I got an email from geico to update the odometer reading on my car. I switched to the Tesla app and then back to input the mileage. Done.

I didn't have to go the car or remember to put it into geico the next time I went for a drive. Brought me a tiny bit of joy.

Farcaster Pro update

A) The limited edition NFT will be airdropped early next week to the first 10,000 pro subscribers. It will appear in your in-app Farcaster wallet. You will be able to send it to another wallet.

B) We have 3 Pro subscriber benefits that will likely ship the week of June 16th:

1. 10K character casts

2. 4 embeds — originally it was going to be 4 images but we've expanded it to 4 embeds including images, videos, URLs, CAs and mini apps.

3. A new, previously announced feature: profile banner images

C) We'll have FIPs up later today for the proposed protocol implementations.

D) We're finalizing the Pro subscription contract on Base. It will accept USDC and allow for monthly or yearly subscriptions permissionlessly at the protocol, i.e. any app can allow Pro subscriptions.

There will be some clean up work to do in the Farcaster app to reflect monthly subscriptions. We don't have immediately plans to offer UX for monthly in-app but people will be able to build mini apps that do this.

airdrops are airdrops, criteria can be subjective. but you have to actually BUY the IPO shares.

It's as if tradfi actively finds new ways to be worse off than crypto.

@noiceapp has re-engineered how people pay and get paid by creating content, we dive into the details here

They use a full suite of Neynar products to interact with Farcaster: webhooks, kafka stream and managed signers

We're excited to continue shipping with them 🪐

211 shot rally!
To put this into perspective
- avg. shots / rally is slightly under 9
- 1 set has 21 points

They essentially played as many shots as most players would in the whole set for just this 1 point 🤯

Thinaah Muralitharan threw her racket in the air to give herself more recovery time, while Pearly Tan simply got down on all fours to try to catch her breath after the women's doubles duo survived a 211-shot rally at the Malaysia Masters badminton tournament on Thursday.

it's too late to throw a warning ⚠️ sign at this stage, we might as well keep going and see what happens

Neynar

If you want to subscribe to our Kafka data pipeline but don't want to pay for all of the messages you're not interested in, such as reactions, now you don't have to. In addition to our aggregated offering, we have broken out farcaster events into separate Kafka topics for users, casts, reactions, follows, and signers to save you $ and bandwidth. Reach out to @rish if you're interested!

> how does this compare to the gRPC event stream on snapchain nodes?

every message on neynar's streaming product is fully hydrated with the exact same objects (user, cast, etc.) that power our API. 
- a user object contains neynar user score, follow counts, etc.
- a cast object contains channel metadata, embedded cast data, etc.

the snapchain gRPC stream is better if you're looking for low-latency, raw protocol messages. it has added implemetation complexity to deal with multiple shards on the snapchain.

Farcaster Devs

real time streaming for farcaster messages just got much more affordable. pick the topics you care about instead of the full firehose of events.

Founders

We’re seeing all time highs of active developers on Neynar. Last high was around degen hype last year. We are about 7% higher now.

It's not apples-to-apples because we have a free tier now, compared to last year. That said,

- free tier likely helped get more developers active
- mini apps are working, I imagine Neynar numbers correlate to overall
network ATH in terms of developer activity

Do people actually think there will be 1,000 sign ups in the first day at $120?

Was thinking 500 or so pretty quickly and then a slow steady climb from there. 

Am I delusional?

degens hear limited edition NFT. it will sell out

Last I saw this it was jiggling to be tapped. That was 2023!

Cold Share vs Warm Share

Inspired by @farcaster’s Tip Tuesday, I’ve upgraded Dollarchain sharing.

Most mini apps use a basic composeCast to share — that’s a Cold Share.

I use @neynar’s replies & recasts API to surface people you’ve interacted with prior to sharing your mini app — that’s a Warm Share.

we have an API to get best friends for an fid in the backlog for adding social context to leaderboards and share components. 

in the interim though, the replies and recasts API is definitely a good proxy!

If you're struggling with updating your existing web app to be a mini app, or if you want to understand more about the bare minimum of what makes something a mini app, check out this guide in the @neynar docs:

https://docs.neynar.com/docs/convert-web-app-to-mini-app

It's been updated with React-based code examples, so converting to a mini app can be as simple as copying and pasting! 🪐

imo - all chains should be connected all at the same time :)

why do we need to switch chains at all? is this web3js's legacy?
