Announcing the first Farcaster L2: Cast! After working 6 years on Meta infra for 3 billion users, I knew Farcaster proliferation had to be cheaper - we built it. Cast today has ~500,000 messages external to Farcaster, with ~30,000 .cast handles, only costing $0.39/year on OP!

Neat! What do you mean by a “Farcaster L2”? I didn't realize FC is an L1.

I expand here: https://docs.wield.co/farcaster/layer2/overview Social protocol L2s are unexplored! We're referring to the analogy of an L1, Ethereum wasn't called an L1 at launch. For millions of people to learn and try Farcaster, an "L2" with small onboarding fees that has data from the Farcaster "L1" is essential!
