refresh refresh and we are live gm farcaster tell him to refresh okay refresh let me start again hold on
it's okay it's okay
it's developer refresh refresh gm farcaster it is wednesday february 7th it was in january and you're here with fid 5818 and fid 4167 i'm just kidding now anishproff and adrianne
wow i know i i just i had to do it i was thinking about it all night i just thought it was hilarious it's no it's just us and we don't care about your fid because you know what your fid does not equal your worth we just wanna remind you of that psa that's right but good morning adrienne i love your background by the way can we talk about these backgrounds real quick
yeah let's talk about the backgrounds and let's just apologize to our dedicated livestream audience no sorry who comes in early for the chat we literally love you guys and the reason we are 60 seconds late is because the show is getting harder and harder to produce because we're pulling all the links we wanna talk about we're gathering all the backgrounds i have 3 virtual backgrounds i need to cycle through today
she's gonna switch she's gonna switch out as we go
so if you're looking this is art i'm gonna i'm i'm doing my dance to move this is art by tinyrainboot and i just thought it was stunning she's a digital artist she shared it in farcast herr this week we were kinda doing a little reintroductions thread and sharing what we're working on and it popped up in my feed and i just thought it was so beautiful and i just also just felt like it had a lot of far caster vibes to it it was very purple and
and mine is the weekly mint with warps by far out by user stein.eth and it's beautiful and they just kinda they coordinate so well so we just had to we had to call we had to get coordinated so just give us a break i heard there was complaints to the manager calm down karen's calm down at the chat we should put we should put the comment complaint to do a fee he'll take care of you anyway thank you all for being with us it's it's been a crazy week so i literally we were trying to organize things in the way that made sense and it was just it was getting tricky so we're gonna start with yeah we got some we got some dao we got some big old dao which is daily active users for those of you who are new q dao would be quality daily active users but right now we have dao for sure yeah the dao tbd but we have
record dao
record dao and it keeps going up and actually this is old this is an old one i just realized it's that one's the 45,000 that i'm showing we're actually up to like 61 or something yesterday and it's probably even more i because i haven't got the latest one
so i don't know if you saw dan said yesterday's active users yes in a single day more than monthly active users of january
mhmm
pretty good yeah that's yearly more than yearly active users for all of 2023 what
i'm showing that on the screen right now yep crazy so with that who are having some feelings this can be a feelings check-in sorry voice club just kidding i was like i'm having some feelings and everyone's having feelings so to the ogs just we're gonna take a breath we're just gonna take a breath for a minute if you're rocking an fid under i'm just kidding i'm not going there just kidding but take a breath like we we can we can do this this is you know it's it's gonna be a good thing in the long run but we just have a little adjustment period and if you're new and totally confused as to why you're even here like it's okay also take a breath it's okay like it's we're we're we're learning it's okay but i've been i've been trying to really welcome folks who i'm excited to see and one of those folks actually let me point this out yesterday was the queen is here oh my god i freak i freaked out betty the queen of dead fellas is here she's now over here and i was trying to get her to 400 asap so follow betty she is the founder of deadfellas along with her her partner sykes and i was excited to welcome her to farcast her and i was warping liberally you know how dan said like liberally well i'm warping liberally to those who i want to encourage to stick around so that because they don't they don't know what warps are they don't know how to get them they don't know what's going on so we are gonna do some explainer videos and things like that and try to help you out but there's a lot of great ogs who are really trying to help those who are coming in and onboard and i was warping to betty and ex lawyer showed up and brian brinkman incredible incredible artist who i adore so you know if you see somebody that you really like who who's you know even if it's somebody you don't really know it's a influencer or whatever but somebody you want to encourage to be here i you know go go throw them some warps if you're an og you can you can afford the buck it'll be fine you know and just welcome them and also welcome them with your with your followers so
best way right i mean this is what's beautiful about forecasters there's so many ways to kind of like reward the behavior like spread positivity make it feel different and how good does it feel when someone tips you with warps how good does it feel when you get a little like warp for your cast so yeah
yeah it feels good so you know it let's encourage that behavior in just a very nice way not in a like a you know spammy way and if you are new another you know we've had a lot of people putting up some great you know podcast about what to do and what not to do but one big thing i would say is be yourself like don't bring your twitter personality over here if it's not the same you know what i mean like you don't you can be yourself over here we would prefer it so you don't have to be ah you can just be you and chill and find the you know find the channels that you connect with and connect with those people because those people like we have more people over here than bots it's very different from twitter so you can actually connect with humans so go do that it's fun we we have
and if you're performing like if you kinda come over with your trying to perform or it's people aren't gonna follow they're not gonna engage so it's the we call it the group group chat vibe is what you're going for so it's really you know kind of conversational conversations and engagement is more rewarded than showing off
yeah absolutely and it's rewarded by the algorithm by the way if that helps you at all if that's your thing like just just you know reply low effort replies will not help you that has been clearly established so make sure we have a whole meme about that so make sure you're you know just just be genuine and engage in the ones the folks that i'm seeing who are like they're exploring but they're actually digging in like zeneca is a great one example for that they're you know they're trying to learn they're trying to help and they're also trying to think about what can i contribute here not what can i get what can i extract they're going what can i add how can i add value not how can i get something for bringing myself over here you know like that's not gonna it's just not gonna be you're not gonna enjoy it it's not gonna be fun so you know just see how you don't ask what farcaster can do for you ask what you can do for farcaster you know that's that's just my my thoughts on that anything you wanna add before we move on to some other news which will probably be all related to this
i said it well let's move on to
the news let's move on so dan i just loved this meme 1 hour here is 7 years on earth yep yep yep yep coop had some good thoughts here too the best way to grow a following on fc on forecasters to create meaningful conversation exactly what we were saying sounds obvious but you'd be surprised at how many amazing people here are able to hold deep conversations about whatever is on your mind put real time and energy into the network and you will be rewarded can't stress that enough moving on to events that are upcoming psa i won't be at east denver this is from dan however from adrian and i we will and i did put it in the little asterisk be at east denver and one big thing and i'm trying to get this done and it will be done by the end of the week is i'm putting together a little form spreadsheet kind of thing if you're speaking if you're a building on farcaster or you're a member of this community and you're gonna be speaking at 8th denver we wanna be there to capture that and to support you and cheer you on and all the things so we're gonna be putting together spreadsheet like that to make sure we can capture that while we're there we have our little press pass we have our little podcast area we wanna make sure we're connecting with the farcaster community and then also for those who can't make it if you're you know on the other side of the world and you're like there's no way i can get there we're hopefully gonna be sharing a lot of that content during that time so that you know you can you can feel that vibe and you can you can be there with us and then purple their prop did go through so they're gonna have a big event on that saturday more information to come if you're a member of purpledao couple big important announcements one keep that on your calendar that's gonna be that saturday look for that information 2 there's a town hall today so make sure you look for that on chris corella's post and 3 there is a prop house round so if you have been contributing and building something on farcaster make sure you drop something into that prop house round and adrianne can you work on that this weekend because i don't know if i'm gonna have time so anyway adrianne what else did you wanna add to that should we
should
we put
our show up for the prop
oh yeah for the prop we we definitely have to and here's the thing it's it's not necessarily about winning it's about also just sharing what you've been doing and giving people an opportunity maybe they haven't seen what you've been doing there's a lot going on so it gives it's just another opportunity to share here here's how i've been contributing to the community and i wanna make sure that you know you guys are aware and and can come you know join what we're doing and have fun with us so that's the biggest reason it's a marketing tool as well there you go
should we do a 30 second what is purple for the new people
yes we should i was thinking we should record that later but you know what let's do it right now adrienne first of all why purple and then we'll go on what purple why purple what's with this color where does this come from
i don't even know how to answer that it's just purple is the color of barcaster well that's that's the answer
that's the answer
purple is the color of farcaster
dan i don't know dan must have liked purple dan and varun like purple and that became the logo and then back in a little over a year ago in november of 2023 chris corella who is a early user of farcaster was saw that nouns builder had launched and said you know what we need a dao that just supports farcaster builders so purple was born and it was one of the first the no it was the first it was the first dao that was built on nows builder and they've been supporting all the builders on farcaster for over a year now now moving to lots of stuff happening they've had a change of art we're going to be moving to an l 2 there's a lot of stuff happening so if you are interested in diving more into how you can support the farcaster community and what's happening there purple is a great way to do that you don't you can even just check out the purple channel and see what's going on there so slash purple and see what's happening there and go from there what else do you wanna add
that's that is it
this is how adrienne became dowish by the way i was i was already dowish and she the purple was her first one so i think that's true for a lot of people i think it's true for a lot of people
it was first yeah and and when when i joined farcaster there were fewer dao a little bit fewer dao than there than there is today it was i think in the 100 yeah not users but activity and purple was all over my feed and i was just and the people who were in purple the people who were leading it were really people pushing like real farcaster culture and what do i mean by that it's the it's the builder it's the supporting the builders supporting the people kind of doing the work emphasizing retro grants so it's kind of rewarding people who are doing the work regardless
that's why because why farcaster requires proof of work
proof of work right so it's the it's the missionaries not the mercenaries it's not people are not motivating people by kind of future reward and i just i was never into it into daos didn't understand it anyway it just i we're so glad person now
so and now we're all purple yes so if you're interested if daos are your thing you wanna learn more go check out purple see what they're doing amazing amazing dao i love i love it i love purple and actually they prefer to just be called purple and not purple dao just be there you go they i mean us by they i mean us us us we also have some real we have some really big news as well so yesterday the first emails went out regarding far con so and and along those lines a mint was dropped by ted to decide who will have to hit the dance floor first at farcon between dwr and v since qdao will be at 100 ks by then so that was the bet that was made a while ago but check out this mint
because a while ago it was hilarious it was like a week or 2 ago
it was forever ago so it was a long time ago so you can mint one of these and the one that gets minted the most is gonna be the one who dances so we've got v and we've got dwr in the vein of kim kardashian breaking the internet and it is just absolutely hilarious but with their pfp faces so go go mint go mint and vote and i was gonna try and do a vote on the chat today and i just couldn't quite get it to work i couldn't get it to work in mobile and then i didn't get a chance to get it done but who would you like to see dancing by the way
1st of all they're definitely gonna
be dancing it's gonna be dancing
there's gonna be a 100
i mean there's gonna be a 100 it's still gonna be next week we may have to do it sooner you may have to come on to gm farcaster and do the dance i'm just saying
i checked last night i was just so curious to see and i couldn't believe it but v had more mints than than than dwr and i'm curious where we are now
we don't i'm checking now we're at 65 for dan for dwr and we are at 70 for v and i am not surprised i went and minted 3 of each i have not made a decision yet of course that's of course i did by the way i always mint in threes usually you you know one to hold one to sell one to give away so i i was going to use a poll so maybe i have to do this in our channel instead so we'll do this in our channel instead to give like a final vote and i would pick 1 to vote for based on the poll so we'll do that later just for fun and then i'll do that on friday but who did you vote for have you voted yet
i've not voted yet
who would you vote for who would you rather see dancing that's the question i've never met varun and i don't so i don't know i mean
i just love all the chatter and the there's there's there's some talk that v is obviously the better dancer so therefore vote for dan i just do what you want no dan generally i just think it's more fun to troll dan than it is i mean like no one wants to troll v like yeah
he a little bit he's keeping things going by the way i love the end where ted said sorry dwrnv i should have asked i should have asked permission it is permissionless protocol but also then the response what from bea was are you really sorry
yeah no sorry not sorry
it's alright so we got emails yesterday we're both going to far con i have to go finalize my ticket thingy i didn't get a chance last night but look at that lovely you're going to far con image behind you amazing this is our summit pass i'm so excited i cannot wait to see everyone i feel like it's just gonna be like family reunion but with family i like instead of the none of my family are watching
without the awkward fights and the
no one's watching none of my family are watching it's fine so i'm so excited and i'm really excited for each other as well to see everybody especially the the purple party
there's just a request in the chat there's a request in the chat for you to bring noun swag to farcon and i just wanna say for anyone who's listening you do you never need to ask you never need to ask properly because i've never seen her without her suitcases
or flight tell you this is like within re like i can re like i've got multiple noggles within reach of this camera like at all times like if you see me and if i'm wearing my denim jacket which has a bunch of nouns pins and cryptodes pins and stuff inside the inside pockets are noggles at all times so i have you're you'll be covered do not worry do not worry and i will have my
i will bring my fox mask
and she'll have her fox mask and we will be broadcasting live from the noun's coffee shop the new noun's coffee shop so they will also have goggles believe me and even the coffee will probably have knuckles on top like with cinnamon or something so yeah we'll get you covered no problem okay few more things we need to get through i you know again there's a lot of feelings here farcon this was funny from gabriel farcon organizers we're gonna need a bigger boat because things are things are getting a little crazy and then we had a little i love this from wit do i want farcaster succeed yes am i a snob also yes so a little a cute little cartoon here again playing into the fid thing which really isn't a thing i love this cast from linda i just had a weird experience posting on x twitter where i was trying to think of which channel to my post belong to and then i realized i was not on farcaster i tried to tip with warps yesterday on twitter it didn't work
i had a comment on twitter someone did it gave it gave a d gen gave me some d gen on twitter it was a countless who is a doll and i'm pretty sure it was a joke
so holy joke holy joke
probably joke
thank you thank you but it was yeah it's been yeah interesting a couple other news points frames this is from me frames now support easy links create buttons that link to pages in 3 lines of code holy cow we're moving fast here and then i love this i'm oh this was oh this was similar to what we were just talking about i'm now pressing the undo button when i send a tweet because that's where the send button is on farcaster and varun said all part of the secret master plan which which might be true and then lastly cameron waking up to the trending tab vibeship on new user apocalypse monday this is fine yeah so i i i don't know when they reset how many followers new followers you have but i'm guessing that for a week i that it kept show it showed me how many and i'm like i have new for over 4,000 new followers my twitter flipped most of our twitter's flipped dan's twitter flipped and his was a lot so the flippening has occurred but also
jacob's twitter flipped
it's all
twitter flipped twitter flipped all of them yeah
everybody i doubled my number of followers in a in a week and and i'm not trying to like i'm i'm good i'm fine it's not something i try to do and it wasn't everything i ever tried to do on twitter either but you know it's it's been interesting so it's a lot it's a lot and usually i would go through all my followers and i'd follow back people who i either knew or thought was interesting or they had noggles in their pfe to be honest that would be the indicators as to why i would follow back and i haven't even had time to go through because there's too many so i'm sorry but i'll i'll get to you but i'll find you eventually adrianne we are out of time anything i missed that we need to chat about mention what did we miss anything did we catch everything did you get through all your backgrounds that you wanted to share
