Farcaster

my friend is demoralized from farcaster pro because he narrowly missed the "first 10k get an nft drop" window

idea: every time another 10k sells, the last 10k should get a custom NFT for that cohort.

naw. (evidenced by my response time here)

If it becomes an ongoing thing, then it might. But I'm a lot more invested here than the marginal active user, so it likely affects their calculus a bit more.

any consequences to your farcaster usage?

yeah, I do feel this.
I was a few seconds late, and largely due to poor wallet UX IMO.

@farcaster dev / dad / books, cooks, ski, code ~ there are many things of which a wise man might wish to be ignorant

I see the point but vast majority of people don't really care or find it fun

for instance we already did a Farcaster OG NFT drop for active users when we migrated FIDs onchain

it was fun and some people complained but it never turned into a have or have nots situation

also he has a strong argument that creating separate class citizens that no one can join into (OG NFT holders vs non-OG NFT holders) is long-term toxic to growth, and has some personal experiences supporting this thesis... trying to get him to post more details here but he's too disillusioned at the moment 🙃

The NFT isn’t the point though. It’s like being disillusioned you missed the T shirt cannon at a concert. You still got to see the concert. Still got some $procoin right?

What're you driving at, every pro users should get an NFT or what? 🤔
