Farcaster

In retrospect, decentralized social network has been terrible framing for Farcaster.

Two recent frames that are better:

1. Farcaster is an economy — social network + crypto wallets, small but high GDP per capita, h/t @woj.eth @luc 

2. Programmable social — X APIs are dead, Farcaster APIs are constantly getting better, h/t @six 

It's still (mostly) decentralized under the hood, but lean into the things that it's really good at relative to the competition.

can see this week now how Farcaster is an economy, wow 

🎩  + 🍖 tipping, ❓ anon casting, Ⓜ️  advertising, and a lot more

🎩 first, but I like being part of this experiment that is the Farcaster network. 

I suggested the other day to dwr FC is Luxembourg (highest gdp per capita)...he said Singapore (#2), for now. 🫡
