Here's a list of mini-essays discussing how we're building: - how we think about scaling and growth - monetization - why Hubs - why you generated a new Ethereum address during sign up https://warpcast.notion.site https://i.imgur.com/9jYF01l.png

Could farcaster have been built in a world where bitcoin and ethereum and all other blockchains had never been invented? With the same permissionlessness/credible neutrality properties? Bit of a leading question because i think the answer is yes.

Earlier, I heard you say it took around 2 years to launch Farcaster. What took so long? (Not judging, I’m genuinely curious. Was it the headaches of building it as a decentralized network? Something else?)

Is there interest in an App Store for Farcaster? Install (mint) custom apps (NFTs) to mod user experience (feeds, communities, marketplace, and beyond).

how does farcaster protocol attract devs? is it a metric we actively track or devs just like the app and only found out about the open protocol later? in other words do you attract devs? or just focus on users and devs will come naturally?

Other than DAU and retention, what metrics do you monitor for "quality" of FC discussions? Or these two are enough?

I've seen the incentive problem where farcaster clients don't have to share their data back to the hubs discussed a bit. IIRC, the solution was to make amps only available to those who share data? 1) Do you think Amps will suffice? 2) Do you all have any other planned methods? 3) Any other general thoughts?
