I think Frames V2 notifications are a huge unlock. An app that uses Frames will be able to onboard a user with one click, trigger onchain transactions and send notifications! 

That's probably 90% of the stuff every developer needs to build (and they are not trivial) in addition to the core app functionality, and they will get them for free on Farcaster.

As for users, the UX is also much better than what we have been used to. Seamless sign-ups and sign-ins, if you un-favor the app, you no longer get notifications, easy to sign transactions or even perform onchain actions without connecting a wallet.

Notifications = retention for frames developers

2. I think that protocol-level notifications are an important primitive to build apps on top of Farcaster. Notifications seem obvious when your app is around casts and protocol primitives (likes, follows), but they are very difficult when your app is something else. cc @dwr.eth @v

See? They are listening! 😀

To be fair not protocol level quite yet :)

In this case, this was not the most important part. But notifications are very important. More important than casts, imho. They have to become part of the protocol (this does not necessarily mean on-hubs).
