Creators earned $23,000 from collectibles in the first week! 

We knew historically significant casts would be popular, but its also been really cool to see how people have sold candles, prints or even rented out their time to others via collectibles. 

Our next priority for collectibles is getting them to work on web, which we hope to ship this week. If you have any annoying bugs or feature requests, please share them in the thread below.

After spending a week bidding on (and failing mostly) and collecting casts from my favourites here, I have a few suggestions (more like polite requests) for the team. 

1. Once I’ve collected a cast, it need not show up in ‘My Bids’. I can always check my Collections tab to see the ones I’ve collected. 

2. Auctions that have ended where I was outbid don’t serve much purpose (other than making me feel sad). Maybe hide them by default and give us a button to toggle on and off?

3. Not all casts I’ve bid on show up in ‘My Bids’ tab even though I can see my bid when I open the cast directly. 

4. Please make the collectibles shareable. We want to show off ongoing auctions and what we’ve collected. Right now we’re resorting to screenshots. 

5. Let us rearrange the collectibles in the collections section or group them into categories. As collectibles grow, it’s going to be an endless scroll otherwise. A search bar within collections could also work.

Love collectibles! Didn’t realise you had a cast for feature requests. Put together something here.

Collectibles hot take: Do we want a resale market? If so, should be able to keep bidding even after the initial auction is done, except the bids become offers to sell.

Original caster should get royalties of course

🔥🔥🔥

what if we fully mlm it and give collector royalties to the original collector and then smaller to the next one and so on 🤣

being able to keep bidding on casts once they are sold (secondary market bids basically) h/t @shazow.eth

Tell me how I can sell more candles with collectibles! 🤣

Real use cases > hype. From memes to mentorship, collectibles are unlocking it all.

feature ideas/request:

- notify both bidder and caster 1h before an auction settles

- a tab or button on users profile indicating current auctions

- remove self bids from trending (maybe thats already the case idk)

This is a lot of money for 37 people to share!

so farcaster made roughly $2500 from that correct? 

is that money being put to rewards / developer rewards? or?

Since it’s technically possible to own a collectible for a cast that was deleted or expired after bidding, Is it also possible to bid on a deleted or expired cast smh?

This favours only the OGs, and make new creators invisible
