Farcaster

Both @v and @dwr.eth unfollowed me today because of this. Great example of the leadership and transparency being praticed on Farcaster. Keep up the good work guys 👏

My 2 cents:

Money and attention attract farmers. 
Don't hate the player, hate the game.

Farmers emerge at the app level, and while they have a wider impact, addressing the issue at the app level is the key. 

V/dwr taking drastic actions against farmers doesn't align with the permissionless nature of FC.

Then at least let's publicly own up to this and transparently define what a "user" is on Farcaster, so that when someone goes to analyze the raw protocol data, they don't tell their friends "this place is full of spam"

I believe the power badge is an attempt to define what a user is. As far as I understand, getting engagement from power badge users helps a non-power-badge user obtain the badge more quickly. So, in theory, it should work fine and build an organic definition of a user over time.

we will see

a lot of users left in the last days because of it, real ones, not bots

i still dont have one, and sometimes it seems like im casting for myself.
