Founders

Text surveys lie to you.

They show words but not tone, hesitation, or emotion.

You miss the signals that actually explain user behavior.

Building a reputation is creating value for others. 

Being a crypto-native social network, "help others make money" is perhaps the easiest path (see Noice and Degen whales for examples), but it's not everything.

Outside of redistributing money, other ways you might be able to create value:
- building connection and friendship
- provoking someone to think a thought they never would have without you
- creating sardonic joy through clever memes
- network data visualization and meaningful critique
- writing a really thoughtful testimonial or review
- making a mini-app that others find fun
- doing a UX/UI breakdown of a mini-app and sending it to the founders
- etc

At the end of the day you can just do thing.

And if one of your goal is building onchain reputation, it is important that what you're doing is one of the things mentioned on this list

"You win or lose as a team."

In my upcoming pod with @dwr.eth, we dig into why culture isn’t just a vibe—it’s the immune system of an org. It protects you from bad hires, bloat, and burnout.

Culture comes first. Everything else follows.

Stay tuned for the full episode dropping on @pods next week.

In the meantime, it’s a great day to be coachable 👏🏻👏🏻

Am trying out @thatweb3guy ‘s new platform, @audioform - to collect voice-based user feedback on a side project I’ve been hacking on - www.cardr.xyz 

"Cardr Early/WIP/v0.01 Survey" by @audioform - 

voxera.vercel.app/respond/c5975e2f-907c-4638-a3cf-f516507b2c66

(Reply in voice ☝️)

Note that this is at its *earliest possible stages*, I’m still getting minting working properly, as well as ENS/basename resolution, better template themes, smoother data capture, etc.. - 

This initial survey via Audioform is mostly to gauge how chainizens like you feel about the concept :> - and you can submit your answers purely with voice!

Hello Farcaster,

Let's give @greyseymour voice feedback on his side project www.cardr.xyz

The Unwritten Rules of Farcaster: You’ve Got to Contribute 

Farcaster is in a constant state of flux. The team is always experimenting, and the meta is always changing. This makes it hard for new folks to find their place. The Leaderboard is not helping. 

Many casters are using it as their metric for success here, and it’s measuring the wrong things. Turn off notifications for it and do not let it dictate your worth or how well you are doing. 

If you want to do well, you have to do one thing: contribute. 

Content is not the only way to contribute, but it’s going to be the most noticeable this summer. When I joined Farcaster, it was drilled into my head that it was a text-based social network, and I fought that for a long time as an artist…but things are about to change. 

With the upcoming push for video, Farcaster may be graduating from cozy corners to look a lot more like traditional social media but with a Web3 backbone. Don’t believe me? Look at the leaderboard and see what’s cashing in. 

In this new era, content may be king. Find your niche, show off your whole authentic self, and you may be able to rise above the noise. But if your strength isn’t in creating, you still need to find a way to stand out. 


✎﹏Become a Collector and Curator

If you can’t create your own content, cheerlead those who do. Highlight underrated creators. Look for hidden gems on the network. Find artists, writers, photographers who need a boost. Buy their work. Show off your awesome collection. Tell people why you bought it and support it. Why is an article worth reading? What speaks to you about a piece? Help curate the content you want to see more of and things that inspire you. 

✎﹏Build Cool Shit 

Dust off your coding skills and build some mini apps. Find a v1 frame that was awesome and recreate it as a mini app, especially if the original developer has moved on. Vibe code away and build something. Mini Apps get noticed and highlighted by the team and other developers. 

✎﹏﹏Build Community

If you can’t find a tribe here, build your own. Start your own channel. Start your own group chat. Make your own cabal.  Bring your friends from other platforms and give them a place to land. Communities and friendships are the backbone of what makes Farcaster special. Most of us want to see them thrive and evolve. If you can’t find a cozy corner, make one. 


✎﹏﹏Become an Enthusiast Participant 

Maybe none of the above is for you, and that’s okay! Reply. Guys do really well on Farcaster. There is value in making connections and friendships by talking to people authentically. Join audio spaces. Go to IRL events. Host spaces and IRL events if none are nearby.  Give developers great feedback about their products. Compliment art and photos you like. Ask thoughtful questions. Seek out people looking for feedback (but avoid engagement bait!) and jump into conversations by putting your best foot forward. 

No matter how you choose to contribute, it’s going to take work, time, and effort. It won’t happen overnight, but you will find your place if you put in the energy.

Permissionless contribution.

If you're ever of the opinion that you can just build the things you want to see in the world, farcaster is the playground for experimentation

most of the builders (99%) here should quit their current project and launch a new one in 2 weeks, then quit that one if it doesn't work, then launch a new one in 2 more weeks

ad infinitum until they hot gold

if you think you, reading this, are among the 1%, you're delusional

quit, build, repeat
