We have some difficult news to share: no more orange GIFs. Inflynce is shutting down on April 9th. This wasn't an easy decision, but it's the honest one. We built the first mindshare algorithm on Farcaster. 1.4M+ transactions processed. 7,400+ creators earned $66K+. $40K protocol revenue. Zero funding. After more than a year of building, we made the decision to close. Not because we gave up - but because we were honest enough to admit when a chapter ends. To every orange GM, every creator who earned their first onchain dollar, every founder who ran a campaign, thank you. 🧡 We left an orange stain on Farcaster and Base history. And nobody can take that away. 🧡 Full story: https://x.com/inflynce/status/2041034037247262970

The Pantheon is why I love architecture and my first visit has been one of the most emotional experiences of my life! I scored 7/7 on today's Road to /farcon-rome quiz: "The Pantheon"! 🇮🇹 🔥 14-day streak! How well do you know Rome?

the gaming angle on farcaster is so easy. besides the aforementioned, a mini app is incredibly easy to integrate. its just extra meta HTML tags so a game dev doesn't have to build for farcaster build a normal good browser game, then tack on farcaster on top it's just like an extra added bonus

fridays are for shipping updated search page, now includes mini apps!

Improved the search results section and added Mini Apps to the search results.

adding something new in your home feed -- icymi casts not everything in your feed has to be from today. icymi is built to surface good casts that are older but still worth your time. things like music, stories, recipes, good advice, art, and interesting discussions. if you come across a cast that doesn't belong, tag me. we'll be refining what gets surfaced as we go.

Interesting read from Jack: “Companies move fast or slow based on information flow. Hierarchy and middle management impede information flow. For two thousand years, from the Roman contubernium to today's global enterprises, we have had no real alternative. Eight soldiers sharing a tent needed a decanus. Eighty men needed a centurion. Five thousand needed a legate. The question was never whether you needed layers. The question was whether humans were the only option for what those layers do. They aren't anymore. Block is building what comes next.” https://x.com/jack/status/2039003879841362278?s=46&t=N80rptBytKhSU-csz4Akrg

Introducing the Clanker Ecosystem Fund (CEF) The mission of the CEF is to distribute protocol fees to creators and communities who positively contribute to the Clanker and Farcaster ecosystem $8m has bought 14% of the $CLANKER supply, yet has not proven to be an effective use of funds Sometime in the next few weeks, we'll be redirecting protocol fees back to the ecosystem, as well as using it to fund ongoing Clanker infrastructure more soon -- who's running the fund, how the splits work, and how to get involved. clank clank

📣 we’re bringing everything under one roof /farcon-rome summit is moving to the same venue as builders day → industrie fluviali. same location, two days, making the whole experience feel more cohesive and easier to navigate across both events industrie fluviali is a post-industrial space in ostiense with multiple floors, rooftop terraces, and plenty of room to talk, build, and hang. it’s super easy to get to: close to ostiense station, piramide, and testaccio. just 2 metro stops from the colosseum and if you already booked your stay near the previous venue, you’re good, the new spot is well connected and only ~2 metro stops away feels like the right move and excited for what this unlocks!

Farcaster OGs got a shoutout in today’s token dispatch for creating a certain type of non-speculative, non-extractive culture that made people want to hang out here, in this digital 3rd space https://www.thetokendispatch.com/p/the-base-residency-problem?triedRedirect=true

Cute!

Hey builders! If you have a mini app and want it to work in the base app after April 9th, here’s a quick checklist to follow: The quick gut check: does your app work in a mobile browser with a connected wallet and no Farcaster context? If yes, you're good. We covered the full scope of changes in our earlier post. Three things to check off, and where to go if you need help. 1. Register on Base.dev If you haven't already, create a project at Base.dev and fill in your app metadata. This is how the Base App surfaces your app for search and discovery. If you registered previously, your metadata has already been backfilled and you don't need to do anything here. 2. Switch to Sign-In with Ethereum The Farcaster SDK signIn method won't work in the Base App after April 9. The replacement is SIWE (Sign-In with Ethereum) using wagmi and viem. Your app authenticates through the connected wallet address instead of a Farcaster identity. This is the biggest change for most builders. The migration docs walk through the full setup with code examples. 3. Audit your Farcaster SDK usage If you're using other Farcaster SDK the migration docs include a full compatibility table with the replacement for each method. And as always you can always check environment to gate Farcaster only functionality using the isInMiniApp() hook! https://docs.base.org/mini-apps/quickstart/migrate-to-standard-web-app
