I should put this on a tshirt and sell it via a frame. The protocol has 641k users who have at least 1 storage unit, yet there are 211k users who have never casted before. How many people talk about that?

Two separate issues here, gents:

1) DAU being inflated (accounts with zero casts don't impact this!)

2) Followers counts being inflated

My original cast focuses on 1), whereas @ghostlinkz.eth's reply focuses on 2)

FC DAU is overstated by at least 5X; the same doesn't hold true for Twitter, FB, IG, etc.

You are right, these are two different things, but I picked accounts that have paid for storage and have made 0 casts because Merkle likes to talk that up as a solution to the Twitter bot problem. Plus, why is no one talking about it at all? Isn't anyone curious about this behaviour. Who pays for storage but then doesn't even say GM? lol
