I just want enough Farcaster rewards so I can buy a dishwasher

how do we forgive ourselves for all the things we did not become?

Hey everyone, just joined Farcaster and wanted to introduce myself. I'm Eric, I've been in crypto for 10 years and now working on a cure for stage IV cancer. A little more about me:

- Ran Austin Ethereum Meetup from 2016-2018,
- Contributed to a number of early L2 Ethereum projects,
- Early member of Nouns DAO and built Nouns AI,
- Built and sold a crypto on/offramp (now DiviSwap).,

I'm currently working on Meridian Radiopharmaceuticals, which is developing the first cure for stage IV breast, lung, and prostate cancer (as well as osteosarcoma in children). When I'm not working, I enjoy powerlifting and reading the Great Books of the Western World to my daughter.

Excited to share my first on-boarding, everyone please welcome my dear friend Eric who is curing stage iv cancer!

Music

this track Lomsha from the french Hadouk Trio is really quite special. earthy and sultry world jazz that brings together middle-eastern modal melodies and north african gnawa grooves.

throughout the album the double reed armenian duduk—played by Didier Malherbe—features heavily which takes the place of the soprano saxophone in more traditional jazz ensemble instrumentation.

Got this song during a showroom visit last summer. They casually mentioned there was a pair of Rockport Aviors in another room, so we went to hear how they stacked up to the Wilsons. v relaxing.

great work, though don't have an enterprise sub atm so can't see the whole thing. a few thoughts:

- if you were charting ethereum protocol revenue like a token, you would never buy that chart. looks ugly.

- totally agree re: the rollup-centric roadmap, basically boils down to a lack of alignment between L2s and ethereum. running a popular L2 sequencer is quite profitable, so the incentive is strong for popular apps to own their stack and deploy their own chain.

- another big question on the horizon is how monad and megaeth will eat into ethereum's market share as they compete alongside solana and other high throughput chains.

we spoke previously about charting ETH/USD vs. avg gas, previously I believed that there was a plausible correlation between the two. looking at 2024 heading into 2025, I believe this is becoming less and less the case. haven't looked closely but you could argue that ETH's price action is becoming less correlated to its protocol revenue.

Roman recently had a whale donor fall through that almost funded the remainder of costs. With all the delays + developments around his case (including todays news) he desperately needs $2M to make it through. Full context:

Roman's legal team is running out of time and resources. His trial has been postponed to July 14th, 2025. This delay means more legal prep, more filings, and more hours for the defense team.

He needs $2M to get through the end of his trial. Here's the breakdown ⤵️ https://t.co/TTxzvF4Gpg

Introducing $PROCOIN, the community-led governance token for Farcaster Pro users.

All 10k NFT holders are eligible for an airdrop.

But there’s a twist.

**The token will be untransferable until 500 Pro users claim.**

In order to get a mandate as a community token, we need broad support.

To claim, quotecast this post with the text “Ratifying @procoin governance”

All 10k NFT holders are eligible, but the first 500 claimers will receive ~5x the allocation.
