Experiment: Hiding power badges

Power badges will be hidden on Warpcast for a week. We’re running this experiment because:

1. New user find it hard to get follows due to “power badge bias”
2. Power badge isn’t being used much in Warpcast anymore.

If we look forward, like in 2-3 years when Farcaster has millions of users, something like a power badge is necessary, we saw X failed to deliver it because there are lots of scammers even with golden ticks but we all know here is different, quality control is much better than X but since we are working with wallets and wallets are vulnerable I believe Farcaster needs something like a real verification tick (Power badge) more than Web2 platforms like X just for the safety of unaware users
