gm farcaster it is what day is this tuesday
september 22 and you are here with nounish prof and adrienne ford thirty seven minutes of farcaster news to start your day actually no twenty nine minutes of farcaster news then trivia then a little chat with saltorious about the bankr hackathon the runtime hackathon and i am bummed that we didn't have a show yesterday just so i could say the september 21 so we did miss we did miss earth
fire day that was my fault it's all good it's all good it was earth wind and fire day yesterday and i am just a little disappointed that we we didn't get a chance to celebrate live on air but you know it is what it is alright we are all live on twitter everything is great let's jump in so we are gonna have saltorious on in a little bit to chat about the runtime hackathon but this was from pan runtime runtime was an incredible event so many incredible builders from all corners of the world showed up in numbers for a week of hacking so many cool projects insightful conversations and new relationships formed this is in my opinion what separates bankr bot community from every other community in crypto at the moment real builders building real things and having a good ass time along the way so excited to chat with him about and find out who built what and i might switch my hat later so i've got it handy just in case i decide to do that that hat looks so weird on me though i put it on and i'm like mm-mm putting my better
i need a better hat i need a better hat yeah i really do the other big thing that's been going on over on twitter x was jack butcher jack butcher announced that he was doing an open edition
eight i believe is what he's calling it an open edition on x money send $8 to at jack butcher and to your eth address in the memo your transaction id is the seed for your artwork closes 8pm eastern tomorrow that was yesterday so i thought okay haven't checked out x money let me go check take a look and i started to go and it was like legal name okay date of birth so last four digits of social security number i'm like i'm out i'm done enough i realized that elon already has all my information for when the doge boys hacked the social security administration database and downloaded it all but still i don't need it all in another database but the lovely burr did get one for me which i didn't ask her to do she just volunteered and did it and i appreciated that and then i was able to just send her usdc on farcaster like a normal person so yeah there was that and also here was the numbers early info sorting everything won't be perfect but close 7,162 x accounts and 25,225 unique wallets participated doing some quick math that's over $200,000 that he made from people sending him $8 there you go so jack i'm always impressed at your experiments i guess i'm not following you oh gm farcaster is not i know i am but i was just like mm-mm not doing it not gonna do it so but it was good to like learn a little bit more about x money for a second there i'm gonna assume don't even really have to ask you this question but i'm gonna assume you didn't participate you probably wouldn't have even if it wasn't xmoney
i'm curious to see what the addition looks like i think the reason that it went crazy is we've seen this before when he did checks when he did a pepin people made a lot of money and that's what they're banking on this time we'll see this is a very different time we're in a very different moment i don't know but we'll see we'll see what happens but interesting so that was my post cool experiment but when i went to set up x money was crazy the info they wanted date of birth social security blood of firstborn just say no not worth it someone actually asked me if they really needed blood of firstborn i went that was a joke that was a joke people this from justin on related you shouldn't need to hand over your social security number date of birth and other personal info just to pay be payable online especially when it's a p two p use case cryptorail salts for this custody and settlement like duh that was the other thing that was just making me a little crazy about this but you still have no idea who you're settling with as addresses aren't human readable sure ens exists but like all domains you have no idea who's behind them quidly addresses this with an open social registry that has reputation signals attached from across multiple socials that your non crypto contacts actually use x github linkedin email etcetera permissionless on chain payments composability is a must have as we transition to the agentic web no interoperability means no coordination means no autonomy from the walled gardens and data moats of web two and thank you justin for that and for everything you're building i appreciate it moving on we have this from biology democracy is the consent of the governed in the internet age that means voting not just with your ballot but feet so if you're one of the democratic capitalists of the internet vote with your feet for new communities by joining us in singapore on october 9 this was his announcement for the latest network state conference which is coming october 9 and if you can't get oops mute that because you guys aren't gonna hear it
you're for those of you who can't get to singapore you can watch online it will be streaming i did register for the streaming and also the recordings are always available after the fact but usually there's really good speakers in the past there have been it's been interesting some folks we usually know i have no idea if these are all the people who are gonna be there but it's possible so that would be kinda cool if it is looks interesting so we i don't know about steve dan and i could do without him but let's see we'll see so anyways
if you're what i was doing by the way was doing our compilation video or our three our year three highlights we had dan on i think right after he was a speaker at network state so i was like watching clips but if you remember he was you know advertised as a speaker everyone was so excited but he just dialed in so i think a lot of people actually be in singapore
mhmm
yep and it it was interesting yeah
i think i've usually watched i think i think i've usually i think there's been a couple now and i've usually watched them even if ted was there for one of them that was two years ago i think or i'm not sure so talking about farcaster so it's it's always really interesting you know what they end up talking about so if this is something interests you you can sign up at ns.com/conference2026 and get a little luma so you get a reminder and it's free if you're just doing the online
moving on so this was blowing up over on x as well there was a woman who had posted a video about her experience with a particular gallery that went very scarily amazingly and then there was a lot more coming out about this particular gallery owner and what happened at the gallery assaults sexual harassment very unsafe conditions and what i did appreciate was a lot of the men finally speaking out because it can be very scary for the women to have to be the only ones standing out there this woman's 19 and i really appreciated that she was brave enough to share her story these links will be in the show notes you can go take a look and you know judge for yourself i'm gonna say allegedly but there's been enough corroborating evidence i would say to back up the veracity of her claims so i'll just put it that way just to legally keep us safe there but i mean it was crazy seeing how many stories came out about this particular location and what was happening there so one of the other things i kept seeing was women who had warned other women about you know make sure you're not there after 09:00 make sure this make sure that watch yourself all these kinds of things and for a lot of the guys you may not realize that this happens a lot like we warn each other about things all the time like i've been in multiple group chats with things that have happened within this industry and long before that in other situations of like look out for this look out for that don't be alone with this person there was a situation that happened where somebody i know was a moderator this was a few years ago for a panel it was a it was a conference a web three conference this part one of the people who was on the panel very well known person in tradfi who started talking about crypto was on a lot on the speaker circuit and basically you know was harassing her and very inappropriate right before they were going on stage and she had to be the moderator for this panel and she had told me about this and then a year ago one of my students started doing podcasting and was gonna be doing podcasts at a conference and this this man was gonna be there and i was able to go hey make sure you're not alone with this dude he's a shady dude i don't i wouldn't trust him i said you probably shouldn't be alone with any of these guys but also very please be on your guard around this guy and that's how a lot of this stuff gets shared that i think a lot of the guys may not realize that there's a lot of lot of group chats a lot of discussions so be safe out there
very frustrating thank you you're berserker and there's a lot of there's a lot of you know i did see a lot of men who had stepped up and said some things and i appreciated seeing that happening on the timeline because we do need those allies because a lot of times it's just not that easy for the women to step forward when especially when there's major imbalances of power and that's been this that was the situation here
any other thoughts
trust me
i know i know it was a lot anyway and you can go you know make your own conclusions take a look at everything that's out there and i'll i'll just leave it
happier happier note rosie had a first birthday happier note
so this was a night this is nice to see and rosie got a first birthday and this was going back a year to the little puppies when they were all brand new and trying to stand with crypto was the because they couldn't stand yet they're cute they're so cute and i just realized something i forgot to grab brad's thing i think i had it but i don't know where it went so let me grab let me grab the the actual farcaster news for today we don't have much there's just not that much happening right now it's still very quiet yeah yay doggo's refreshed that's what we need a palate cleanse we need a palate cleanse after after the bad stuff
yeah the this is i guess weiner alert
we need the weiner alert
go ahead there's a reason i like to covering farcaster yeah i'll just leave it like that i'll just
yeah i i know i know i felt it was important to just mention it but yeah
i get it this from bradq twenty nine seconds of farcaster what did you miss this weekend have you seen the first farfeld clip kenji quest may have found a new gig with his fc recap video and now this so he did a seinfeld but it's farcaster and it was pretty funny cameron is teasing some hope for those who miss bracci we talked about that a little bit last week still waiting for that to launch you can still mint the gm farcaster third birthday recap video yes you can and and then just all about today's show and that's it again not much happening we're still kinda waiting on whoever the new owners are to finally show their show their face so just hold tight folks hold tight we do we do have an update you've been busy warpie over on on twitter can now answer questions here on x ask me what was said on any gm farcaster episode about a guest a topic a hot take and i'll check the transcripts and answers more skills coming soon so you are you're busy building
yes i've it's it's september kids are back in school i took august off for all sorts of travels and i'm finally able to catch up on all the things that have been on my to do list since july yeah warpie escaped so and by the way now i also added the booking skill so warpie has feature parity between farcaster and twitter awesome kind of yeah
so if you want to book a shout out on this show and you're over on twitter and you're not on farcaster you can now ask gm warpie how to do that and be able to book a shout out
as well sorry to whoever's named warpie on twitter because people tag them and ask sorry about that it's gm warpie sorry
it's g m warpee over on twitter yeah sorry sorry whoever you are warpie
and that's my background in case you don't know you might think we were i think we were one of the first to take the c c zero warp was before warplet existed as the and that's what warpy looks like
that is warpy he's cute he's very cute
he is he's a horrible little monster he's the he's the nightmares of linda moving on we have this from links a little pencil emoji i created a little fc client on my website which grabs any of my casts which start with a pencil emoji this allows me to curate quick thoughts on my site without having to redeploy it's the static site you can see it running here you can go take a look at the website if you want to check it out was fairly straightforward using hypersnap's docs i was going to use a channel for this but paying $25 for usdc for this functionality seemed a bit much seems like anyone with a personal channel could do the same though so that's interesting if you wanted to curate things to your channel i guess using these docs you could do that as well i'm just noticing the time and i wanna make sure i have my my trivia alarm set just to make sure we're ready
yep i know i'm giving my alarm at five minutes just to make sure we don't miss it and you'll hear my little alarm go off my trivia alarm this from alaskan magpie magpie's shiny things x open server serve ai launches at 9am pst on september 30 i'm excited to make this official because it lines up directly with what i built this studio to do create browser native worlds where humans and ai agents can actually participate together not a chatbot stapled into a game but agents with ships jobs goals economies and real things to do alongside you waypoint is the mmo side of that vision fableboy is the arcade side around them is a growing ecosystem of games partner experiences events collectibles quests experiments that can all be accessed instantly from a browser openserve's agent ecosystem fits naturally into that direction ai gets much more compelling when it has actual worlds to act inside games get much more interesting when agents become real participants instead of background tools that's a big part of what i'm what i'm building shiny things around and i think this partnership can push that vision forward incredible way so we had alaskan magpie on a little while ago talking about fableboy and what he was building and looks pretty amazing so excited to see it finally launch so very cool go check that out on the thirtieth and i'm sure we'll talk about it again here was kenjiquest's farfelt the reply and it's all about wow wow so it's very funny you'll hear george and we're not we're not gonna play it and hopefully not gonna get copyright noted but you can go check it out on kenjiquest's site but it's pretty funny because they're talking about it get copyrighted
don't know i'm just a little nervous can't a little nervous about certain things that's why i'm just putting out the sound i'm not putting the sound on usually the sound is the issue with youtube so yeah just trying to make sure not usually visuals
was very funny so go check it out on kenjiquest's profile and the link will be in the show notes as well one last thing before we talk about trivia is this from vitalik western fantasy movie there are heroes there are villains japanese fantasy movie there are no full villains there are multiple people entities agreed by challenging circumstances and exercising understandable but flawed thinking in an ideal world you would get to mutual understanding and peace but unfortunately right in that moment they are attacking each other and attacking you and if you care about protecting your friends you have to at least temporarily fight them in my opinion the real world is a mix of two and wisdom is knowing which scenario you're in and which character you're encountering okay vitalik with deep thoughts by vitalik
it's true it's true heroes and villains not not too difficult alright i want to pull up this as its own so hopefully i can share it with audio alright hold on one second i'm gonna get this ready i'm hoping i can share the there's a way you can play the trivia like it'll it's supposed to like have the things being read read to you so i'm hoping that's gonna work but let's see if i can get the lobby up here alright there we go
oh quiet
mookie's awake alright so let me put this down for a second upcoming lobby trivia schedule monday well today is gonna be farcaster facts yesterday was heroes and that was all over the place sometimes it was superheroes and sometimes it was richard nixon mookie quiet i think they're they're doing something right outside the door yeah richard nixon just a note not a hero don't know why the seventies trivia nixon was an answer so today we're doing farcaster facts oh there is my that is my little reminder and the booster prizes will be in usdc and some other great surprises with us ridiculous laws by countries will be i guess i guess that's gonna be tomorrow because hero by decade was monday formidable foes by decade also brad and then popular foods by decade on saturday so that's the schedule for this week and we are going to let me pull this back up not the wallet what am i no this not the wallet hold on i lost it i lost it
i wanna put it on the screen but i'm actually gonna play on my phone because it's easier to play on your phone so we're gonna jump in if you are watching right now i'd recommend you go jump on to farcaster go into the lobby mini app and join the game i am gonna join the game over here because i just think it'll work better for me and then you won't see my answers because i don't want you guys cheating not that i know if i'm gonna do very well on this one we'll see this is gonna be talking token oh totally tokens for this particular one so if you know tokens that have have some kind of farcaster connection you're gonna like this one so hopefully it won't show my answers on the screen it might i'm not sure i've never tried it this way before we're gonna see you can also chat there's a little chat go and say gm whatever i find it difficult to chat and play at the same time but i usually chat before and after so if you scroll down you'll see oops can i scroll down nope i can't i can't on here there we go so there's a little chat you'll see the prize pool we got a dollar 50 usdc it looks so much better when it's in better and you're getting like 500,000 even though it's probably less it's actually less usdc second and third you've got 10 questions one at a time fifteen seconds to answer each there's ten seconds between questions it will auto advance occasionally
a little glitch i've had times where like it doesn't advance and then you miss the chance to answer it does happen don't don't forget most correct wins ties split the prize you can change your answer until the clock hits zero and then it'll say you can't change your answer anymore nobody gets eliminated you can play all 10 so even if you get one wrong you can keep going here's the current leaderboard i have fallen way behind there was a time where i was ruling this leaderboard but brad is bradq currently at the top there then gina and then mindy i have fallen the queen has fallen but once upon a time i was at the top of that leaderboard alright so get ready everyone we got a minute thirty five seconds or a minute forty seven on my phone that's weird the numbers are different my phone has a longer that's weird
yeah that's weird little disparaging disparaging little disparity yeah one twenty nine weird so anyways get ready and this one's supposed to be all about tokens burr any other thoughts in the chats
oh yeah and they never yeah bird actually specifically crafted these ones usually they're using ai that creates the questions so they often play but i guess plants hasn't seen this so alright yeah i am as well on my phone sigwater so we don't know what's going on there but it's gonna be fun it's gonna be fun everybody it's gonna be fun alright there's 10 questions there are 10 questions and it goes fast it goes very fast so get ready this is saying like twenty two seconds but it's saying like thirty four on my phone so we'll see what happens because that's interesting so i don't know if we're gonna see it on the screen up here first
should i not i kinda wanted to just so that people would see it i was actually gonna do the sound but i don't see the sound on this one so maybe not

read it
it's too small but you're you can see the schedule also in the mini app so today's schedule is hold on we've got history of farcaster oh most likely two at 1pm this is all farcast related history of farcaster at 2pm dramady i'm really curious what that's gonna be so that should be fun at three you had to be there at four channeling channels at five totally tokens two at six most likely two two so usually there's a whole another round same topic different questions so that covering different time zones so then most likely two two history of farcaster two dramedy two you had to be there two channeling channels two so that is gonna be a lot of fun going up until 11pm eastern tonight so set your set your timer hold on while i do so i gotta set my timer i just moved my timer up and i put it to like fifty eight whatever like 12:58pm and then it'll give me a two minute warning and you also if you're following the lobby app it'll give you a notification as well so what did you think that was your first time playing trivia
yeah i'm forget the app i'm just so annoyed i got one wrong which one did you get wrong this
i get i get very annoyed i get very annoyed at myself when i get things wrong like very annoyed especially on things that i
points but it wasn't tipping
and then there was okay
yeah
yeah yeah because people were crazy yeah so there was points there was farts
yeah farcoin or was it farcoin or farts farx that was bill z mhmm okay shut up and then degen came after that points was on main net i think bill c was on was he on i think he was on base yeah i think that one was on base
the one i got wrong was about doing daily tasks and earning tokens and i had daw i never used daw myself i remember when people were doing it and then i was like i think that's what better is like with the wheel and everything so like so then i
i see
it doesn't work that way
yeah if there's a dog i i think farcaster dogs is you know the answer's always bert but you know we do have a few other dogs who show up on the timeline like rosie and mookie occasionally mookie doesn't wanna be famous i told you
who's waffles there was a waffles
i don't
yeah most likely to bark during jim farcaster that would be mookie yes yes we're just waiting for saltorious if you wanna shoot him
to come on in yeah tell him to come on in and trivia is it's really fun honestly it's really fun and we have a lot of the same people play there's a crew that plays like almost every time i've been playing a little less than i was but i'll i'll jump in when i can and it's a nice little break i mean literally what that took us five minutes so it's a great little like even if you're in the middle of whatever it's an easy quick little break and even when like i've had times when they've done like science and stuff where i'm like there was one that was discoveries it was the hardest trivia like that we've ever had and i just learned stuff it was like kept getting everything wrong but i was like oh i learned something today that was fun but my favorite thing yesterday was the heroes one the nineteen seventies heroes nixon was one of the answers and i'm like no no fun fast and friendly exactly exactly and they've really done such a good job of building this like plants and burr you guys have crushed it in terms of just how well it works it's just pretty seamless there's occasionally some glitchy things that'll happen but like the fact that it just can run without them having to do anything once they set it it's like a set it and forget it and it just keeps running it's great and i like that they have different
a right
right yeah that was a whole production it was really fun and i loved doing it but you had to it was only one yeah you had to be there at a certain time you had to be live it but it was really fun and then that one was different because if you got one wrong you were out that was the other thing like
oh and look this is i know it's type of it's the clanker fun clanker ecosystem fund grant hard at work so i love seeing that too
yeah they've i did
get a message we did get a message a few days ago from someone in our contact form oh asking about cef eligibility this is someone who is clearly not on farcaster they did not know i had to break the news yep and then i was like maybe i should update the website
oh yeah we probably should put a note on there that says no longer i'd
but you can go check out you know previous grant winners and i will say that burr implants have done an amazing job using their cef grant i felt i feel so there's certain ones i feel really good about i wish we had had an opportunity to actually re up them again you know like them and kenny like there there's certain ones who just absolutely crushed it in terms of their visibility of what how they were using it and it's unfortunate we didn't get a chance to like even double down on some of yeah yeah or triple down but we appreciate it
it's unfortunate yeah the trivia has been really fun you also can vote on and and suggest topics i'm waiting for friends trivia by the way burr and plants i know that brad suggested it but brad i am going to kick your absolute butt in friends trivia just i'm telling you right now i'm telling you right now i've seen every episode about a 100 times and i sleep i go to sleep with it on
when when mongolian trivia
adrienne would like to know
no chance fighting words fighting words dude you have no idea you have no idea what you're talking about like i will crush you this is gonna be a battle this is gonna be a battle it's just gonna be me and brad and the rest of you are just gonna have to sit back and watch and hope for third but i'm i'm any let's go anytime next week maybe like tuesday next week i got nothing going on
let's do it it's funny like i have college friends that would probably dominate a french trivia but i can't you know like the venn diagram of them and farcaster doesn't intersect
so so do i brad so do i i know every line have you been to the friends experience in new york city it's really fun
to two years ago it was fun
was it you warner brothers studio in la like was it warner brothers it must be like to see like the the stage or whatever like they're back door backstage tour so to see like the friend set and stuff
oh that's cool and burr owns all the dvds
oh oh oh i think we're gonna have to have a whole other thing a little team there's no way there's absolutely no way yes we will bet each other i will i will take that bet any day of the week i actually won a friend's trivia on a cruise once like where i got every single question right and no one was anywhere like close i think like i think there was 15 questions or something and like the next closest person was like eight
yeah that would be fun a little prediction yes a little prediction would be fun for who who's gonna get french trivia right we're doing monday right next week we have monday as our day so let's do tuesday so i can just play trivia all day okay friends trivia all day bravo that'd be funny
that's funny alright i see saltorious is here and we're gonna bring him on up welcome welcome we're so glad to have you here hello hello
thank you thank you for the invite
we're so glad to have you here yes we can hear you great and just to just to remind folks we showed this at the beginning of the show but we wanted to share i'll share this again this was from saltorious runtime it was an incredible event so many incredible builders from all corners of the world showed up in numbers for a week of hacking so many cool projects insightful conversations and new relationships form this in my opinion separates the bankr bot community from every other community in crypto at the moment real builders building real things having a good ass time along the way we also had this from igor wow hundreds of builders irl and online founders flew in from norway scotland and france to build with us huge shout out to everyone who pushed the project across finish line and submitted this was a few hours before the time was up and then this was a little video you guys have posted and i don't have the sound going but there you can see
there's more more content to come there's
a amazing
dedicated content guy the whole week so it's gonna be tons of
oh good video
so we
no we worked with so we partnered with a company called propaganda run by bobby takar for the whole event so they they were kind of our partner he he's like the grand master event planner so he's got a whole content team that he works with and had a or in house and and
oh amazing
very special
cool because this video was great and then i did see one other thing that i wanted to ask you about as well this was from abraham over at the splits team if you're building on bankr bot come check out what we're building for you at zora x splits fee claims auto swaps revenue processing accounting and shared wallets and this was in response to your post about have seen this at least twice so i'd like to make a psa to bankr bot devs if you're implementing a fee recipient contract to manage fees for your project you 1000% need to implement functions that let you change the fee recipient and handle claim tokens alternatively use zero x splits abram and team are awesome and have a bunch of implementations specifically for this use case and we love the splits team so we will shout them out any opportunity
but yeah no if i could just echo that psa for anybody building honestly in the better community or otherwise study the contracts that you're implementing i've seen that this is i'm sure i'll see more of this but people who are running maybe it's a any type of business and and funding it with tokens or funding it with fees from tokens or dows or anything of the sort where you have a contract that's handling all of the funds please read the implementation for bankr specifically implements software contracts where there is a very specific transfer fee recipient function to if for any reason you need to do that also keep in mind that like if you're accepting wet or any erc any other erc 20 token into your contract if they aren't like the special type of like i can't remember exactly what it's called it's like this erc 20 like variant that it it gives the ability to transfer on an event not all erc tokens implement that so if you get fee tokens pushed to your contract and there's no way to do anything with them like you have to define the contract address and get all the transfer from or transfer function on that on that contract address to actually move the tokens out of your secured wallet if you're rolling your own contracts and you don't think about that stuff you could end up in a situation where you have like tens of thousands of dollars sometimes
and you can't get to it yeah
you can't get or you need to like jump through roofs or like try to try to get the money so splits is sick because one they thought of all that and they and also they are super responsive as far as like if you do run into any sort of problems abrams and the rest of the team is super super quick to to help and they have built their contracts in such a way where they can add modularity on top of it really easily and really quickly so i would say if you're not like really thinking about that stuff just use splits
and we do need to get splits on here we talked about having them come on to chat adrienne and we just didn't get it done i think because the summer happened and we got distracted but we do need to get them on to chat because they're just amazing they're just such an amazing team yeah so tell us about the hackathon like what what kind of things were you seeing like what were you excited about how did it go all that kind of stuff
yeah so i mean i guess overall it went really really well it was so people flew in from all over we had devs from france come in devs from scotland he's thinking of the firm but a couple of devs from south america
oh i thought i saw jeff in this picture
okay oh yeah
it wasn't
oh yeah he's he's gone in the fresh suit i told him he couldn't i i told him he couldn't pitch unless he's wearing the suit so
that's funny i saw i was looking at this picture i i grabbed it from i think it was your post and i looked and i went i think that's the i think that's firm jeff but i was like well maybe not he wouldn't have come over for this he did that's fine
no no he did he he made a point and and i'm glad he did because his presentation was really really good but yeah no the whole week was was awesome started off at started off on monday where we had like a little welcome welcome event where i got to speak to a bunch of people who who were considering building within the bankr ecosystem played some paddle ball on tuesday that was a fun new experience when i blew out at least like three shirts yeah yeah a little bit
like farcon nyc once
yeah exactly exactly wednesday was a coworking day at the clanker based office like 70 people showed up nice and what was interesting about that day in particular was a lot of the people who came through like we had we had a bunch of crazy sponsors rockbot defender to flash who showed up in numbers at every single event because flash tv is awesome who else yeah propaganda obviously is one of the sponsors but we had a lot of people come into these events who were familiar with the sponsors but not so familiar with bankr and so getting it being able to like introduce them to this primitive of hey if you need if you have a good idea and you feel like you can raise from the market then it's the best to do it so getting to introduce a lot of people to that it was was pretty pretty special and pretty impactful and then on the and then thursday you know some more happy hours get together as to what have you and then saturday the day of the actual event it was and
were people like hacking throughout the week while all these other things were going on
yeah i mean there there was a there were weren't many stipulations around how people hack it's actually a private room that just opened up
he's moving zora is in a co he's in a coworking space i got a no it's funny me he said he was looking
you know what's funny about this coworking space too i've seen four people from far like two or three two or three
oops oh oh no
oh got loose guys
i hear you okay there you are that was yeah your connection kinda maybe dropped a little bit oh there we go okay now you're normal
there we go
no what's funny about this coworkers face to say that
we're losing your connection just a little bit
like three people
maybe open your door a little i think your i think your internet connection dropped a little bit in the room in the private room
yep we lost him he went in the private room i think what he was saying is he's seeing a few people from farcaster in the in the yeah we lost
you we lost you in the private room
yep you were better out here we can now we see you again that's so funny
like that's not
helpful like so two or three people from farcaster in this in this co organization so it it cool because some of them saw last week at the hack who came through the hack like jay chan he's building a very very cool computer use agent he's here so it was very funny just to like come across him but sorry i think i i think you broke up when you were like asking questions
yeah you went in you went in a little room and then we lost so yeah so who else tell us a little bit about what were some of the projects that you're seeing that you thought were really interesting and like what were people how are people using bankr in relation to it is it just for raising are they doing are there any projects where that are in you know building on top of bankr like what's what are you seeing out there
yeah yeah i think it's like a pretty healthy split so like there there's for sure there's for sure people who are building and using like bankr as like the attention and distribution surface area for their idea but i think like one of the cooler ones is
there's a like anyway ruminations from quotient from quotient has a very cool idea around using bankr projects treasuries to to basically be managed by by the two agents
so you would take the fees that your project
oh that
we hear you we hear you can you see us we hear you
so yeah ruminate yeah
okay cool
ruminations has a very cool had a very cool project submission where it's for a banker project specifically where you can manage the your treasury with the queue agent so you could take the fees that are generated from your project get that get put into a vault and then queue manages them and then any money that queue makes sort of funnels back into buying back your token
i thought that was very agent yeah like so the queue agent would use would then use the prediction markets as well to maybe increase the funds is that what you mean oh wow that's interesting
no the the new agent yeah would basically trade on the signals that it
oh would trade on the signals yeah
and use a using the project's treasury as as capital yeah so very cool i guess a lot of cool submissions around vaults and agentic trading but those those kind of use bankr as more of like an infrastructure layer so using the llm gateway for any of the agentic stuff and then obviously tying in the token to like access or usage of the platform there's a lot of submissions around rwas and what happens when trading closes for the week so the idea that you know you buy into these rwa positions and then on a saturday or on the friday a market close between that then and the monday there's this big divergence between the on chain and off chain price so how do you protect people who are like borrowing and lending mhmm with those assets how do you protect people who have open positions with those assets there are quite a few submissions around that and then i think the biggest category as far as like the like bankr definitive like trading us side of it as it or agent stuff was like this idea of having like trusted agents and like having trust boundaries between different agents so like this is probably i don't think this is as talked about as it probably should be but like you can trick an agent to do like kind of a sure like if you if you have like an agent that has like access to tens of thousands of dollars and there's no guardrails around it you can trick it into giving you all of those $10,000 so like i've quite a few projects around like making sure that the that there is a deterministic trust layer between agent a and agent b or a swarm of agents in the network so that that doesn't happen to you and as as more people like give agents money i think like this category specifically will be like put to the forefront put to the forefront like a lot so i would say that's like was another like pretty big category of project submissions that actually igor and i are going through right now that's why we're the code oh cool but but and then so that was
my yeah that was my other question it's like you guys haven't announced any winners or anything like that yet right
no the plan is for by the end of today to have the winners announced
okay great
there's a 101 project submissions wow and all of the all of them all of them deserve to have as much scrutiny as the next scrutiny in a good way as far as like attention
so we're going through the list very carefully together today and then by the end of the day we will have we will have the winners of the 20 k from bankr and then the assorted 10 k from the other from the other sponsors that we're gonna get
very cool yeah because i was i kept checking just to see so we could share it but we'll make sure to share it on thursday when we have our
our actual ping adrienne i'll i'll ping adrienne as soon as it's all set
yeah we wanna make sure we we highlight everybody and and check i wanna check out the projects too and just see what people built because i think it's really cool it sounds like there's some cool ones
think even for the people who not get a cash prize we're gonna be talking with every single one of them i think you know most of the people who showed up submitted legitimately have like good good things that they're building on in fact i i met i met a dude who's building a he was building a wallet to stable coin application for his rabbit m one device like you know the little personal like ai devices they were selling yeah like two that were like popular two years ago he created a really really slick app to basically go through your crypto wallet and auto sell things that either you hadn't touched in a while or maybe they were like going if you had some algorithm that like figured out what the most optimal things to sell were and then put them on your statement card when you needed them and then this morning i saw that what what's the let me let me look at the link this morning i saw some big ass companies doing the same thing so i messaged them i was like hey but you're you're on the right track you're on the right track alright but but i think the thing with i think the thing with like you know i i i if you're a small solo dev building
that'll inevitably happen to you where like you have a novel idea and then you see this well funded shop come in and be able to hit and like basically do your idea but i think the the there there's still advantages that you have as a solo dev especially working with agents above above somebody like that you're closer to the people with the actual problem
i just realized i had to switch my hat
for as
oh yeah i forgot to switch my hat
please represent please represent but yeah you have you have a there there are a set of advantages that might not be super evident on the surface but like you know you had you wait your way you have more of a a pulse as far as like what people actually want than this team of like 30 50 a 100 people who like
oh he froze
maybe just have the job because they like got good good grades in school and like don't really get
we're losing you a little bit there
the problem that's my
we need better wi fi in the coworking space oh no we lost him again i wanted to hear that last thing he said too he's heard something about school
hopefully we get him back in the meantime really quick
burr just noted this all chatters of today will receive a dollar bet to use in the lobby so there you go very cool hopefully we get him back this is super interesting though i'm really excited to see oh there he is he's back we missed the very last thing you said i heard something about school and then we we lost you
was the last thing you said saltorious
i was basically saying like so like the the the rabbit m one device example with the guy who i was talking and then it seemed like ray doing something similar i think like there's like as a solo dev you're gonna run into that right like you're gonna run into you have an up
budget for something and then you
see on twitter that like some of the ads companies do something in the same way i think there is an inherent there is some inherent advantages to being a solo dev working on something similar i
can move faster
the i yeah you can move way faster and you have and you almost every time have a better sense of like what people actually like right you have a better sense of like the the pulse and like the touch of like the exact community that you're trying to get to and like that's sort of like what we're doing at bankr it's like getting in front of those people who are like small solo solo doesn't amplifying their reach and amplifying their distribution so they can have you know just as good good of a chance as somebody who is well funded and well capitalized because i've been in the space for a while and then i've also worked at very i worked at goldman sachs for a while and like the way that the the way that large companies operate like you would think it's you know a 100 of the smartest people in the world like in a lot of times so like so like you know that's just my 2¢
cents especially not in this particular when you're talking about especially the intersection of crypto and ai i would go with the smaller the smaller firms the smaller devs because they are gonna they're gonna move faster they're gonna they're gonna have a close just like you said they're gonna have a better sense of what people really want because they're actually using it whereas the larger companies are playing a little bit of catch up and probably don't have as much experience in this space at all so
and and
it's gonna be safe and i also think that like there's this the only like the the principal go to market strategy right now is like how big can you get on social media like how how viral can you go and like i think we've seen time and time again that like a trend is fun until like a big company gets involved and then it's over yeah like the the fly brain thing like it was like super fun for like a week everybody was like torturing their flies and everybody was like like putting putting their flies into like this thing and shit like their digital device and shaking it up and seeing what the neurons did and then like companies started getting involved in like oh trade like with my fly brain it's just like so
there's very few big companies who do the intern thing well occasionally exactly but we've seen it over the years like we when they do it well they do it really well but
when they do it well
they do it well but 99% of them don't do it well so yeah we know that yeah for sure but this is really exciting and i need to actually reach out to deployer because i want to try in this time around with my my class starts in mid october and i usually give them some funds to play with and i wanna try and get them access to bankr this time around and do a little bit more with bankr yeah so i
gotta recheck definitely can definitely put you in touch but you and i could probably help you out as well
okay so alright maybe i'll just i'll just chat with you guys and we'll go from there because they yeah because it's this i feel like it's it's moved along far enough like we i always end up talking about it the past couple semesters but i feel like this time we can do a little bit more and we also launched a minor so we're gonna have a defy class that starts next semester oh really i just do like an intro class where we get a little bit of everything and i introduce them but then we're gonna go deeper starting next semester so starting in the spring so yeah love it so it's we're we're that finally just happened it just got approved
i wish i wish i were younger so i could take your class
it's fun it's fun you would know everything though you'd be bored you'd be so bored but it i actually had the other professor is now gonna start teaching some of this actually sat into my class last semester and he basically comes from like a bitcoin background and mining so he didn't know yeah anything about like ether you know like there was a whole part of it that he knew very little about like yeah he didn't know he didn't know the trenches at all so like we we dive into and i've always like launched a token the past couple semesters where we've used the fees to actually fund wallets for the students so that we can yeah so that we can give them i i want them to actually play with stuff learn how to swap learn how to do things yeah let's yeah so we do all that
let me know when
you can
do that i think i think
and i'd love for you guys to even come in maybe you and igor jump in the class zoom in and and talk about bankr and and like you know talk about what you're seeing like things like this like talking about the hackathon and what you're seeing people build i think is really interesting
yeah i'd love that because these are entrepreneurship students too they're not software engineers so they're coming at from a from a like perspective of like how to build on top of things and understand and i usually get a couple finance students too who pop in there so but yeah anyway adrienne any questions for saltorious while we
not really but outside of i guess hackathon saltorious you've with bankr a few months has it been few months
it's been so june 10 was the day was the official start day so it feels
really good
summer it's been going incredible i mean i you know they say like a month in crypto is like a year in
my life so you've been there like three years yeah
three years right so so that it definitely feels like that but honestly it's been it's been so cool to one have the be able to talk and like meet all of the amazing developers within none of the base ecosystem but now the robinhood ecosystem and just like seeing all of the the cool stuff that people are building then number two i think is like the impact that that we that we've been able to have on like some really legitimate impact there's one that really comes to mind there's a fellow who was running this this platform called cloud memory yeah which is basically a shared memory layer for all of your agents and i think this is public so i think he'd mind me sharing but he was like living in his car for like a little bit like he was like oh down on his luck and like he basically had got please road someone launched a token for him and he got like a couple thousand dollars in fees which was able to like help him get into like an airbnb for a month and then he was able to like grind his project for a month and then like all of a sudden now he's got 33,000 you know weekly active users nine a 100,000 weekly active users he's got like 40 k in the bank from real product revenue that he got so like that that's like where we sit right like the pre seed you need some kick start to just get go you need to go from zero you need to just go from zero to one you need if and if you're you know willing to be aligned with crypto then it can be very very beneficial for me not only from like a funding standpoint but from a distribution and attention standpoint and that's really like the two things and then the two things that really are the most elusive right like especially nowadays where the cost of producing software has essentially gone down to zero the whole thing is like how much attention and what kind of community community can i can i build around like what i'm trying to do so i i think the bigger the bigger part for me has been like the impacts and then also talking to all these communities deaf communities and then a little bit selfishly you know as as devrel i feel like i should know what the experience is like for building in the bankr ecosystem so i have my own project which i've been hacking on from you know a little while ago but it also got please road so i got to experience the whole the whole arc of like building in public and then someone finding it and launching a token for me and then having to manage that token and then thinking about okay how can i like best use this token use this token and find token market fit and product market fit and then take those lessons in part pass them on to other builders in the bankr ecosystem so that's been really cool too yeah it's just the whole awesome been the same role
we miss
not among not among traders still among traders among traders sadly i it's i mean it's still up but i i i thought it was kinda it's kinda hard to translate that into like not a mini app yeah this new this and and i haven't been as vocal about this new project but it's called harness it is a private ai assistant but the ux is completely different so the ux instead of being like a separate chat window it's a little hip thing that sits on top of everything you do my whole thing was i hate the fact that i have 15 quads quad or chat gbt tabs open along with like 30 other tabs with like the actual work i'm doing i just want my ai companion at least in the browser to be like on top of everything and super accessible and then on top of that it's screen aware so you can see everything that i'm doing and then it's integrated with it's integrated with a bunch of other agents so it's kinda like an agent aggregator where as far as like you can bring in the banker agent you can bring in queue the question agent you can bring in you can bring in other agents that do very specialized things and have them all share a context layer and then you connect it to like your quad code you can connect it to your codex you can connect it to your pie so it's like this central this this aggregator almost of like all of your agent activities that you can then delegate work out to so yeah i mean that that that project in and of itself kinda started as like a oh can i build it and then it turned into a a whirlwind of me fine tuning vision models to be able to like parse what the actual screen data is more effectively figuring out how i can run very very tiny models over transformers js so that all of the screen capture and embedding information stays local and private to you same thing with like the memory what the memories your agent makes the chats that get stored everything lives on your browser so the whole idea of like these massive companies essentially knowing everything about you is that does not have to be the future that we are signing up for when we are handing over our lives to these ai agents and then folding in folding in like a better ux or at least what i think is a better ux for interacting with these agents cool thing i'm working on is an extension that lets you like point and click on any elements in your browser cool and then prompt prompt right from there and you can pass that context onto your coding agent yeah and then and then folding in in the crypto side of it so like that could exist completely as like a web to you like a you know regular ai
very cool
but but the crypto element is like making the funding sustainable so with all the fees that were generated from a harness token i bought a bunch of dm and i bought a bunch of cat middle which are inference generating assets and the that inference goes to subsidizing people who use the platform and the idea is to take revenue and treasury assets to grow the dm and cap u balances along with other things that generate real revenue to go and buy more inference assets and then sell the excess on surplus intelligence which is another banker project so like all of this experimenting that i'm doing is like for my product but then i'm like taking those lessons and i'm like oh you should do this because it worked for me or you should do that or you should you should not do that because it didn't work for me
and is d dm the one that's through venice
through venice
yeah okay yeah cool i have not been doing enough with that i just have my stuff staked and i haven't done anything with the dm but i have my vvv
still mean
there that's a
dm almost dm hit like 2,400 you're you're chilling crazy crazy
the vvv i mean all i did was stake my airdrop okay unbelievable unbelievable like crazy unbelievable
much so very much so
like that has probably been the best airdrop well no sorry degen then this sorry isaac i am wrong still degen but also this was like crazy
i was actually so
upset yeah
i'm so upset i wasn't on farcaster for degen days all i hear is that was the best time ever oh my god bro that
was the best airdrop
i was like i was like three months too late
yeah that was definitely the definitely the best but i mean like venice has been crazy for like the the just amazing how how it took off
but i haven't like really like focused on dm as much anyway very cool to see all the stuff you're building that's amazing yeah and i know and it's really cool to see like you and igor i see you both like you know doing all the stuff and it's really it's it's cool to see the farcasters you know out out in the wild doing things
it's really cool
yeah i mean i mean it's been it's it's it's honestly made this whole like transition from like later to backdoor super easy just because you and i eeyore and i have such a good relationship
awesome
try to get together at least twice a week to hack on hack on some stuff in this coworking space and we're gonna try to one thing that we're really gonna try to do is there's a fellow who another really good hackathon submission this fellow who's working on a an app called lolo which is like a community building app i think it's community building but like community like organizing application for new york city we wanna get a bunch of the builders who are in new york to you know once a week twice a week just come through and chat with us
cool hang out awesome very cool alright this has been awesome i'm so glad you took the time i know you have to go look through the hundred hundred and one submissions and
pick your pick your winners i know you got work to do i'm definitely gonna reach out you and igor before my my class starts like in mid october so i'll reach out in the like probably later this week and and set up a time to chat
