Are we casting better- or are we just better at the engagement games? 2025 brought the Warpcast Rewards Leaderboard to the ecosystem and it’s definitely changed the way people engage. DAU haven’t really changed. The numbers in January 2025 and May 2025 are pretty much the same, but there’s a drastic difference and how many orphaned casts are on the network. Orphaned casts are casts that get zero engagement: no likes, no replies, no recast. In January about 80% of cast on the network fit into this bucket, but today that number has changed dramatically and only 60% of the cast on the network are now orphaned. Has the leaderboard caused this behavioral shift? Have people learned to cast better and caught onto the Farcaster culture more quickly?

This was very thorough and informative. Thanks! I wish the new changes, the algorithm, be in favor of those who are trying hard to grow their account, not in a spammy way, of course. I personally suffered a lot.

I’ve seen a lot of folks say that this week has been harder. I’ve been sick so spending less time here so my engagement is suffering because I’m casting less. But when others notice it too, it’s worth chatting about.
