The most successful part of farcaster has been channels. Then they got dropped. Why? No good answer.

Did they keep using Farcaster? I saw so many people frustrated with the channel changes at the time

Eventually dropped off. But it was the easiest sell for me. “You can join fitness and post your Crossfit workouts”

To me that’s a good use for Receipts. Tbh im still surprised that the channel posting was a selling point

He doesn’t want to earn points. He’s not into crypto. What is the selling point of farcaster if someone isn’t into tokenizing their life?

The points in Receipts are just points. If you ignore some of the staking novelty they work about the same as the ones I got in MapMyRun but with a social aspect to posting

My personal onboarding of friends tells a pretty clear story. - one joined for /sports-bets to bet on Football Games Last Summer - one joined for $degen /degen to stay up to date - one joined also for $degen & I found out they kept looking into /memes /books for a while - @cornelia has become very active in /higher /higher-athletics None of them care about the main feed. That‘s just random stuff. I assume crypto Folks want to read more about tokens, crypto news, DeFi, crypto x ai. (At least I & my crypto groups on WhatsApp & TG would want that - nb looks for a new niche Internet Forum initially) Why is there no good crypto Channel/community here on farcaster? That‘s the main question for me. I‘ve seen it‘s very hard to grow your own channel and to keep it non-spammy. Hence, doesn’t make sense to put in the work as a normal new User but it would make sense for Farcaster to do it, to seed it, to Feature it, to either mod it or ask for community Volunteers or pay something for it. cc @woj.eth
