degen and ham chains were mistakes and they set the whole farcaster ecosystem back im posting this after reaching out to @jacek and @deployer privately, but since they both answered that they have no plans on sunsetting the chains, i want to give a heads up to all other teams building their economies on farcaster: don't launch you own chains 1. fc ecosystem only has a chance to work if there is a lot of liquidity in one place 2. separate chains fragment the liquidity and only benefit the passive token holders (less sell pressure) and mev bot operators (arbitrage between chains and pools). actual users pay in UX, mev and fees 3. devs who want to launch integrations with these projects are fucked because most infrastructure providers don't support these small chains im building supercast wallet and it's beyond frustrating to see how close we were to having something truly great and how much harder it is to build a good UX on top of these projects because they selfishly decided to launch their own chains

why is pushing the limits of current infra technology selfish? this is a weird take from someone building on new technology for early adopters. there will always be pain points when building at this forward end of the technology curve building many chains is the entire growth strategy that the ethereum foundation has chosen to pursue. it won't all magically happen with all the pieces working at the same time. someone has to build new things first. i'm glad those people are a part of farcaster ask alchemy or infura to support them, don't stop the builders

having chains when there is no demand for new chain is not pushing limits it's stupidity. There is a chain for frames too which no one uses either.

There’s definitely demand for the Degen chain—people are building and using it. Sure, it might not be huge or for everyone, but even having a few builders finding value in it means we’re on the right track. If you prefer Solana or ETH mainnet, that’s cool, but let’s keep the space open for people trying new things. Innovation comes from experimenting, and we’re just getting started.
