Respectfully disagree - I think you should ship with at least one actual benefit or change the optics. Shipping ASAP is important but the goal is to learn. I feel like all you're learning is how many people are 1) fans of Farcaster 2) want to speculate on the value of a future NFT for airdrops. Because of #2, it doesn't even forecast demand. Instead, I think you should either: 1. Ship with any one feature (eg. 10k characters in a post) and no NFT. At least you learn about how people react to that feature and use it. 2. Rebrand this as a preorder with no max limit that doesn't charge you until functionality is built. Currently, it's a "10k NFT collection" that will mint out due to farmers. IMO the Warpcast wallet funding badge coincided with a new feature - wallet support - and the purple ring signaled to others to add it too. Separately, minting out patron NFTs are useful for early stage startups with no funding. I'll still sign up for Pro since I'm a fan even if I think it's bad optics though

Yeah but tbh is seems obvious that projects will airdrop tokens to pro users, no?

yeah, that's why i said don't put a 10k cap on it. at this point, you're selling fomo now rather than a real product. (i feel like i'm qualified to say this since i worked on nft products for 2 years)

Agree, but I’m ok with that, fomo is part of the game with crypto projects 😆 and it will be used mostly for dev rewards and grow the ecosystem.
