Farcaster

1/ How will Farcaster succeed if apps have to compete with Warpcast?

If there are enough daily active users of the protocol and the underlying data and APIs are actually permissionless, people will build new and interesting apps.

This has been the plan since the beginning (channels being a new thing along the way).

i’m standing fully behind @dwr.eth in this debate

there is many many many many people in the world and barrier to entry farcaster eco as a dev will imo decrease over time (through better infra and companies working on it)

as long as there are customers on the networks, new clients and experiments will be built

data layer Farcaster acts as the data layer, responsible for storing user categories, casts (Farcaster's version of tweets) and reactions (likes and retweets). This is facilitated through Hubs, a distributed network of servers that store and verify Farcaster data.
