fwiw, the constant discourse and obsession with degen, moxie, and memecoins makes me want to use farcaster much less.

one casino in the city where gamblers can go is fine. but when the entire city is flooded with mini casinos on every corner, and you can’t walk down the street in your neighborhood without passing one, it becomes unlivable and uninviting.

i now strongly believe that all this is net negative for the space.

i've struggled with the fact that the current state of the culture harnessing the foundational elements of the technology is focused on instant gratification and gains

keep in mind, it's larger than FC as we see it with the explosion of sports betting to meme coin trading, etc. -- it's clearly the world we live, in or outside web3, but w/o a massive culture shift, it will remain the norm 

seems to damper the ability to get eyeballs/funding for progressive tech actually building things that expand our lives vs feeding our vices 🤷
