I’m partially surprised at how few people see that before any great industrial renaissance there must first come a great financial restructuring. Like, why do people bash the fact that money, and speculation of it, exist in every facet of what the current frontier tech stack offers. You think people moved to California to mine gold because gold was the greatest discovery? F* no, it’s because there existed a moment to monetize, speculate, and for many improve quality of life by a new “means”. ~75yrs after the peak of the gold rush in the US, we had another financial change, the USD, and a ton of speculation went into the dollarization of the world. Now we’re going into digital currency and building out the behavior of digital economics with an explosion of digital currencies and speculation. A rant of a thought, from seeing several post about how much crypto is focused on “money” or “speculation”. Yeah, it is, because that’s what comes before adoption at larger economic scale.

discoverability is a centuries old problem. It has never scaled well for small niche communities in any social context. Pre-social media and it’ll continue to be a problem at scale. This is why the medium changes every time. You either give into the algorithm or live long enough to be the algo. I do think places like Farcaster give content a very different avenue to approach being seen. Simultaneously, everyone is up against human behavior. I actually would love to see more content, but in the end seeing more content isn’t the thing. You need to be able to act on the content, become part of the culture of what the content is saying. If not, you’re just passively consuming and it really doesn’t matter if you see it or not. I think that’s the part that makes Farcaster most interesting. People here don’t just want you see their content, they want you to be part of it. Be “inclusive”, but people got their own baggage and still don’t know how to include themselves into what this meta-modern theme of social media really is. We’re seeing the start of something weird here. And it’s going to take many iterations to get to a final state, and I don’t think it matters if people see me or not. I just want to belong alongside the content.
