back in november, no one on twitter knew about farcaster. by december, ct transplants of two kinds began arriving, drawn like moths to our bright, beaming shitcoins: >profiteers, inspired by $POINTS (then $DEGEN) and the farcaster narrative >tourists, who follow profiteers but have no skin in the game the ct transplant tourists were gone by May/ June. the ct transplant profiteers who haven't left are still churning and will exit by end-of-year. their fortunes ride or die with twitter, whether they realize it or not. markers: >exited farcaster social tokens (all at once or progressively, disillusioned) >out of alignment with native farcaster token economy (no tribe) >pontificated often and loudly on why: [insert reasons here, usual blah blah] >theatrical pivot to alternative crypto scenes (Solana, usually) risk: >ct profiteers are habitually toxic: their farcaster shitcoin profits were less than they wanted (of course) and that makes them bitter and unneighborly. fascinating to watch play out, tho 🍿

real some "non-crypto" ppl joined and have benefited more from fc (financially and socially) in the last 6 months than some ct ppl who have been at it for yrs now crazy thing is, the "normal" crowd might actually beat ct in getting onto fc, likely due to ct tying their identity to that app, and if this happens the onchain beginners have a real shot at lapping ppl (in terms of understanding the eco) who have been in the space

that's a REALLY good and interesting point. let me idle on that for a bit but, yeah... that outcome is... possible... even likely. mm. good take.
