A year from now, I’m optimistic the Warpcast sign up flow will be:

1. Welcome
2. Email confirmation
3. Apple Pay in app purchase
3. Register username
4. Finish profile

Working on Farcaster and Warpcast. Longer thoughts at https://dwr.email

Hypothetically, you could just pull email in from Apple Pay. I think you can require it in the payment details card.

Welcome: [Sign up]
Apple Pay button
Select username
Done

Interesting. Would it create lock in to the Apple ecosystem for a user if they use the anonymized email address?

But do you get the same deal with an in-app purchase?

I think Sign in with Apple (lock in) is different from when merchants just request an email with an Apple Pay purchase. It’s been a year since I was there so things may have changed. Here’s Best Buy for reference https://i.imgur.com/1JzTNnJ.jpg

What if users can bring their own identity and connect their FC ID to it? And what if they could authorize other apps to see that connection?😮
