it's it's not the rebrand

it's not okay so it's not the pants pants arch it

wasn't pants it wasn't even the acquisition of clanker it wasn't degen it wasn't frames friday nope what what brought people to farcaster

this guy this this stupid guy this stupid guy is the reason we have an all time high and it's utter insanity so i cannot believe i'm starting with this i'm starting with this today i'm starting with this cute little purple monster really quick on the lore on this because i think there's a lot of people who don't know who might be watching and going i do not get what is going on with these crazy little creatures okay we're gonna jump back warpcast was the client name farcaster was the protocol name then they merged the two so now everything is farcaster by the way it was farcaster then it was warpcast then it was farcaster when they added the wallet to what was warpcast at the time we started calling the wallet warplet and then from that dan created this little creature and said this is tried to make it the mascot of the warplet and it didn't quite go mostly linda's fault didn't quite take we adopted it for our bot warpee so he's been using this for a while we've also seen him pop up on condo and a few other things and then this time things took off because sayangel made a little mint and here we are so we're gonna dive into all of that but just in case you're wondering how this started this is how it started so we've had an all time high this week and we also have had more new farcaster pro sign ups in the last eighteen hours than in may for the limited edition launch nft nearly up to three 30,000 farcaster pro subscribers entirely on chain so that's wild absolutely wild yeah something something come for the tool stay for the network or in this case come for the warplet stay for the wallets just kinda crazy so here's what happened i started pulling messages from sayangel and then i just realized that i i couldn't there were too many so i just pulled his whole entire profile because there's a lot that happened but what what happened was on sunday he said hey i have this cute little mint this little frame this little you know thing on harmony bot i'm gonna drop it you'll be able to take your pfp and turn it into one of these cute little warplet monsters and it crashed the network because so many people were trying to mint so then he started to narrow it down like okay now it's pro only and under a certain fid and it was because things kept breaking so that was the reason that that he had to make those adjustments and then he continuously opened it up a little bit more to get it on track but people kinda just went a little crazy over these and then i think at first the craziness from the ogs was just lore it was just lore it was like let me just we just liked the thing it was very cute yes i want one kinda thing and then it became speculation because this thing started taking off and somebody like at some point he made a joke about a 10 k project pfp project not really wasn't for real but some people took it that way so started thinking oh i need to get in there and getting a little riled up about that it started trending as number one in opensea it's done an insane amount of volume it flipped punks for the day sorry phil just craziness absolute craziness and this was a little bit part of this too warplet lore on sunday night i was weighing more complex traits or just shipping it i had this queued up for the night used past cast to add an affinity to each warplet affinities would be farcaster icons like degen hat bracci sports items etcetera i chose just to ship it but one cool bit each warplet does have unique traits that's how the images get created i saved the trait as json but chose to put them on chain because they're all pretty much unique and not opensea friendly maybe i'll dump them somewhere so you'll you'll see those soon hopefully but this has been absolutely crazy sayangel did give a shout out to rish shawmakesmagic our guest leader and carter and other correct devs in the ecosystem for helping me through all my poorly thought out code that didn't scale so again he's making this cute little thing it wasn't just like a very easy you know i'm just gonna make this cute little thing and throw it out there

you can never plan to go viral no you have no idea right no idea

and then he did he did do a little postmortem don't ship things on a sunday night or do if you want traction know your api limits always cash and who cares fucking ship it but also know that sometimes things break

don't you love though how like a lot of like independent and solo devs in farcaster i don't know if sayangel how solo he is but there's so many people in the ecosystem who are willing to help yes for yeah you know and i something see that

something something something seniors something something seniors is all i kept thinking about actually as i was going through the links that i was putting together because we're gonna get more scene to see as we go go along here by the way this was really funny linda who's part of farcaster team who a lot of people know from streaming amazing was also a builder on farcaster very early farcaster has hated this little warplet monster from day one four months ago or one however long ago

because she has impeccable taste

she really does

that is why

she's she's a bit of a serious person and sometimes the unserious can you know you know so this is really funny she said if some weird ugly creature helps farcaster grow then i'm still happy and the angel said what did linda just call me so yeah it was this is nuts so we had a lot of people getting cranky about there was this very off the cuff 10 k like joke that he made and he but he said like very much right around that same time everybody is gonna end up with one of these we're just trying to get it to scale etcetera etcetera

and the 10 k just being a callback to like previous nft mania

like yeah just punks yeah essentially so see he kept getting crazy messages and i was reading through the replies and honestly it was the best way to find people to block it was fantastic never blocked so many people in my life so sayangel cap at 10 k guy who already botted the mint get my fid then cap guy who was sidelined yeah that's pretty much the way that the comments were going shut the man down because they wanted to capture on it because things did pop off where you know you were getting a 10 x or more on your on your return if you were selling the thing is most of us didn't care about selling at all if you think we care about selling for like minting for something for whatever it was point zero zero zero three seven whatever to get point o three there's a whole bunch of us with an og nft that got up to over 4 eth who are still holding the thing on zora chain like you don't know who you're dealing with here we don't care we do not care

it's an interesting mechanism though because forget the 10 it's one per fid

it's one per fid

your forecaster id and you only get one so you just you just totally

you set that up down

you can sell but yeah okay yeah

you set that up perfectly they are they are they you can transfer it but the the number is not a 123 based on mint the numbers are your fid your farcaster id so warplet 1020 gone from the original owner but always traceable back to fid 1020 so this was from jake because he decided to raffle off his or no auction it off so that was what he auctioned it off and sold his warplet but it's still 1020 so you still know it's his because it still connects back to the fid which is really cool like it's a really cool mechanism i mean sayangel's like crack dev like i know he was thanking other people but this dude he's been doing some cool things on farcaster for a long time he was the botternot guy

which was my favorite which was my favorite rest in peace

i know i love botternot it was fantastic this is from blockheim me watching you all mint your warplits because for a while like i couldn't mint for a while because he had to keep shutting it down because it kept breaking so a lot of us were waiting wallet has achieved pmf enabling crypto bros to imagine themselves as freaky little creatures this was quote casting frames have achieved pmf enabling cryptobros to imagine themselves as beautiful women when we had waifu oh what was that what was that comment i missed it

oh from yes to crypto would warblets have been near as popular had there not been downtime to create fomo and there's something something something status something something status

as a service yeah status as a service

part of the limiting to fid to low fid creates a little bit of this mhmm kind of forced status and then the downtime you know it's feature and not a bug maybe it's like everyone wants in scarcity it's like i guess you're

creating yeah you're creating scarcity people getting excited yeah for sure so then the next thing that happens is people start building stuff for the warplet this is part of that seniors thing so this was a warplet find the ugliest one and this one is really fun

let me see if it'll come up it's basically a hot or knot with the warplits oh it's struggling so we're gonna move on so hot or knot with the warplits this was really this is funny from j two it is remarkable to me that farcaster did a small rebrand and a large acquisition but the thing that catalyzed its first day of explosive growth in a while was yes these guys exactly oh we already got that one these are the nine this was bradq's list of nine top nine favorite warplets with who they are number one being jesse and i can't disagree with that more i mean agree with that more like it's hilarious it looks just like his pfp like it but in such a warplet form it's just hilarious then caro with this fabulous insanity i love it apex jamie j dot fin sayd me and symbiotec so love it it's been really fun to see these and see them connected to people and see how it interprets your pfp has been really fun so you can see mine in my background along with yours which is giving adrienne face by the way your warplet is giving adrienne face

i didn't got my warplet looks angry

oh well that's kinda angry at face

i'm not angry i'm skeptical it's skeptic face

not amused it's not amused face

i'm angry these ones are really cool too some really i love this one i don't know whose that one is but it's very cool it's fun when the one when they kinda match up with the what like the the you can see the person's pfp in it like you can really tell whose it is dan's is funny dan's and bees are funny this is codygame the wait is over $500 a prize pool up for grabs cody in warplits is live warplit exclusive free to start keep playing with cody let warplits madness begin if you have not played a codygame this is you're trying to unlock a code of emojis in this case it's a code of warplits and it's gonna be it's really fun i don't think anyone's unlocked it yet if it doesn't if it doesn't get unlocked then whoever has the best percentage gets closest will win and it's really funny because it's all the little warplets and you can see jesse's in there you can see jacobs you can see that's ted over there this is basil

i love that you recognize people's warplets

i know it's crazy well i've been staring at them for days it's insane this was from our friend greg you can animate your warplet it's pretty funny and it does make it you know it it makes it do funny like different little movements mine like drops its pizza it's really funny also there's a warplit game you can clank your own warplit from here smash or dash similar hot or not kinda thing you can feed it cookies so all kinds of fun things this is dan and b's warplits on the front there so really fun guess what you can also go to mintedmerch and take your favorite warplet out to lunch and everywhere else introducing the custom warpt we are warplet on the front your farcaster username on the sleeve your warplet number on the on the other sleeve which is also your fid background can be included or not your choice 15% off your order when you add the mini app merch moguls get 15 off site wide so go check that out if you want your warplet on a t shirt they got you covered just absolute insanity also have to shout out brettdrawsstuff who did an original pixel version of warplet back months ago i think that one is i think that one's all minted out anyway but if there if you can go check that out as well and i loved his how his warplet came out too it's really funny so it came out great and then we have phil for its worth while we're talking about it i'm pretty sure matt lee invented the term warplet so there you go they already have a $10.99 looking forward to my warpolites like warp i guess that's like royalties so that was a lot like just absolute craziness and then i'm gonna add just one more thing to this section because i had it sitting here the from ted no one literally no one me if pinetree and zora or pumpfun got me neo the home robot i would livestream it which is hilarious but what's funny is below android 16 saying do you how's our q four budget looking and we can definitely include a robot so please make this happen please make this happen for the for the utter insanity of it all so that's the warplet of it all and yet we still have a lot more going on but in case you've been wondering why you're seeing these creatures now you know

and the beauty of the the beauty of the warped like craze while you're while you're pulling up the next news story is the is the seniors it wasn't anyone person or team kind of forcing it it was a lot of different kind of people coming together building on top of legos that already existed but things explode out of scenes right so everything like okay sayangel did the initial warplet mint that turned that kinda created the craze and then everyone else just launches their own kind of spin off of what a warplet is and i think those are the days and weeks where farcaster is most generative and exciting

oh fun so fun by the way our resident dog i think said it best and they know a thing about this farcaster has the zoomies quote casting phil insane energy on the network right now but i do think that was like perfect perfect description of what's happening it's just craziness and i love it

it's a fun week

it's a fun week we've had a fun week we had all time highs on farcaster we had all time highs on pro sign ups we had all time highs on gm farcaster on on monday so

clanker's part of farcaster we're not even talking about that

i know i know i know we the the biggest news of the week and we're talking about monsters so a few other things happening that speaking clank clank speaking of clanker coinbase markets tweeted perpetual futures trading for token bot clanker will go live on october 29 today the opening of our clanker perp market will begin on or after 10am utc if liquidity conditions are met in regions where trading is supported perpetual futures are available to retail traders so i think i if i understood this correctly it's only the us but double check to see if you can trade on that and of course be careful out there purps trading usually a lot of people are doing that on leverage and you have to be careful out there so please do this is hilarious by the way this is why i had to start with the warplet because all the other news was somehow related so there was even the leaderboard results and if you're new here and you haven't been on farcaster before there's a weekly leaderboard and the payouts for number one through three are $600 and then it goes down from there but the top 3,000 people who cast on or accounts that cast on farcaster get rewarded every week so here's our rewards leaderboard results guess who is at number one sayangel and so we do the warplits edition except we have three of the top 10 with no warplet should money be withheld from july chase summer and dish actually dish and july both have them now so there you go so they do have them now so they're good moon poppy back clanking at two jeff goldberg writing dev date dinner vibes to number five bertwurst calls his warplet a traumatized gopher at number seven pugs in the potato tldr run out of the top 10 with his template meon coveted 69 goes to jesse jean so you can see them all here the top 10 as in their warplet form which i just find absolutely hilarious i do see shaw makes magic back down there and we're gonna bring him up in just a couple minutes gonna whip through the rest of this news really fast psa for the 20,000 plus new pro subscribers you have close to 0% swap fees in the wallets cheaper than any other native mobile wallet out there so if you came for the warplet stay for the wallet and check it out if you have farcaster pro a thousand swap on base is about 68ยข 92% savings so amazing we did have we mentioned the little issues we were having with database instability and everything's back it has been working well we just had a little bit of issues there but farcaster the app is down neynar powered apps were up decentralized social something also we were casting things from base and other clients so other clients were up which was good

this from rish which was really funny responding to ted who was locked in her friend's house the privy team is locked in so that was just a funny moment on farcaster yesterday also many of us at least the parents in the room were ready to go you know talk to the landlord i'll just say that i was not happy this from supertightwoody which by the way this is my new minted merch i've got the crypto shirt and the supertight hat also got a crypto hat but i just you know didn't wanna get too matchy matchy so very cool but supertightwoody farcaster wallet is now my preferred wallet i tried to use metamask and uniswap and completely scoffed at the fees awful user experience great job farcaster team we love to see it and miguelgarest is back on his back on his bullshit here i love it this is amazing turning the arch doing the arch thing do you know

m how's it going

am it's going great you look fabulous

thank you much

love love the outfit love the outfit amazing i love the background actually the background's incredible

made this background for our new project so i was i'm kinda vibing on

sure he'll be

what's the new project do you wanna say a little bit about that while we get you started

yeah we're we're we're building old for agents this is kind of a a longer term thing we're we're building one thing at a time like let's first get the token migrated and then we're working on this prediction market for agents well humans can play it too and then kinda building a little world around that so you know on chain stuff on chain data agents can consume that but kinda framing it more like a world than like oh it's a blockchain with a bunch of apps on it you know but that's kind of the idea it's like it's a bunch it's like a carnival for agents let's say that

is it so this is related to building an ecosystem that is agent powered to take on all kinds of agent tasks that are web that web two isn't exploring let me just read this a little bit to get everybody kinda situated agents that negotiate agents that predict agents that play agents that bet agents that attacked and agents that protect this is powered by some new tech like four zero two wallet abstracting paymasters and identity registry and running on a layer three app chain that lets any token on base join up like a native gas token provided they bring some liquidity to the chain and pick it swap pools perps prediction markets and on chain games token and marketplace all with front ends for agents and humans to play together providing free indexing of all chain data free rpc endpoints and direct access to all on chain services through a web two api wrapper with a four zero two payment rails this is called jiju i hope i'm saying that right it's integrated with the liza os cloud which bridges our web two user base to all services run on chain we'll show more in december that's phenomenal yeah so and you were just recently featured in forbes as well so

i'm now a forbes contributor so i'm actually writing articles for forbes

regularly this is crazy this is crazy yeah so i'm

our community hooked that up so

i love that i love that so let's see how it goes let's talk about like how did this all get started with eliza os and what you've been working on and then you know i think we kinda touched on where it's going but let's like take a a quick jump back just to kinda like set the foundation of like how did you end up here and talk about what you've been what you've been working on so far in terms of like ai a ai 16 z and all the other experiments here

yeah i mean i got my start in all this stuff i i lived in new york and i worked in like basically advertising and and doing a lot of experimental stuff like creating vr apps for companies and and various experiential things and and it was kinda like right in the early days of ar and vr and all that stuff and and i've been doing some stuff before that but it kinda led me there because there was just like a lot of hype and interest and i was like yeah i'm willing to build this this is great and and and obviously like

from there kinda became an entrepreneur and followed that into the things i think a lot of the trends that that a lot of crypto people also got into like metaverse was was big for me it was very just very into the idea of these like not just digital worlds but also thinking about like well who wouldn't have with those digital worlds and and getting really into avatars and

were you using any of the big digital worlds at the time like sandbox or decentraland or anything like that or oh yeah

i i got into all that stuff and i actually made my own i i i joined up with another digital world company called bubiverse which was pretty hot for a minute but then the treasury got hacked and you know g g and you know how it is

yeah and i i also

hey shaw when you say metaverse can you just kind of like is that lowercase m or capital m what do you how do you say like what what do you mean by metaverse

i mean i i love the idea of avatars you can see i obviously have an a a vrm avatar i got really just just very into the idea of vr chat and all of that stuff and i i really like decentraland and and and around that time was like just very into a lot of the same ideas and yeah and and i mean you know tried all of them even some of the smaller stuff like voxels it was it was big on

voxels yeah as

and and so i was part of this community called m three which is a metaverse makers mastermind mastermind and it's just a bunch of us who are into this like even now to this day and we're into it long before it was ever a hype thing it was just like you know like that kind of just nerd group and i've been working on that and then and and long story short like i i was into the idea of ai and i was really like thinking like well obviously ai is gonna be the the linchpin here that this is not like a bunch of 30 year olds aren't gonna get on a on a you know three d social app necessarily and play all the time but they might if there were like if there are reasons to come to this if there was like some kind of ai thing if there were like characters walking around the world when i arrived and it wasn't just dead and empty that would be kinda something so that kinda led me to getting into ai and realizing that like with with you know with a lot of the like you can go and train a model at home but you're not gonna get very far like like can do some cool stuff but then going and looking at like what opening i was doing with gpt and and gpt two would come out i remember this moment of like well like i you know i can't even train this on my computer and and this is like almost good enough to do something and then when g p three beta came out that was a really big moment for a lot of people like a lot of the projects a lot of the like ai meme coin tokens like one who else like the news research guys were there a lot a lot of the people were like already doing this long before and it's more like memecoins and and crypto discovered them you know like we were all like on this other part of twitter like ai twitter just yapping about stuff and then suddenly like memecoins were this thing right and and so a lot of the people that i saw like blow up with coins were like people i've known for years on discord and and yeah so i've been working on yeah right it's kinda weird how it all worked out and so i just been working on this agent stuff for a while i like for you know many years at this point and this guy i i had followed dawufun because i i really can't trade i like suck at trading and and i had asked a friend like hey you know would you trade for me and he's like no they're not gonna do that but he recommended dallas fund and i thought it was like a really good concept like okay i can just put my money in and somebody else can trade for me and so i i put some money into the first one and it was managed by this guy skelly and we started dming on x and he's like man wish dijon spartan were still here and you know he's like this this famous crypto twitter influencer who had quit basically left and i just had i just had this all ready in a box like i had just been working on this and i was like dude i have the tech we can just do this today and he's like no way that's bullshit like no man i got this so we like i have exactly the right place right time for this so we launched that and that went pretty well and then after that he introduced me at dawufi and i i who just like lived down the street from me and we started talking and i just told him yeah it was a very small world

yeah yeah we like got lunch and and i just told him like like i really want to be in a world where like why do i like crypto i like crypto because it's i like the internet capital markets thing i like that you can just like put money together and build something and like you know there there's something so interesting about all of that to me and and like so much regulation in the world that gets in the way it's crazy that like a 16 z can just go out and put money into the next openai but like you and i can't we kinda talk about this and i mean i really want like the ai a 16 z like i wanna i want i know it's not it's not like we can just do this tomorrow this is a pretty challenging thing obviously but can we build like autonomous investors that get the right information that that the right people and we started working on this and and he was the one who's like dude just call it ai 16 c it's cleaner you know it's not ai a 16 c but just squished together and and at that moment i was like that's the funniest shit i've ever heard we ran home generated the image for the daw we're like okay that's so offensive like that's the funniest thing i've ever seen like this is so ridiculous big waifus and you know like i this is no way and and i remember asking like do you think like like we're trying to raise 420 soul like that's a lot man he had to change the ui on dawufund to make it so you could even raise that much which is like $75 right and he's like yeah yeah it'll be fine that'll be fine and and then we launched it and it was just like you know in twenty minutes the presale was gone it just kept going and i was just like holy shit holy shit oh my god and and we didn't have like an organization and i didn't even have i had no money i was like working for a a nonprofit before this so very luckily this guy who had followed us from spartan from the from the first agent just gave us like 11% he he smashed wow 80 soul in and got 16% of that thing just like holy shit holy shit everyone's like who is this guy who's got you know who's this whale so he donates 11% of it to us and that like capitalizes everything for us and that's we've just been like running off of that he you know he he sold the top so he's pretty happy i think but yeah that was kinda how we got here and then the last year

would be fully like fully funded on chain i mean that's really cool yeah

if you think about that

just just like here's a crazy idea and some technology it's open source and let's go and yeah and and it's kinda yeah it's definitely the ideal i think we've set the template for

and we appreciate the the slight change in the character has been more lark prop and less porn star and we appreciate us the the you know four women the four women in crypto we appreciate it thanks

i'm sort of shocked that no one's tried to cancel us yet just given like how offensive it is shaw and they

they not you're not in the girl group chats

oh yeah yeah i know i well yeah i i apologize but i i hope everyone understands that you know we're sort of overloading culture

we we actually we have like we're we're doing a whole anime with eliza i have somebody who's working on that it's all ai but it's very cool and generally it's the brand i'm like i i really like her as a character and don't want like a big plastic like it was funny to be like hey like waifus you know like everyone's just gonna be addicted to talking to their internet girlfriends and i actually don't think that's really gonna happen so much like you know so i'm almost you but

i love the young i love the lat the latest version of her very laura croft i love that one that was a good that's a good way to go lean into that and we like the badass rather than the tits and ass just to you know

we're doing more of like a a of an anime but like serial experiments lane i don't know if you've seen that it's she's much more just like weird like the weird girl who thinks we

love that we love that

i think it'll be think it'll be it'll go over well yeah you know adrienne did

you have that comment you were like look like you're no

i i was on yeah i was i was just saying so i'm i'm i'm so glad you were protected like it was like when and didn't and did not get canceled

just i got canceled for other reasons

but yeah yeah we're gonna get we'll get to that

let's come or come around

we'll come right back

but i'll just say like yeah and you know not to hammer this home but the just to hear you say like oh we thought it was funny so we said f it we'll we'll go with it right and it's like i've heard you in long form podcasts i've now seen you on farcaster it's like i i am starting to understand who kind of the the full shaw is so it's hard to really get angry but it's just it's such a classic like there we have talked about you in our girl group chats i'll just say and not you necessarily but the the image and of documentation of women so

in some ways for sure i i don't know if you deserve to be canceled and i'm glad you were somehow protected from it but i also appreciate the evolution

yeah i i honestly would not have minded the the discourse around it if if people were like hey i have a problem with this like a lot of the things that i do are like intentionally provocative i think people have got onto that yeah and that was definitely part of that but you know like i'm i'm like married like my wife is like what the fuck you know what

she was in the group chat no yeah yeah

she's like what do i do with this guy

yeah and and for me you know i i guess like i i definitely i think we all probably share a very similar view in a lot of this but but i definitely you know in in in working with ai agents the thing is always just like well when are you making sex bots and like you know it's like not my goal and i've actually spent a lot of time like staying away from the you know like actually in ai companions most of it is people doing like weird really weird stuff not not not normal stuff even yeah so you know so you were overloading that kinda meme a bit but i but i definitely am like yeah like long term this is not really what we wanna do and it was also pretty funny when we're like talking to stanford we're like doing some stuff with them and they're like yeah can you like prop the image yeah

i was making

them funny so you actually were going to stanford like to speak and they were like no no

well we we we're doing like a small program with them and and some thought leadership papers and stuff

with the okay and they were just like can we can we yeah yeah can we ditch this please

that's fine for sure

good shaw i made my first ai bot around the same time i think it was like maybe a few months when did ai 16 z launch was it like a year ago

a yeah it's been a year now

like little over a year so i was just learning how to make an ai bot and i'm asking friends like you know how do i do it and all i'd heard was oh ai 16 z is a framework was it or eliza i don't know if was called eliza yeah here's a framework you can use and i'm a i was like a i'll say a newbie developer my background's in software engineering but i hadn't done hands on stuff in a really long time and people are pointing me and i will say like i because i'm not in i wasn't already in the ecosystem i wasn't already aware of what it was and i saw the image and i was like no thanks so that is like the impact of like that's what branding does like if you don't like i had not done the long form podcast i had not done it like i was just like nah not for me so i ended up not but alright let's move on wait wait wait

yeah but honestly like yeah we get so let's talk about some stuff happened over on twitter you get you get you lose your account end up over on farcaster can you talk a little bit about what happened there on twitter and like what what went down and then you're sort of moved over to farcaster and like what your feelings have been since you did that and we're so glad by the way

oh yeah so all this went down you know there were like 50,000 people launched agents in january alone it was a lot it was like okay this is probably a problem the x reached out to me and and i was very like very open with them and like i would i would love to address the problem because i don't think we're creating a problem i think this is a problem that's like a kind of an inevitability of the whole internet i already i would say a lot of like the things that i post and and like the edgy should i say is more along those lines around like that internet and you know like the future of ai internet and all that stuff and they reached out and i went to their headquarters and i hung out with them a couple of times and i really was like it was very framed like hey like you should help you know like kinda like maybe this is an adviser thing or something and you know i

kinda you're like thinking like hey i'm gonna go help with grok like

i i i was down for whatever like yeah that's that would be sick you know i was thinking like realistically like you know they're probably figuring trying to figure out how to get a handle around like this agent thing i'd love to have a a a say in that and also like be an advocate for a a version of that that isn't just like ban everybody but also isn't like you don't want a world of bots either you know so so you know that that conversation though kind of devolved to like it was clear that they were having conversations with like all of the web three teams and we're basically trying to figure out well like how do we extract money from crypto and they did a large sweep and sweep up a lot of teams that they perceived to be you know harming them like gmgn and pump fun and yeah all these people and they just deleted all their accounts and then accused them of things and then basically like i'm not exactly sure how it's legal but you can threaten someone legally unless they pay you money so that's cool so they did that they said we're gonna delete all of your accounts for hosting a lot of agents and say do a lot of stuff that you're not actually doing but we're gonna say you're gonna do and not look into very much and then you should give us you know but if you wanna buy our enterprise license you can get out of it and so that's only you know 500,000 a year

yeah that's nothing no problem

so we said well we have literally no use for that we make open source code i don't host or sell anything i don't have a product that people can come to why the fuck would i buy a $500,000 a year enterprise license so then they just like deleted our accounts and then we went through the normal process of explaining to them that like everything they were try they're saying you know we're your hosting agents you're violating apis and it's like this is a bunch of shit whatever got to this point where they're just like give us a million dollars or and we'll give you your accounts back i don't know how that's legal but we're gonna do it we're just gonna give them a million dollars i have no use for anything that that they service i have no use for their enterprise license but ultimately they are they own crypto the entirety of decentralized crypto is at the back and heel of elon musk and axe we all know it everyone knows it we can't do anything about it so we're gonna give them a million dollars so yes i will post my farcaster referral code

yeah please do

i'm just kidding i'm just kidding

actually hit the qr that card we do have got the qr handy go ahead adrienne yeah

we go there you go nailed it nailed it there you

go is that top right or top left i never know if it's a different background

it's good it's good that's so funny

there you go come join us in the free land

so yeah you then like that kinda drove you you already had a farcaster account but that drove you to actually start interacting and like building over there

yeah i mean mean the the reality

having you on there it really has it's been you're hilarious like i i do a way of gigs

yeah you know i like yapin i i like farcaster i really like the culture i like everything about it but ultimately like i think the way that it's gonna win is when we have no place else to go because x does not see us as people they want on their platform like they straight up have they like i have internal emails you know because now i get to see a bunch of shit where they're like we're part of a web three sweep they think that we are extracting from their platform and not giving anything back even though like we were paying them a thousand dollars a month just for our yellow check and 200 for the developer account plus you know like what eight blue checks and all this stuff and we're like fully legal and compliant but because you know i linked to some open source code on github they're like oh yeah i can steal your account now and that's the world we're in so yeah like you know i don't think crypto can be real or taken seriously until it's off of x frankly because it's like you can't call any of this decentralized this this is the opposite of decent this is the most centralized thing i've ever seen actually you know everyone's on like one app one wallet one website it's crazy

yeah and it's yeah sucky reason why but we're glad you're here shaw from cal.com yeah it's it's it's something we've struggled with from the beginning because we started the show and started just on decentralized and on chain platforms so we started on on lonely and zora and then realized not too long later that we had to be on the web two stuff as well and it's been frustrating but we do get most of our viewers over on twitter and x so at least they're live viewers it's crazy so i mean yeah

yeah i mean my my like ultimately why why do i need that account it's because distribution we're basically dead unless we have yeah distribution is everything there's just like saying that first time founders care yeah yep right exactly founders care about you know product and second time founders care about distribution and and i think that that's very clear that that's that's the game we're in and especially around meme coins and all that i mean it's just been the most damaging thing so it's like well if we pay the even though it makes no sense and it should probably be illegal and i have no use for the apis i will just give them money because it makes our backs go up and that's just you know it's the best thing for everyone

it ends up being like a cost to doing business yeah cost to doing business

there's a lot of middleman extractors in crypto like let me tell you yeah you know all the exchanges who are going on about whatever like yeah i've seen their bills i know what they charge yeah you know yeah i guess we'll pay that too because there's no other choice it's the most centralized industry in the world yeah

you know and we've i mean even if you're not even if you're not at the level of paying like for an enterprise type of you know account a lot of us are paying for pro for the same reasons

because distribution because we need that you know visibility so it's funny to hear them say that they don't need us because i don't i don't have they have they added it all up

i don't think so

i don't think they've done the math

we we minted a lot of developers we created a lot of business for them and they just don't get it or see it and they're not they're not you know they're they're they're not our friends let's just say that

for sure okay what have we not touched on that we should be asking you about like i'm excited to see your agent world i mean i think that looks incredible but what else to yeah what have we missed that

yeah so the agent okay so two things the agent world is like a a long term vision here the first part of that that we're building is well we're collaborating with ethereum foundation on they have a a spec called erc eight zero zero four and this is an identity registry and so the i they're they're kinda pushing this because you know agent hype is like trustless agent registry but the way that i see this is this is actually a way to take like the services like mcp is very hot x four zero two is very hot so you have these ways to like now pay for oh generate me an image or get me some intel on this stock or whatever and then pay for it but we don't have it so you're like okay so i'm about to pay this person for this thing like is it good like are they just a bunch of scammers who are gonna take my money right and so the identity retreat is kind of like a yelp system like okay i i used this service it was sick i'm gonna give them good stars or no that was definitely a scam so i'm gonna mark them as a scammer and and so we've been building on this like i i think it's actually a a key primitive because like one of the big problems we have in crypto is just like a total lack of the ability to moderate or or protect people at all because you know i can spin up in wallets instantly i can get around these kinds of things i can move liquidity instantly and and so in our world we wanna have some like moderation and protection for that and that kinda builds on this idea of of identity but that's a little bit later what we're focusing right now is like just getting the identity and getting like that what's that first service or thing that agents if they connect to this registry could find so like it's one half of it is yelp like okay well now i can tell you how good this is the other half is kinda google like well what what can my agent do like i'm my you know i'm i'm an agent i'm like i i wanna do stuff and i and you're like hey can you go and like find me a decentralized service that lets me like do these swaps but it's just really simple case right i'm like oh god great sure or or let's say perks right you want like go go trade some perks okay well i need like a an interface to do that i need a place to connect i need to know that i'm not gonna deposit my money and they're just gonna be like psych you know so so i half of the registry is like well i can go search like what what's out what's out there what's on this registry oh there is this cool pursing oh there's this cool prediction market game oh sure i'll go like play that and and i can see like who else is playing it and who else has left feedback and so it lets us kinda create like a like apps in the network which have like kind of the properties you right now might go to the app store for like this is the number one ranked app or whatever that kind of thing right so we're we're taking those that erc eight zero four primitive which is really around discovery and identity and then that feedback system for reputation those are kind of the three pillars and we're building a game that that touches on all of those as kind of the the our starting point and then moving into this whole island of agents thing with that like leaning pretty hard on those pillars but the first thing we're building just the the like we're we're going to argentina and we're gonna show this in a couple of weeks we've been working on

is yeah this is the prediction market game and so i got banned from x so what i did was i created an ai version of x with parody versions of all of the major characters like all the politicians and all the billionaires we got like scam alt men and mark entry scum and

we have aioc who's the ai version of aoc because you know or elon musk who's since he left for mars he left his last skin body here on earth to oh my god that's funny or whatever you know like just insane lore and we're just like yeah let's just synthesize the most like it's not even that much more insane than reality but it's a little bit more insane and you can kinda you can bet on those things and we have so we have we just added this so now we're tracking

my call prediction market within the like world the digital world

yeah it is of things that can happen in the metaverse prediction market

hilarious it's fully synthetic i mean and there's there's a lot of i was kinda thinking about this like i think that games are prediction oracles like most on chain games could just be oracles for prediction markets and then you don't have to pay polymarket you don't i mean sorry not polymarket is fine you don't have to pay chainlink like like if you wanna do perks you have like you have to go get your data from somewhere so you have to pay chainlink or on the polymarket case you have to set up with uma you have to like do a whole like validate our humans yeah that's true that's not true like kinda like a wikipedia editor sort of deal right you have to have humans in the background which is great but it also prevents the markets from scaling to to to like infinite size basically so we're like thinking well you can basically bet on chain away from the game the game is just like a game it's just doing what it does producing outcomes but then the betting and all that can happen on chain but off game like kinda separate and you know out just happening in the world and the game is just like i'm just gonna post my results as a prediction oracle like you can do whatever you want with this it's composable lego block yeah so that's that's we're just focusing right now on that piece just like let's get the prediction market game to be fun but it's already kinda fun to like watch all these parody people like argue with each other and you know and yeah like if you if you're a good reply guy you get invited into group chats where you get like secret alpha and stuff i'm i really really like the game it's like it's like really mirroring the the current like meme coin alpha you know sort of loop i guess

it sounds fun so are you gonna be presenting this at at devconnect is that i think the plan

marco's gonna present it

as something that we're cooking on marco's the one of the authors of erc eight zero four

so but but we'll be there i don't know if you guys are going but

adrienne will be there and also we do have a ticket that we're giving away today to def connect so we're not no airfare no hotel just the ticket guys okay so if you're on farcaster you're we're gonna we adrienne posted a little raffle cast you have to go in there to register and you're gonna need the passphrase world computer two words so we'll put it in our chat and yeah you can win a a ticket to devconnect and go see go see shaw yeah we'll be there

let's hang out yeah and there's

gonna be a large oh we both typed it at the same time that's funny there's gonna be a very large ethereum world's fair farcaster's gonna have a space there adrienne will be there as well as you know linda horsefacts i think a few people from the farcaster team and the farcaster community so definitely go check that out i think it's gonna be an amazing event i mean everyone is is going i think there's some incredible presentations that i've heard been hearing about so it's gonna be pretty amazing so go check that out

a lot of our dev team is going a lot of a lot of people that i i would wanna hang out with in the community are going and also i i i did a promise that i would work the farcaster booth we'll see if that pans out oh that would be fun

go go volunteering too shaw let's coordinate let's get there together

that'd awesome that'd super fun

time that you gotta time that adrienne because it'll be way more fun

it's so much more fun

the same time i wanna see that please stream amazing so shaw what else if we missed anything else that you wanted to mention or do you have

any questions wait i believe and i think i know the answer but your world is coming in a mini app

yeah that's definitely the goal yay we have a we have a couple of mini app the other thing we're doing is we have like an agent otc desk so okay so we're doing a migration like this is the thing i got upon like you know this is the reason we're really all here i guess or the reason they're letting me go on podcast right now is we we we you know we have the ai 16 z token and we are turning it into the elizaos token you know ai 16 z was very gracious and they we're like yeah you guys are cool you gotta change the name it's getting confusing you know so it's fine they're they're cool about it so we're we're changing it to elizaos and just unifying everything and and there's a few things that are coming with that one is we're bringing our token it'll be on solana but it'll also be on bsc base and mainnet yeah so you know we're base builders now

mainnet too amazing yeah

yeah i mean you know people still trade there occasionally i mean they they hold you know

metallic will be ecstatic about it so it's great

yeah yeah totally he i've got like a nice message from him like well welcome to ethereum i was like oh

yeah what was that

yeah i i i just like i like ebm i i like ethereum i like the you know i don't know i like the i like the vibe so with that we're doing an otc where we are like selling some of our tokens at a discount but you have to negotiate the discount and lockup terms with the agent so it's like an agent otc desk

that wanna get like 20% discount but it's like a one month lockup like that's that's kinda doable you can totally negotiate that kind of thing so it's kinda like a fun way to like you know show off the agent tech and and i'm trying to find like defi use cases that aren't just trading agent because they think that that's like not what people think it is it's like it's just a lot harder than people think it is like it's just like sci fi as opposed to defi but there's a lot of great defi use cases and i think one of them is that agents are pretty good at negotiation i thought that was kinda fun

that's very cool i didn't i wouldn't have thought about that that's a really good use case

yeah that's fun and that's gonna be a farcaster mini app on its own oh cool i i don't think i don't know if it'll be ready for like like the actual thing is ready and i've even now got where like you can list your own tokens which is kinda cool so anyone can otc to anyone else but that's still a work in progress so hopefully that'll make it to mini app this month but it by december we

should definitely back that up for a second so if we have like our own creator coin or whatever kind of coin project coin we could list like hey we've got a pool of let's just say a million we're willing to negotiate and let the agent run and just let the

set your terms like what's your minimum and maximum lockup duration and timing and and you can kind of accept that like some people are gonna hack the system they're gonna get the best possible deal so you have rails you have like a maximum best deal kind of thing but but still like i would be willing to give people the best deal if they're gonna sit there for two hours and engage with my experience like that sounds great like a great you know great exchange so and it keeps you know tokens off market and locked up and even in meme coins like hey one month lockup is you know that's years and yeah an old an old time the before time

the before times yeah for sure

yeah so so that's kinda weird

that's very cool i i

cool will the will there be other mini apps that you you mentioned that mini app is there yeah like the world itself gonna be mini app or is that

too complex this world is like a like a make believe like all text based thing for the prediction market game

but the other game that we're working on is with with some farcaster notables is hyperscape and so chase is i i basically just kinda started because i was working on this with a friend who's his name is lucid he's on farcaster now too and we're just like hey can we make ai a runescape and like just ai everything like ai items ai mobs npcs ai town like the whole thing is ai the quests are ai like let's just go so far with this and and if you've seen like how ai video is you know like it's pretty good now it's the same thing happened for three d it's like holy shit these are like photo real three d i i you know i used to hire artists and i would say that it's better than most of the artists i've hired right it's kinda nuts so so yeah so we're building basically ai runescape it's called hyperscape it's going surprisingly well and fast and we've got a couple of devs like like dex who's also like streaming on retake and pump and like building this on stream and kind of engaging i told him you know to engage the mini apps there and doing that and yeah and then chase is kind of the i don't know the the like posting about it doing a lot of design and concept art and stuff and we got a couple other devs and yeah so that that's pop it it's like a full mmo game i mean

that's amazing

it's going shockingly fast only because we all we know like man five coding has really changed the game you know especially in this stuff where i'm just like yeah give me like a procedural world with grass on it it's like yeah no problem you know that that used to be like a month like i used to have to like touch it it would take me like a month so yeah so so that's that's the other thing and that's that's definitely like mini app focused you know we and and kind of like a we we we have like a mobile form factor generally i i like that like mini apps kinda fit the mobile form factor and you know like it it it's not like a lot of extra work to make something like that a mini app basically

and it's a really good way to get it into app form before you try to do a larger like ios app or something like that too it gives you a lot of opportunity to kinda hack at it and make sure things are working right and all that so yeah but

that's a good point

i would say you're already you're already building for mobile like if you're already constrained by size and you're building for mobile to then convert to a mini app and then you get all this other stuff with it like farcaster contacts social contacts build in notifications distribution it's like why not

yeah yeah these days like i'm really a champion of there's different ways to build mobile apps you can build them with like native code like ios specific or you can do something like react native or whatever but i i'm really a champion of we used a thing called capacitor and we also use tori and they're both basically what they do is they run your website on the app more or less and it works surprisingly well and it means that we can just build once so i can just build a mini app and i can ship the exact same thing to the ios app store

oh that's cool

that's like yeah distribution is everything and i i like a lot of my team has been

like hammering with hold on does that mean it's like a container so it's you ship to ios as like a container but then you've got your it holds the site so you can update it

as yeah yeah so what's actually happening in there is that it's running the like a web view and it's running the whole application inside web view but it looks just like a native app it looks i mean it is and a lot of the apps we use are doing this like a ton of them even with things like discord it's it's actually like chrome and you know most of them are are running chromium and stuff it's kinda a similar idea but but this it kinda ties back to this idea of distribution is everything and and to me like you know farcaster might not be the the biggest distribution market in town but i grew up with macos and watching like companies like bungie survive on like a very small market share but they were like the big fish you know they were like the game company for macs and now they're one of the biggest game companies in the world and i think that that generally is like that holds true that for for developers like it might be really hard to hit a total like know to make a shitload of money just on farcaster users but you can kinda like guarantee a more dedicated audience you know to some degree you know more people are gonna try your mini app basically yeah that's one thing mini apps come with working wallet and actually my favorite thing like the main feature is just that when you click on the app you're logged in like that is such a stupidly important feature of of a thing you know

so it's a good point yeah i haven't thought about that like that's a great point yeah it's one less one less opportunity to churn

most user drop off i think happens at the login page

so yeah that's exactly

the same thing

do that and the other thing is yeah if you're if you're building something you've got this group of you know very tech savvy early adopters who love to try new things and are willing to hack on your on your mini app and give you like constructive feedback so it's a whole different environment in that in that respect so

it gives me like late like late nineties apple vibes like there was like there was like magazines there were meetups people were like like really into macs you know like and now no one is because they're the evil empire but like but but that that only they only got there because they have this like cult following and i think you should not just you know there's like you have like 100 true fans or or you know just building a cult following i think it's very important

yeah we do have a question we do have a question from yes yes to crypto i wanna do this ai 16 z otc where do i go

we're gonna have the otc desk launching with the migration on november 6 so you can go migrate your token from ai 16 z to the new alize os you just like put your tokens in you get your tokens out and then you can go and if you like you can buy otc as well those are kind of the the actions yeah

and we'll definitely make sure we talk about it on here so you'll know you'll know yes crypto when it's when it's available i promise yeah adrienne do you wanna hit them with some quick lightning questions before we before we wrap

yes shaw you up for it

you have time okay we do all our a little over yeah a lot of our favorite guests like to hit with lightning round questions

sorry i guess i gotta run i gotta

run i'm just kidding

just kidding

alright so on farcaster we talk a lot about the url to irl pipeline especially because like in the early days network was small people were meeting first on farcaster and becoming friends in real life so when and how did you make your first internet friend so it's someone you met first online and then later became friends with

wow irl wow actually i think that the per first person i met online became my first girlfriend because we talked online like before that online had been about like middle school high school like i was talking to people i knew at school or you know and i was also like deep into a world that like i was a hardcore nerd when i was a kid so i was like hardcore into news groups i don't even know if people know what that is you know and then that led me to like aim chat rooms and stuff yeah so i was like into all that and and i definitely had that kind of exposure but i never met any of those people irl i almost had like a shyness about it but but the opposite was like i remember i i got introduced to a friend on aim through another friend was like oh you should talk to my friend and then she lived down the street from me and we ended up like dating and stuff yeah so like sick you know 15 or 16 or whatever so

oh that's cute

yeah that's kinda how that happens yeah but generally another big one is like i i'm i know that you asked the first one but another interesting i mean this has been like a really important thing for me in my life is that the that the internet has been such a connector for me i mean even the hyperscape thing was just like you know i met this dude through my last project we started working together i met chase on farcaster you know it's just like we're just messing around you know i actually so i met my wife on craigslist

misconnections misconnections

just i'll just leave it for you actually you know i hired her as my assistant off of craigslist and then my company went under and eventually i ran out of money and and she quit and we were just like in the same friend circle after that i just just totally like i had moved to san francisco i hired her she's like kinda show like was like hey go you should go to this internet archive thing met some people through that but generally like just like we happened to be in the same social circle after that and then at some point just like went on a date and then you know got married and all that so yeah you know i don't know that's that's what i'm about

to that's the best where where i met my wife story craigslist i i don't think i've ever heard that one before that's that's unique

yeah unfortunately they they got rid of personal so you can only date through the that's so funny so funny

moving on morning person or night owl

oh i am such a night owl it hurts

yeah we're crushing it today

feel like i gotta guess it yeah thank you for waking up early for us beach or mount beach or mountain

oh i like both but i really love i love the beach not the water so much just the beach part

what is the next country you wanna visit

argentina that's exciting have you ever been i i've been to buenos aires for a day because i went to uruguay which is like just across the the water so i took a boat there and went to our i mean it was buenos aires is sick but i didn't get to really see the country like that so i'm pretty excited for that

yeah if you were to write a book what would it be about

all of this started because i was writing a sci fi book about an ai agent that a bunch of kids create and get into trouble with but i i halfway through just was like am i really gonna be a fucking writer like that's such a grind i i was a musician in my teenage early twenties as well and i i got pretty far with it but it was like really like touring was a grind and i was like this is an even worse grind because you don't have friends to grind with you and i don't know anybody in litter literature the literary world so i was just like kinda gave up on that and got into to tech instead but you started writing writing yeah and i was writing a side by book oh yeah totally i i'm never gonna share that though but i mean it was like it was very much like you know kinda dreaming about like what the eliza thing was and blah blah blah i i you know it was it was kind of a little bit of of hyperstition you know like creating i i had set this path a long time ago and start you know like started moving forward with it yeah so you know if i was gonna write a book today i think i probably wouldn't write sci fi because i think it's we're almost over inundated with it now it's kinda boring like why i wouldn't wanna read about agents it's like my fucking day job but i don't know i i think i'm very interested in i'm very interested in history i i think i'd love to i'd probably write something about history i you know i i'm not exactly sure but i i'm very interested in like like the whole other side of me which is interested in like religion and the history of religion and history and like why do people believe the things they believe and you know so i'd probably write something in that direction if that makes sense

yeah when you're ready to do your book though check out alexandria which is on chain on chain books

so on chain books

yeah alexandria is like i'm not alexandria a lot writing yeah

when you're ready you're gonna write cool you're gonna publish that's it

yeah little pause gpt kicked me out a book

or two suggestion give the draft to eliza os and have her complete

yeah you know for real actually i had this idea the other time i was talking with a friend we're like why don't we just finish all of the stories we never finish with ai yeah there you go yeah yeah one day for sure i don't love g b t five's writing style maybe claude could do it but we'll we'll get back to it claude

six that's funny

finishing with

the few more questions

football or soccer

i really don't care about either i just like don't i i i know that people have like a lot of emotional feelings around like people running around and kicking a ball i just think it's like the most boring game i just don't care it's
