come on
gm i have not adrienne joining me today in the cohost seat for those who are unfamiliar with that lore toady has filled him before but we generally just call him not adrienne which he he owns that particular ens because adrienne had it for him
i have a confession to make i i don't think i renewed the
think i'm gonna have sad
so someone else has taken on the mantle of not adrienne or maybe it's still available
not it might be available if somebody wants to pick it up so excited to have you here and i love that hat i want that hat and need that hat just to let you know because
shout out minted merch these are some pot samples will be available soon
i'm hoping to get my hands on it very soon so that in these moments i can wear it so i went with the toad as a substitute and that's that's an exclusive substitute and which of toady's merch am i gonna wear so i went with the farcon arch with the gator there we go
this is this is why they call you the hostess with the most ess now i understand
i i do what i can i do what i can i would wear this brought this so you know
for having a swag off
it's too much i just can't so
i that's a very limited that's a very limited edition i don't think very many people have that hat
i love it but i it's more of a you know more of a souvenir
my favorite story about about making those hats and hoodies that that was a a very limited run of yellow collective merch that we did early on in in the collective and i brought one to must have been denver i guess i brought one to jesse and i was like here you go here's your swag bag
that's right
and then like the next day he brought me aside he's like tony i just have to tell you yellow is just not my color i can't wear it but i love it i'll wear it at home
i just can't wear it at home
like that's
that's how i feel about that
it is very yellow
very yellow it's very very yellow alright we are gonna get rolling so let's get get into it i'm gonna start with our little intro i'm gonna retweet things let people know we're live and we'll be back in just forty seconds

gm gm
farcaster it is a friday september 12 and you are here with nounish prof and toady hawk filling in for adrienne okay
was that a convincing adrienne or no
that was a really convincing adrienne that was just way too funny i'm i have one last retweet to do
while you're doing that i'll i'll apologize for making us late yesterday i had a stream with dish i think you saw it
it was
so good it's fun but i have a i have a really great camera it's called the insta three sixty
link two
shout out shout out it's a great camera pretty cheap too but it comes with for some reason the flimsiest tripod known to man it's amazing camera flimsy tripod and the great thing is it has like stabilization so like if i move over here or over here it kinda follows
me it comes with you oh that's right okay yeah
and it stabilizes me too but yesterday during the stream for some reason at that moment the tripod just started to like go like this
throughout the stream if you watch the stream my background slowly goes like this but i stay because it's got stabilization so it's like i'm there people thought i were going crazy because my background was slowly like slipping into the void during the stream
at the very end you looked like you're a little crooked but it it was at the very end when it was just you and nothing else on the screen is when i noticed it i was like what's going on
and then i jumped onto the stream i was like shit i have to fix that so that's why i was late but anyway
that was a great chat that was a great chat with dish i really enjoyed it it was great to hear him being interviewed by somebody else so it's good and i yeah loved kinda hearing his the way he's supporting the builders who are building on clanker i would just really appreciate so it's great to great to hear his
hanging out with him i'm heading
out you're going you're going boating
i don't know about that don't know if i'm gonna make it in time for the boating excursion it doesn't sound like but i i'm definitely gonna be driving from boston to vermont with with dish and and q and flood i think maybe is with us and grin so it's gonna be a fun little bostonian caravan plus one wayward canadian
one way that was crazy by the way that you're going all the way to boston and then driving back
to los
but i understand i understand
yeah there's a lot of there's a lot of shit going on so yeah borders not so fun to go across right now
yeah i i didn't even think about that and i'm like oh yeah that makes a lot of sense that's probably a good move alright let's dive in if you are watching over on twitter give us a retweet if you're watching on farcaster give us a share if you're watching in the mini app just share in the mini app and i'll be tipping all those things when i see them except the twitter stuff because i can't but you know in the other places
yeah when when tipping elon
when tipping elon come on i mean
you could do stuff with bankr you can like send
that's true
it's very banker in the feed that's kinda like
a point i could do something like that alright we're gonna dive into the breaking news actually before before i do that like the thing that has been trending the most on farcaster has been the you know sad political violence around charlie kirk so yeah i just wanna touch on that but we don't usually talk about sort of political news and that kind of thing and don't get into it but i i just wanted to sort of acknowledge that that was just an awful awful thing to see and experience and feel awful
about especially if you didn't want you didn't wanna see it like i i was one of the unfortunate people who unfortunately saw it against my will on twitter and it didn't feel very good so
no it didn't and i and i feel like yeah so it's it was just awful i feel incredibly horrible for his children and all of that it's just an awful situation so just wanted to acknowledge that but we won't dive too much into that just because that's normally not what we do
so i just wanted to kind of acknowledge before i jump into things it might seem less important like i am aware of the important things happening in the world just fyi but there's plenty of people talking about that who have a lot more expertise in the area so okay moving on to this this is from jacek this morning security update recently attackers gained access to a personal device and compromised certain degen hot wallets previously used for smart contract deployments here's everything you need to know before major harm could occur we secured and transferred ownership of all deployed contracts including the degen airdrop layer zero contracts and other critical deployments unfortunately the attackers were able to steal roughly 300 k worth of locked arrow and 200 k of our solana degen pool what's secure our treasury the most critical piece all deployment wallets migrated to new infrastructure and our social accounts step we've taken since then we've moved all operational funds and deployments to hardware wallets brought in top security experts to reinforce every layer and tightened protections across devices emails and infrastructure community impact for the community nothing changes degens can continue using products as usual your holdings are safe and the ecosystem remains intact one important note any posts emails or messages that appeared between 6pm and 8pm poland time i have no idea what time that is yesterday did not originate from our team we wanna be clear that communications during that window should not be trusted please stay extra cautious of phishing and fake accounts in the coming days this is a tough moment but far from the end of the world we're committed to learning from this closing every gap and continuing to build a stronger more secure future for the degen community the hat stays on so then he goes on to say he'll be hosting an x space later today to connect with the community and share updates so look for that
prof this is one of those fabled they call them bullish hacks degen up 5% on the day
i know i was looking for that i was like ugh i was gonna go look and i'm like oh it's probably crashed to the ground and is dead and i'm like oh it's up okay
that's well they didn't get away with much i guess so i guess in the grand scheme of things of the millions of dollars of assets that d jane has as a property got away they got away pretty scot free
yeah
but still a wake up call for sure
yeah for sure and also be careful when you see something communicated by a team that doesn't seem right and those happen periodically when this when situations come up and just if something feels like that seems weird that doesn't seem like something jacek would say or something like that or some like amazing thing that all of a sudden pops up that you have to get in on immediately
yeah like if jacek uses eastern standard time you know it's a hack
you know it's a hack
poland time or bust
exactly like i don't even know what time that was but just be careful out there so sorry to see this and glad it was contained quickly alright moving on this from our friend dylsteck taking notes on this thread from today's biweekly farcaster dev call dylsteck used dylan used to do this all the time and he this is the first time
he's been doing it job
he got a job and then like i know stopped like giving us free work it's annoying i know him and that like whole base job thing like real work amazing rude so rude so he did give a really good thread here of all the things that were talked about some protocol updates proposed for app based storage timeline is october fip for profile tokens fc app does something similar as a feature but this will push to the protocol so that's interesting fast i
mean you can finally see which token has the most people with with it in their with their sorry
with the
most people with the token in their profile
yeah
and and why it's betrman
and why it's betrman exactly you'll be able to search this on yeah on dune or something fast replication for running snapchains nodes mini app updates new experimental sign manifest which we talked about the other day enables people to create apps bill app builders like vo lovable etcetera to sign a mini app manifest for a user and then finally farcaster app updates design giving the app a new coat of paint wallet shipping discovery features onboarding fixed a lot of issues causing failure will continue to improve rewards working on a new reward system to incentivize bringing people so incent i'm assuming invites growth spending a lot of time cycles on reactivating and bringing in new users so that was the update from the call yesterday thank you dylan some like you know nothing nothing super sexy but all good stuff all good things especially when they move stuff to the protocol level that people want that's always a good thing
i feel like i feel like that meme with the the guy i don't know what movie it's even from but the one who's like mhmm yeah yeah i understand some of those words you know the theme
i get that one yeah mhmm that's a word that looks familiar oh that's me all the time when i'm doing the dev stuff and it really helps when adrienne's here so that like she can explain the words i'm reading and i've done that a few times where i'm like i'm reading words and i have no idea what they mean and so i'm gonna turn this over to you now
ostensibly english
you can explain everything i just said sign manifest being one of those things which i now understand after i tried to create a app
right yeah
that is the that is the good thing when you try to create an app even if it doesn't work out it's at least like you learn something in the process like i
guess you could say you i guess you could say you manifested that for yourself
i manifested that i actually learned that there's a whole dev section of farcaster that i was unaware of
there sure is
yeah i had no idea i was like oh look at that
with blackjack and strippers no
exactly exactly they're hiding it this from dwr favorite crypto analyst accounts on x twitter question mark people who post in-depth analysis and takes on given crypto projects themes etcetera for example someone who is posting an x thread or article on the bull case for eth sol hype creator coins prediction markets so i guess he's looking for people to onboard so there you go or talk to about why they haven't onboarded so if you have favorites okay
maybe it's related to the new feature that you're probably gonna talk about later maybe maybe maybe it could be looking for it looks like it's ai generated but maybe they're planning to pull in like token mentions or something from analysts
maybe it could be it could be that it could be just that he's just looking for feedback as to why some of these folks haven't moved over to farcaster sometimes that's what he's doing as well to get a handle on how do we get them over here as possible so if you have accounts you wanna suggest go drop into this thread let them know and this is the questions part of the show this from linda if you're actively involved in telegram groups for crypto trading would love to hear what features you like most about telegram for this and what annoys you feel free to dm me if easier so you can drop into this thread or you can dc linda if you'd like this is when they're you can kinda tell what they're building or what they're trying to do by the questions they ask sometimes so this is obviously trying to improve chat so we'll see what they
can i feel like i would trade in in a chat on farcaster and i i have tried a little bit too with tba and and bankr yeah and yet and yet i hate trading on on telegram i don't know i just can't get get around it for some reason
i i don't like telegram and i can't explain why because it has a lot of great features and i get it and i just for some reason it's just the thing it's the last messaging thing i wanna use
well some of us have ptsd from 2021 when there was a lot of scams happening on telegram because one thing i i find telegram doesn't do very well is like any kind of curation reporting of scams and so like there's one guy who's got there's one guy who's got the same name as me on telegram with an extra k so toady hawk not sure of the pronunciation but and he's trying to scam people all the time and they're always messaging me and i've reported it like six times and no one gives a fuck so it's like sorry am i allowed to say that on this family show
you can you can say that on this family show yes
nobody nobody cares and so i feel like that's what like kinda pisses some people off it's like if you've been there long enough you're like okay come on like do something to stop these scammers or slow them down that's
yeah i i just yeah there's something about it it just the only thing i use it for honestly right now is zach xbt because he has a he the and he just uses it as like an announcement thing it's not even a chat thing but that's the only thing that i'm really looking at you know or the only thing i have notifications on for
i'm in a few chats over there against my will but
yeah i'd really i used to be i still am probably in some i just never look at them how about that
someone's gonna meme this and they're be like old man and woman yells at at telegram
yell at yell at telegram cloud coming up this is from b again i told you this is the question section what are the your what are your biggest feature requests or annoyances with the wallet so if you have suggestions for the wallet there's a few things here from jacek needs buy sell history for every token i would like that very much
that too by the way rainbow only implemented that recently it's so nice like i can't remember
how many they
paid for this token and i'm talking like yesterday i'm not talking about like six months ago i wanna know you know what i buy yesterday
i just wanna click on the token and just see all my transactions for that token i definitely yeah agree with that one way too difficult to find tokens when swapping activity never shows all my transactions constantly find myself needing to check base scan so those are good if you have other suggestions drop them in for v i agree with those j c
it's interesting that v asked for an example of three because like that is a very common like my my response would almost be like just go check anyone's activity tab it's probably missing activity like yeah that's the one weak point i think
at the moment i i think the wallet is so good i can't believe how fast the swaps are swaps are insane like really fast and also was going through and onboarding my students so i was sending them some funds and i did have to do that with one student directly i was doing it mostly as a as a batch and she was even surprised she's like wow that was fast i'm like i know sometimes i don't even think it went and it did
prof was like back in my day
back in my day
yeah ethereum mainnet we had to do exactly
ethereum mainnet and only metamask it was the only thing i was letting them use so that was
$20 to send you $2 it was very efficient exactly i've i've been singing the praises of of warplet a lot recently on the feed here and sorry farcaster and and over on on x as well i'm really impressed with the product they've been iterating super fast you can tell that they've obviously decided to really like double click and like zoom in on this as a potential growth opportunity
absolutely yeah
it's pretty cool like you can see how like i love apps like interface and some of these like people who've been pioneers in the space you can see how like op it is when you already own the social graph to just like include these types of features i i i made a post yesterday about how easy it is to send crypto to someone if you know their farcaster account and how like they've kind of accomplished something
that you can really manage to
do at a broad at the broad enough scale and we're like a few times in the past week i've had oh i need to send this person crypto i'm not exactly sure which is their main wallet but who cares send it to them on webcast and if they're active send it to them on on facebook rather and if they facebook okay facebook
see you later far farcaster is that the word you're
referring to yeah i don't even go on facebook now i'm gonna get memed for sure
anyways send
it to the send it to the warplet and you know it's gonna get where it's supposed to go is my point
exactly yeah i it it's so much easier same kind of thing so with my students like having them sign up and being able to just go to their account make sure i'm following them blah blah blah and then send the money right from there so it was super easy and i had to do the same thing yesterday i was sending someone some funds to for commission for something we're gonna do with extra and i just sent it to their wallet to their i just sent it to their account on on farcaster and they were like wait i forgot i had a wallet on here i'm like yeah just just use that so yeah it makes it so easy so easy to find to find people so appreciate that we appreciate the warplet we do love it we love warplet on just ignore it or hide it okay so if you have a weird token that comes in and then all of a sudden you have like a thousand dollars extra in your warplet that you didn't expect it's probably a scam
wait what but i already spent that
no you're surprised you won't be able to swap it there is no liquidity so your advice from horsefacts here just ignore it or hide it you can hide now in the warplet it should disappear shortly scam tokens are like junk mail but they can but they can't drain your wallet don't visit the website in the name don't send it swap it or burn it just hide it and move on and it will be removed and that happened the other day with another token popping up so be careful out there
to look up i like to look up the source that send it to me and then create my own scam token and send it back to them it's a little bit it's a
lot of work just to just to troll somebody but okay
this from garrett sec chair paul atkins we must admit that crypto's time has come highlights from the speech will ensure capital can be raised on chain that's a big one most crypto
assets gonna tell them
i know most crypto assets are not securities plan for a single regulatory framework to allow for super app trading platforms sounds familiar yes it does sound familiar that to me rings of i've been talking to robinhood that's oh really
right i guess i was thinking of the base app but i guess both apply
no they both apply but i have a feeling that he is probably more tuned in to traditional finance rather than actual crypto as as much you know i think that's fairly new to him
maybe but i do i do think
coinbase just
able to
do for sure yeah he's friendly to it and open to it and sees the future but i think i think a lot of the view right now is seeing the future through the lens of the larger institutions that already exist so but we'll see but good good news all around you can take a look at this link it'll be in our show notes and watch the video and learn more about what he had to say but it is good news this from oops what are you doing this from adam and i'm just gonna summarize this real quick because something i did not know that you can do is actually ask about specific tokens to ask gina and it will give you an analysis of the token so this will help so this was in response to talking about what i was teaching with my students in tokenomics and he said if you're teaching people about tokenomics then it's equally important to understand how to hedge against risks before engaging and what tools you have at your disposal to help out if you're new to this space you're probably not going to know what to look for to avoid being rugged but having llms at your disposal radically changes that one of my favorite use cases for gina ask gina.eth is to do a token analysis so i know what red flags i need to navigate so i think this is pretty helpful i hadn't thought about using ask gina in that way so
i don't know how i don't know how helpful it is for launchpad tokens like i'm curious to see what it says about extra for example it'll be like this is a clanker the liquidity is the same as every other clanker
have a
good day have a
good day but it's still it would be very useful for ones that maybe aren't and can give us a little bit more insight so very cool this from caro i learned something new yesterday she's a model and was modeling at the victoria's secret show so this was the rundown of the bsx show it was a full day event we kicked things off with a run and the refreshments before stepping on stage to model the new drop and collections
if i had i just wanna say if
i had
to do a run the morning i wouldn't be in underwear like on a runway for a long like for a few hours for sure
i know
i'd still
be sweating she's running what i love most about modeling is sports in sports is the team attitude between the colleagues such a supportive community and always fun and the reason i'm showing you this too is was this new york fashion week is here and we kicked it off with victoria's secret sports show onboarded a few models to farcaster and brugge was so exciting
do they mean like ai models or like real people
like like fashion models like victorious secret models which i think is just crazy
no nobody tell king
i know right this is like
king if you're if you're watching this and you saw this you no you didn't
the moment the moment he's been waiting for so i thought that was really cool that she's out there working fashion week and also inviting people to farcaster so amazing thank you and this was really cute i like this so this was odd jobs several people helped me pay for awards to motivate my students yesterday which she was quote casting several people this is from jackie several people helped me stop crying yesterday today and she was quote casting nounish apparently several people found me funny yesterday so i don't know what happened to you yesterday but there were some good things happening on the timeline and i love seeing that so that makes me happy hold on one second while i bring up the next group of links so i'm using netnose has been working with me in the background and giving me suggestions on how to not crash my computer with all my links and i've appreciated him tremendously in doing so
that's the reason why netnose hasn't gotten anything that no i'm just kidding
sorry yeah i've been taking him away he's been busy in my dms going no not like that and like like that's not what i meant
that's basically every conversation i have with with matt knows
i mean i like that i like that
we've talked about this
yeah so funny anyway okay now some base news just a couple things from base this is from afrochicks by the way i am now a base uk ambassador excited to announce afrochicks as our next base uk ambassador and all star professional athlete turned crypto content creator 11 time national triple jump champion and nft project founder it's those stories that have us incredibly excited about bringing the uk on chain so that's awesome that was really cool to see and that is cool to naomi i think she's coming to vermont so i think we're gonna see her at base camp so
she must have just moved they might as well just moved to north america at this point
i know i know but then she
not now that she's the uk
ambassador defeat the purpose of the uk ambassador toady
the good thing is the good thing is she'll have base diplomatic immunity if she comes over here now so
okay as per the uk ambassador a thing
is now yeah
it's an official network state now that allows for diplomatic immunity amazing
yeah it it just means you can rug people and they can't prosecute you no
i'm just kidding
this is from oxbead we forgot to tell you trading on base no gas equals no gas fees we pay
the on base base
app base app sorry base app base app no gas fees we pay the bill you just send it for base chain only yeah sorry got that part base app base app i was reading too quickly let me i keep forgetting to check the comments by the way oh i i missed this one let me put it up here toady hey what's up
i never know how to say his name x p p a i a i anyway he's an awesome member of our yeah
he's shout out xb
we're gonna call him xb
and this i noticed this from caro earlier i'm wearing the same cap as prof right now nice to see the old crew and we're gonna
caro i'm disappointed that you're not wearing the same cap as me i'm you know
i know
i thought we were friends
nobody has that cap yet so it's kind of not his fault literally like two people own it
actually nobody because mine's mine's different than burs so these are one on ones
i don't know if you'll be able to see this but i noticed something yesterday and i hopefully you can see it in the picture do you did you see what happened with the heart watch carefully
with the what
see if it goes with the heart it it does this little flashy thing on the base app and it's just really cute it was just a nice little touch and when you click on the heart it does this little flash
firework y thing
little little firework y thing and it's just cute so just noticed it yesterday and thought i would share if anyone else has not noticed that yet so nice little touch
probably like replied they probably did like a long thread of all of the technical improvements on base app and then prof replied and was like i like this heart flashy i like
this heart thing it's really cute they're like we integrated blabbity blabbity blab i'm like yeah but the heart yeah we're with the flashy heart accurate it's accurate this from frontend next week new reward new week new rewards jeez the tip in and reply collaboration has been a huge success and we're kicking off week two with even more energy i'm incredibly hyped to announce that the tip in team has generally offered to add a significant bonus to this week's allocation pool to show our commitment to this partnership and to rewarding this amazing community i've matched their contribution from the reply treasury this means that on top of the regular rewards we're adding a bonus pool of point 5% of the total reply supply for this week's allocators so there
you go that's a 50% bump up from from what we had done before so yeah it's great
i yeah mine doubled so that's fantastic i have lots to give away so i'll be
interesting math like 50% pop up props like mine doubled
mine doubled it did
it did that just means that you were such a good engager last week that you got more allocation i guess this week
i don't know i don't know what happened but i have like a double amount that i did last week so that
was beautiful
so very cool this from okay we've had a couple launches this week this is from and let me just very clearly say again just my regular disclaimer cryptocurrency is volatile d y 0 r n f a etcetera etcetera okay before we move into this part so this was from the from tiktok team repost tiktok have fun earn money join the hunt and don't forget to call your friends top inviters will hunt first eat most so this is launching on monday it's will be that you'll be reposting tiktoks on farcaster and being able to earn on that in the likes.fun app we're weaponizing degen speculation to pay creators more than tiktok ever did likes.fun is live join the tiktok hunt now mini app link below so likes the token that goes along with this launched yesterday i think or the day before so that's what this is connected with and i know that you had a i was gonna say you had a call with the the team yar0x yeah tell us what's going on there
yeah i had a call with yar0x because i could see some obvious overlaps with what we're doing with betterment i wanted to see if there was any way to collab and it was a it was a really great call i i was super bullish leaving that call he's thought about this a lot obviously he's been planning it for for a while and building it and i think one of the assumptions i had originally is that people would just be posting links to the tiktoks and i wasn't sure you know how viral like the the viral potential of that on the farcaster feed but i found out yesterday that the way they're building it is that hunters will post the link so it's easy on the hunting side you just find a link that you like and and if you would share it with your significant other or your friends you post it on on from tiktok as as in their mini app as a hunt and then they actually download it from the client side so they download the video from the client side and reupload it onto onto farcaster as sort of a native video so i think that'll be a lot better for discovery i think it's it's gonna be interesting and they may get some pushback from people saying oh you're stealing content or whatnot but the reality is is like this thing actually this exact thing happens already with reels and tiktoks on a large scale like there's some big accounts like and some of these that basically have made a living stealing content and giving sometimes no attribution and and usually no money to the people they steal it from so in a way it's kind of like giving a new audience to these creators and the the one piece they'll need to figure out is like how to incentivize the creators to come and understand that they've earned likes for their content because if we can get them to do that and claim claim the likes and like understand that they just made money for their content then his his idea or his plan is essentially to onboard the creators at that juncture to be like you know now you can sign up so that no one can hunt your videos but rather your videos will all automatically be posted to from tiktok and you'll make the hunt fee as well so that's kind of like his his idea to like all creators yeah on onto farcaster my biggest takeaway is that i think this is a a one of the better strategies i've seen for trying to get video content on farcaster i think trying to get people just to organically post in a new place or get new net new creators is a really difficult ask as we've seen because the farcaster team pushed it pretty heavily and it still didn't really move the needle in terms of like getting new people with a few exceptions to come and post vertical video here so i am i'm excited to to see what happens there i also personally have like run across tiktoks that i thought were relevant to farcaster and i have posted posted them to the feed in fact doing that like a month ago yar0x first reached out to me when i posted a tiktok on the feed he was like hey you know watch watch this space because you'll be able to earn money for this in the future and that's how it kinda came onto my radar but anyway all that to say really cool product and we see a lot of overlap with what we're trying to do with with betterment in terms of like building new scaffolding for creators to earn from their creativity that's already being you know expanded like they're already making the things so how can we help them get get paid for for those efforts in new ways so that's that's pretty interesting and he one of the interesting things about the meeting was that he actually came up with a new mode idea for the betterment app that we hadn't even really considered before which i don't wanna share too much but i'll just say that like
i'm i was hoping for some alpha on this part
well yeah i can still get it'll be it'll still be alpha but he basically just said like why does the first action that happens in betterment have to be an on chain action like does it have to be a mint does it have to be buying a zora coin or could it just be some other off chain activity like for example amplifying it from tiktok's post as before you do the spin so i'll leave leave you with that but we're we're cooking something so it'll be fun
very interesting alright yeah i think it's a it's a worthy experiment i've often i've found a few things that i reposted on farcaster i don't do it often because i don't spend that much time on tiktok but yeah i agree there's times where there's just something funny or just something crypto relevant that caught my caught my eye that makes sense to
or ideally something not crypto relevant but to a crypto audience it's real
it's crypto relevant yeah exactly things like that yes exactly alright moving on in other other builder news we have this recessdotfun is another new one this is a game platform that i wasn't familiar with i was familiar with some of the games but i didn't realize they had created a whole mini app with all of the games in there now and this relates to the recess token that officially launched but it's a whole game platform so go check that out if you've played digits that is one of the games that's built into recess so digits is like
same team as well or i'm assuming
same game same team yeah
i'm not trying to brag but i bought the pico top of recess so not
oh did you good for you
you're so lucky trade copy trade toady hawk if you wanna lose half your money
fantastic way to live
but it's early it's it's early and if they build a platform with any traction it's it could be an
interesting one so it's actually a pretty good game platform digits makes my head spin it's like how fast can you do math it's just not a game i wanna play almost ever
you're like how fast can you do math and prof's like no
no no not very not very i'm out this is not fun but it's a good educational game so it might be useful this from brixbounty this was a really useful take on like an explainer so this from brixbounty okay take two clanker v four liquidity as i casted literally into the void this am decided to rewrite since thought more folks would benefit from understanding pool mechanics hope dish will correct me if i'm incorrect the way the lp is set up for likes so looking specifically at likes in the way that they have done some of the lock and things like that is there are five pools which unlock as the market cap rises 10% at launch 50% at $1.30 k 15% at $4.50 k 20% at 50,000,000 5% at 500,000,000 two notes this will tend to push tokens that are sold to the $4.50 k range pretty quick solid sorry
if they're sold sold they'll go the opposite direction
yes that are solid to the $4.50 k range pretty quick as the available liquidity starts shallow once above $4.50 k market cap liquidity shown on dex or geco includes 25% still salted away salted away so for likes the active farmer
might be a farmer term
might be the active lp is currently 8,630,000,000 likes 225 k and three zero nine k weth this functionality overstates the available liquidity at a glance yet shows the depth that will get added when a token really cranks or clanks
surely clanks yeah
yeah i mean we're just gonna rewrite this a little bit come on brixb say if a token match bankr or clankers run think this is a great strategy long term for encouraging size trades on dex for the most successful tokens as liquidity will be thick when tokens reach 50,000,000 and 500,000,000 there's also a variable fee function that increases the swap fee during times of greatest volatility capturing fees for the token launcher also it should be noted if a team that clank sets aside a percentage of the supply at launch or or competes completes a dev buy these would further reduce circulating supply would love a way for these situations to be easily noted looking at a token that's a good point
amen to that because we we struggle with that with with betr because we basically have 50% of the supply set aside from day one for community and there's really no way in the clanker interface to let people know that so that decks screener and these other places would would pick it up and probably never will because it's immutable contracts but it would have been nice if we could have had that marked somewhere that there was a dev buy and that there was a community vault so that people understood because right now i mean our effective market cap is like basically two and a half times less than what it actually is because of the circulating supply but at a glance you can't really tell that
i think that would yeah that's a great point because i think the only place you could see that is if you went to clanker.world right i think
even then no you literally would have to be plugged into the project and and listening to the founders understand what's what's happened with the token so it's yeah
yeah i guess it doesn't say it on there i think i'm seeing i'm thinking about that from the admin side so maybe it doesn't isn't apparent so yeah that would be something that would be useful to have that be a little little more clear
one thing i noticed about brixb post is that's quite a jump from 450,000 to like what was it 50 mil it's like yeah i love that i love that no man's land and and the implication that once you get past 450,000 $5,050,000,000 is the next step on the road boys yeah so yeah i love love yeah and i also love the bullishness i love the bullishness of like thinking about a lot of these clankers being at 50,000,000 and 500,000,000 market cap in the near future
let's go that be lovely
send it it looks good send it
send it sounds good to me sounds good to me alright let's talk about better we have some things to talk about here you wrote a post today that made my life a little bit easier
that's actually not me
that's oh wasn't you who wrote that
are you talking about these the better news
no yeah who wrote that
well well hey let me let me let me break some news for for you pra because i know you can't keep track of everything that's happening on farcon
i literally can't
this is a new feature of the of the warplet that just dropped overnight and it's basically a news feed on every token so go and go and look at the the better token on farcast
when did that happen literally overnight see that
it happened last night yeah
did anybody post about it i don't think anybody well i did about it besides you
know what i mean
from the team like i didn't see like dan or v or even horsefacts like that's
get spin maybe not even fully announced yet but it's basically like an an ai summary of everything that's happening for the token so what you're seeing here is like ai scraping much frankly most of my posts mostly my posts about the token but it is really cool as a as an aggregator because you know guess what not everybody this is gonna be surprising for you professor not everybody is terminally on chain some people have jobs
not everyone just spends their whole day looking at farcaster and even no i don't know why things
i don't know why
but that's so funny
apparently that's that's true and so yeah this is a great opportunity for people to come in so let's see what's happening on my token i think it's a huge ship great leverage of of ai because you know it does usually a pretty good job of scraping and figuring out it's like it's basically like apple intelligence for tokens except good
so i'm assuming sloke was working on this and sloke i did not check sloke's account but i don't think he posted about it anyway
i saw noise i saw dev post about it yesterday i was like what the heck and then i went and checked and it wasn't there and i'm like am i going crazy and then v actually
oh this might have been the beta testing yeah they were testing it
but i'm in the beta test but i didn't see it but then varun said replied to me and said we had to take it down to fix something and it's coming back up and then by this morning it it was back up live so i mean we can definitely talk about these things but i just want
well cool
to mention that they
they are that's fantastic so thank you for breaking news to me yeah you're welcome unusual
i take my cohosting responsibilities very seriously
i appreciate it you've probably brought things to the table today so this is very cool so this is the ai aggregated news about betr yep so top betr news which i was like wow this is it looked just like this what now now that makes sense it looked like this
yeah well that i mean yeah that sure
exactly had this ready to go
what we're saying is that toady hawk can be replaced by ai within the next six months
but not quite yet because we you had like so much going on so it must have picked up a lot of this stuff is what i'm what i'm seeing as well as like other things that people are talking about i'm guessing the numbers though it may have picked up from other casts like of these numbers about like 200 people co building or even picking it up from the apps itself so that is pretty cool this is probably coming directly from the token in terms of staking has been live for seventeen days i'm not sure maybe it's
i made a cast about that so i think it's primarily pulling stuff from
from cast
from key accounts that are talking about it or or i guess you can see that most of these have the the cash tag in the in them so i think they're probably pulling from casts that have
when people are putting
most likely
yeah that's probably a cash tag nice
that's what they're called i think
i didn't make up they are now
no no i didn't make it up i wish i did but i didn't
and i'm gonna just pull this one because this is a little easier to read on screen so this is a few different things so do you wanna just really quick level set in case we have anyone who doesn't know what betr is what is betr we've done this before but just really quick what is betr and like what are the new things you guys have implemented in the past couple
weeks why did you why did you take away my crib notes
now i
have to
i know i'll put them back up i'll put them back up
for you i'm just kidding no so well actually that post was a question from raven fifty millimeter who was asking sort of saying i i see you guys all over the timeline i know you i think you're building awesome stuff i hear creators saying that they're getting paid on betramep but you know what the hell is betramep and so i tried to just write you know one cast it's a long cast but hey i'm paying for farcasturepro so i gotta get i gotta get some money back for it get my value out of my money so i i did a post that just kind of tries to explain exactly what betterment is and there is a lot of moving parts but basically betterment is a mini app one of the most popular mini apps on farcaster and tba we've been in the top 15 i think now for two months we've been sort of battling back and forth for the top spot with the the new rips app but yeah
very popular battling in the past couple weeks it's been funny
yeah so but yeah it's very top top ranked popular mini app and and the concept is very simple it's basically like how can we use a little bit of a dopamine rush to gamify the experience of collecting on chain content because the reality is is that nobody is collecting on chain content the way they used to in 2021 2022 2023 even to some extent there was a time where artists could put out an open edition and and they can be assured that it would mint out 3,000 4,000 5,000 copies and you know they'd they'd gain new fans they'd make money to pay their bills and that time has basically sadly passed and so yeah the idea for betterment was like what if we could sort of find new ways to incentivize people to show up in an app three times a week collect some on chain on chain content support a creator and then you know spin a neon wheel and get a little dopamine rush and and have a variable reward there as as a little bit of a a carrot to get them in the app and it works i mean we have prize pools of $1,500 three times a week at least on mondays wednesdays and fridays at 3pm est i don't know what that is poland time but maybe can let us know
sorry and
when people when people jump into the app there's like there's notification they jump in and it's kind of like this this rush to to collect the additions before the pool runs out essentially and we've we've done multiple things over the past few months to try to lengthen the games because we want as many people as possible to be able to participate and even still the games typically don't last much longer than twelve thirteen maybe fifteen minutes anyone who holds 50,000,000 better
minutes yeah well i haven't seen it last that long
well i mean i'm counting the better
twelve second ones that's for sure
the ten minutes so we it's open for ten minutes okay for early access to everyone who holds 50,000,000 better and basically you're guaranteed to spend if you're in that in that group so the first ten minutes usually like about half of them will go and then it goes public where basically anybody can participate and and then it it usually ends very quickly in in a few minutes so you have to be kinda be paying attention but yeah it creates this moment for creators that they haven't really seen since 2021 and and if they're new to the space they've never seen it ever where where like a bunch of people rush in to collect their content and all of a sudden you know they've got all these new collectors their notifications are going crazy from the app and they made you know $5,600 in real creator rewards they don't have to wait for volume volume payments from from any other platform they just get creator rewards half in eth half in betr for having been featured on the app so that's that's kinda how it works for for the actual people playing it's just you know you you're logging in you're collecting something fun it could be a zora coin in some cases it could be a paragraph coin or it can be an nft and then you're you're spinning that wheel and potentially getting a reward and it's fun
it is fun and also you added some staking options so i wanna also you were hungry
you were hungry
sort of the tokenomics of what you're doing because you're making some very smart moves to get people to hold one being offering those you know special bonuses or benefits to those holding 50,000,000 better or more yeah which includes the chat where you get early access to spin but it also includes like poker games that are just some of them are just for those who are holding 50,000,000 better or some are for those who are staking so talk a little bit about because then that's the other part is adding the staking option where people are putting that 50,000,000 or however much into the staking app and then earning some yield back for doing so so talk a little bit about those choices
okay so first and foremost i wanna say that the number one thing you can do to make people hold your token is to have a token that doesn't suck mhmm to have a project that people are interested in
that's true
and they wanna hold all these things are meme are meme coins like a lot of people you know they they they sort of recoil at the idea of a meme coin but like betterment is a a meme coin but that doesn't mean it's a project coin but that doesn't mean it can't have utility and a reason to exist as well and so we've kind of like since the beginning that knows and i have tried to think of interesting ways to use a token we didn't wanna use it as a token gate for example which might have been the most simple and easy way to implement it in the app but then it's like you know you're trying to get people you're trying to get your app to go viral the very first thing you're telling people is nope not yet you know go buy this token to to even try it so that was kind of a nonstarter for us and and so the better believers tier was kind of like a compromise where we were like you know this is a way that we can you know reward people who do believe early on and give them some extra perks and those extra perks ended up being more and more valuable as time went on and and the app became more popular and and as we just talked about like basically you're guaranteed to get your spins in if you're a member of the of the 50,000,000 or higher group and if you're not it's it's tough you gotta get in there and get get in there fast to try to try to get them so it ended up being a real benefit yeah and in terms of of like the poker and whatnot i mean that's just really you know i i believe strongly in community building and then if you're gonna build something worth building for the long term you need to have a community there that cares about what you're building and so you know bringing ber on as our cfo chief fund officer a few months back was i think a good call because she's just been
very
good helping to sort of bring people from all over the farcaster ecosystem who are interested in in what we're doing and and you know wanna have a little bit of degen fun they like playing free roll poker and so that's just again
a whole bunch other party i assume that at some point you were playing poker and you were like ugh i better fold and you were like wait that's an idea i mean as you
know all of my main ideas do come
from puns
yeah i mean if it didn't come from a pun we're not doing it so that you're you're not far off there
it's like
and then was
so i've tried to design another a new poker series and i'm like that motherfucker it came up with such a good name for a poker game and i can't come up with something better and now it's making me mad and it's really frustrating
sorry not sorry
i'm like i really like that name such a good name anyway continue on
yeah let's talk about staking so again staking i wanna say too staking was not designed as a mechanism to get people to hold the token against their will notably there's no lock on our staking so there's no we can get stake anytime we can on stake anytime you want the only penalty quote unquote is that you'll lose your karma boosts for that week and the karma boost go towards future airdrops and better so there's a little bit of a sort of disincentive but you can do it at any time and you can restake at any time and yet they don't you know we've we've we've started at least not yet anyway you know
not yet
we don't count any chickens that aren't hatched yet but seventeen days into staking and we've had 30
when you hit that 500,000,000 level some people might unstake
just saying they're welcome to i hope they do but 33 i'll be living on an island now 33,000,000,000 tokens have been staked in seventeen days which is if you look at at deck screener you're gonna say oh that's 33% of the supply because it's a typical clanker with a 100,000,000,000 supply but if you actually pay attention and know that we set aside 50% of the supply for community initiatives at the top you actually realize that that's 6660% sorry of the circulating supply has already been staked is pretty nuts pretty crazy our community goes pretty hard and the reason why they stake is because we are sharing revenue like we right we believe that like tokens can do things you know you you know you can just do things and soak in your tokens and so with betr staking basically you you stake and you earn you earn 10% back in betr rewards every single day and of course we had to keep it sort of thematic to what we're trying to do with the app so we have a daily free spin you know people were always complaining that there was nothing to do in the app on the days when we don't have a content spin so now no more complaining every single day you can do a free spin in the yield and the staking part of the app and what that spin does is it basically claims your rewards for that day compounds them restakes them and then gives you a chance to win one of our stack pots we get a daily a daily staking stack pot of 1,000,000 tokens and then a a few weekly ones of 10,000,000 tokens and then a big monthly one of 50,000,000 tokens which
is like
$607,100 bucks so yeah just gives people something a little bit fun to do and people have been really enjoying it gets them into the app every day to check on their rewards and and see what's going on
nothing feels better than staking a token you believe in talk about pulling all the the the keys the key notes there mika and then also i'll play the one for i can't even 147,000,000 better stakes and above
talking about yeah
i'm not gonna read that whole thing yeah i yeah
yeah we're doing a series right now burt's putting on a series called high stakes high stakes poker sorry if that's another one that we're taking from you
yes yes another yes
and it's a series of four progressive tournaments where you have to be the first one you had to be staked $55,000,000 and this one's 25 and the next one's 50 and the next one after that's 200 so the 200 one's gonna be fun because like i used to watch a lot of like like the actual high stakes poker show that used to air back on back in like poker heyday of the early two thousands and that was one of my favorite shows to just binge watch as like background noise so i'm i'm i'm trying to think if maybe we can like figure out a way to livestream that $202,100,000,000
i can help you with that
poker free will yeah that could be fun we'll we'll chat offline
we could use poker now and people can chat and talk yeah
could be fun
do some things yeah and it's and that's one of the things like i said we've been i've been doing some little poker series and it's been really fun because you get people actually talking and on screen so it's a little different yeah and bert's helped with that and it's been it's been a lot of fun but i i love the poker games there's a couple that you don't have to be holding any better you can just play on tuesdays and thursdays if you wanna play they're public they're open and it's a good way that if you are a good poker player you could earn some better so there you go
yeah that was to credit to to her credit that was something that borrow was really adamant about early on too she was like you know just like you haven't token gated the app i also don't think you should token gate the community because yep i mean i'll otherwise how do people find out about it and come in and and and see it and and figure out what's going on and that's worked really well because it basically what we did is that if you if you cash in a free will free will tournament that she puts on you win double prizes if you are a better believer so it's a little latent incentive to to be in that group if you're gonna poker because
and then there's a few games that are just for if you are in that chat so that are just for the better believers or just for the stakers and i think it's smart you're creating incentives for the community around the token but also it's a marketing opportunity for the token as well and the project so many things happening all at once it's been very smart the approach has been really smart it's been fun to kinda watch it evolve over time so i love it what else do you have coming that you wanna chat about any other new collabs or anything that you wanna mention i know you've just recently partnered with matcha we had talked about that a while back and i didn't get back with you but you you handled it
actually interesting thing about that is that it's completely separate from our conversation they actually approached us and and we're like hey we love we love what's happening on the timeline you know everyone's talking about betr all the time like how can we get involved
i'm big
fan of i'm a
big fan
of the zora team and matcha and and what they're doing and they're ogs in the space and so it's always it's always nice when you when you wanna talk about partners you want partners that you know you can trust to promote to your audience too because it's a big responsibility for someone like you or like me you know if you're gonna be like swap now on like homer swap or something like this you know like random decks and then and then unfortunately like rug their users a month later exactly not not great but you know much is not going anywhere so yeah it's been fun to to partner with them and they really get what what betterment's trying to do they they basically sponsored month full of rounds where we're you know perfect commissioning artists and creators to create sort of matcha matcha related content our first round was this past tuesday i know matcha monday as well we didn't get to do it on monday because of the giant npm scare we decided the best thing to do was to postpone the round just because a lot of people were freaked out even though we knew that all of our dependencies were fine we we ended up postponing that monday matcha to tuesday matcha and we had a beautiful piece that was commissioned by kimmy duke if you don't know her amazing artist
love her yeah
and we were able to she was able to earn you know $400 in in eth plus we actually rounded up her better rewards to 50,000,000 so she could join
oh perfect
it's almost a thousand dollars of rewards for her piece being featured in in in one round of betterment which was pretty awesome and yeah excited to to collab with matcha for for a few more weeks now we're also working on integrations with matcha which i won't say too much about but you'll be able to do some interesting questing and swapping in the app via the matcha's official a p api soon so that's exciting
love it love it love it love it
i don't i don't wanna i don't wanna run you too long on your show with all the different collabs that we have going on but maybe i can just list them off because there are a lot we've got coming up
let us we
are cooking with rips so i i reached out to
oh cool rips when
i started when i saw their app super clean like if you haven't checked it out really cool
the ideal content the other day yeah it's really nice well done
you're ripping packs like i i i came into this space on top shot that was one of the first things that i yeah checked out in this space back in 2021 and this kind of has that vibe it's like meme coins meets top shot really cool really slick the founders are really goated and they they come from a long career in in consumer not even consumer crypto but like just consumer apps
consumer apps
you can tell so yeah we we had a call yesterday and they're like yeah let's collab so we got something cooking there i don't wanna say too much but basically they're gonna be introducing a new type of pack and and betr is gonna be one of the first to to to help with that we've got a collab with ponder coming up that's gonna be involving some artist commissions so that's gonna be super fun coming coming towards the end of this month right after that in early october we've got a collab with dawufi that's gonna be really fun we have a collab with likes which we talked about earlier from tiktok we're gonna be helping them with their launch next week we have what else what else what else we're we're currently doing a little promo with scoreline which is a a mini app where
you can oh yeah i saw that
bet on on football or soccer matches and they just permissionlessly bought some better and put it into a a price pool for people to go amazing and and check out so if you're into that kind of thing go check out scoreline we are collaborating with co build i don't know if you know the co build app but we we jumped on that train early on because i think it's a real it's really cool what recommends building essentially it's like an inverse noise that can still be used in collaboration with with noise like you still tip normally with noise but you can also set it up so that people when they interact with your post are actually buying your favorite token and we we were the first to take a test drive of their new reward streams which actually uses his previous tech that he built for his previous project flow
okay so this is the flow's thing that they're connecting okay
so so what i did is i put better
into a contract on that
i was getting confused was a
little confused as what was going on with the flow's thing yeah because i did see the team one and he talked about that we had him on two weeks ago i think
oh nice
i missed that and he talked all about co build but and he mentioned that the team's part was coming and then the next week it launched i think or this week so that was really cool so in so with co build you're buying instead of just liking and giving a tip you're actually buying that person's designated token and at first that was you know your own creator token or what have you and now you can designate you know better and then there's sort of this way that they're bringing that all together and you can see it as a team working which is very cool yeah but the flows thing i'm trying to understand exactly what's happening there like i remember flows from nouns as a grant program but how is it working with this particular configuration if you
so basically projects can put they can deposit some of their tokens so in our case we took some dollar sign better we put it into the contract i think we put forget remember a 100,000,000 maybe a 100,000,000 betr into the contract for for one month and essentially that just like kicks off a stream that that gives daily rewards to everybody who sets betr as as their co build token cool and before they even introduced this we already were one of the top teams on there i think we had a 150 people who had already just willingly permissionlessly set betr as their token which was pretty cool and now it's grown to like 250 and i think that has resulted in over $300 in in buys on the token over the past week or so cool really cool really bullish and i know rocketman's also iterating on some other things that he wants us to try out i don't know how much i'm allowed to say but i i guess suffice to say that the same pool that you put on your team's contract can be used to incentivize other behavior in the feed potentially so that's that's all interesting we're gonna be yeah we're gonna
be that's interesting yeah rocketman if you aren't familiar with him very just crack dev like totally just and and so it was a very easy that was one of those ones that like as soon as i saw it was him i was like oh okay i'm in yeah let me try this out like it it it was a no brainer and we had him on like that same week that he put that out there for on chain summit and
i just love all these things that are triggered but the things that are just triggered by by things in the feed are so so interesting so like crypto native something that you can't do anywhere else and so that's why think those are really fun experiments to to run like right now if i if i interact with people on farcaster and i do you know i spend way too much time there but when i interact people are getting tipped via nice they're getting better from me via nice they're getting usdc from me via tipn they're getting you know whatever the tipn if i'm if i'm adding a tip there they're getting maybe reply or some other token
through through tipn and now they're also i'm also buying their token of choice via co build and it like might sound crazy to someone from outside but i love it it's just like it's a great way it's a great way
to to
kind of support people without even having to think about it in the app in the feed
and the co build one is just really cool because you're buying the token so you're also getting a benefit they're getting a benefit it's like a total win win as opposed to feeling like i'm just giving away all my money like some of that's good too but it's i didn't need a if it was just that it's like i don't need another one of those but man i think they work better
for projects
really creative yeah it's just a really good good approach to me
i think they work really well for projects and and you know hopefully projects are starting to learn and i think they are that it's it's a no brainer to put aside as much of the supply of of your token as you can when you launch we did 50% when we launched honestly almost wish we could have done more 50% was the max that you can do on clanker at the time in fact 30% was the max at the time and we did an out of pocket demo
you did the buy it's still the same i think i think it's still still the no
you can get higher now i think to
60% or something okay
but but even like dau when they launched they used their own contracts i think they they partitioned like 80% or something crazy but anyway the point is is like this is like the wild west where you can like create money out of thin air you have to be like purposeful and intentional about how you use it but you know don't don't shoot yourself in the foot by not doing that and then like these types of things are great for project you can use noise you can use betterment you can use warp slot you can use bankr to do airdrops and just like collaborate with other projects and use your token as a way to get distribution via distribution meaning like eyeballs you know but also token micro token distribution getting your your token into new wallets that will check out what you're building and that's what co build and all these other apps are are really great for i don't mind the thing the jury's out a little bit on like how individuals can use these these types of things i know they are using them
it does it works
it's i think it's pocket right so it's it's it's better if you have like a creator coin it's actually an argument in favor of like having some kind of a coin that you identify with because then then you can actually get that return or what have you back by setting your you know what is your what's your token prof werder
nounishprof yeah i have a nounishprof token and then i just switched my co build one to the extra token for the rest of the semester so
yeah a lot a lot of people had their zora tokens for example as their co build and then they realized well i'm not really a creator i'm more of just a lurker so like let me just set this to better because then i'm like part of a team it's fine it's something i believe in and i think that's why we've had such such success with with people checking that out and i i'll leave this by saying like if you are running a a project and you're not using co build yet get on there recommend you know really goaded so far is the only one that's really been leveraging the platform and like as much as i don't want the competition you know a rising tide
or you can just set you can set your token to to betr there you go
you can do that too but i'd love to see other projects because i think projects is what will actually lead the growth for him on on this so i mean
i think so too
if if like frontend's listening to this or any other project that has these tokens you know give it a try use the new streaming feature and and just see what it does for for your community
yeah and i agree with and you'd you had done a collab with tip in that was really fun and being able to sort of give out better to others and now they're doing that with reply noise is another one where you can get your token in other people's hands just by liking so there's a lot of great approaches right now to distribution and distribution is marketing right distribution rules everything around me but it's it's marketing as well when you're doing these things if you have a project because you're dropping that they're gonna look through their wallet activity and go wait what am i getting what is this token
yeah i talked to dish about this yesterday don't know if you remember seeing that but like how yeah airdrops airdrops get a really bad rap because a lot of people remember most of these like you know like fire fire spaghetti at the wall and see what sticks airdrops from 2021 where there was no curation it was mostly farmed but now like it's
it was mostly grinding in a discord to get on a white list like yeah that was what it was so it was you know everyone was grinding to get this airdrop that they were immediately gonna dump so it
was now in the year of our lord 2025 you have all these interesting tools to be able to choose ways to distribute your tokens so don't let them go to waste you know instead of doing a giant airdrop you know you can distribute these tokens to people that are more likely to be interested in your project by using these farcaster native base native protocols to help distribute them out to interesting people it's worked for us so far
yeah agree the other other tool that's out there i don't know i don't think you've played around with this but i played around with it a little bit is empire and that's another interesting one where you can do airdrops right within that app to your top holders you can do burns you can do a lot of things within that app you can yeah
your berserker is a big a big supporter of the better community so we love empower
so it's a great another just another great tool there's so many cool things that so many cool legos that people are building yep for projects to be able to tap into
and we get to just go and play lego all day like you know
what could all day long what could be better and on that note what a great way to end yeah so this has been a great chat thank you for cohosting with me today i appreciate you for being here i will see you in vermont on sunday see you soon yeah i'll see you soon keep keep
