Degen

This kind of thing always gets me. I’m literally right here, willing to help promote your mini app, grant you some $DEGEN, and support your success, if you’re a top-ranking mini app, just make $DEGEN the default currency.

Circle is a giant corporation. They do business with Coinbase. They’re never going to show up and support you. We will. It’s your call—but if you're choosing between $DEGEN and USDC, think about this: one side gives you a whole community ready to back you, share your app, and create a viral loop. The other side gives you… what exactly? “Widely distributed”? So is $DEGEN.

The reality is, you’re building for Farcaster, not for the masses right now. And the biggest community on Farcaster is Degen. If you’re ignoring that, you’re missing the whole picture.

We could all win here. Just don’t sleep on the support right in front of you.

Not really bullish on this latest degen messaging.

I get that it’s beneficial to $degen/@jacek to be considered the default token of FC, but passing judgement on apps if they don’t is not the way.

I’m sure some mini apps will take the $degen grant and make it the default token for a month, but it’s going to take more than “$degen is the mcdonalds of farcaster” to make it the default token for longer.

Appreciate it. I just get frustrated when I see people not using $DEGEN in use cases that are clearly built for it. I feel like it’s my responsibility to make sure $DEGEN gets integrated wherever I feel it fits.

Didn’t say you weren’t allowed to have an opinion nor did I say you were the bad guy.  I was just sharing my opinion as a long-time modest holder of $degen.

It’s your token, do what you want.

You don’t have to like the message, I’m allowed to have an opinion. I’ve helped tons of devs, added $degen, given support. But when I ask for something back, like making degen default, I’m suddenly the bad guy? Make it default, get promo + $$, build the flywheel. Simple.
