Warpcast

/ted | exploring the onchain frontier | surfing @ venice, ca | eating @ gjusta / gjelina

current state of crypto discoverability is absolute shit; it is either botted or overly contingent upon KOLs / cabals / token incentives or entirely nonexistent in an app

warpcast WILL be the default consumer crypto distribution infrastructure for both devs and users

1. We need better content.

2. We need serious, highly organized teams in one place/city routinely building 60 hours a week.

3. Discovery quality is a function of data quality, and we don’t have enough data. Data scientists are allergic to web3.. Too early.

4. Apps aren’t native nor pushing net new experiences.

if she means farcaster, i disagree w/ her.  i think walletconnect protocol is undeniable as the consumer crypto distribution infra for devs and users... it's where the dapps are. 

fc rn is where the vc money is and seeding lil gambling experiments. fc has a way to go to grab the rest of crypto. it's a very specifc niche here. and even tho wedded to coinbase and a16z, so is usdc, but look at tether. most of the world uses that. and most of crypto isn't using warpcast.

if she means warpcast app, i also disagree w/ her. rainbow or mm will be the interface and the infra.

Everyone will be able to use delegated EOAs in their user experience so most of these arguments will fall through. I don’t think wallet apps and on-ramp are going to be that important. 

Ultimately social identity will dominate conversations, and that is fundamentally a discovery game.

warpcast and farcaster and all apps on farcaster require a wallet and have a wallet embedded
