If I buy a cast and the user neglects to reup their storage and the cast disappears, what happens to the NFT image uri?

Yeah hard to say how it’ll affect behavior here. Should be fun though. I imagine the OG casts with deep lore will attract immediate attention. Not sure what comes after that.

Yeah, some real questions here.

Another one: does this change how people engage with language on Farcaster?

Such as, if a cast includes a banger image, does that incentivize the caster to minimize the words—keep the caption short and vibe-heavy—to boost the chance it performs well as a collectible?

We’ve all seen how image-led posts dominate attention.
Now imagine that attention translates to bids.

Does that tilt casting away from storytelling, commentary, or conversation—and toward silent moodboards?

New mechanics introduce new meta. Let’s see where this one lands.

URI will still exist, NFTs are permanent even for deleted casts

If you ever need crazy optimized onchain NFTs look no further than @fiveoutofnine.eth!

Yep designed it so we can change it once we figure out the final state of this. Optimizing for shipping and learning.

Should be trivial to make the casts onchain SVGs and have the pfp and any accompanying images converted to base64 strings.

Hopefully the 721 contract can change the renderer!
