yoooo i actually personally do NOT want people knowing what i buy

let me choose to make this private or public like venmo come on

otherwise doing my large volume trades in other wallets

lmfao you sound like one of us now; welcome

why would you notify the entire platform about my trades but not show my casts to all of my followers

big release! we now have a webhook that triggers when farcaster users complete trades.

you can filter by FIDs, neynar score, or minimum USD amount. great for setting up alerts, custom products around social trading, and more. 

(just on Base to start)

i think this ship has sailed: https://farcaster.xyz/neynar/0x403a7bea

the data is available and @neynar  just made it trivially easy for people to access these insights without indexing the data. https://farcaster.xyz/neynar/0x403a7bea

so even if the main client doesn't surface bots/other apps will

i would move your trading to railgun (https://www.railgun.org/) or @fluidkey if you don't want them to become a subject of conversation

i think it’s diff between it being possible and accessible on demand vs being exposed to every user on the app + showing a red dot saying tap here — one to me is explicit promotion one is public data

"all trades onchain are public by default" no shit sherlock it was a non-technical reference point

there's a difference between having my trades exposed to the entire platform at an app notification level vs. being able to trade without scrutiny / attention

yeah opt-out would be nice

trades as content is the meta (interface, Robinhood, TBA, clicker). not surprised they are leaning into it

1. people can change their mind about things

2. was surprised by the feature; you can watch my public onchain trades if you want (won't make you $$) but didn't love the app exposing it to everyone who clicks the search button

farcaster -- they surface any buys over $1k in the search / explore tab. i didn't realize they pushed this otherwise i wouldn't have bought there.

i know all txns are onchain but there's a difference between it being explicitly surfaced vs. available if someone wants to dig deep into it.

Didn't know that... that's obnoxious and completely agree it should be an opt in from the wallet.

because the trade was > 1k it got surfaced to anyone who opened the search screen

Don't people need to elect to follow your trades? 

But also yeah totally get your point. Also imo there's a general etiquette that needs to be developed. I personally wouldn't call anyone out for something larger than a 3-figure number unless it seems sus.

ted we don’t actually make the real trades on farcaster connected wallets this is day 1 stuff

Go get them ted, privacy is a human right

I like this feature actually. I bought some $ETH, others saw it, took pity, and sent me theirs

Ted innocently using a doxxed wallet is so pure. Never change

This is the next technical and UX challenge.

Keeping transactions private on a public Blockchain. 

Many zk based startups are working on it, but it's 1-2 years away in terms of adoption.

ENS is also really fucked for this 

Private is better

It’s also pretty cringe when I get alerts from people I follow that they’re back in Los Angeles. This feature is just weird.

Zcash is public or private which is p cool

lolsorry

That’s less the point than potentially triggering vitality with trade antics

lol yeah 
i do like 1% of trading out of doxxed wallets

Damn was already uncomfortably surveilled (for my taste) connecting your profile to token holdings when people clicked on the ticker, this is wild

Absolutely agree with you. Also make sure the wallet for your large trade ils is not connected to your ENS or any (even remotely) identifiers (POAP…)
