Consumer Crypto

I want to onboard my wife to the new @zora update. After talking with her and explaining MM, Base, etc... I realize how confusing that is.

What is now the recommended way to onboard a new non-technical/non-web3 person? @coinbasewallet (onboard and offboard) & the @zora mobile app? What tradeoffs are there?

The journey has started. She got through the @zora onboarding fairly easy (said some profile updates cc @tyson). 

Now onboarding to @warpcast - how would you describe Warpcast @ted/ @linda? I feel like you all would know best... decentralized social sounds kinda gross to the non-web3 person. She asked if it was a wallet and I said sort of?

we need to work on the short description, tbh 😅 

its like twitter meets reddit with mini apps similar to early facebook (farmville, poking, buy zora posts, etc.) and the easiest place to earn on social (top casters get up to $300 a week, sent same day directly to your in-app wallet.

Short description would be great. I added Farcaster as something to try to our newsletter which explains crypto to non-crypto people (https://www.blockswithbenefits.com/p/newsletter-2025-03-04). FC is a great example for a decentralized app but what’s really the user benefit when you’re used to giant networks?
