1. the SEC is dismissing their case against us
2. they were wrong on the merits and the law prevailed
3. this is a huge moment for crypto in the US and globally — dawn of a new era
4. our job is not finished and it's time to put our heads down and build for freedom

Base

It's based to buy memes, art, images, video, music onchain because you like them and like their creator. 

when the price goes down, you still like it and supported the creator. 

when the price goes up, you win together.

Why wallet?

Better UX in an app you use every day
Make onchain actions reliable and smooth directly from the feed—frames and token links. No app switching or deeplink bugs.

Automatic onboarding
New users don’t need to download a separate app—it’s already there when you sign up. If you get a reward, a $degen tip or an airdrop in your first week, it just works.

“Singapore of crypto”
Today, Farcaster is much smaller than web2 social networks. However, if the % of active users *with funded wallets* is really high, we have a near term opportunity to be a “small-population-but-high-GDP country”.

Developers can permissionlessly launch a frame, have it appear on Farcaster clients that have integrated wallets. “Get to your first 10,000 transactions by launching on Farcaster”.

Yes, you can launch on other networks, but their algos hate links and the drop off from seeing something in a feed to website to wallet is going to be high.

I think sometimes people forget that @base is only 1.5 years and hasn't even been through a full cycle yet

if sometimes it feels like certain things don't exist on @base — it's because others have had >2x the time to cook

we're just getting started

Super excited to have @ted join the team!

She took a bet on Farcaster early, did an amazing job with FarCon, Dev Day and a bunch of other growth initiatives last year.

She's going to be working with me to help accelerate growth and outbound marketing.

LFG!

Our current plan

1. Grow the number of daily active users on Farcaster

2. This benefits creators because they have a larger potential audience

3. This also benefits developers because they have a large potential user base

4. Super joining Warpcast allows us to invest more time on growth (no. 1)

5. Base bringing Farcaster into Coinbase Wallet—an app that has millions of existing users—helps with growth (no. 1)

6. We’re working on several big growth initiatives—both product-led (Woj will be helping with this!) and marketing / sales led (more announcements here soon!)

7. We’re investing more time in outbound messaging. You’ve likely seen our X / Twitter account get more active recently. Will be doing more here as well.

DeFi rewards those who take responsibility for their own assets.

Blockchain will change your life
