We believe that these changes in aggregate will lead to a more fair system and more people will be "above the fold" when viewing replies on Farcaster. However, there may be some growing pains along the way as we roll out changes, and we appreciate your patience and feedback.

In addition to a verification, a spam label can also affect your visibility. Our spam labels are moving to a single label (yes/no) instead of a three point system. A lot fewer people will receive spam labels as a result of this, and it will be focussed on accounts that are malicious or exploiting the system. However, if you get a spam label you may not show up in replies even if you have a verification. Only people who follow you will see your replies.

The way visibility on Farcaster will work is a combination of these labels. To show up in replies, you will need a verification label. You can get this by connecting social accounts and holding a balance of $25. We will also add a system where users who have been active on the network for a while and have built large followings can get a verification without connecting socials (exact system tbd) Verifications will not affect your ability to earn rewards or airdrops for now. We are going to test out the proposal as it stands, and we may make some changes to the criteria depending on how easy or difficult it is for people to achieve. Your feedback as we roll this system out is always appreciated, and we'll make changes based on it.

We're updating our labelling system to have two labels: 1. Account Verifications - a measure of how much work the user has done that is hard to fake (e.g. winning rewards, adding socials) 2. Account Spamminess - a measure of how spammy a user's account is when interacting with others.

This morning, I made my debut in Fortune magazine. The story examines at how GE Vernova went from General Electric's "fossil fuel disaster" just a few years ago to a skyrocketing stock powering the data center gas boom, and how the company's wind division's fortunes flipped. https://fortune.com/article/ge-vernova-stock-surging/

when you start a new company, the cost of shipping a bug is near zero and the cost of not shipping the right feature is a few billion dollars.
