Farcaster

Introducing my first iOS app, Scout Reader for Farcaster 📱

As a long-time Farcaster user, I built Scout to stay better connected to my favorite casters. It’s an RSS-like iPhone and iPad app with organized feeds, offline access, and on-device search—no wallet required.

Reviving the "primary address verification" FIP.

When we wrote this a year ago, it seemed like a good idea to allow only EOAs as primary, since SCWs may not be deployed everywhere. Now I am much less sure since most modern smart accounts have crosschain counterfactual addresses.

Should we leave this up to the user, who can verify smart contract addresses at their own risk?

announcement time: super is joining warpcast

we are joining forces with @dwr.eth and @v to build farcaster into the most important social network on the planet, together

farcaster has never been stronger and i’m grateful for everyone who helped us get here

below is the story and what is happening next

fc-updates

Our current plan

1. Grow the number of daily active users on Farcaster

2. This benefits creators because they have a larger potential audience

3. This also benefits developers because they have a large potential user base

4. Super joining Warpcast allows us to invest more time on growth (no. 1)

5. Base bringing Farcaster into Coinbase Wallet—an app that has millions of existing users—helps with growth (no. 1)

6. We’re working on several big growth initiatives—both product-led (Woj will be helping with this!) and marketing / sales led (more announcements here soon!)

7. We’re investing more time in outbound messaging. You’ve likely seen our X / Twitter account get more active recently. Will be doing more here as well.

Super excited to have @ted join the team!

She took a bet on Farcaster early, did an amazing job with FarCon, Dev Day and a bunch of other growth initiatives last year.

She's going to be working with me to help accelerate growth and outbound marketing.

LFG!

the ultimate stated vs. revealed:

“i’m quitting farcaster until [insert new meta here] is over”

Looking for feedback on this iteration for channels

The single biggest remaining complaint is people feeling like the pre-existing, large, topic based channels like /food or /founders should be more accesible.

It will also reduce work for channel mods who don't want to have to approve every single person who wants to cast in their channel, but are OK giving up some control of who (and they can always invite someone to be a member to guarantee it).

Curious:

1. Would you turn this on or off for your channel?
2. Any concerns?
