Working on Farcaster and Warpcast. Longer thoughts at https://dwr.email

how bullish am i about Farcaster? 

let's put it this way. i've seen @dwr.eth at the beginning of it all back in 2022. met my co founder @peter on it when i was clueless about my next steps. 

in short, i simply want to live in the future where Farcaster is bigger than X. 

i have so many ideas i wanna work on, and Farcaster's bull case is the fertile environment where what i build can thrive without limits. 

i don't intend to ever retire no matter how old i get. and i need a playground to keep my inner child alive. even the DAU is trees. i'm wishing for the forest and so should you.

Can we bring back the "Why did he leave" meme back again? That died off waaay too quickly.

FC is such a fun playground. Can't wait for it to grow into a whole city and further.

And then you told me why I call you my role model ?😕

I'd love that as well, any ideas how we'll onboard the NFT & CT communities? It's been a struggle so far I tried really hard but most ppl don't stay sadly.

A lot of chatter recently about Farcaster, marketing and expanding beyond crypto

I have yet to see a crisp definition of:

1. What problem does Farcaster solve for people outside of crypto today?

2. What evidence exists that existing  at-scale free social networks and paid creator tools / platforms are insufficient in serving these people?

3. Assuming this population exists, what channel (i.e. tactics) do you market Farcaster to said people?

I'm not asking for free work, fwiw. It's our job to figure to this out (we don't have an answer for this question ourselves). 

But hiring a "marketing team" when you don't have an answer to this question is not going to solve the problem.

Marketing works great when you have a clear value prop and target market and channel.

The problem is that the trees in this forest are all crypto-related. There’s still a long way to go for non-crypto trees to grow in this forest, sth that even finds challenging…

Farcaster is a concentration of talented people in many fields, and it often happens that they don't just watch from the sidelines, but actually contribute to what the place will be like. So I'm sure the future is yours. And I want it to be

I believe that Farcaster will become bigger than X 👍
