Farcaster

The Farcaster Secret Master Plan

Goal: get to 1B+ DAU for protocol

1. Grow DAU by 100x (single digit millions). Likely through Warpcast.
2. More developers get interested in building new social apps
3. New apps attract users; virtuous cycle
4. Win crypto first, then other categories. Likely through channels.

1/ How will Farcaster succeed if apps have to compete with Warpcast?

If there are enough daily active users of the protocol and the underlying data and APIs are actually permissionless, people will build new and interesting apps.

This has been the plan since the beginning (channels being a new thing along the way).

Maybe. But not having basic features on Warpcast (flagship) will deter ppl for trying other apps.
Atm 
- priority is overkill (feels like censorship sometimes, missing replies from frens
- no gif keyboard is… inexplicable
- pinning cast(s) on profile could be great

1. Priority you can turn off; new users don't have it on be default anymore
2. GIF keyboard -- opportunity for another client. :)

1. Turned it off, gonna test like this
2. Mistake imo, but appreciate the answer

2. people still like gifs ——— gifs express human emotions———-> shared emotions——-> create stickiness ———> result: users keep coming back
