What if Farcaster is just a really good crypto forum—niche discussions, on-chain identity, solid UX. Basically Hacker News for crypto with a nice app. Maybe that’s all it needs to be. 🤔

I thinka new version of the bitcoin talk forum of 2012, or crypto twitter of 2020 would be a massive success. I don't understand why there's not 5 well-seeded, well-modded crypto channels (crypto news, trading/earning, defi, nfts, crypto x ai). With today's interest in crypto, there could be 100s of top influencers per category, 1000s of occasional contributors and Millions of passive followers who might even trade upon info. Obv that requires work but every crypto project has a niche discord or telegram with community mods and there's plenty of well-run telegram chats with mods. So, I consider this a miss - especially as Farcaster wants to target crypto users.

I think important channels shouldn't be controlled by individuals. For example, the /crypto channel doesn't accept any members, and even though it has a general crypto name, it used to delete posts for any reason.

100% aligned with this. Channels suck right now — no bumping means active convos just die, mods having to approve every member kills momentum, and of course spam farming ruins the rest. Every good forum had thread visibility + low friction to join. Feels like a huge miss, especially for a crypto-native network.
