Ok hear me out: Do this, except use @farcastlexyz so that users can actually have protections and customizable terms using known trusted contracts. I actually think a pre-clanker is a fantastic signaling mechanism for a community to indicate to a builder that it is time to launch. If your community doesn't fund a pre-clanker then you probably should just focus on building.

Helping builders get direct user feedback on needs and desires is a superpower in this ecosystem. The wrong incentives drive the wrong results!

Happy Pizza Day, Farfam! Excited to share that there's a new builder funding protocol on the blockchain! Great timing to launch their Community Slices campaign on Pizza Day! I'll share more of my thoughts on how @letsdivvi is positioned to help get builders funded for onboarding users, but for now I'll leave it at this: Funding onchain growth permissionlessly.

Asking the real questions up in here. @stellaachenbach we need to accelerate the 'protocol vs platform' educational resources, I think!!

Don't miss this week's DAO call! https://x.com/i/spaces/1OyKALrOyQMxb One topic I'd love to add is this incredible post on ENS forums about the grant program and problems they've encountered in funding growth. https://discuss.ens.domains/t/toward-accountable-and-strategic-funding-in-ens/20732/3 Lots to unpack in here, so bring your thinking hats, folks!

This is exactly why I'm so bullish on open protocols collaborating to win. Monolithic software that absorbs other features always leads to a bloated, unusable product. Open protocols simply result in disconnected, unusable products 🤣 BUT if we can get open protocols to collaborate we can create a feature rich UX that doesn't box people into a moat that does nothing but force them to eat inflating user costs and degrading consumer experience. By collaborating instead of consolidating, we actually create more opportunities for healthy competition in the end.

Couldn't agree more! If we only build little dopamine wheels, all we'll ever get are bored ppl looking for dopamine. You want regular, consistent activity with far less churn? Well, then you gotta build stuff ppl can't live without! I guarantee you ppl can live without onchain games or gambling or sports. They get their fill of that on centralized platforms! And they only want it when they're bored. Ideally, nobody should ever be bored if we're building things they actually need in their lives! https://warpcast.com/garrett/0xc5a0a37b

This conversation took a really really long time to get to the point: Sufficient is subjective. These tradeoffs on "edge cases" is what defines a protocol, however. I'm actually fine with accepting that Farcaster is somewhat centralized for now, with the knowledge that it has to further decentralize later and there needs to be at least a vague plan, if not an iron clad one. But what always puts my hackles up is each time this discussion pops up about the points of centralization it becomes this really sensitive subject with lots of defensive misdirection about practically. Why not just boldly embrace the centralization tradeoffs and trust that if the reasoning is good enough for the team, why wouldn't it be for the community? That kind of transparency goes a long way towards bridging the gap between "sufficient" and "trustless". https://warpcast.com/dwr.eth/0x359c8c23

Wholesome maxxing is the kind of cultural movement I can really get behind.

This is a great use case of the sovereignty economy, where self sovereign identities and onchain data can create new marketplaces. Having privacy-preserving immutable evidence that you were part of the OG's who onboarded the first big mainstream wave of normies to crypto while simultaneously funding the cleanup of every city on the planet seems like an investment worth making. What do you think, @kenny ? Is this an interesting direction for /poidh ? https://paragraph.com/@trigs/the-attention-economy

Check out Pattern 15: Neighborhood Boundary from A Pattern Language This one seems a bit strong on the implementation. I can get on board with the boundary conception tho. It does reflect a seemingly innate human proclivity: Tribalism Activating this on a neighborhood level has precedent. Famous ones like Harlem or Compton come to mind. In smaller cities it often was as simple as the colloquialism "the other side (of the tracks, river, some physical boundary)". But what I don't see are examples of this kind of cultural structure encouraging positive sum collaborative engagement. It's usually polarizing and reinforcing division and competition. So to me, the challenge boils down to the same issues we're facing with web3: Enabling positive sum human collaboration. We don't have to throw tribalism out with the PvP bathwater. We just need to provide the tools and systems necessary to enable an alternative. But what we can't do is just throw walls up around our communities and expect it to work.

It's like nobody in this thread has heard of the massive public goods ecosystem and all the experimentation going on around this idea of "voluntary taxes". But yes, very promising hypothesis that if we align incentives with transparent systems we can actually create an environment where people enjoy funding things for improving their existence without monetary rewards for doing so.
