that's probably why it feels like it's been forever

so before we jump into some farcaster news and crypto news and get your get your takes on that tell us about your first week and like what you guys are focusing on and what it's been like oh wait a minute before we get to that woj your first your first what was it airhorn whatever airhorn airhorn experience how was that

they were asking it to be real expensive the really important stuff yeah gotcha you know but can you talk a little bit about like what have you been focusing on like what's your priority is gonna be for the next couple months give us any insights into what's happening

stuff that

and what you what are you doing back there sir what's your number one priority right now

so oh cool alright i love that

nice and then are you both gonna be at east denver or no no i'll i'm going to east denver

for one day is he speaking no i don't think he answered okay i wasn't sure i was like one day does that mean you're speaking or something like because that's kinda what it sounded like to me and i was like that's odd but cool i was hoping i was kinda hoping like i could catch him on a stage or something get some get some no

we did just secure our podcast spot at noon noon on thursday and we're gonna be building in ten minute segments so if and this is for anybody who's listening if you're gonna be at eatdenver you're building something on farcaster you've got a booth or you're speaking or whatever and you're gonna be there make sure you swing by we'll slide you in and i'll reach out to you ted with more info because we'll be right on the main floor yeah in the podcast space so for about an hour yay but it's gonna be amazing

amazing alright

got we got a lot of highs coming in for you all i love this yes yes

you can't disclose no no disclosure no disclosure i you know when we asked dan the same question about the intern he was a little cagey so we made our assumptions about who that intern is meaning him but you know we could be wrong we're right i'm pretty sure we're right it might be a shared account is my guess though as well i wanna dive into the news i have to have to start here like this is not farcaster news but this is crypto news that is going to encapsulate everybody but also kyle this is hilarious kyle's take on the libra news this is hayden not adam's david

and then this is another meme from that i saw on farcaster bro i have a business idea yeah don't get one no no no and then this i prefer politicians that don't default to the kubrick stare for the portraits like kenny

yeah so funny so so funny so overall here's what happened in case you missed it the president of argentina tweeted out this meme coin with this whole plan that it was gonna support small business in argentina and this whole thing it quickly went bad

yeah very very very very bad rick's bounty for if you were on warpedcast and you haven't been on crypto twitter and you don't you haven't been following it rick's bounty kinda was really capturing what was going on so go take a look at his account and you can get caught up but also here's the bottom line if you really want the whole story and like the insanity of this coffeezilla dropped an interview with hayden davis i believe is his last name from the crew who launched this coin and it is mind blowing and it's gonna be the thing everyone's talking about today in the next couple days

already watched it it was out at around 1am my time and i was watching it because i was like this is insane insane so go give it a watch who do

definitely the devs like no

the name hayden and his crew like yeah like that crew

there's some devs in the background he is not and he says so in this but like their whole marketing plan all everything they were doing with influencers there's a lot of not great stuff happening but the thing about this interview that is mind blowing to me as an attorney is that he did this interview yes at all

yes and then he was just on and i haven't watched it because i missed it i caught the very end he was just on with dave portnoy also just now dude like right before

clearly not like please stop talking you do have the right to remain silent and please get an attorney i'm begging you i'm begging you sir so bad

a really bad idea so anyway so that's what's been happening in the world of crypto over the past couple of days and it has been mind blowing but by the way i loved when you casted this because nfa she was not endorsing this coin but it was a great way to see the new token page is fantastic but also what i love about this is that you can see the comments that are mentioning it below that so that because that really brings the social aspect into it so if you are trying to catch up on the conversation around libra and i i forgot to tag mine with libra you'll see so much right here so you can do it that way and i'd highly recommend that really gives you a good picture of what's been happening so go check that out

and i

well and that's why dan keeps saying what's the ticker it's not because he's not because he's looking for like his next investment people he's testing things so but that was really i love the token pages they are very cool and it's a great way to get info so great great great

always

oh oh she's checking to see if she can tell us

we're getting like live discussion with elsa

that was pretty good nice nice oh so that's that's

good timing that's my next thing that we didn't get to shout out last week because it was after our show i'm joining merkel this is from sloke after building around farcaster for one point five years i'm more bullish than ever on the team protocol and product the last time i felt this way about something was when i joined opensea almost four years ago 2025 will be big for crypto and farcaster will be at the center of it shoo choo which i totally was so excited to see this hire as well amazing addition and there was a lot of discussion when so when woje was teasing the second hire and dan was teasing the second hire we obviously were saying you but the other name i kept hearing a lot was sloke so that was yeah right on time yeah right on time very exciting like

you can feel the energy right now yeah you know how you know how like you could feel it like when frames dropped there was frames friday and there was that energy of like for that whole weekend where you did not want to put your phone down you didn't want to like look away from farcaster because there was so much going on and you knew you'd miss something it's like that again and in such the best way i love it yeah like it feels so good and dan did a great job kind of summing up last week three new people joining woah ted and sloke base announcing upcoming farcaster support farcon twenty twenty five in new york in may reminder last week to get your application in is friday's last day don't forget increased size of warpedcast rewards token links and pages warpedcast wallet snapchain testnet 90,000 free invites public spam labels q four retroactive grants following feed option highlighted notifications first cast in a while notifications love that by the way muted channels bug and performance improvements to dcs more to come choo choo that was a lot

it's a lot it's a lot what are you most excited about when you look at this list like what do you feel like is driving like excitement at the moment or what do you what are you excited about personally

i i really thought you were gonna say parkhan new york but okay

it's like the the the speed

i love it i love it say i like i i'm excited about everything but i'm really excited about farcon i'm just gonna say it really really excited about that so but so many so many things happening this was from dan as well looking for more examples of crypto apps using farcaster data permissionlessly or with sign in with farcaster rainbow trending tokens and rodeo profile integration please reply with a screenshot link to the app trying to compile all of them in one spot so if you want us to highlight your app now is your chance so that is something too if you are a dev building something make sure you check this out also we forgot to mention the collectibles were added i don't think we mentioned this last week collectibles were added to the war cast wallet so you can see your nfts in there now which is very cool

yeah i think that was for i think it was after yeah it was after the show and this from rune this was really fun

so fun it was v day oh it won't let me show it because i already took it but this was really fun and it was you had to guess if it was v as in varun or v as in vitalik and who said what in a cast and i loved this i loved this was this v's idea

the funny

i thought he created it oh that's funny okay so it was somebody completely different oh wow that's fun there's a lot

this one was really fun i didn't do great but it was really fun i had a 50% fifty % on there that just means v sounds like vatalic more than he realizes this from linda i have to shout out happy valentine's day w warren it's been a wonderful thirteen years together when will match a support limit orders on base
