Data

Say I want to build a network of all the Farcaster users. What would be the fastest way to get the data?

Just created an account here and I know nothing about the protocol. Thinking about this as a fun challenge!  🚀

the easiest way to look at all users is dune, they source data from @neynar  which has apis and a query tool similar to dune which you can download a csv of all users from. 

check out https://chat.openai.com/g/g-lKnQHXJKS-dune-x-farcaster-gpt to generate dune queries about farcaster

best farcaster developers build on neynar.com | /neynar

you can also use farcaster-py on github or the warpcast free apis if you can find them. or ask for a sql dump of the user table from someone running a hub

you can spin up a digital ocean hub under minimum specs in like 30 minutes on your first time reasonably, however i've never setup the postgres replicator. Actually cc @dylsteck.eth i would check out his dev kit and or reach out to him

Sweet! The Python package is awesome. 

Curious how quick could I spin a hub and get all the users in the database. 🤔
