Paragraph

The entire Paragraph team is heading to Charleston, SC today for our second team offsite.

We've been a 100% remote team from the start, but the facetime we get from in-person offsites has been extremely valuable.

Awesome time in South Carolina with the Paragraph team over the past week.

Beautiful place, great food, stellar weather, and exciting planning w/ the team on what's to come. Came away energized & excited.

Food

Dinner last night: Gochujang chicken, stir fry and jasmine rice 

9/10 taste and pretty easy to throw together.

Pan fried on a cast iron for better char. Definitely adding this to the dinner rotation

🔙 New Mini App API for Back Navigation

- 1-line integration for standard web apps
- custom integration available for advanced use cases
- back control will vary depending on platform; web is button, iOS is a swipe left, Android is native back control (swipe and/or hardware / virtual button)

simple yet powerful

New in the Paragraph miniapp: a back button!

Notion AI meeting notes is the first AI feature embedded into an existing product workflow of mine that is actually a significant value add

I already create new Notion pages for every meeting, and always religiously take notes. Now, I can rely less on diligent note taking if I know the entire transcription + summary + action items are captured

hey @colin will paragraph show long casts (10k chars) as articles?

Interesting idea: surface long casts directly on Paragraph 

Native client for long form writing

Disconnected & spent the weekend at a cottage in Northern Ontario. 

Sharing a few pics I took. Wildlife was everywhere!

First time I've ever seen a beaver up close.

Launched as Farcaster, renamed to Warpcast, soon back to Farcaster. Launched channels, speculation they might be doing away with them in the near future. Rumors of charging for "Pro" features. Y'all OK over there?

Any company pre-product-market-fit needs to navigate the idea maze or they will die

More shots on goal = higher probability of getting to pmf = not dying

Life pro tip - print a menu when you have guests over for dinner. Takes 5 mins and makes it way more fun! Also helpful to tape up in the kitchen during prep to get organized.

Bonus points: buy yourself some card stock and a corner cutter to make it feel super nice

Can confirm - printing out a menu is one of my favourite things to do when hosting dinners

Excited to announce an airdrop of Monad testnet tokens!

- 77K Farcaster accounts received an airdrop based on criteria like the number of verifications, casting and engagement

- Monad testnet tokens will allow you to use mini apps on Monad 

- You can also send it to people on Farcaster, but you might want to keep some for some of the mini apps coming soon!

What are the best Monad miniapps I can test?

Today's at @paradigm 's office, we (@socialgraphvc) touched on one of the largest problems web3 social has

ADCOINS

Web3 social is missing its biggest revenue engine: ads.

What if ad revenue was shared with those who bet early on viral content?

Adcoins flip the model—letting users, creators & brands all own a piece of attention.

Full piece linked below, and thanks to our cohosts @mbd 
 (@yassinelanda.eth , @albiverse ), @privy (@segall), and 
@builders-garden (@limone.eth)

btw, one collector will win a raffle with my fav memecoins

Cool exploration on how to tie together traditional revenue streams with crypto (ads & coins)

come to Farcon in next 20 mins if u want an ass kicking

These @bertwurst.eth stickers were worth it for the ass kicking

Amazing event with @amelie /alexandria The Forever Library

Really enjoyed the forever library event! 

Awesome to give away real life collectibles of some of the great writing on Paragraph.

Settled back home in sunny Florida 

Starting to refine and finish my /firstdraft for this week that’s due out tomorrow 

Have even more appreciation for @paragraph after connecting with @reidtandy and @colin at the Base Golden Hour event 

Curious what @bradq is cooking up for his first draft this week

Always really enjoy meeting Paragraph writers IRL 🤝
