now Sam and Iqram talk about $jellyjelly re social x crypto: “we came up with it on a call after asking a question of how do we use a memecoin to do what we always wanted to do which is like and tip with money?* in the case of jellyjelly, it feels amazing to get tipped in the app. it feels so much better than a random like, and it’s so much more meaningful. social media, as much as i love it, it’s very alienating to a lot of people. what you see on jellyjelly is a different dimension of feeling connected.” - sam “how do we make crypto mainstream — make it social and make it was engaging.” - iqram “people don’t show up to an app because it makes them feel intellectual. they show up to an app because it makes them feel good.” - sam *should we tell them about @tipn or @noiceapp or tip tuesday? :)

more gems from @toly and @nikitabier “in terms of virality and crypto, i see tokens going viral but not content yet. for viral, 15% of users share content or users share 4 invites. but with believe app, minting the token is like a tweet and that’s driven a viral flywheel for them.” - Nikita “my thoughts on memecoins ie Keynesian beauty contest. you’re trying to bet on what you think will go viral and what everyone else thinks will go viral, but how do you do that when you can launch 50k tokens a day with many of them spam? the content that’s attached to them is much less important than the curation that goes into it. content best suited is probably streaming where there’s a personality people can get behind and build a relationship with; a six second video isn’t going to do that.” - Toly “no one has cracked creator tokens yet. one of my skepticisms is products that try to tokenize every piece of content or token per post. i agree streaming can be a great content experience” - Nikita

now @nikitabier and @toly mostly on the new Solana mobile launch (coming this fall): “one of the biggest challenges in crypto is how do you get them to spend money, and if you have to get them switch to a wallet and do all this other. until the UX is as good as Apple Pay, there’s no way we can get crypto fully adopted.” — Toly “as a mobile dev, your biggest existential risk is the app store. solana mobile is a huge opportunity for that, there’s also way to do passive micro transactions. we all know spam is taking over social right now, and if you can do seamless transactions to stop LLM bots then that’ll be huge*. it’s an experience not even possible on iOS or Android.” - Nikita *idk if i agree with this given what we’ve seen here “i don’t think founders actually think about timing. i wasn’t like this is the right time for the market. i had this drive and fire to create something that i think the world needs, and then it’s up to the gods.” - Toly

one of my only requests to farcaster as more users join and reactive: building from zero on any platform is hard, and can feel extra hard when it seems there's already a strong in-group (as it seems here). if someone (re)joins and says it is hard to grow here or that engagement is tough, i encourage you find truth in it before getting defensive or snarky. the latter isn't going to keep anyone around, but the former might. i would love to see farcaster lean in and embrace new and reactivated users by: 1. replying to new users as much as you expect them to reply to you 2. sharing what's worked for you or others if you see someone share their struggles (and acknowledging it does take time and effort) 3. make someone feel heard, not unwelcome or inadequate if we want farcaster to grow, let’s be the reason someone sticks around and not the reason they leave. shout out to @keccers.eth, @matthewb, @bradq, @afrochicks, @garrett (+ many more!) who are really good at engaging with all users!!
