frames-devs

The current transactions spec is a great fallback for all kinds of transactions, but in a couple months most transactions in frames won't happen with it imo.

Just as frames allowed embeds by implementing a limited, safe scope, there's an opportunity to do the same with transactions, starting with small payments

Most transactions are < $10 and are payments for something (gas, nft, erc-20, game action). 

Smart contracts may need to be rewritten in order to work in the future new paradigm, but it'll be similar to frames; it'll be worth it for the conversion + distribution.

The current spec is too frictionful & will have bad conversion. 

Frames will find creative solutions, accepting payments via Warp Mints and similar instead, to increase speed, safety and simplicity, leading to much higher conversion and success.

frames require more than just meta tags; you need to handle POSTs, verify bodies, and in many cases rewrite your app to work in a frames first paradigm where you do everything via an image, 4 buttons and an input. 

I agree, but I think its clear devs will rewrite contracts to create better converting and viral frames

There is a significant contrast of effort between adding meta tags to a website vs. rewriting a smart contract.
