The farcaster app is a social media app built around Degen in the sense that you get an airdrop for tipping degen from your daily tip allowance to other people and other people tip you with degen for posting interesting stuff. You can check how much your tipping allowance is with frames, but it can take a bit to update

i spit out my water reading this: “farcaster app is a social media app built around degen”

if new users think OP sentence is true, where and how are they learning this?

imo,
farcaster: decentralized social network
warpcast: app built on the network
degen: social utility token distributed via the app and network

degen might be the best and the worst thing that has happened to Farcaster.

It'll be a small thing in the grand scheme of things though.

The open web is dead, long live the open web. ⌐◨-◨

agree. not concerned about degen itself, concerned about how people are learning this misrepresentation and then focused on what i can do (personally) to fix it.
