after more testing and bugfixing (pls update to the latest version!), we've opened up invite codes again 🎉🎉 to make it fair for people who couldn't get in and ensure the game starts smoothly, we're pushing back game start one more week (to Wed the 26th). we're excited for everyone to see what we've cooked for phase 1 🔜🔜 p.s this is a boosted cast, so +250 points is up for grabs if you like and recast 🫡

Re: accessibility, we've focused on more playful use cases of signatures and advanced cryptography, in contrast to the more stressful onboarding of financial cryptography like blockchains: cursive.team/zustamps

Re: tangibility, we've worked with NFC cards that give out private signed data from a tap. It's a joyful UX, and one that differentiates the interaction from standard web2 flows that take all of your data: jubmoji.quest/about

Our focus is on tangible, accessible, and beautifully designed apps. We believe everyone could benefit from the ownership and authenticity provided by signatures, but we have a lot of education and UX work to do first.

A cryptographic "discipline" ladder. We drew this after losing two pilot partners by being overzealous researchers. (1 / N)

Isn’t the more accurate framing that if you’re willing to wait for the computer to take a while, it must be a high quality interaction? For example, slow websites are just a pain, there’s nothing golden there

Super interesting! Has Farcaster considered using baby jubjub EdDSA as in https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-2494 ? Can cheaply wrap signature verification in a ZKP which is then very cheap to verify on chain!

How does this compare to other GPT-3 add-ons? Is the UX better? Are the outputs better? Is it faster?
