Users are expressing their preferences for a daily, non-intrusive advertising model on Warpcast, where advertisers offer financial incentives to a percentage of users through discounts or games.

if warpcast ever adds advertising, the idea at the start of this pod is how i’d prefer it to look

at a high level:
each day at the same time every day, one advertiser pays to be featured and a single notification is sent out to all users

the advertiser must provide financial incentive to a % of users in some way - discounts, send usdc to them, etc

even better if it’s gamified as jason suggests in the pod - he suggested a scratch off game where a small percent of users win

the advertiser is responsible for the creativity of the incentives and gamification, users can choose whether or not to click on the notification

would much prefer this than seeing ads in a feed https://open.spotify.com/episode/1Ujgo1RNQlVnRFSi8QWcda?si=BL3PQNOsT3myBpLL-nM4TA

been on wc 2 months thanks to @undefined. it’s been challenging getting accustomed to the culture here, but i’ve been enjoying it nevertheless. i love the community, support, and build culture.

as i’ve been tinkering with frames, actions, products built on farcaster, it has motivated me even more to think of ways to make something people want (h/t yc/@jessepollak) on/off chain.

but today i found out i’m already labeled as spam.. wtf :(

it’s pretty demoralizing as i invest time to learn, grow, and build within this space.

we need more “interesting content” on wc? the based, builder mentality i’ve seen from devs/creators alike is the only reason i’m here. (eg sharing progress on projects like yt automation scripts (@fun), animation shorts (@sloppy), mini apps (@matthewfox), etc.) but i can’t interact with any of them. or vv.

@dwr.eth @v how does keeping this false positive issue help with the culture/interesting content you want in wc? what is that vision?
