GM Farcaster ep252 Friday May 30, 2025

@warpee.eth can you tell me about the history of girl scout cookies on farcaster and what happened with the box that @nounishprof bought?

Ok it's live. A collectible only for those who DID NOT subscribe to Farcaster Pro. And a new addition to @harmonybot collectibles going forward: every mint burns Harmonybot $CHAOS. shout out @nounishprof and @qt for the inspo. https://www.harmonybot.xyz/anti-pro

💭 Prompt: What are things you could “do in an hour” that would take others several days to do?

1) What

I've never really been a podcast person bc how does someone find the time to listen to that many hour long podcasts or more? 30-60 sec clips are the end state of video content consumption as proven by tiktok, reels, clipping culture, etc Subconsciously when someone says they listen to a lot of podcasts, I think that person must have a lot of free time and/or doesn't understand how to get that information more efficiently

New Feature for Farcaster Pro subscribers You now have the option to toggle never expiring message history for 1:1 direct cast conservations. Does not work for groups.

Sitting here in the trees, deep in thought. No one here knows what’s really on my mind. But you all do. A tongue-eating louse.

chat i missed out on the farcaster OG NFT by literally 270 fids i am still here a year+ later, still having a great time. building my company in the open social ecosystem. posting /firefits, pics of my cat and gym selfies, and stream of consciousness thoughts. having fun hyping up my friends on the TL, having good discussions about the future of tech and society, liking pretty pictures and funny memes an NFT will not make or break your time here - how you interact and engage with others will :)

I put together a list of prestigious tokens who embody what it means to be a Clanker. These are pushing innovation through creativity and backed by headstrong creators, whom I'm honored & grateful to build alongside. A toast! To those on the list and those upcoming 🍾🥂 https://clanker.world/champagne

nightmare fuel

The only parasite that functionally replaces an organ. The tongue-eating louse (Cymothoa exigua) is one of the strangest and most disturbing parasites in the animal kingdom. It enters through the gills of a fish and attaches itself to the base of the tongue. It severs the blood vessels, causing the tongue to wither and fall off. Then it replaces the tongue, attaching itself to the stump and functioning like a prosthetic tongue. The fish can still eat and live normally—with the louse acting as its new tongue.

you can now tip any @base.base.eth token you believe in

Fascinating analysis on the first 10,000 pro subscribers. We knew the NFT was going to drive subscriptions, but this is some of the first analysis of how intense the farming was. 24% of the people who minted had less than 10 followers. Almost 12% had 0 followers. Speculation on the future value of the NFT is right here in black and white. There is no way someone with 0 followers paid to “support” the protocol or get the future benefits of longer casts and more photos.

Press the Pro badge on your profile avatar to quickly check whether you're eligible for the limited NFT for early Pro subscribers. Works on both mobile and web.

fuck this bs

Introducing $PROCOIN, the community-led governance token for Farcaster Pro users. All 10k NFT holders are eligible for an airdrop. But there’s a twist. **The token will be untransferable until 500 Pro users claim.** In order to get a mandate as a community token, we need broad support. To claim, quotecast this post with the text “Ratifying @procoin governance” All 10k NFT holders are eligible, but the first 500 claimers will receive ~5x the allocation.

The legend himself @dwr.eth

And even they are talking about FC Pro lol

GM Farcaster is partnering with @matthewfox @arek and the /fctrivia team to bring Farcaster live trivia each Wednesday at noon ET throughout June! AND we're looking for sponsors to highlight during the game and help support the game and prize pool. Not familiar with /fctrivia? Check out this montage from our recent /fctrivia during CastOut where we asked Farcaster trivia plus questions about the sponsors (and players even did their homework researching the sponsors prior to the game!) We just launched a prop to @purple to sponsor 4 games in June plus we have 8 additional spots you can purchase on @highlight. You'll find the links for each week in the replies below. Got questions? drop them in the replies or dc me. We can't wait to bring back /fctrivia!

wrapped up a great call with some channel mods/owners talked about possible roadmap for channels, what's missing, magic moments. some common threads: - channels want more ways to drive engagement and growth, not just distribution. - discovery is important across apps, but so is having direct access to your community. - folks run different types of channels, so flexibility matters across feeds, onboarding and moderation. - the idea of owning your front page for your channel without relying on one app is powerful. thanks to those who still show up for channels!
