Farcaster

gm, some feedback on the Farcaster wallet as I’m trying out some games.

Would be great if the balance was unified across chains: ex why is USDC on Base different than the USDC on Arbitrum?
They should be treated the same from the UX perspective.

I deposited funds on Arbitrum but cannot use them in the games (I guess they are checking the balance on Base).

Thanks @dwr.eth keep rocking

Build pipelines. Pieces that you know you are missing in your road to the best apps

I think it’s all connected.

A chain (and the foundation that serves it) should do anything possible to let their apps thrive.

Be obsessed with apps success: make them easy to build, bring them the right assets, customers, shill them and what not.

Build pipelines that make builders succeed.

Sorry but thinking that foundations helping apps = shilling them on CT
is quite narrow minded.

Chains teams must bring business. And make it easy to do business on your chain.

Solana in the recent weeks brought stocks onchain with Kraken, partnered with Dubai Virtual Assets authority and got support from Farcaster.

They are releasing starter kits, fund crazy ideas that might turn into a next vertical, doing intros, lobbying.

Foundations must bring business, the Twitter shilling is just the tip of the iceberg.

What do ppl think about foundations playing active roles in shilling apps on their chain?

How else can apps get support?

What are some recent good examples of foundation support bringing good success to apps?

What about alternative means like broadly researching chain UX?

Deploying ETH is the bare minimum at this point. Look at the level of support and engagement the foundation of other chains (Solana, Monad, ecc) do for their apps.

Apps should always be at the center of any chain’s plan.
Appreciate this is an update for the protocol team only, but more focus on apps can only benefits the whole ethereum eco

I have this DM from @warpcast that I cannot read .
Anyone has the same issue?

This is actually happening, potentially before ~2031 that I expected at the time (though still years away). ~Infinite chains, ~infinite composability, ~infinite scalability, all verified on your phone with a single infinitely recursive ZKP - this remains the only way to global scale

Of course, in 2025, this is not the bottleneck, this was going to happen anyway. The real focus must be on stimulating demand - Ethereum L2s are barely saturating 3 blobs for 15+ months, and for 3+ years the industry at large is severely oversupplying blockspace, and the gap is ever widening. Building an infinite ocean is useless if you have a swimming pool's water to fill it with. But hey, I've beaten that dead horse for 2-3 years, no one (or very few) cared.

Absolutely, but staking for the sake of staking doesn’t lead anywhere.

It’s you need to make an impact for real people (and secure it with staking ecc). 
But the second is worthless without the first.

They already have them on L2s: cheap, almost instant txs.

Ok improving the stack, but it’s time to start focusing on the real use cases to get adoption.
And there’s plenty to explore (DeFi, DePIN, AI, …) - which is where other ecosystems are ahead of in terms of experimentation and adoption, and ultimately the thing that will matter the most.

Thanks @tim for the update. Genuine question: why there isn’t any focus on apps? On actual utility of the Ethereum protocol?

Same - Arbitrum, both at the DAO and OCL level, is changing approach. 2025 will be fun

Not clear to me if the benefits of being embedded into Warpcast and exposed to its community are worth the additional barriers for a new user to download Warpcast instead 😅
