Snaps Everywhere, Grants Incoming, and Rish explains it all: GM Farcaster ep357

introducing the new stewards of the Clanker Ecosystem Fund (CEF): @gmfarcaster - @adrienne & @nounishprof they have been two of the most embedded people on farcaster since almost the beginning, and staying on top of everything being built here is literally their job. they'll make decisions independent from the clanker/farcaster/neynar teams. humans over algorithms means no gaming the system, just resources flowing to people actually doing the work. 20% of clanker protocol fees go back into the ecosystem via the CEF. 60% to infrastructure and taxes, 20% flexible strategic reserve (allows for buying $clanker, giving more to CEF, etc.) developers, creators, tinkerers, experimenters: if you're building here in any capacity, this is for you. more on how to apply soon.

Pigs are in the pasture, at stone barns farm in Rockefeller state park about 30 miles north of nyc. This curious cutie came over to say hello

29 Seconds of Farcaster ... What did you miss this weekend? * Snapathon, Snapfest, Snapchella ... it's all about the SNAPS. IRL Meetups to build SNAPS in LA, NYC, & SF and the SNAP vibes are high on the timeline. The most notable SNAP build is probably @mattlee 's SNAP builder @freeturtle | https://farcaster.xyz/mattlee/0xb5e9b30d * Scheduling Note: @rish will be on /gmfarcaster today around 12 NOON EST to talk SNAPS, and all things Farcaster * How about some fun, under-the-radar builds from the weekend? @anaroth bult the Farcaster Movie Index that folks seemed to enjoy https://farcaster.xyz/anaroth/0xe0a13674 | and @bfg shared Casts Vault which allows you search, tag, & organize bookmarked casts https://farcaster.xyz/bfg/0x0a649bf0 | Also @arjantupan created a Daily Spark mini app for a creative prompt a day https://farcaster.xyz/arjantupan/0x6cb4d10f ... it's fun to see less heralded builders create mini apps for themselves that others can use and enjoy s/o @neynar studio for making it possible * BETR with @burr.eth wrapped up a 100M $BETR tournament and I haven't seen the final results but I think @spaceman-ngu.eth is going to be happy after a narrow miss in March Madness .. Thanks for making The Masters BETR * Join @adrienne & @nounishprof at 11:30 AM EST for lots more news and fun and don't miss @rish joining them around Noon for all the FC updates 💜

Just built a snap that shows the Top Casts from the last 24hrs https://top-casts-snap.vercel.app

also, if you deploy a clanker for your project, and you win one of our @qrcoindotfun auctions, you will be automatically featured on clanker's website for the day i'm not sure @clanker even knows about this, but his creators set it up, and recent winners @wydeorg and @toadyhawk.eth have already taken advantage cc

Today's QR winner announcement on X got a RT from @farcaster and a quote tweet from @clanker. The winner @toadyhawk.eth himself tweeted about winning the auction, re-introduced @betrmint on X, and quickly got a RT from @base. If you are looking to drive attention to your tweet, cast, profile, token, app, or any other link on the internet, especially if you are building on Farcaster and/or Base, consider bidding to win our auction @qrcoindotfun. Prominent people are paying attention. https://qrcoin.fun/

Introducing the Farcaster Movie Index - 1 Submission per FID - 90 day lockout before changing films (makes people think about their choice) - Rate and React to films on the leaderboard - Add films to a watchlist or mark them as seen Got inspired from all the film convo's from the other week here and realize there wasn't a central place that taps into what the collective preferences of Farcaster are in terms of film https://miniapp-generator-fid-20005-260411134323188.neynar.app

Screenshot any app in the App Store and turn it into an agent in @convosmessenger Anyone wanna try this? We shipped this invite only last week.

GM and happy snapathon I am giving everyone two free snap requests from the Snap Wizard @ freeturtle How it works: tag freeturtle and describe the snap you want. The wizard will build it, post it in /snaps, and tag you. I give full credit to the requestor for the snaps they create, so you can use it to submit to the snapathon. Here's an example: @freeturtle put the above announcement in snap

important info for everyone building for farhack online: highly recommend submitting your 1st check-in by monday https://forms.gle/ukjMnc2jXrn277q29 why it matters: early feedback → sanity check your idea before it’s too late to pivot visibility → get on judges’ radar early support → we can help unblock you + point you in the right direction momentum → forces you to ship something fast teams that win usually show up early, not just at the end 👀 hackathon info: https://farhack.xyz/hackathons/farhack-online-2026

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!
