there's some confusion around farcaster names, so let me clear this up: 

- your username on farcaster is ALWAYS an ENS name
- one kind of ens name is the farcaster name (v.farcaster.eth shown in client as @v)  
- the other kind of ens name is the L1 name (dwr.eth shown in client as @dwr.eth)

I like baking /goodbread and building apps on web3 protocols. DevRel @ ENS Labs. gregskril.com

Nothing makes me think of ENS more than Farcaster

this is the normie pitch of ENS, taken from their website.👇

Now if you tell me my farcaster id is really an ENS, I probably think you're Internet Explorer telling me your proprietary extensions are akshually web standards.

I can't realistically use my farcaster id for any of these three functions (yet, without stretching the meanings quite far):

- Your identity across web3
- one name for all your crypto addresses, and
- your decentralised website

Plus, it's not mine. It belongs to Warpcast and can be rugged at their discretion.

PFP is my Native.fun Print, genart unique hash of wallet txns -> Faces of Farcaster

“You identity across web3” -> Farcaster is one of those locations within web3 where I’m currently using it. 

I don’t get how that’s not fulfilling its promise to the extent I need it to be filled as a consumer. 

If not for Farcaster, I’d see my ENS name as a simple way to identify my wallet and nothing more 🤷‍♂️
