Farcaster Devs

ICYMI we built a ‘tap to pay’ demo for FarCon this year with mini apps!

I wrote a blog post about the process (and how you can build it, too) at the end of the thread!

With composable primitives, embedded finance will take on new meaning. 

In this case, Farcaster one click pay, built with Privy!

1/ It's a BIG day

EIP-7702 means ALL @privy users can get the benefits of account abstraction, like gasless txs, session keys, and more!

Privy offers seamless 7702 support on day 1, via integrations with ZeroDev, Ithaca, Biconomy, Pimlico, and others! 

Guide 👇

May end up being the most significant upgrade for mainstream adoption since I started paying attention. 

- subscriptions 
- better recovery
- automated actions

All powered by verifiable onchain security now. Big deal.

When you look up ‘locked in’ in the dictionary, this is what you find

We put him in a glass case so we could observe and learn 😍

Not enough people are talking about that @privy pay demo from the Privy/Clanker event this past Wednesday.

It was Apple Pay from your Warpcast Wallet via NFC.

Seamless. Onchain. Easy.

It was light years ahead of the abysmal checkout experience for merch at the Summit, which felt like paying with a check.

Composability ftw! This project has @payton written all over it!

instead of tipping, I want to request a dollar from someone on this app if they have wasted my time

Feature request @v -- feedback is a gift and Farcaster should reflect that truth.

1/ Wallets to reimagine the global payments system

We (@privy) are SO excited to be powering Lightspark’s wallet infrastructure for their Spark network.

Spark helps scale Bitcoin so users can send payments of any size worldwide, both cheaply and securely. Privy helps make this seamless for anyone.

Instant, cheap, global p2p payments is a massive market with tremendous value to users.

Proud to partner with Spark to help their developers easily spin up secure wallets!

1/ Login with WhatsApp

WhatsApp is the most popular messaging app in the world with over two billion users globally!

Phone-based OTP codes also provide some of the best onboarding UX available.

Now available to all @privy customers.

Global adoption comes through WhatsApp. 

Excited to support a new login method!!!

Data privacy on the web. Keeper of the fabric @privy.

"You should build this feature"
"You should make this small quality of life improvement"
"You raised a bunch of money why can't you also X"

Focus. 

Not claiming to be world-class at it. Varun is much better at focus than I am—I get distracted by shiny new things all the time. 

But ultimately you only have a fixed number of "shots on goal" before you lose momentum (and in other cases, funding). 

Have to constantly be asking yourself is this the highest priority thing we can work on? And if everything is high priority, then you're not focused.

Good clip below on what world-class looks like here (note that Jony doesn't think he is good at it).

We have 4 core values at Privy -- "Focus" is one of them, it's always the hardest to live by!

Before crypto, I had so many cool, stupid side projects that never shipped because they couldn't pay for themselves. Weekend over by the time you set up Stripe and configure all your billing alerts. Live in fear of fraud, chargebacks, and an unexpected infra bill.

After crypto, I had so many cool, stupid side projects that never shipped because they had no distribution. Write the contracts, test the contracts, build the frontend, write the tweet and pray you get 10 likes. Live in fear of a smart contract bug, die because nobody clicks through to your website or knows how to use a wallet.

But you? You can have it all.

“but jonny, installing a wallet and connecting it to an app is a non-starter for consumers!”

cope. all consumer products are pleasure-pain tradeoffs. add pleasure to offset pain

Many thoughts on the core issue here. 

But the pleasure-pain spectrum is a deep insight. Why speculation has such strong PMF.
