Very cool!
I think tokenized trends or attention coins will be one of the next great new asset types in crypto.

this thesis is exactly what I wanted to play with here 😊
one thing that limits the ability to automate trends is simply the data sources
this would be cooler with social trends
but not a lot of great options for data
I want to do an iteration with one of the bootleg TikTok APIs
need Farcaster to hit pmf so I can use their open data 😊

You know we have a company in the Opacity ecosystem printing money on Amps but for Tiktok/Insta right?

This doesn't really seem related to automated content creation
This is a means to coordinate to manipulate platform algorithms

Ty ty
I have another project in this style planned
I am genuinely jazzed by the realization a non techie like me can build these pipelines 🥰
