Farcaster

186 new Farcaster channels created in less than 24 hours since going permissionless. 

162 before. 348 total now. 114% growth. And all of the new ones cost ~$25.

Is there any way to curate potentially redundant channels?

My understanding is they disappear after 12 months if renewal fees are not paid.

There are already adjacent channels (such as /books & /literature, /trading & /alpha) where I don’t imagine we have a large enough audience for such topical nuances, so it might happen quickly that some channels fall into disuse.

Great question. I’d like to read other people’s thoughts because this is virgin territory for me.

I’ve created content for free on X and FC because it was in my selfish interest to do so (followers, clout, etc - the influencoor game).

I’ve also moderated a subreddit for free because it was fun and engaging, 1

Can we set up Warp DAOs and subscribe to specific channels? If we truly are entering the era of “Read-Write-Own” then content creators/moderators should be able to recoup channel costs.
