gmfarcaster it is friday happy friday december 12 and you are here with nounish prof and adrienne for twenty nine minutes of farcaster news to start your day plus nothing actually nothing just that i'm like plus we have no guests today never mind
it's a chill day today so very excited let me just do some tweeting
yeah so let the let the twitter folks know that yes farcaster is still alive come see come see how alive it is
yes yes it is the staying power of this particular thing is quite amazing
yeah just one second come see how good farcaster is
okay
yeah so yeah it has some staying power and i'm very surprised that it isn't over yet but nope nope we still go on but there's lots of fun things happening there's a lot going on we're starting to get a little bit back to semi normal for farcaster but yeah so let's let's dive in let's just dive into it this from dan farcaster app d a u w a u m a u for the last two years so that's daily active users weekly active users and monthly active users and i was like for the past two years two oh yeah 2024 2025 would be the past two years i'm like that doesn't yeah that's correct so what i thought was interesting is that we're you know we've been hanging pretty steady there in that range it hasn't fallen too much from this the other thing you know it's funny looking at this
you know what happened at these points totally yeah like i know exactly what this is i i less know what this is i definitely know what this is like this is clearly clanker like you know the clanker announcement like this is degen and frames and you know that whole thing it's really funny actually that's not that's not degen this is farcon it's later yeah that's farcon close to farcon
has to be has to be venice yeah because this to be degen yeah there was one i remember yeah so i think it was farcon i think that was the farcon pump so anyways it's really kinda it's kinda fun it's kinda fun to to look through it and see all the all the moments on the graph which is interesting like you normally it's harder to do that to tell a story with a with a line chart but if you've been hanging around here there's a story with each of these little peaks and valleys so here we are and so i feel like you know it's kinda hit its it's kinda hasn't fallen way off even during the farcaster's dead moment
so but it not dead not dead yet and and and i think all the all the admission was it's like it still hasn't hit the growth trajectory
no no clearly
finding yeah yeah it's like if your goal is to get a billion people to use something every day you've got a a few orders of magnitude i don't know if you remember do you remember the first farcon one of the memes that came out of it no orders of magnitude one
no mm-mm oh i don't remember that one
so in boston you remember dan came to farcon just not because he came to farcon was in town so he kinda stopped by and he gave a very short he wasn't there the whole day gave a short talk and someone asked him and and there were how many people in the room 60
70 70 people in the room
yeah so someone asked him a question about how he thought about growth and he just answered that he said he thinks in orders of magnitude
i forgot about that
right
and if
so we still haven't hit that million and that's kind of you know when i think about that line chart there's also the the yes we haven't lost a lot but we haven't gained a lot so that's the problem right clearly yeah
and anyway that night though johnny mac like launched a meme of like the end i missed you it was like the damn thing's in orders of magnitude yeah nonlinear where did he go
i don't know why did he leave he's in why did he leave he's in wyoming just you know chilling apparently
i know you got some light
only when we we get bigger and i'm like what alright moving on we've got this from dwr semi regular farcaster annoyances thread if you were bdfoff benevolent dictator for one farcaster feature what would you have us work on the more specific the ask the better by the way that's specific when you drop an fip in the in the replies it's pretty specific and then he's gonna ask questions like how does it grow users in near term things like that so make sure that you have the answer to that
i didn't see this one
oh this is great saw bert talking about it i did not see dan's reply so bert were saying i am once again asking for a community manager and i agree and because that's not what we do we we have our own thing but a community manager would be very very helpful for many reasons and i have many thoughts about that but dan said the community manager would quit because they have to work with me i feel like that's a little ptsd there
but we won't just move on
not that bad and then bert do you need a hug
you know what you know what we fixed in actual bert in in the office every day think it would
i think it would
i did not because you know what i'm gonna request and i know my answer and i so i didn't bother the only two things i would request are things i'd like returned trending feed and the question would be how does that grow users it doesn't it just makes me happy and my cute little reactions that i miss so i have nothing i had nothing new what would how about you did you have something in mind
yeah but i would just encourage people if you see this so yes dan will ask how does it grow users and if you have an answer that's great and he's more likely to do it yes that being said it's also an opportunity he's gonna be reading this thread so if you have any product feedback requests whatever like as long as you're not aggressively insulting him he'll probably read it and think about it so i asked for native streaming or at least discovery streaming so like you know so obviously like how twitter has like
so that we can tie i could tie that to how would that grow users or how would it grow like interact like grow activity would probably be the better because you could see many spaces
yeah and it makes the app more sticky because you're discovering content there and entertainment and then you stick it's like exactly something else to do
yeah so that one i that i mean i i didn't think of that because it's always in in my brain but i just didn't think to add it out there so i'll need to go in here and plus one yours the other thing he did drop was the a bugs app a bugs thread so farcaster app annoying bugs if you're consistently running into a bug with the farcaster mobile or web app please reply here we're more likely to fix a bug if you have a screenshot or screen recording recording so there's a few things i know people mentioned in here but also i need to drop a couple too that just are little little things that are bugging me if you will yeah i feel like they changed the sizing or something between in the notifications i noticed this like a week or two ago where i keep hitting the wrong notification where i wasn't before so something's weird there and i don't know what it is but
yeah there's that too yeah it's a bug yeah it's a bug it it's actually a feature you
just don't know it yet
this from linda clanker spotlight for wish by m y k trading fees go towards funding real gift purchases for the community and help spread holiday cheer so this was the focus yesterday and i think the day before two days before that was qr so they're bringing back clanker spotlight they are not just focusing on things that are brand new but things that have been hanging around for a bit so this one is not new it's about i think a month old something like that but cool to see this i am gonna be streaming with mike.eth tomorrow i think it's tomorrow at noon yeah today's friday tomorrow would be saturday that is correct and we're gonna be giving away some stuff off the wish list he's got a whole thing he did it last saturday wanted me to jump on then no like i i can't never at this minute i need prep time for that so now i i'm gonna be ready i've got i've got different hats ready to go so yeah i'm very excited it's gonna
be fun
so i get i get you'll you'll see a whole different range of hats and and things tomorrow so yeah that's gonna be a lot of fun i'm excited so this is really cool to see this coming back so clanker spotlight wish holiday theme token and mini app founded by myk we're trading activity user agent help fund real gift purchases users create wishlist coordinate holiday shopping through a built in gift registry and participate in livestreams that select random winners whose gifts are purchased using trading fees this weekend's livestream is tomorrow at noon so very cool glad to see that highlighted and then there was like hey clanker spotlight is now driving only a few $100 in volume hard to interpret that as anything but extremely bearish there was a slight lag because it was more like 30 k in volume which you know isn't nothing it's not massive but it's pretty good so there's a slight lag with spotlight getting set up and people getting notified when there's a new spotlight so there you go it's about 30 k volume in thirty minutes and wholesome that these trading fees go towards purchasing holiday gifts for the community so he's taking all those fees putting it towards gifts but also people are just buying gifts off your wish list too so there's that so i i won one last week but also both of my other ones were fulfilled so it's been hey there you go pretty cool and by the way mentioned yesterday like he he was fulfilling some big wishes like i saw a lot of laptops iphones ipads and when i was thinking about it like people were really moved and excited and these are you know folks that you interact with all the time on the timeline and you know if you think about someone who's like who's an artist or a dev something like this is you know hopefully gonna give back to us in a way because they'll have better tools and who knows what they're gonna build with those tools so very cool this also from linda going to experiment with a weekly clanker roundup post on the farcaster account every friday that highlights recent updates from the clanker ecosystem builders first one is tomorrow which is today trying out with an initial group we'll keep iterating add more projects and might rotate teams if it ends up being too many and i think this is great because we were so we're working with clanker we have been for a bit so we've been doing some interviews with teams but we're doing one a week there's only so many you can cover like already we have a list of i don't even know like dozen and i'm like we've got eight spots and three of them have already taken so it's like trying to figure out how are getting a dozen into you know five more spots so it's i'm glad to see this because i think this is another way to drive attention to the projects that are building something real significant sustainable you know really trying some something unique and those kinds of things you know that you wanna highlight so cool and we'll we'll share this on monday once it's out in the world and one more thing from linda and you might wanna get a little sound a little sound ready for this one which sound do i need
unrelated to clanker at all but related to you people this is from linda i'm going to spend less time scrolling the feed for a while just for my own sanity i try to keep top on top of things in feed for my work but the amount of constant negativity has been hasn't been healthy for me and been very distracting if you need me please dc or tag me if you're an asshole to me i'm not obligated to respond like that had to be stated say it one more time
there we go for real like stop it stop it now a lot there's stop it there has been some on farcaster there's been a lot on twitter these two things together not healthy because linda's been trying to reply to everyone like everyone when she sees threads of people kind of especially for those getting things wrong she's correcting the record she's just making sure people understand because there's a lot of confusion out there and there's just some people just being flat out mean and i've unfollowed a couple of people recently because of that so stop it just stop it but if you do need something she will respond if it's an actual you know thing not your whining
who linda is who's linda adrienne
who's linda linda is a national treasure and we protect her at all costs is all you need to know no linda is well she works for merkle now so mhmm and she's doing a lot of i guess her focus is on clanker trading
clanker and projects but yeah yeah
but she be before joining merkle one was building her own bootstrap startup on farcaster with daniel p r o s b called bountycaster which is bounties on farcaster before that she had started her own crypto fund before that she was an early coinbase employee she was in a producer of the ethereum or the vitalik ethereum documentary and she's got a big big big online presence and she's just one of the most like i don't know like interesting kind smart like consistent
pop full
stop it
don't be
you're picking the wrong even i think dan posted something i didn't pull this but it basically said if you're mad mad at me and leave linda alone leave britney alone what are you doing
also by the way in case you're looking for the clanker one zero one livestream which zoll was it's pinned to linda's account but i think it's also pinned on twitter as well but yeah go check that out yeah so yeah stop it just stop it alright moving on this from our yeah what go ahead do you wanna i'll
add just and also a reminder that farcaster does not have a comms team there is no pr department it's
just clearly
a small team of builders it's a small team of mostly engineers building a product and a protocol and and i think when someone pushed dan about his communication style he just said the only thing he cares about is honesty he's like so yeah he's not gonna give communication with hugs but it's just honest and you have not just dan but the entire team is speaking about farcaster so it's they they took a lot of heat and it's they are not obligated to listen to any harassment i think
no nobody is gonna be an like just nobody yeah no if somebody is harassing you online you are not obligated to respond and you're and you're not obligated to continue following them you're not obligated to allow them to see your stuff block and mute is a fun important
so there you great merkel tree or angela angela merkel like what even is merkel merkel this is like we're back to farcaster 101 and i can't
help we've done on in a while
i can't help patrolling us or they're just new merkel manufacturing is the name of the the company that is the vendor backed company that is building the farcaster protocol that is building the farcaster app
there we go not confusing
at all
so this was a this was an honest question yeah that that might have been just trolling just kidding
yeah so good good explanation okay let's move on let's move on we got some other things and we have some fun things to talk about soon as well this was from farpan this is one of the most important fips revoking an app key aka signer will not delete any messages previously signed with it i guess this has been a problem for a bit where if you would revoke the access the signer then everything would disappear so that's not good this has been one of the long awaited advantages of message ordering enabled by snap chain happy to see it implemented what this actually means for users if you is you can safely revoke access to apps you have previously granted farcaster access to without worrying that any casts or reactions performed using this app will be deleted as was the case before
love this this has and i and i actually missed this because i remember reading this and i what now that you're rereading it to me i had a question was is this implemented already and i think it
seems like since yes this is rolled rolled out already yeah it's rolled out a while ago sorry we've been a bit amiss about updating the fips just updated so there you go
many things
many things
this is i'm obsessed with this because i recently checked my signers list of how many apps i've authorized to my farcast account and there's a lot and there's a lot of old ones too and i wanted to clean it up but i wasn't sure what i would be deleting from my profile that and i'm a digital hoarder so
same so where do you do that though if you wanna revoke
okay so in the individual apps you would need to do it but where would you see
oh okay in the farcaster settings
oops nope that was channels never mind
so somewhere in the settings
in the settings you will find this revocation
it's in advanced on the mobile app and i don't know in desktop but on the mobile app it's in advanced and then there's connected apps where you can manage connected apps
okay
memory lane yeah
yeah i'm sure i'm sure because we try everything so that's the other thing like this may not be as big of an issue for a lot of people but we literally use probably every mini app that comes out just to test things out so i'm sure i have a lot of approvals out there too so i'd have to go through alright moving on this from cyrus wait so the degen app is now the social app and the social app is now the degen app yes accurate
correct so speaking of the degen app this is from jacek farcaster's latest update sparked a lot of conversations while the ecosystem explores new directions we want to speak directly to the people who care about the social layer because that's where our conviction has always been degen app is and will remain a social platform first a place built for people expression culture and connection we've been building on farcaster long before this week's discussion our team has lived in this ecosystem daily testing shipping listening adapting we've been firsthand what the community actually wants open decentralized social experiences that genuinely feel fun to use that belief hasn't changed if anything it's stronger now where we see some shift away from social we see an opportunity to double down on it farcaster is still the most promising foundation for decentralized social and we believe the best social apps will come from teams who already understand the network from the inside degen is proud of what we've built so far and we're even more excited about what's ahead new features more community driven input and a product that continues to push toward our north star becoming the best social experience on farcaster if you're one of the people who still believes in decentralized social if the farcaster vision mattered to you if you're looking for a home for that energy download the degen app and come join the community so there you go cool alright so there that's one option
but wait
i love there's more but wait there's more this from greyseymour i love recaster fc so much i've had it on my phone for a long time but only started really using it recently it doesn't replace the official client for me but it certainly augments and improves my experience with farcaster strong recommend this is a scheduled post i can legit set it and forget it and look at this sleek interface huge thanks and hat tip speaking of hats to the kind soul who reminded me how great this app is i don't remember your at but i appreciate you so there you go another option lovely option to to use and this was from i always say this wrong
kyle kyle
has a name and i've dm'd them and asked for pronunciation and they've told me how to pronounce their name
i know that's why i was looking to you and hoping you read it
yes hey haole it's h a o l e it's not it and that's not correct and we're so wrong but anyway
and we're so sorry but we love you so this from the person who created recaster thank you dwr because he had said strong he had recasted greyseymour's i know there are some complaints about farcaster's recent decision i disagree with some of them too like the button move but as an indie dev i still think farcaster is one of the best places to build like recaster i had zero incentives or marketing and dan went out of his way to help promote it a lot now recaster has 200 dau which is already better than most crypto projects great point and a lot of the mini apps that we are you know we hail have you know like less than that keep sick burn yeah i mean really you're you're not wrong i'll keep building recaster plan to focus on real discussion rather than the kol og driven dynamic stay tuned so there you go but wait adrienne but wait there's more orchestra's so dead so dead but wait there's more gm from uno this is from me so i could not get uno working for me i was just having a couple issues i talked about it the other day one thing was literally the my the size of my text that i had
to make smaller to be able
to check off something silly so i finally got on uno and was able to try this out and you know it was cool to see the gifs that are integrated similar to like twitter where it just has that button you can add it channels are there the visuals look really great so this one leans into if you are sharing an image or video it's gonna have a little bit of a boost on the algo it appears so a lot of the when i was looking through the feed it's very visual oriented and the visuals look great you can add a location to a cast which i think is interesting and helpful if you're say you're you know going somewhere like if you were in buenos aires and wanted to share where you were for an event that's gonna be helpful mini apps are a small embed and they seem to work with external wallets right now there's no wallet built into this particular client so but you can for the mini apps you can connect external wallets so that's interesting little different and they're small they're not like the big embed that you see on farcaster which was interesting so again a focus on design more than anything else i did have one feedback that i couldn't tell the quocast was a quocast because it just looks like 66 and i was like why is there a 66 there what does that mean this is some kind of secret code shouldn't it be 67 it's a little something for the kids so i was very confused but it turns out it was just a quotecast so definitely a a different look and feel but i like it it's also interesting to see how gifs are that you share there are rendered elsewhere and they're all different and on farcaster they don't show at all so they don't show show it all in the farcaster app on base it shows as a video and then on zapper and degen it shows as a static image until you hit play and then it's a video so the gifs are it's interesting how it handles that across different clients and if you're building something i would check all the different clients and see how it looks in them just so you understand any differences especially as some of these grow and especially base app honestly because that's the one that's gonna have a lot of users very very soon you've used it now what do you think and have you used recaster or degen app or what what other apps are you using that and what do you think about them
i've i've tried a bunch of them and i'm i wanna get better at pulling them into kind of regular rotation i haven't used recaster or at least not neither yeah you know maybe early early on but yeah that review is making me realize i should probably try it yeah and uno i've used and base app i use and zapper i
use yeah zapper is such a different experience for you know like if you're a trader like if that's your focus i would definitely check it out mhmm it definitely has a different feel but also if you're if you like nfts like
has a whole it has the old nft feed you know that i used to love so there's that like your collectibles you can see you know so it's it's yeah it has a definitely a different feel but it's pretty
but but yeah my favorite thing seeing is everybody talking about how farcaster is dead hate new changes on farcaster and then every other cast i see is like hi from another client
and not only that farcaster's dead decentralized social is dead that's what i saw a lot of on twitter
as well because farcaster's just the neck the you know in the long line of graves of all decentralized social that hasn't worked yeah and yet here we are and we've been active on farcaster for a few years where
yeah
but no
you know when you look at the percentage of posts that are coming from the farcaster app you know formerly known as warpcast it was 90 some percent then with the base app i think it's probably gone down but this is the first time you start seeing so many more especially with zapper just launched this past week uno's still in test flight even and we're you know so yeah it's the the the difference between sentiment and reality couldn't be further from the truth
it's crazy like it's really funny it's really
really
funny so yeah i think we are more decentralized than we've ever been from the protocol level so not dead yet folks not dead yet so i enjoyed that though i enjoyed trying the different ones it's hard to get there to like you said use it on the daily and i do need to figure out a rotation for that mhmm a better rotation because i'm using because i do wanna keep using them because i i feel like there's gonna be times where there's different things i wanna use but also i just wanna know the options in case whatever my favorite one is has issues or goes down or whatever so or for my moods a client for every mood there you go this from dylsteck sharing watcher guru justin youtube now allows us creators to receive payouts in crypto stablecoins
do you know which stablecoin no which one did you think it was off the top of your head
right we all assumed usdc right of course stablecoin usdc ah but think about it no the mafia's back it's paypal usdc usd i think they call it so it's the paypal stablecoin which i thought was i'm like oh that's interesting like that's you know that's interesting that that was the choice made so but then it's like okay that makes sense that makes sense that's gotta be more comfortable for a traditional type of media company to use like because they know paypal you know it it probably integrated very easily so so yeah kinda usd gotta start somewhere it's paypal start gotta start somewhere somewhere but i was surprised i am and we haven't i've been haven't turned on our monetization because we didn't go through and like really focus that out so i haven't turned it on yet but now this actually got me more interested in doing that i'll be honest because i was like oh
no it's on but i turned it off when i set the things up i'll tell you later oh because we didn't because we didn't set any video off yeah but we didn't set up like the which things we wanna see in there
videos if you i apologize to all of our good friends but if you go to an old video including myself because i was watching old videos
they're on now
exactly i hate to do that to you people so maybe that's the way we'll do it we'll leave it like not on until a couple weeks later or something like that
i really am it's i just don't i don't like the experience of watching a show with the with the interruption of ads it really bothers me and i think that's what my hesitation is plus i just wanna make sure it's not showing crappy ads i don't know why it's just something about i want the experience to be good but yes i'm also allergic to
obviously obviously obviously alright moving on i gotta share this a little differently so we can get the videos in this is the next thing so we've got a speaking speaking of platforms various platforms we've got our our spotify wrap for creators so i don't know i didn't know this was a thing but apparently it's a thing and this is ours for let me see if i can get this larger i think i have to make it bigger like full big here we go
so you know the show is not over so if you're just listening and you're confused we're just sharing our spotify rep for gmfarcaster so
there's so many interesting things in here that i thought were really like surprising and this was my favorite one the fans
taylor swift because those two things go together
so i thought this was really fun i enjoyed this this is really fun to see and i really
liked the being able to see some of these little notes here about just how much it went up like it's not we are tiny teeny tiny but it was cool to see the growth in terms of new audience on spotify 273% cool that's great we still need to we need a lot more growth there but it's cool to see and then the big shift fireside chat was the biggest one and i'm not surprised by that and then also kinda seeing where people watch from like germany czech republic nigeria and india as being you know right behind the united states yeah on democracies and death cults i just thought that was hilarious as the top one and then
wrapping hearing for us
and then we had 12 folks who if you are one of the 12 who have us as your top one like let us know because we'd love to know we'd love to know that you're that you're one of our our you know that we have your top podcast
know it's like mostly we know the people who are watching on youtube live right because you chat so we see your names the people who listen to the podcast version which is recorded and audio only when we when we first started out people would share a lot more because it was so much smaller like people would share but now so we have
no idea who you are no are you who are you we'd like to know let us know we
love you
so if you're if you're watching this on on spotify and you know what i should add a little poll or something or i don't know something some way to like communicate over there just to just to say hi because we appreciate you
in other videos okay hold on i think i need to show the other one first to make sure we have context okay so dwr you know pulled this one out because the fed made their announcement this week this was came right after the fed meeting they didn't they cut rates but by the amount was kind of expected point two five but they are gonna do some other things with buying back treasury bills and all this stuff so dwr shared this
an infinite amount of cash at the federal reserve an infinite amount of cash at the federal reserve an infinite amount of cash
at the federal reserve so you've probably seen this before this looks familiar right
so sayangel saw that and said hold my beer and created this one
infinite amount of cash at the federal reserve an infinite amount of cash
at the
federal reserve
it's the warplet version the angel yes
oh i think
and there is okay
and that's all we can do on that before we get copyright
it's a pirate warpee it's dance warpee so d w this is d w r for your bull market memes folder
that was just amazing absolutely amazing
do you
go ahead sure
there's no such thing as infinite anything folks i guess it just means they can print more
money printer go burr mhmm they can print more and that you know has its implications on things but that's the yeah that's the that's the joke there meets yeah
yes you should what's your favorite memecoin
bitcoin bitcoin is her favorite memecoin
bert knows he knows well bert's been bert's been making has been buying buying buying bitcoin few few things from builders this from farhouse the og bus is here ogs hop on you are the first to get a glimpse of the house we take you for a ride into the house today try it here and let us know what you think and i think you may also need to be on the list to even listen i was able to get in so you might if you previously used farhouse you probably have access so go ahead and try even if you don't wanna start your own space you can join others and we should really jump in there and play around at some point so maybe we'll do that later today this from rocketman i don't think we shared this the other day but i don't know if you've seen that rocketman got an investment do you know who he got an investment
biology yeah great that's and it makes sense i was thinking about that i'm like that's a perfect like that makes sense to me that he would be interested in that for not only the technical mechanics but also from the community focus
social networks like makes perfect sense so this is from rocketman we're launching the co build token so that's coming soon as well they're launching the co build token differently instead of an airdrop we're going to be funding people on farcaster and twitter to who do valuable work to help grow the network prior to launch work to earn if you may so this is us working to earn nfa d y o r but also if you're not using co build i think it's one of the cooler tipping mechanics and we had rocketman on when right after it launched and we probably should share that episode out again as this kinda ramps up but it's a very cool mechanic where instead of tipping the person you know a a penny or 5¢ or whatever you're buying their token so they can set up their token that they want you to buy it can be their own it could be one of the community tokens like better and it's kind of just a really cool mechanic so you're essentially not only contributing to them in terms of what they may earn from fees and things like that but you're holding their token so you can earn some upside as well so very cool alright and this is my background today so we had a new you know every once in a while somebody launches something like this this is the farcaster constellation check out my social gallery map and oops i need to move us over because you can't quite see where's my other options here you can't see everybody so i want you to be able to see everybody so this is my my map and no surprises no surprises at all here you're like right here actually chin tan surprised me a tad i was like oh i didn't expect you to be like right there
i think some of the constellation emphasized recency like i think recency because i saw some people on mine not that i don't yeah wouldn't be in my orbit but was more recent
i think you're right because like most of these are common but i noticed like you know this is an impostor doosan an impostor and that was obviously recent that's jesus

this from our guest the other day doosan doosan yesterday yesterday in rapid fire question round adrienne asked what is the one thing you wish more people understood about crypto it got my brain cooked and all i could come up with was a pretty banal answer honestly i thought it was a great answer did not even think twice about it it was a great answer but he continues on so i thought i could take another shot at it and make use of farcaster social features while they're still here they're not going anywhere i love the question but i thought about noncrypto users by default which was a mistake and i would like to revisit it from the perspective of people who are in crypto and wanted to succeed the thing i wish more people understood about crypto is linux and i don't mean the technical mumbo jumbo even though i see many parallels i mean the distribution people have a natural tendency to resist change no matter how beneficial it might be they come up with simple and valid arguments why the thing is bad you can't play games on linux you need to know the commands by heart you've got to compile all software and they can't be persuaded i've heard this is the year for linux desktop so many times why i cringe whenever i hear on chain summer and it never materialized yet linux clearly won it is everywhere and people don't even realize it and that's the key especially for crypto which is so much more polarizing than linux ever was linux didn't win by convincing every user to switch their desktop os operating system it won by becoming the silent infrastructure the core of servers android smart tvs routers supercomputers and cloud the user never had to install linux to benefit from its architecture they just started using the internet their smartphone and all the services all the modern services for crypto to truly win we need to stop fixating on the desktop moment the time when everyone suddenly gets a wallet and manages their own keys and start focusing on building the silent essential infrastructure that underpins the next gen of global services payment rails data storage crypto's success won't be a loud overnight conversation it will be a slow quiet realization that every critical piece of technology they use is now trustless permissionless on chain the thing i wish more people understood in is that crypto like linux wins by becoming essential and invisible and if you're building on top of crypto don't build great products build don't build great crypto products build great products loved that loved that so good and it made me think of privy immediately like in in all the things we were just talking about we're talking about paypal being integrated into youtube you've got privy everywhere privy being integrated into stripe and stripe launching tempo and all these things that are happening and that's something i've talked about in class since i started in 2022 january 2022 i launched my blockchain class for entrepreneurs entrepreneurship students and the thing i've said a million times is like there's gonna come a day where everyone's using crypto and just don't know it because it's gonna be the backbone of a lot of things because it's just a better technology especially for anything financial
so and especially global like if you're moving money which is that the like the we have a global connected economy so if you're moving money get it cheaper faster to do it on crypto so guess what they will right especially when like the massive payments world and finance like they're gonna look to right so it's and it's already happening yeah
it's already happening stripe's it's already happening
bank like going in you know they're starting to move move in that direction because it's inevitable not because they think they wanted to you know and you can just go back to jamie dimon on on this note like they did doesn't want still doesn't like it still does not like it still fighting but at the same rate jpmorgan's adding you know crypto everything into all the things so you know it's an the technology is inevitable regardless of what you think of your particular meme coin situation
like analogy
but yeah it was a great analogy i was like oh i didn't know where he was going with that i was like what when i started down that road i'm like what and then i yeah then i realized alright couple more things and then we're calling it for the for the weekend this from jake 1,000 worth of qr up for grabs we are $1,000 worth of qr up for grabs we are offering a special incentive to encourage participation in the ongoing qr auction to eighty one ending in twenty one hours or ending sooner it may have ended it was coming up nope got a couple more hours eighteen hours ago about three hours we'll send 1,000 split evenly to everyone who contributes to the winning bid for this auction good luck and have fun so if you're not familiar now and god i'm gonna have that same problem i can't go down to change the layout oh there we go if you're not familiar with qr this is a way for you to bid on attention within this mini app that is now also available in a lot of other places like worldcoin and and all of all the places and we're gonna talk more about this on monday as a matter of fact because jake will be joining us then and it does not wanna come up for me for some reason let me try it again it's there we go so you have the opportunity to join a auction with other people and that's what they're trying to encourage for this one and why is this not why is it being weird on okay have a bug i have a bug report jake bug report i don't know if it's farcaster or jake but bug report so anyway if you go into the qr mini app and you'll see that now i can't get back to my other setup this is so weird i can't i i'll have to show you my screen later i'm having weird things with my with streamyard right now so if you joined one of the auctions because you can join an auction you don't have to put in you know a thousand bucks you can put in a dollar and everyone who's contributes to that auction is gonna split the thousand dollars evenly so if there's fewer people better and then whoever wins the auction that becomes the qr code for the day so there's a couple groups right now vying for the title you can go check it out and see if there's any that you want to join but i think this is a cool incentive it's a really good idea yeah so good experiment get some attention on the fact that you can even join because a lot of people probably don't realize that you can join the auctions and then lastly as we mentioned jake is going to be on with us on monday for our next clankcaster spotlight and this was from jake looking forward to going on farcaster's favorite show and talking with the most prolific hosts on the protocol so thank you jake
