GM Farcaster ep154 Wednesday September 11, 2024

Get in here folks. Need a merge of the channels for tonight.

PSA: don’t forget about narrow casting if you don’t want to lose all your followers tonight 😜

We made a bingo card for tonight's debate.

I can’t get over how lucky we are. In less than two hours, we get to watch a conversation with the two best people in all of America, the greatest country on earth.

@gabrielayuso.eth and @gt have been cranking out dc improvements on warpcast! the inbox now loads a lot faster on web and mobile, and fetching conversations is significantly faster. the worst case for a load used to be 10s, its now less than 2s. the median time is under half a second.

why @base.base.eth from @barmstrong today

Noticed @tricil.eth already using /on-the-air. If you're an FC broadcaster who wants to use this channel before it's automated reach out and I'll add you to automod.

We’re thrilled to announce that we are now supported on PayPal & Venmo! This new feature brings the power of ENS to millions, making crypto transfers easier and more secure than ever—starting in the USA.🌐 https://blog.ens.domains/post/bringing-crypto-transfers-to-millions-with-paypal-and-venmo

Bullish on narrowcasting Widecasting is like the equivalent of having a loud conversation in a public space for anyone to listen vs. a self-selected group that’s interested in the convo

Announcing the seventeeth wave of 2024 Base Builder Grants: - @kopievskii for Uncuts - @rocketman for VRBS - @basedmc.eth - @rachelw for hosting an accelerator program - @scoge.eth for their onchain and offchain world-building and game platform - @gayatri for enabling builders and creators to get support on Warpcast - @metopia - @pratzyy.eth for Based Games

I think once more non-crypto people realize Farcaster is kinda like Twitter + Reddit with embedded gambling it could really take off.

We've minted a special POAP for authors of bangers on Farcaster and making it to the top 💯 casters a day during week 1 of Warpcast Rewards. If you've received $5 from Warpcast during Sep 1 - 7, Mint your POAP and hold this memory forever: https://collectors.poap.xyz/delivery/warpcast-rewards-week1

Back in my day, rewards were different.

After three incredible months, OᑎᑕᕼᗩIᑎ ᔑᑌᗰᗰEᖇ has come to a close BUT ᔑᑌᗰᗰEᖇ NEVER ENDS 🔆 Here’s a look back at some of the highlights that made it unforgettable this year https://wallet.coinbase.com/nft/mint/eip155:8453:erc721:0xDFf7F56115568bcdd0E1F9DFdb73dD14EC83F6f7

tldr; unlonely is pivoting (but not in the way you're probably thinking of). for a while, unlonely has been trying to do 2 things right: 1. make dope shows / content around tokens 2. make a platform for others to do #1 essentially, is unlonely a platform or a content studio? this was the existential question grace and i were asking ourselves. and for a while we tried doing both.

A couple of thoughts on how to improve boosts. 1/4. Users getting a boost should be warned in advance - otherwise they’re either risking missing out on the benefits of the boost or giving up other activities. In other words, boosts highjack your plans. Mine was dropped on me in the middle of a work day (and week) - the absolute worst timing possible ⬇️
