big party night
big party night careful out there
we didn't have a we didn't have a name for it was always a big party night and now i'm old and i am an adult with kids and family and now i have
to cook and now it's a big cooking night for you
oh now
and i am an adult with no family nearby so i don't have to cook so hi it's just my mom and my son and we're gonna go to a restaurant tomorrow and i couldn't be happier
yeah you'll enjoy it
i will i kinda miss i mean i miss it a little bit like of the big family dinners but i also don't miss the prep and the cook and the cleanup and all that stuff i can live without that
what's funny is i don't even like thanksgiving food it's not
oh that's funny
i find it really bland too starchy like not love it not enough greens i don't not enough so i don't even like it and my we do it with family that really likes traditional like every you know
it's like you have to
have the same every year it has to be the same exact things but because i'm hosting i can start throwing in like my own things absolutely we we have to do a traditional but then i have to do all this other stuff too that's great somehow i'm in
the mood and for whatever it is maybe it's like all the nonsense happening outside of the you know
the things i can control so i'm like yeah i'm pouring myself into my kitchen
this week you can control the yeah what goes on the table yeah we always had very traditional and my plate always only had beige food and that was like the joke with my cousins like just the beige food over here everything else got passed right by me like oh carrots squash get rid of this get rid of that you know went right past me so that and then we always and it's an irish family mostly and one side of the family the other side's lebanese but the irish family we'd know when dinner was ready because you'd smell the rolls burning like so once the rolls were burnt it's time to
eat yeah yeah
great cooks in the family great cooks in the family
by the way
i'll never be an adult it's a superpower good move but professor and i do a livestream show about farcaster and hangout i'm pretty sure we are not adults adults either we are not serious people alright i'm getting rid of the border say goodbye and happy thanksgiving to the border it was
too much
i guess it's kinda too much we put it on there for a little bit it did have these little options too but there was like that's too little there's a little turkey badges and stuff they're cute all right anyway moving on by the way and i meant to i almost grabbed this and i forgot to grab the macy's parade try emerge we showed it the other day but you all should go make one because they're really cool i really love that one that was great all right let's dive in you know wholesome fun on forecaster try emerge sometimes it's fun first thing i wanna start with is just another shout out to
the
haberdashery starting next week wednesdays we will have a haberdashery spotlight so they will be sponsoring us for two months and we are excited we had a chat with perp we're excited to add some education into this because part of what the haberdashery is doing is some rewards for liquidity pools and things like that so we want to add some education around like what are liquidity pools how do you contribute to one what is this whole thing so diving into a little bit more of defi talking about uniswap before hooks because that's been a big topic and that's going to be part of what the haberdashery funded with this particular prop as well as funding us so very excited and this was from bakhtoni last week the haberdashery put da vinci vote to work for one of their dao proposals the vote ran smoothly anonymous protected against coercion and fully gasless for this election all voting logic ran through our smart contracts on base guaranteeing verifiable integrity and results on chain results on chain settlement huge credit to the haberdashery for supporting our tech and pioneering its use and special thanks to perp so this is one of the projects that the haberdashery has funded over the years so go check them out if you're looking for a voting solution for your dao or other organization all righty moving on i don't know if we talked about this i don't think we did so i grabbed it because i think we forgot this one so this was from v a couple days ago by usdc with debit card i think i know why i skipped it because i'm like who has cash that they like that's why our audience really doesn't need this and i think that's why i skipped it but i'm like you know if you're out there and you're a army and you suddenly feel that you know you want to fund your farcaster wallet because you will have still have no fees right now and some of the lowest fees so there you go you can now buy up to 2,500 of usdc every week with your debit card go to wallet deposit buy crypto to get started issue to daniel for the great work on this we'll get
a thanks daniel thanks
daniel
be warned everyone always does on ramps before they do off ramps
it's true i mean they gotta do
on ramp yeah
gotta do them
so so you can put money on chain it's not as easier to it's not as easy to take it off
no well you just have to yes you have to find an off ramp
i'm just saying farcaster builds an on ramp farcaster builds an on ramp which is great but yeah it doesn't mean
they have an off ramp there's no off ramp
and i know this because i've because i've gotten my teenagers to use farcaster and they really liked playing and
i was and especially when there were rewards for posting
and my kids are showing me like oh my goodness like i'm getting usdc this is real money okay how do i use it
you bought it you bought it from them didn't you
of course i did they of course i did
i've done the same thing with my kid when he's on their bank yeah back way back when he did a couple of prop houses and things like that and i would be i just you know here sell me the eth i'll i'll just give it to you
yeah
yeah to make it easy so and it's the same thing with my students that's really funny because at the end of the semester i one of the assignments was what are you gonna do with the crypto you have now and most of them just left it where it was and they'll probably forget all about it because they don't have a whole bunch but i did say you know if you want to off ramp that's all on you you gotta figure it because that's all whole more involved situation and i don't make them set up a coinbase account like an exchange account because that's the because i'm sending them some ethereum to use during the class so they don't need to but this is a this is a cool feature it'll come in handy for somebody so there you go all right moving on and it did so the monad air monad launch was monday and if you had an airdrop from them it was in your wallet on monday it was sent out so if you're if you already did your claim on the monad.xyz site where you opened up the boxes and did that whole little thing it was just sent to you so if you don't see it in your wallet your wallet will not recognize it sometimes you have to import those tokens like to metamask but if you go connect it to something like macha you'll see it in there as well so this from farcaster in addition to the 2,000 farcaster users who received the official monad airdrop 1,000 top traders on farcaster will also receive mon tokens so there was another drop that was sent out on farcaster and the only place i saw it what to claim was in my notifications so if you missed it scroll back through your notifications and if you're like me this is gonna take a while it took me a while to find it but it was on monday and if you scroll back you'll see the the claim process so you may have you know a few more 100 sitting there and honestly it's really smart because then people started launching things on clanker so you had some mon to be able to do that so that was cool this from honeymoney.eth being an active trader on farcaster pays out i wasn't eligible for the initial drop but got something even better thank you to both farcaster and monad teams $750 airdrop by using the smoothest wallet with the lowest fees out there we take it all day long so very exciting there you go mine wasn't that high but good for you
it was
a lot less than that this from dish monad deploys are now live through clanker world's deploy forum and i think now they are also live via tagging clanker so that i think launched later on key differences initial starting market cap will be 100 k mon only static fees are enabled so they did create dynamic fees recently but for this you can only do the static fees one full range lp position is placed bot deployments will be out later today pre clients and api deploys will be a fast follow so i think some of that is already out there so go check that out if you're interested and i did do a little experiment i know some other people did as well best one i saw was auxins
in my opinion mo or more is a fundamental mimetic germ of monads so i clank to clinker called more if there's ever a monad season then i can imagine people saying more more like higher another eight goes fast and then eventually some with higher itself i can't babysit it but i think it's an interesting idea anyway it's out in the wild now more i did think that was smart that was a very smart one i wanted to just figure out how it worked so i clanked this just a little homage to billy idol with a moany moany
what
a moany moany yeah that's not in my head yeah there you go that was that was the idea and it was actually the number one song this past week i think it's already passed over but the past week when i launched this it was the number one song in the usa in 1987 this particular week so there you go
perfect
how do you know that because you googled mooney mooney because i checked so i was like you knew it came out like when exactly did it come out and then i was like oh it actually came out this past week oh here oh 1987 so there you go but yeah so there you go just a couple experiments nfa dyor probably shouldn't buy either of these but just kind of sharing there's a bunch of experiments going on from people just testing out the monad clanking it is different there's different liquidity there's different rewards like it definitely works a little different it was hard to figure out because i did it pretty early right after his announcement just to kind of play around and it was hard to figure out the dev buy because it's still listing it in eth even though it's using mon and it was a little tricky to figure out like how much to do and stuff like that so anyway go check that out okay i'm just trying to decide where i want to go next i don't think i want to do that yet let me get a couple other things
done before i jump into this oh it's all this never mind the rest of it is all this what are you avoiding oh wait a minute there's one more thing i see you looking at these links and
not touching them oh no
i'm waiting to say this we do have we do have some results from the new leaderboard from quotient there are no rewards yet they are gonna be doing some random rewards coming up but there was nothing for this week this was pride not prize and this is from burt wurst maybe the real farcast rewards was getting more engagement than dwr in his own protocol along the way so it was fun to watch that back and forth happening and i was enjoying that like little rivalry fun moment i think i ended up at like number eight or something like that which i also enjoyed so thank you highest urban highest urban
or something
highest urban on a leaderboard oh how the tide has turned i love it i love this leaderboard
alright let's dive into the big thing and i still have other things we're gonna dive into this
this is
why people are here yeah i can't wait to talk about that here we go we're talking about that okay
what even is that how would you
we're gonna discuss what this is
i was gonna cast about it but i was like i don't even know what to call it what is it
here's what happened so let's start
with facts
dan dwr casted this ca and this long zero x number so when you cas ca people assume contract address so right below this hold on was when did he say somebody had asked pretty early on here it is so when i had looked around ten minutes ish maybe a little less after this cast i saw k mac say were you hacked where are you hacked seeking first to understand and he said nope so and then somebody said to be fair this is what a hacked person would say and i thought that was funny so and then he said when dex screener never so it was all this like back and forth that made it sound like it was an actual token but he was not hacked so it was like okay this is safe to buy because he launched this and this was an eoa it was not a contract address it did not link to anything once when he put that in there however a very clever person launched a clinker in the ten minutes about ten maybe a little less than ten minutes after dan casted this they took that address and turned it into the title the name of a clinker so that when you click on it it leads to that clinker so dan had casted about thirty minutes later or twenty something minutes later i was testing something there's no token here it's a random ethereum address i don't have the private key the problem was in between this happened where somebody had actually made it into a token so when you clicked on dan's original cast especially if you didn't see that one or if it was before he casted that you thought this was legit and it would bring you to this token so this is not financial advice do not buy this token now it's a bad idea so this is what happened and you can see where i bought and where i sold that's what these little things are
thank you
thank you look yeah so thank you for that so yeah so that's what happened and then here's what happened next so needless to say people got a little cranky about this but also funny so let's start with the funny so people started casting ca and various things this was from six casting the map with california this was garrett canada there was a couple canadas because yours is different there was a couple canadas that were that were casted this was my personal favorite from matthew fox took me a second appreciated that that is christina aguilera if you're not familiar
i did not know who that was
it's christina aguilera from like this is straight out of the nineties like the american music awards or something or like the mtv awards or something like that i liked this from horse facts address coins with the drawn draper meme but this one was probably the most accurate it's giving this is from jrf post ca why would you buy this okay because here's what happened
dean got a little cranky about people pushing back on the fact that this happened and you know i think there was a way to frame this as like hey i i when i casted it it would have been very simple to just say hey when i casted this it was only a wallet i it didn't occur to me someone was going to turn it into a token sorry about that i should have been more clear because as soon as he started saying i was testing something everyone was like oh okay well you know stop buying this thing also the other the person who did create the token had an opportunity to turn this around a bit as well and probably would have done better if he had and just say hey i saw what dan did and i did this so it's me it's not dan like instead of trying to pass it off like it was dan's token so there was a couple
instead of scamming people tell people you're scamming them then then there is
honestly then everyone would have been written
on the joke that was smart
like that was actually you know because in my mind i'm like you know what that was pretty savvy that was pretty savvy so you could have owned that savviness and run with it and made it funny and it could have been like a runner it really could have instead what happened was some people lost money i don't think anyone lost any big money but i wasn't paying attention to what the buys were like me i always do like i'm doing like a $20 thing and like i lost $10 and i'm not gonna think anything of it because i do know it's my agency and i choose and chances are chances are that was gonna happen whether he did it on purpose or not like it was gonna i was gonna lose money on that so i didn't think much of it but dan's response has set some people off a little bit because it's coming off as a little defensive and a little like a little tone deaf like not reading the room
i think people want him to take accountability for the influence he has on the network like he's like oh look at you you're in a leadership position so when you speak your words are different obviously you know what happens in the crypto space so you know if if you post if you post an address everybody apes in and you should know that and therefore it's your fault like take take accountability for our actions and then he pushes back and says like no adults have agency like no one's forcing you to buy anything
which is very true
yeah everybody yeah
which is true but it's true but like if you pass something if you post something that's ca the expectation is people will buy that if they think it's something that you're doing like this was a very foreseeable outcome that this would happen so i feel like there was multiple times to jump in with better comms like you know what i mean either right from the beginning right after you casted it hey i'm casting something even if you put it in the replies then it feels more on me like then it feels more like this is my i'm responsible yeah okay i get what you're doing
should we get merkel's head of corporate comms on our show to talk about what their strategy is for communicate for communicating
this is the problem
like it's a team of problem i mean that's it it's that's i know that's it i
know this is the problem we can and i just think there was multiple there was just multiple times to make this lot less worse and it just kept getting worse like just mitigate quickly
yeah or is you know conspiracy theory or is it like you're speed running this experiment and you're getting out this powerful message that
it's like no one's forcing you to buy everything i actually obviously maybe
i mean it is what it is i i i feel like
i just don't think that was an intentional you know that was not the test we know that's not the test whatever you were testing that wasn't it it wasn't testing to see if people would just buy something random because that you know i don't think this was intentional whatsoever and i say that like i don't think he had you know a negative intent i think the response was done poorly like i don't think the original thing was a problem it's the yeah response after the fact so
so i have exactly zero point zero times bought something when someone posted a ca
oh that's funny because i have many times
right like yeah negative i just i just won't why would i because i have no information i don't know what i'm what am i doing like so
the other thing is it started trending
also i'm zero point
zero times on something because i saw you had
you had
two things you had two things going on and it's it's like and this is the way it's designed right i mean it's the the network is now designed to do that yeah so that if people and then because then the other response because somebody mentioned hey it was trending and dan said well that's just the people that you know or what and it's like doesn't matter
okay doesn't matter
it's just like that's not a good response dan like it doesn't matter
yeah i mean look obviously i mean my personal take is i think dan could have done better like done better from a like i think it is it's like i think if you're in a if if you're in a leadership position anywhere you have a responsibility like i don't think we should end and i think he could've done better but he didn't so so then alright and then i think the the the the conversation i just found like the conversation that comes out of it
yeah
i thought was interesting like i thought there was a lot of good discussion and debate about what is the role of farcaster the the protocol versus the app what is the merkel team pushing are we pushing casino antics the the only thing i think that doesn't appear on on the feed as much is like the the people talking and and you know and i and i also think there's varying levels of civility and how aggressive and and and kind of mean people are getting i kind of and maybe it's because of my following graph but i felt like people were pretty civil
probably not
good conversations on both sides and and then i saw linda say like woah things got really nasty today and i was like oh i didn't even see that so
if you look through some of the replies people were it just depends like it was all over the place
so it was you know if you dig into the replies you'll see both of that and then there were other folks like oxen and garrett and a few other people who i saw casting things and then there were discussions within their threads as well so within something like that and there was a couple things like this with dan i didn't pull the other one i should have when he did finally cast this but again this is like over twenty minutes later i think it was like twenty two minutes later or something there was some discussion in here as well and there was some if you look through some of these responses some of these are not great you know mhmm and then there's some people going what were you testing like what are you you know like what are you doing because everyone's like what's going on so even people who are i was like i don't know at all yeah yeah there was a lot of
like that is like test if if you're if you're dan romero and you're you know and you are testing something like yeah you could test with an alt i don't like i'm not popular enough i test with my you
can test with an alt there's a there were so many different ways to approach this so here was the one that that really threw some people off was this response like post something someone creates a token based off of it why did you make me buy the coin so i this is where the this is where this kinda went off the rails as well in the replies
i think that was the that was the one that set people off the emotions like where people's emotions got
yeah in and even even i responded i'm like that's not their problem like that's not like that's not helpful i almost replied again i actually almost sent him a dm and then i'm like you know what he's getting piled on and up i don't need to add to this it's not gonna add any value i don't need to say this right now i just felt like there's there were so many opportunities to just deal with it differently and yeah the only people who lost were fueled by greed and fomo and when it doesn't work they bring out their sanctimony sanctimonimoney which i like that thank you that was good but the yes the message that users should be smarter is way more valuable than the annoying people who churn away maybe i i in this particular most of the time i 100% agree with that like you you you know if if somebody if you get scammed on something because you didn't look into who it was and i totally agree with that like it's on you adults have agency like no one's responsible no one made you buy it and that still holds true in this situation except for all the other things like except there were so many ways to mitigate this that just didn't get done and that could have get done very quickly and that's what i'm frustrated a little about because it just there were so much easier ways to deal with this and it just didn't get done it didn't need it didn't need to be this bad it didn't need to be this bad
but it wasn't but also was it that bad
yeah i think it was i don't think that this was if you are now putting your focus in as trading and that this yes you're you just pissed off a bunch of people who are traders who whatever if that's what you want now if you don't care about that and like that's not your focus right now then whatever but i do think that this is a it was a big misstep it doesn't people were already cranky you just made them a million times crankier like how is that helpful it's not so that's all but so you're saying no it's not bad and you should i
just didn't think
it was a good conversation
i don't think so i i mean i i i'm not less than ideal but i don't think it was so bad i don't know i'm tired i'm tired i
know i know i'm tired a few more things than this
well go ahead but going back the only thing i will say is like it's the
when i was at devconnect i met someone who runs a drug treatment center addiction treatment center and we were talking about and he was a former addict himself and he was previously homeless living in los angeles and he cleaned himself up and he's been running this treatment center and we had a really long talk and he's getting into crypto also as a way to try to kind of give i think people who are struggling with addiction this is like teaching them new skills
okay
and using and and and whatever so he's
a new addiction okay
so that's where we went to so it was about skills right but we actually he's he was just talking a lot about why people do drugs and he was something like he was college like he's like listen i'm intelligent he was like he was in college for engineering or something yeah you know so yeah and we started talking about degen addiction and gamble like kind of the gambling addiction and how like how similar they are and i was just thinking of like all the times if you've ever driven through atlantic city or new jersey where there's gam i mean i guess gambling's legal everywhere now
you know
god help us but like but all the billboards that are like one eight hundred gambling like if you have like the amount of support that goes up for gambling addicts and you don't really have any of those resources visible on gambling networks that and casinos that are now everywhere right and being pushed and i think the people who suffer are invisible so yeah we did talk about kind of like if
that's interesting
just degen and he and i actually talked about maybe doing a some sort of panel someday or a discussion around degen conditions
i think that's a great idea and i think oh so a lot of those billboards and things you see that's part of the deal when they get money to build a casino and when they get permission to build a casino that's why you have we don't need permission online so there you go
you don't need it like it's just anywhere
no they're not gonna make if you're not made to do it you're not gonna do it so so interesting
and then what happens if you don't do that right so it's like oh i'm high agency i don't have to worry about it right free country adults have agency great but if you damage like if people get hurt and it's kinda like you know like a society is only as healthy as its poorest folks and like yeah so so i agree like i just i i agree a 100% with everything dan says but at the
same time it doesn't matter
i don't know it's like complicated
it's it's i think this situation was slightly different i really do i i think it was a big misstep that it was so easily avoided and i don't know we'll see it's just not it's not a good look unforced error that just didn't need to happen anyway moving on not really moving on but a couple more things on this
related
how cute is warplet holding a ca though
i know he's very cute i like him with the ca or warby warby i call him warby but others don't this is from links and i think this is interesting are you a chump or a jerk the space is filled with both chumps come in groups and they think things are true simply because they wish them so you might be a chump if you think you own any part of fc or that base is going to give you going to airdrop you some tokens that will give you some ownership of the network jerks take advantage of chumps they're experts in saying non committal things that lead chumps to believe the cool thing for their own ends for instance a jerk might allude to you owning a network or airdropping a token simply to get you to use the network they always have moral high ground in their mind because a they didn't technically lie and b they are maximizing shareholder value the thing is jerks need chumps more than chumps need jerks so if you are unhappy with the amount of jerks in this space stop being such a chump
so that was interesting and there was some additional discussion down here so i'll just leave it at that
do you
think you're a chump or a jerk professor i don't i don't think i'm a jerk at all but i think i've definitely been a chump on many occasions and i think that's normal in this space and in life almost this from limone as a user and builder oh let me let me start down here farcaster's founding premise was building a social this is from nikki sapp was building social that doesn't extract from users the way web two platforms do that vision still matters to me but watching the platform aggressively push casino mechanics while influential accounts push extractive low captures is potentially more predatory and this went on to talk about this lamone came back as a user and builder i actually care about one thing above everything else people actually using the network the new casino meta doesn't bother me meta doesn't bother me open systems attract all kinds of experiments even trading memes and speculation and that energy can pull new people and capital in what matters is we keep the core intact that two users should always find each other and talk no matter what if this direction brings more creators more builders more communities i'm all for it as long as farcaster stays in open permissionless as a protocol we're on the right path so i saw a lot of that i think this was a good example of the discussion that was going on like and it kind of some of it's spun from this some of this has been going on continuously since the shift i think since the clanker purchase honestly and that shift towards towards trying to like you yeah yeah so i think this is a good discussion to have
i don't know how much we've accomplished with it yet but we'll see and then this was from you can't be evil versus won't be evil as an early farcaster user came for the decentralization who has been around long enough to see a lot of merkel's iteration in search of growth i always come back to the definition of sufficiently decentralized that varun wrote a social network achieves sufficient decentralization two users can find each other and communicate even if the rest of the network wants to prevent it that's the promise that's all i personally signed up for that's the thin line between can't be evil and won't be evil and i'll just leave that there so a lot of that a lot of a lot of discussion like that which is good
was nikki's cast before or after dan dropped his
his eoa after it was after
it was after okay
i think so i think it was i have to go back and check but i'm pretty sure it was yeah it was after because dan at this point is sixteen hours ago i think so yeah sixteen he's around sixteen hours ago and nikki's was five seven hours ago
no it's not because no no no it's like that seven hours is is not right because i quote casted it eighteen hours ago or something
hold on then that's not right oh then maybe it was before i think it was before
and i think also maybe when i was so different
yeah that's not right so yeah it was before yeah twenty hours ago yep
right i think maybe one of the reasons i'm so defensive defensive what's the wrong word i'm looking at but or being much more charitable with what dan did
yeah
is because i'm not seeing it as an isolated incident but with like wrapped up into all the meta around should farcaster be a trading app
yeah
and people getting upset about it and and and so when people piled on on dan it just to me was like just one more thing to pile on that people are unhappy that farcaster has moved into like kind of trading and i think that's why it was like ugh who cares so i think that is no it's just like it's one more thing we've already talked about this like there's so much mhmm so i think ultimately that's where i was already having the conversation with nikki a little bit seeing that that debate and it's like there's so many people upset about trading
and i have this conversation a
lot with people at devconnect and
and it is you know so so i think that is why i
i think that's that's fair yeah that's fair i think there's
yeah i think this conversation has been pretty continuous in different forms and we're just that's why i mean like this was a bit of a i think that was already percolating and then this happens and then it's just like oh fuck like oh no this is not good so i think that's that's where how that happened
did you say the f word on is that gonna mess up our youtube channel
oh i didn't even think of that i forget about that part youtube is surprisingly yeah they have they have issues with that sort of thing alright we've got a couple more things that are a little lighter anything else you wanna say on this before we
no i yeah are you laughing
yes i
know i have something like in stuck in my eye and i keep trying to like get it out of the phone and i'm like oh yeah i'm like yeah
you can go back off screen i was i thought the reason you were doing that was because you saw this was coming
i thought it was the mona
oh
mona the mona's that did it that's why i started laughing well like it's the mona dick about isn't it
no i have nothing else to say except try to let's just try
to come away a little bit smarter from everything
yeah and just remind people like no one is forcing you to buy things there are a million ways to lose money in crypto and it's really hard to lose money
very few to make make money but lots of ways to lose it there are
a lot of ways to lose money and one way to not is don't actually buy anything ever no one's you don't actually i mean it's okay it's you don't have to you you don't have to you can enjoy farcaster why are you laughing
i just think that's funny just don't buy anything ever in crypto ever like that's a good way to move things forward i just thought it was funny but yeah you're right you're right
i mean
you're right though yeah absolutely and and or or you could buy all the things like me but you will lose money you will absolutely
we have fun
you absolutely lose money this was from jeff x y z yes this is not a test yes this is for low agency users yes i do have the private key yes when kevin m effort returns he will have an allocation waiting for him so this was the launch of monad dickbutt and it's pretty it just was funny it's just funny because there's a dickbutt on every chain and that's just the way the way it rolls and we are not serious people so there you go moving on to a few builder things another quick update on writer coins we discovered an issue on friday this is from colin from paragraph that prevented the market cap of early writer coins from increasing beyond 10 ks we fixed this for avc and all newly created coins on friday and we've right now gone ahead and helped the other affected riders relaunch their coins with the proper liquidity params anyone who is holding an affected rider coin has received a proportionate allocation for the new coin reward recipients also need to reclaim rewards for both you can claim from paragraph.com/claim or on the writer's claim page sorry for the very sorry for the inconvenience here so if you go to this frame on colin's on that colin had shared you'll be able to claim reclaim their new ones including the gm forecaster one because that was one of the ones that was fixed which you know i'm sorry we weren't able to to figure that out sooner but we didn't have enough people actually buy it they like didn't figure it out until fred came along
that's amazing
actually it's popped off and that's how they figured this out it was a problem
has anyone checked to see if ethereum has the same bug
oh that would be great can somebody go check that devs do something maybe that's the problem
maybe that's the issue
that's funny this was cool to see so this is from jc four p okay here's a prototype of wingman so this goes back he shared a prototype about a way to optimize your casts and he was building something he launched a token called wingman and then here's the actual thing you need 10,000,000 of the token to access right now it just rates your last 40 casts on its scoring system later today you'll be able to compose a cast and it'll provide feedback so it gives you like it scores your cast and kind of gives you an idea of how engaged how much engagement you get from that i don't think i'm logged in i don't think i'm logged in but it gives you an idea of what your what your casts are etcetera etcetera and it's pretty cool so go check that out from our friend jc4p and of course i bought some wingman because i wanted access and also just to support him because it was him but i
love that
he's nfa dyo
i love that he's still building on farcaster because i know he's he's been vocally critical at times and i think and so i think especially for people like him to see kind of like the he's such a he's a great builder and
great builder
and this may be and that's why i bought like at first when as soon as i saw he dropped something i'm like of course i'm gonna support that because he's such a good builder and then i like that he you know made it token gated like good good for you like that's a great way to do this because i think there's a you know a miss like a lot of people don't realize that there's a lot of cost involved to running many apps like there is cost involved it's not free so you know that's how i look at it is if you're gonna provide something to me like i wanna support it so mhmm
i like that use case of like buy a little token it's like you buy i know that who did the like the gif one gif
yeah yeah i was fine with that
yeah it was always like yeah buy a little token
use it it seems also somehow easier than yeah mhmm it's fair deal and it's a good use case for clankers
and it answers the question what would the token do it does
and the this is what the token would do give you access i think giving access is one of the best use cases of tokens and nfts
mhmm
this from sahil and this is long so i'm just gonna give a quick overview of this every clanker coin should do this last last week few clankers launched believer leaderboards on cura to identify and reward their token communities in one week 2,000 plus fip two token casts five x growth for regent as an example 400 plus users earned for trading and casting more volume and attention $2,500 in rewards from for clanker creators so just another way to use your token in a way that drives attention to it using cura so if you want to learn more go check out cura and you'll see that now they're doing something kind of smart where once you launch a token there's a message that'll pop up on that thread it's automated that's that tells you about cura and how you can use the token there so very cool so for those with communities check it out this from our friends at minted merch minted merch t shirt design competition is live unleash your creativity and design the next hit tee on farcaster and i've seen a few shared that look pretty cool so it's going through now through december 7 anything farcaster vibes quote cast this cast with your design and make sure you tag minted merch so go check that out excited to see what people come up with i saw one from brett draws stuff i should have grabbed it that was really cute it said it's efficiently decentralized in like a gradient purple and it was really i'm like i want that i don't know if they're gonna do i would love for them to do a vote on this it would be fun for those who are holding minted merch token would be another good use case there you go well this from tim and again i'm not gonna read this whole thing because it's really long but go give it a read from tldr i know there's too many things i told you there was lots of things a quick update on bracke building on farcaster has given our team a priceless gift the gift of genuine conviction that we have a product which high quality users actually enjoy come back to and like telling their friends about we are now working on distributing that product into new social spaces everything we worked on for a year has been consciously structured so brackey could help us grow by being able to live on in any social feed that's been the vision so it continues he continues on to talk about why the social feed is important which i think is a really good discussion and talking about how they're expanding to twitter and then they're going to expand to other locations so go check that out for those who are interested in braci and they're i like they've been building slowly and intentionally and it's been a very smart move the way in which they've been moving so we appreciate you guys this is really cool and again i'm not gonna read this whole thing but this i thought was interesting and unrelated to farcaster directly this is from pwndao it's happening the first pure defi mortgage is live the time to build non speculative defi and expand its real world utility is now check out the first five year fixed rate on chain mortgage powered by pwn protocol aave pools and etherfi weeath so bordeaux bordeaux hackerspace first ever pure defi mortgage i think this is just really interesting so that's why i pulled this one to me this has always been a really great use case that we just haven't seen come into reality yet and this is just a really cool thing where they're trying to fund a hackerspace so great use case very exciting love it this we've had a couple interesting things which i forgot to share this last week and i saw it again i went oh that's all right we need to share this now so this is from bea i'm excited to share what i've been snacking on for the last three months my wife shilpa
shilpa has been working on healthy chocolates for kids and i can confirm they're great for adults too so this is this is the cocoa melts and i did not can make connect the dots by the way that this was varun's wife so very cool to see this and i went to order and then i realized it's only available in california
k
so you can't order it yet but if you're in california go check it out it's kinda cool and julia speaking of spouses at julia was on cheekypint talking nuclear so that is tan's wife so that was fun to see this from aniri next week the base app team is in new york for an irl surge week if you're a builder who wants to jam with the team all week get hands on feedback on your mini app reach out we've made some incredible hires by doing these in the past if you're a creator who wants to meet the creator team join for creator coffee chats get set up with your creator coin and earning on baseapp or reach out to us as well this is for next week in nyc only for everyone else we have plenty of ongoing programs for builders and creators around the world always running on base so check that out if you're in new york there's also next week is art basel i like booked a hotel and everything and i'm like i might even cancel because i don't know what's going on i've seen nothing i keep checking and i've seen like bits and pieces that like there's some kind of base event with boys club happening on the third there's something going with pudgy penguins on the fourth but like nothing solid and i think everyone was too distracted by dev connect that none of that has been pushed out yet so i'm like yeah
either that or art out trader in
i mean yeah i mean that's been the case for a couple years so like that's not surprising that it's not as much going on but i'm like i've literally seen nothing so it's it's a little little weird so i don't know if like what's happening but i might be at art basel next week and i might not i might cancel if nothing's going on no vehicle procedure i don't maybe if i end up going i might throw something together but i'm kind of gonna evaluate over the next couple days and see if anybody actually gives any solid ideas of what's happening and then finally it's thanksgiving folks so we'll be off on friday because we just will because we both have kids at home and family stuff going on so this is the only show this week we'll be back on monday i did like your dry brine versus wet brine for your thanksgiving turkey prep dry crushed it crushed it i'm pretty sure only like two people voted didn't like no one 22 23
oh okay
yeah yeah
i know
there are some people there are some people yep
i had a pretty good pool and i guess dan dan agrees to the dry dry brining there and it was funny you're doing this and turkey zinger said and thanksgiving is a week long holiday in my house so he's already cooking away
you were cooking dry brining is easier dry brining is easier so you know for people who have low effort i can understand why you like dry brining better
so she's calling you all low effort low effort thanksgivingers like so there you go
sprinkle some salt sprinkle some salt on some meat oh oh oh it's olive oil
dan she's calling you low effort in your brining just just note that please and this is from our friend galazio started things friendsgiving prep today prepped a double batch of shortbread cookies i made the dough and shaped the cookies i'll freeze them until the day of the dinner amazing so lots of fun things on the timeline this is from justin the costco cart in prep for thanksgiving end of year so cool to see and then lastly from codan or codan codan a great omen when you just arrived to stay with your family for thanksgiving and it's a fortune cookie saying avoid compulsively making things worse so and i think that's with that that is good advice for those of you heading to see your family somebody else had posted oh it was me she had posted about so we're saying we're in crypto or tech this year and i was like ma'am this is a wendy's
