PSA: Phase 1 of channel decentralization goes live tomorrow.

This is a preparatory phase with numerous changes, including deprecating old moderation tools.

Prepare for content volatility.

As always, hold on to your hats 🎩

Do warps go away or how will channel creation be paid for?

Sorry, what's linked is a little different from what I remember. Warps are still a thing and channels cost $25 annually.

I couldn't find it, thanks. Yeah was curious since they will be on chain other clients can create there I'm guessing they just may not be warpcaster accepted

I get the sense that payment will get sorted out later. It'll become a protocol level fee, like buying storage (Coinbase commerce backend).

Doesn't affect me just very curious seems like big deal for major channels

For sure. They will eventually set up multi year advance payments.

Figure I'll just pay up /degen for a century in advance and call it a day.

I meant the changes on chain not the cost 😂😂

Ah. Even so, payments matter. A big channel could get snuffed out if the rent is late ☠️

Eventually be like scooping up a domain they don't renew

lol w/ an on-chain, baked-in following of 2.7m farcasters (some day) 😂
