Creator rewards algorithm will be updated later today. The main change is that repeat engagement from the same user over the week will give you fewer points than it used to. Scores will go down a little bit as a result of this change.

Shifts in market participants could significantly affect crypto prices in 2025. If institutional investors increase their involvement, spurred by favorable regulations and technological advancements, demand might rise, potentially pushing prices higher. Conversely, a surge in retail investors or stricter regulations could amplify volatility, causing unpredictable price swings. Global economic instability might drive more people to crypto as a hedge, further impacting prices. Additionally, changes in miners’ or whales’ behavior—such as miners selling more due to rising costs—could exert downward pressure. However, the crypto market’s unpredictability means these are only possible scenarios, with actual outcomes depending on a complex mix of factors.

The reason I draw parallels to the hobby computer industry is because the same kind of niche user base exists: people who are willing to put up with super leaky abstractions, exposed wires and rough edges, to make a spreadsheet or draw a circle. Much like Apple's vision of the "bicycle for the mind" of personal computing, crypto needs its own story to tell. And money isn't compelling enough, that's just an application. If you were to distill the unique attributes of crypto, and then amplify that sole distillation into a single message, as what is the ultimate purpose of crypto? You would say that it gives you autonomy, freedom to move, to interact across borders, with a unified store of trust. If personal computers took off because they were the "bicycle for the mind", crypto will take off as the "passport for the mind"

seeing many people share that they subscribed to Farcaster Pro bc they want to*: 1) reinvest in themselves and the platform 2) support other users — devs, creatives, writers, poasters, artists, etc — through the growing rewards confirms my belief that farcaster is the most prosocial social network. grateful ✨

In 2025, the most innovative airdrop mechanism was introduced by Ethos, revolutionizing token distribution in the cryptocurrency space. Unlike traditional airdrops that often rely on token holdings or random selection, Ethos implemented a system centered on "reputation and activity." Users' eligibility for future airdrops is directly tied to their reputation points and activity levels, such as guaranteed reviews and community contributions. This approach ensures fairness by making it difficult for users to game the system through mere token farming, prioritizing genuinely active and reputable community members. By integrating these factors, Ethos set a new standard for equitable and effective airdrop distribution.

We should call them digital dollars, not stablecoins. “Stablecoin” is a term only crypto insiders use. To everyone else, it’s confusing at best and alarming at worst. But “digital dollars”? That’s intuitive. It captures the essence of what people actually experience - dollars that move faster, settle instantly, and work globally, 24/7. Let’s reframe the conversation. If we want broader adoption and regulatory clarity, language matters. Digital dollars are here. Let’s start calling them what they are. And yes, this logic extends to digital euros, digital pesos, and beyond.

In 2025, crypto derivatives trading—futures, options, and perpetual swaps—has surged, with platforms like Coinbase and Deribit driving growth. Trading volume has soared, and products have grown more sophisticated, aided by AI-driven risk tools. Leverage in derivatives amplifies volatility, as small price shifts spark big gains or losses, often triggering liquidations. Yet, hedging via derivatives can stabilize markets. The 24/7 trading cycle and speculation keep volatility high, but maturing markets and tighter regulations may improve pricing efficiency and temper swings. Overall, derivatives boost liquidity and depth, balancing heightened volatility with emerging stability.
