An earnest steelman question, to those who interpreted that 10k Pro subscriptions sold out entirely due to NFT-related speculation-- How to explain 12K now (20% more)? Some are mistakes, sure, but what percentage in crypto gets completely mistaken? Like, buy a right to an NFT but the team has said clearly upfront there's only going to be 10K NFTs. Personally, I think it's mostly the promise of airdrops (based on return of CT influenzas and my number of new follows). Combined with some europooor true believers who also like to sleep. Plus the general opportunists who see a rich crowd with willing and loose wallets. If the first 10K had 20-50% hopeful extractooors, I feel the next 2K is probably in the same ballpark. It's also a net good that Farcaster has 12K+ subscribers, all of whom come up for renewal in a year (not in one month!). It's on the team to deliver value to be able to continue the game.

I had a similar thought initially that majority of the people subscribed due to NFT, but soon realised maybe ~10k is the Farcaster limit of how many would subscribe regardless, that's why we don't see more subscriptions too. So it's likely both reasons.
