#4 as an opinionated take is respectable, informs recent positioning as “built for the crypto community” and I think it makes sense in terms of their gtm

Basically no top crypto app has succeeded starting first trying to spread a wide net, they’ve all got adoption w cryptonatives first

Facebook go-to-market:

1. Harvard
2. Ivy League
3. College students (2 years at this level)
4. Open to everyone
5. Focus on winning country-by-country

People forget that MySpace was way bigger. Facebook was a "social network for college students".

Worked out for growing retained DAU. :)

Have you thought about brining on a community/content manager who would actively seek out crypto communities to onboard to Farcaster from Discord/Telegram?

But it also ate money like crazy until they finally plugged it into the most insidious ad tracking machine ever invented.

Maybe not the ideal roadmap…

LBuild slowly and then when the VCs come knocking become a megavillian who ruins the world”

Crypto social will be successful because of games.

YES! It found its niche audiences and then grew thanks to apps. So, laser focus on the mission, a dedicated user base, and then adopting innovative new ideas to grow up, up, up. Sounds like FC/WC to me.

What stage is FC ? 
College students for FB = CT for FC ?

Yup I signed up in college (you had to have a .edu email address) only to find my high school friends. After that it became pretty worthless.
