and i can't believe we're really doing this gm forecaster meetup on saturday
i know i'm so excited
from like hey
maybe we'll do a little get together
to
i haven't really told you how much we're spending on this so i should probably have a conversation with you later we're throwing a party later we're throwing a party like we're we're throwing a party so if anyone is like oh i don't want to you know spend all that money on that nft just to go like times what you're spending in that little bit of gas like times a1000 and that's about it's it's gonna be worth it we're gonna have so much fun we have so many like fun surprises that i was gonna give you a little alpha on but they're not here yet they're coming any minute now but trust me like it's gonna be so much fun so we're really excited to see you all yes journey's journey meetup and and adrian's got some surprises we've got like i i cannot wait that's gonna be my absolute favorite event i cannot wait i'm super excited to meet everyone and yeah so we're gonna have fun but before that all happens we got a few things to talk about for some news and i wanna mention adrianne's background is part of this gen art by maxi moni and it is really really cool mine didn't mint i don't think i i haven't found it in my wallet yet but it looks very similar to adrienne's funny enough and this is from maxi moni and it is introducing social graphs my first generative art project which uses your farcaster social identity to generate a piece specific to you every cast engagement and follower are represented in your piece free mint on base gas paid by me mint will stay open until i'm out of heat so maybe that's what happened and then once you mint it you cannot redo it so if you wanna change it you can reroll to give it like different different shapes but there are 3 shapes drawn every like reply recast you've you've received is represented by a heart every follower is an avatar every cast reply you've sent is an art arch additionally your fid determines what color palettes you're eligible for so really interesting approach loved it i thought what a what a creative idea and i love that it's pulling in you know your data to create something unique i think it's so cool and something you can't do anywhere but farcaster so that's pretty amazing pretty cool but yeah pretty cool
i saw people casting theirs and it kinda looked from far away just very jackson pollock y like very and then i didn't even realize once i did mine when you zoom in you can see every arch and every profile and it's it's very
really cool very cool mhmm yeah thank you the arches when i'm looking at your background right now i love it and my background of course is our little our little etimber mascot so moving on we have dan saying if you have a friend trying to get back on farcaster download warpcast have them click this link with the app installed if the email doesn't work then the account was not migrated during the transition from testnet to mainnet so i guess there are some few people who had accounts from way back when and never migrated so here is a way to test that also from dan we're hiring staff level front end react engineer at warpcast details below so if you are looking for a position and you are a front end react engineer hit up dan few other very important note from dwr i can't meet up with you at insert crypto conference here but happy to meet up with you at farcaster but you know what you know what adrienne you can't meet up with us that's right at denver as well as farcon other other crypto conferences to be named later
so that's because we're not we're not over here building product we're journos
we're journos we go to all the likes to call us we're journos now
that's a joe joe patrick was the original journo journo call out and do we be wrong with it thank you
farcaster journos here we are excuse me that's i get a little little tickle in the throat which is always fun when you're doing a lot
of cleared up please
yeah yeah great also coming very soon from varun and team the frame transaction spec is ready for feedback please share your thoughts and replies comments or dms your feedback is very important for us to get the design right so if you're a dev and you are building on frames please go check that out our goal is to collect feedback over the next 24 to 48 hours and then finalize a spec before the developer call on thursday hd horsebacks for the heavy lifting and diodad gt and sanjay for design input so please make sure if you have any thoughts on that that you get those in asap
this transaction mean does transaction in frame does that mean transacting from wallet like on chain transactions yes that's my understanding frames
that is my understanding is that within the frame you'll be able to do on chain transactions so again like yesterday i think i said the you know the one thought that came to mind for me was the auctions because we know we can't do that quite yet we can show it's on auction but then you have to link back out so to be able to bid directly would be a transaction so hopefully that's one of the transactions that can get built so shout out to paperclip labs go check that out and see if see if you that'll work for you right so fast so i thought this was really funny from dan a little comment he from tcw lesson learned today don't try to play mind games with dwr and then he recasted with a little bit of a yoda yep i can see that so apparently tw tcw lost the rock paper scissors to dwr and this was the first time i had seen this fun little game and this is very cute so this is by devin conley and it is everyone on farcaster and i missed this a few days ago is now in a global single elimination tournament of rock paper scissors by the way i was eliminated in round 6 and i didn't even know it rounds turnover every day at midnight eastern if you forget to play you forfeit if there's still a draw at the end of the round it goes to the lower fid grand prize 500 k plus plus d gen so more than 500 k d gen i believe is what the what that was not 500 k plus d gen but i thought that was really fun and i missed my round apparently and i lost because the other person who also missed the round had a lower id of id than me but i kinda just loved the idea of this i love the idea of the games that can be you know incorporated into farcaster that you really can't do anywhere else and that's one of those ones and i just think they're really fun so there you go and be careful playing rock paper scissors with dwr it's really cool i really wish like i hope that he'll iterate on this and that you can like opt in and have like a tournament with specific people i think that could be really fun like do a little gm farcaster rock paper scissors tournament could be really fun and you'd have to be like in our chat to play or something like that so you know just an idea there there devin one other note i wanted to mention here was moz has a new episode out all about farcaster with dwr but the big thing i wanna point out is he shaved and he looks 10 years younger and how is that fair by the way like how does it happen you know even my legs don't what's the equivalent of your when i shave them like that's not fair it's certainly not fair but i was that was the first thing i thought of when i saw the picture i actually went to check to make sure it was like a current photo and it wasn't like what bankless did when they used one from 10 years ago no it was actually current and he looks 10 years younger but the episode also is very good go take a listen i'm only about halfway through but more of a deep dive as to what's happened in the past couple months so it was really good did you get a chance to listen yet by any way by any way
i didn't listen to that one yet i listened to to ted and nonlinear's and i just said like you know i can't get enough i can talk about farcaster all day and i can listen to people talking about farcaster all day
so you can get a hobby we start a whole media network that's all about farcaster what do you think okay cool
i just i can't get enough so i'll queue up maz for today
amazing i haven't had a chance to listen to ted nonlinear that is on my agenda for today on my way to on my way to work my my day job soon to not be my day job hopefully anyway lots of fun happening out there jacek posted this we'll be going live with anti antimo antumo i cannot say that and wake on thursday for airdrop 2 season 1 claim so this is exciting so if you've been tipping your dgen this is the day you'll be able to claim your airdrop and this is gonna be thursday at 2:45 pm we're early i'm not sure what time zone that is so take a look at that and it is going to be streaming i believe on unlonely i did ask that question and they said unlonely they think because where else would you be streaming something about dgen i mean come on like why wouldn't you stream it on unlonely really i mean is there any other place to do that sort of thing i don't think so moving on to pearl pearl announcement starting now placing picks is no longer free you'll need to wager pearls to place a pick new users will start out with 1,000 pearls so that's nice place picks directly on pearl.xyz and wager custom amounts only on pearl if you place a pick on a frame it'll default to wagering 100 pearls so you've got whether or not brian will receive more than a 499.5 replies you can wager on that and this is kind of fun and this you know it's it's it's the next move right they did the free version and now you're gonna have to pay but you're paying with pearls so if you've been playing this whole time you probably have a bunch that you can start off with as well so that you got for free so it'll be interesting to see what comes next but i wouldn't bet against brian is all i'm saying like wouldn't bet against brian there's certain people like if you've been around for a while you just don't bet against them and he's one of them so i do think he'll probably get all the replies he needs what have you been thinking about the whole pearl experiment and the and sort of that activity i'd love to get your take on that by the way i didn't prep her for that question whatsoever
we even did we even talk about this yesterday
not really a little bit yeah
like what do
you think about it look i'm all for different ways to experiment i mean if you remember what the what the meta was a year ago was engagement farming
yeah
and people would get in trouble for you know god forbid asking questions on your feed because it was seen as engagement farming so now you're seeing all sorts of these kind of like like gamified engagement farming you know yes
i
think it's great i do think it happens a lot of it just like it's too fast all at once you know i was kind of i mean i took issue to degen tipping because it tends to pollute my feed
yeah
i love the idea of it it's just yep i can't scroll past them fast enough the pro games look fun people seem to like it i say go for it
i was thinking it drives it definitely drives daily active users and and because if you if you are somebody who does like it and engage it you're gonna go look for the next one so i do think there's that piece of it i do think it's really fun i get a little nervous about the gambling aspect of it for a couple reasons but i do think you know if you keep it all in fun and nobody gets wrecked then you know have at it and it's been really interesting to watch it progress i think so we'll have to get ace on here at some point to talk more about it for sure and kinda dig into a little bit a little bit of the tech details too of how it how it's all working because it is pretty cool next up i thought this was really fun from our friend cameron content experiment number 4 live casting my reactions to c dixon's read write own it might take 3 hours or all week but i'll cast my thoughts as i have them 1st impression wonderful cover art and an nft mint i couldn't get to work on mobile that's that's unfortunate i did get my nft and it was pretty cool so you know he goes on from there to talk about his thoughts on read write own i've been loving seeing all the different takes on this and then i loved this from some love this outcast derivative by peachy4484 and this was also c dixon's book where they are holding it up like the outcast pfp pfp and i thought that was really cute we were gonna try to recreate but we we couldn't make it happen so we might have to recreate this in person i'm bringing both books that i own but i have to say about the nft so i got and i don't have it with me because it's at it's at work so i was showing it in class the i had one book that i bought on amazon and then one that i got from the publisher that came with a bookmark that had an f had a nfc chip inside it powered by iyk so i also have an iyk disk that i use for poaps in person which you'll all see very soon so i thought that was really cool that you could tap and claim it it was generative it was different and then it went you know into your wallet directly and it was it was pretty cool so i thought that was a really interesting mechanic the only other nfts i've seen with books have been qr codes so this to me was a really different way to approach it and i felt like it was much more crypto native the way in which it was done so just something something kind of cool very cool
i got an nft for the network state biology dropped for
but the
way that was done it was a you know on twitter it's like if you pre order show a screenshot of your pre order drop your ens and you would get added too so that was like i
totally missed that so that was when the n that was when the network state book dropped or the yeah
yeah i didn't think it's primitive what what i think is funny about read write own is chris dixon people were criticizing him because he was going the traditional publishing route yeah and you know oh you could have published on chain and this except he's not trying to reach us
no he's already got us so we're the we are the ones who are reading it but he's trying to reach the people who have no idea and but i think he's always
dropping in yeah he had to drop in little nfts for
for other guys i think he's done a really great job of sort of mixing that you know this is for new people who may not know anything and then this part is for the people who are the biggest fans right so it it was good to cater to both to both groups for sure so i love i love that and i think yeah
and there is a readwrite own yeah there's a readwrite own channel so if you're reading a book i tried creating like a if you remember a book club in forcastor and i realized it's too splintered there but there's a readwrite own channel good idea as you're reading you know i've been kind of dropping some observations things i'm finding interesting just in that channel so it's a nice little way to find other people reading the book
i think channels unlocks a lot of things where we can communicate you know about common moments and i think that's something that we've kind of lost over the years because of social media and just fracturing of you know where we where we consume content so i think channels can help to bridge that a little bit where you know if you think about like when we were kids even way back way back when i know in the last century not kidding when we were kids like you'd have these certain moments that were shared experiences that everyone would experience like certain tv moments and things like that we really don't have that as much except for like super bowls it really isn't that as much of that anymore but i think you can create these mini versions of that with channels and that's a great example of it like yeah just jump in the channel and now you're talking to people who are experiencing the same thing at the same time which is pretty cool yeah so love that do you remember the when the last episode of seinfeld that the sewer systems in new york almost overloaded because everybody went to the bathroom at the same time after the show was over
no i never heard that
yeah yes there was like a surge or something it's something weird anyway shared experiences i wanted to mention faristo cats is gonna be mincing this week so f farcaster og badge holders will have 24 hours to claim the cats if they don't have them yet free mint 1 cat 1 badge and after that a public mint will take place so look for that that's fun i really love these cats i think they're cute it's been create very creative way i think some of them like i'm surprised at how well he captured some of the people it was really funny i love the one with the kiwi eyes i think that's hilarious so i do kinda like them and then we have this thank you k macb bunny love and i actually ended up with one of these in my in my wallet as well but and i was like what is this it's adorable it didn't make a great background i was trying so i i skipped that but it is super cute and more we'll learn more i guess about fanny love if this is gonna be a thing or i'm not sure which but it thought it was really cute and lastly our friend d'wuffy dropped a really cool experiment in his own channel in woofs air stack channels so woof experiment number 1 air stack channels api launch channels are more than subreddits they're temporal proof of interest and interaction the exchange of vibes the evolution of identities gathered for and with purpose so you could mint this woof nft if you're on the allow list and the allow list was you casted or replied in woofs time stamp last night 24 hours more thoughts tomorrow more experiments to come at a yet determined space time and i thought this was really cool i was not able to min and i was like and he tagged me in the thing too wfy and i was like well i'm tagged so i must be able to mint this and then because i didn't read what the requirements were and then i'm like oh i see i bet i haven't said anything in here in the past 24 hours so that was why and i thought that was really cool and interesting and again something you can't do on twitter right is reward for people just replying to you in a channel and i thought that was very cool so really great job i really liked it do a few i have things to having issues with autocorrect in the chat
but you're on the list now
i'm on the list now well i i replied last night so i should be mhmm but i think that's a really you're on the list i thought it was a really cool experiment and i could see a lot of different applications for that even just like what we were talking about with read write own book club maybe you cast something and you know for that you know c dixon could go in there and say you know for everybody who casted something here's another nft or here's a something so there's a lot of different applications that could be very cool so great job air stock very very interesting love it and woof woof to you as well we are at the end of our time adrienne anything that i missed that is pressing that you wanted to cover
i stumped her i stumped her
