Finally had a chance to listen to the first text-to-video AMA by Dan and had some insights/reactions: 1. Dan is hyperfocused on user growth through increasing the supply of quality content. This is nothing new. It's good to see Dan maintain the same messaging all this time while also showing off some knowledge on growing successful products. However, one thing that is a bit clearer to me now is that the team is more focused on growing the product/platform (Warpcast) as a means to grow the use of the protocol (Farcaster). 2. Dan defines high-quality content as domain experts sharing their knowledge with commentary (and sometimes jokes if they're REALLY funny). I really don't love this approach as I believe it creates classes of users, i.e., there are good users (domain experts) and the lower class of users that engage with that content. Also, it is less clear to me now who the audience for Warpcast is if that's the kind of platform they want to create. That's a very niche use-case of Twitter. [Continued]

To be clear, the current shape of the network is like Twitter. Twitter is a status-based network. If you're going to grow a network like Twitter, then you need to increase content from higher and higher status people. If that doesn't work, maybe we need a different shape of the network (but would require us to change product direction).

Maybe you should try growing it from the ground up instead of top down. The majority of the users here aren't higher status people but they factor in the bulk of the growth and eventually "should" lead attracting those with a large following on Twitter. I think as the overall network grows it will attract them. If there is too small of a user base they likely won't migrate over. Just my opinion.
