New: Lightning fast swaps We made our swaps a lot faster. They now take 2-3s on average. This one took barely a second. Another small step towards making this the best wallet to trade with.

Coinbase Wallet / TBA no longer works as an alternate wallet on mobile. Until recently, you could use Coinbase Wallet or Rainbow to transact on Farcaster using Mobile Wallet Protocol. The latest version of Coinbase Wallet (TBA) does not support this protocol. We're disabling Coinbase Wallet / TBA as an option for now after discussing with the Base team. They might add support for this in the future, and we'll revisit enabling it. Fortunately, this wasn't very widely used and only affects < 2% of transacting users.

New: Pro Trading Farcaster Pro gives you the best prices on every trade. No hidden fees or gimmicks. Popular wallets charge you 1% or more on trades. What's worse, fees are hidden, so you don't realize how much you're losing on every trade. Our new trading experience promises that we will: 1. Find the best place to execute your trade. 2. Tell you what we're charging you. 3. Charge the lowest fees of any wallet (if you have Farcaster Pro). If you trade onchain, you'll earn more with Farcaster Pro.

New: Collectibles! Support your favorite creators by collecting their casts onchain. Each cast can be turned into a unique, 1-of-1 collectible. Just tap the new "collect" icon on a cast to get started. Casts can be collected starting at $1. If there are multiple collectors, it goes to the highest bidder. Creators get 90% collectible earnings, and the remaining 10% goes to the protocol rewards. We’re excited about collectibles for a few reasons: 1. Creators earn directly from their audience 2. New creators can earn on their first day 3. Users get to collect a unique piece of Farcaster history Collectibles will go live tomorrow morning around 9am PT. We're announcing this early so people can be ready to collect their favorite casts when the feature is live!
