29 Seconds of Farcaster ... What did you miss this weekend? * A big drop in $CLANKER price this weekend--some saying the FC acquisition hype dropped off, some concerned about clanker nurturing the whole clanker eco, and others saying nothing has changed and it's an opportunity to get in at ~ $80 and be part of the journey * Nice to see @acidtest podcast back from @chaim.eth with guest @sayangel & even cooler to hear the lore from @patriciaxlee.eth about the struggle for acidtest to make enough money to pay for the production and this one episode brought in $4K+ * Also on the token front, a fair bit of talk about app coins vs meme coins and whether we should favor one or the other of if there is a place for both in the eco; Also there was an issue with buying $FEY in the warplet that caused some serious money loss, been resolved, and you can chase down the reasons, but seems like something we all should be a aware--we are still in the wild, wild west, so don't get comfortable * @zeni.eth built a fun Warplet Space spinoff that gives you your 8 friends as warplets that people seemed to enjoy this weekend * Halloween fun on the timeline, including @bertwurst.eth dressing up as his pfp, not to mention @debbie as Mario, @m00npapi.eth as Scooby Doo, and @erica as the devil were all 🔥 🔥 🔥 * /gmfarcaster is back at 11:30 AM EST for a full catch up with @adrienne & @nounishprof PLUS it's /castout day with the start of the game & there is a $BRACKY market for it

Exploit at DeFi Protocol Balancer: Over $100 Million Stolen The Ethereum-based decentralized trading platform Balancer has fallen victim to a major cyberattack, resulting in the theft of over $100 million in crypto assets. Blockchain analytics firms such as Nansen identified suspicious transfers to a newly created wallet. Balancer confirmed awareness of a potential vulnerability affecting its v2 pools and stated that technical teams are investigating. In response, the Berachain Foundation temporarily halted its network to conduct an emergency hard fork. This incident follows earlier exploits and vulnerabilities, marking another blow to DeFi security and investor confidence.

A reminder If you’re launching a mini app + Clanker, please reach out to me ahead of time! I’d like to help your launch be as successful as possible. When you DM me, please be clear: 1. One sentence pitch on what you’re building 2. The date you plan to launch 3. Extra points if you send a <60 second Loom demo of your product.
Two things I hate while creating miniapps: 1. Generating 20 images with different aspect ratios 2. Validating manifests So I built a tool that does both, free to use. Obvs a web first tool, but had to include miniapp functionality ofc. Let me know if you find it useful or if I should add features! https://miniapptoolkit.com
SLIPPAGE VS PRICE IMPACT "I set 3% slippage and still got rekt on a swap. What happened?" Price impact, slippage, and liquidity are three distinct concepts that are related and sometimes conflated. Here is a short explanation of each. PRICE IMPACT Price impact is how much your trade moves the market price. In an onchain exchange like Uniswap prices follow an algorithmic curve. Buying moves the price up this curve and selling moves it down. How far any one trade moves the price depends on the total liquidity in the pool. If you buy or sell into an illiquid pool even a small swap can move the price a lot. And if the size of your trade is more than the available liquidity in the pool, you will get rekt. Price impact is not unique to AMMs. The same thing happens if you buy or sell into a thin order book on an offchain exchange. If your trade chews through the order book you will move the mid-market price. How far the price moves depends on how deep the order book liquidity is. SLIPPAGE Slippage is the difference between what you expect to receive from a trade and what you actually receive when it executes onchain. Setting "max slippage" protects you if the price moves between time of quote and time of execution. How can this happen? In the few seconds between when you see a swap quote and push the button to execute it, other trades may land onchain and move the market price. Again, if there is low liquidity, a few trades landing before yours can move the price a lot. Setting 3% max slippage means "cancel the trade if I lose more than 3% on what you quoted." But it doesn't protect against the price impact of your own trade. LIQUIDITY Note that both of these concepts are related to liquidity. Liquidity is how much you can trade without moving the price. In an AMM more tokens in the pool means more liquidity. In an offchain exchange more orders in the book means more liquidity. TO SUMMARIZE: Price impact is about how much you move the price with your trade. Slippage is about how much other people move the price before your trade. Both are related to liquidity: less liquidity means small swaps move the price more. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR MY BAGS? 1. If you are swapping, always look at the quoted amount you receive before you swap. This is the most important number on the screen and is where you will see any potential price impact. If the amount you get back is much lower than the amount you are swapping, your trade has high price impact and you probably should not proceed. 2. If you are trying to buy or sell a token with a fast moving price or on an L1 with slow blocks, you may need to adjust slippage. 3. Always pay attention to available liquidity as it impacts 1 and 2. Brand new and obscure tokens are much more likely to have low liquidity. This is also why their prices are often more volatile. You can see liquidity under "Stats" on the token screen.
Five days ago, I asked @chaim.eth if there was anything we fans could do to convince him to bring Acid Test back. His answer was, “May bring it back eventually” and explained that the revenue from the episodes was not enough to produce the show. Two days ago, he cast, “Hey who’s up and wants to listen to something weird?” Then yesterday, he posted the first Acid Test episode after a four-month hiatus. In 24 hours, it earned the equivalent of seven straight weeks on the leaderboard. It is the highest earning episode yet. I am pointing this number out because I have cast about the leaderboard several times before, encouraging people to think outside of its zero-sum box. But I’m not sure if the message has fully landed because I still get asked for advice on how to climb the leaderboard. So here’s my advice, again: - ignore the leaderboard presented to you and create your own where the rewards are intrinsic and infinite - connect with people who genuinely interest you, not targeting individuals to boost your engagement - follow the call of your weirdness even when you don’t know who or what you’ll find when you get there - limit the time between your idea and your experiment so you don’t overthink your way into not creating - have fun (what @sayangel has been saying all along)! Money is an expression of energy. When do you feel most high energy? When you’re having fun. Start there and see what happens.
$CLANKER coming off post acquisition hype. If clanker is going to win it needs to bolster it's ecosystem. Look at virtuals — its the ecosystem that makes it what it is. If clanker just becomes the farcaster token launcher without nourishing the rest of the eco its game over.

PSA: Because this token launched with a custom hook, aggregators are routing most swaps through an illiquid pool. We disabled buy side quotes for this token in Farcaster wallet for now. Please be careful in other wallets with built in swaps: I saw reports of the same issue in Rainbow and Base.

🔔 ding ding ding!! We've been cooking Notifications Analytics is live. Now you can track subscribers, measure CTR, and test different notification strategies to see what actually works.
Some graphs from the Zora live stream, tl;dr: 1. It pays to be a builder (esp if you're an established one) 2. Creatives are most likely to break away from mold and make more 3. You CAN make money without being super popular (on FC at least, idk about their IG followers)
