Reposting this from October. Things that will make Farcaster successful: - Getting to credible neutrality / 100% permissionless protocol - Continuing to grow protocol *daily* active users - The developer experience for building new apps is solid - Minimizing spam on the network https://i.imgur.com/IFAvrGp.png

Strongly held POV: near-term effort into onboarding non-cryptonatives to Farcaster is not a high ROI use of time. Reality is we are built on Ethereum, which is crypto. That is immediately polarizing to a whole segment of tech Twitter. That's fine! Has been this way for the 10 years I've been working in crypto.

Just out of curiosity, which parts are not yet permissionless /decentralized? For example, where are posts and comments currently stored?

is minimizing spam on the network a client responsibility?

Seems a bit obvious but community is key too. Sure all the apps have a “community” but none are tighter than FC. The community being built here is kind and inclusive. Definitely a huge differentiator to competition 🙂

#2 is spot on. I advise companies in this same point. You should spend the vast majority of time listening to your users and their problems. That’s where direction should come from. When you’re over focused on a competitor, you start playing their game instead of your own.

very impressed by teams direction. I always learn something new from you all. Watching you all talking and executing for the last 1.369yrs has been remarkable to witness. makes it really easy to be a Farcaster maxi.
