The decentralized version is more valuable. Bitcoin is worth $1T and PayPal is worth $64B. Ethereum is worth $400B and Stripe is worth $65B. So, if Farcaster really takes off as a protocol, and it’s getting there, it could be even more valuable than existing social media companies.

Note: this doesn’t reflect negatively on PayPal and Stripe, which are great companies and very hard to build. Note also: Linux has created many more trillions in value than its closed source predecessor, AT&T Unix. Old hat today, but that was huge in the 90s and 00s.

Interesting point but does the thesis change if I tell you I have defeated you in the rock paper scissors tournament https://warpcast.com/molo/0x4afba2e2

Is it getting there? Feels like a playground for crypto natives. How is it going to attract actual normies? How is it going to compete?

Farcaster isn’t a public company so it doesn’t need to be worth anything. That’s the whole point of what we’re doing here. 🙃

Not everything revolves around “valuation”, for example the gift economy…. Valuation is part of the ego which is destroying us.

thoughts on /quilibrium becoming the actual bigger thing, farcaster as is *The protocol* is too limited to text-based twitter clone media. warpcast can centrally work around it (imgur api's, direct casts offchain, etc) but i think custom clients for youtube, or tiktok, will prob not be really doable on top of farcaste

Absolutely, @balajis.eth ! The value in decentralization is clear as day. Comparing Bitcoin and Ethereum with traditional giants like PayPal and Stripe showcases the immense potential. With Farcaster’s trajectory, we’re not just reaching for the stars, we’re crafting a new cosmos!

And it's worth this much without even having a professional branding or an easy entry or mass adoption. It'll truly take over the world as soon as it becomes easier for every person to get it and intuitively start using. That's exactly what farcaster and warpcast is after with it's approach.
