If I was running Merkle my #1 priority would be making it very easy to build standalone farcaster apps with free signups and no external wallet

Needing a wallet is the bigger issue than the fee but I agree that’s great

Ya so I also thought this and we built an entire FC mini app and then found out it’s not the same SDK as cb wallet mini apps 

Ran into issues with external wallet connect in FC mini app and abandoned it and now building a cb wallet mini apps 

@v might wanna add in FC mini app docs that it’s NOT the same as CB wallet SDK — I’ve had this convo 5 times now and degen ran into the same issue <3

Yeah option to use your own wallet is probably good.

What is a cb wallet mini app? They are all farcaster mini apps and work on both

Asking users to create a Farcaster wallet and use it for financial things is never going to work. It’s an inferior product and inferior social experience to all other options. 

What will actually work is Bade app mini apps and using cb wallet as the wallet 

Fc mini apps are broken with wallet connect which everyone wants to use and they don’t work with cb wallet connect which

I would not invest dev into fc mini apps over cb wallet mini apps

That’s a good take, I think it can unlock a whole wave of experimentation. But I’m curious, how’d you handle identity/auth in that setup…would you go custodial by default or something else?
