If someone's first crypto wallet is Farcaster, they might not realize how complex, time-consuming, and expensive bridging usually is.

just one small example of how easy Farcaster wallet is to use.

hot take but i think someone would be like why do i have to pay anything to swap USDC into USDC at all

Yeah, my example might not be the best one, but the comparison still holds if you use a regular bridge instead of Circle’s.

It might be unfair to focus on the example in your cast but circle's CCTP bridge is zero cost and has fast mode with single-digit cent fees. I'd only want to pay a fee on this if the wallet abstracts away a swap on the other chain, but I bet we're not far from doing this

unfortunately, many bridges charge fees, to cover cross-chain security and liquidity costs.

yah even a ! someone could tap explaining the fee simply would go a long way

If you only have USDC on eth and need USDC on solana

why does my visa have a different network in Chicago than it does in LA and I have to send my money manually between them with a fee?

Thought I was the only one thinking this.
