today's episode

I usually don't leak alpha from the office, but this was too cool not to share. Say hello to the newly redesigned Warpcaster Web

Okay this is going to be feel like engagement farming (and it is, but it’s a well intentioned psyop)

If you’re paying attention to Farcaster on a Saturday morning please engage with this cast so I can follow you because I know you’re invested in this platform

😩😮‍💨🫡

oh hey it’s that time of the year that I’m supposed to be visible or something, let me set the css attribute:

What do people think of the idea that Farcaster might be *too polite*? Like, people love to rail against the toxicity of twitter, but ultimately it's a PvP MMORPG and lots of people really enjoy the PvP - if not participating, then at least seeing some fireworks in the background...

Alright Farcasters, it’s Friday night, time to get unhinged. AMA

lol

does anyone wanna come to my bday party in Toronto

age range from 24-45 and super diverse crowd: drs, tech+finance bros, djs, swingers, sex workers, waiters, food scientists, unemployed folks

none of that “what do you for work” just vibes!

This is the way. Sharing ideas is hard. Building things is hard. Launching is hard. Entrepreneurism is hard.

Celebrate everyone who achieved any one of those things because most of the world is telling them it’s a bad idea.

sitting at mcdonalds across from a guy that loudly licks salt off his fingers after every french fry. im gonna fuckin lose it

the first month of Base is in the books:

→ hundreds of dapps committing to base
→ thousands of developers building on base

gm! Had to stop for this one.

Is it even a meal if you don't antagonize casters?

(Chorus)
Rise up, Farcaster, fierce and true,
Kiwis with skin on, we embrace the new!
Scrambled eggs in mugs, our symbol of might,
Together we stand for a future so bright!

Thanks @dwr for coming to talk to us at @a16zcrypto crypto startup school this week!

Loved hearing about the nitty gritty of building and growing a social protocol. Am super impressed by how you and @v think about the stated vs revealed preferences of end-users and developers

I was playing around with Midjourney v5 on photorealistic (although magical) alternative versions of the Farcaster logo. Fun little experiment. It was generated as a Triumphal arch, might not be what the original logo is.

Gotta love the pure value proposition marketing in NYC
