to start, hi hi I'm keridwen! I'm one of the high witches of @cryptocoven, but notably the only one to come from a non-technical background. I'm a writer + wrote the original witch descriptions and lore. I have learned a ton about web3 but would still put me in the bucket of "uses wallet with intense trepidation" lol

I've been out of the loop working on a longform project (building!) and come up for air in the past month excited to get back in the swing of things. warpcast was stop #1, I hear word of cool things happening here + see familiar faces (been seeking out my witch pfp brethren)

tried at first to onboard on desktop but seemingly all roads led to QR code and mobile. I like to do all my crypto happenings on desktop so this was a hurdle but one I was willing to jump. I can see warpcast on desktop?? but not create an account there? @nyx calls to say she uses desktop and doesn't know why I can't

I make a mobile account with no issue – yay! I see people are posting in topic/categories – okay! what is that? should I do that? I don't at first because that's what I'm used to, but then branch out and try. I'll do "nft" because that's where people would know me from.

I believe this largely worked & did find some people to connect with there, but ran into some glitchiness in the actual composer and got scared off. aaaand then when I came back I believe some large update happened to how that whole system works lol. clean slate!!

so I find the warps menu and when I go to buy warps it sends me an email. email recommends these quantities. I still don't really know what a warp is but I figure I'll start with the lowest quantity and see what happens – idk how many warps I need to make a channel

so I am rich in warps but poor in knowledge. I want to promote my new project (a serialized onchain novel in the world of @cryptocoven ) but I'm not sure if the right move is a channel? for an undisclosed warp amount. or a second account? that I apparently need to pay $10/month to access? (found a post here about @supercast)

update: my number of warps has doubled from gifts in the few hours since writing this 🥹. I spoke into the void and found kindness! slash @adrienne, kindness incarnate!

continuing my warpcast adventure: woke up today with 1400 warps from kindly strangers. lovely!! I want to make my channel today, so I plan to buy an additional 1100 to reach the channel cost of 2500. I figure I'll do this in 3 batches of 500, as that's the lowest amount and I don't need the next tier, a full 2500

I successfully purchase 500 from a new email with no trouble. excellent. I go to buy a second set of 500, and ponder asking for a last 100 gift to put me right at where I need to be. except!! the 500 link only takes me to my purchase confirmation. I refresh, try a new browser, and try sending a new email. all take me here

thank you to everyone who has gifted me warps in the last 24 hours :)) now seeking advice on how/when to do the same – how should I continue this circle of generosity now that I am accidentally warp heavy?
