why are there so few young people on farcaster and why is no one worried about it

current part of the network expansion imo - still largely a linkedin alternative in practice (which is helpful atm imo) 

re: no worrying, short-mid term they don't have money, networks, or experience to plug into stuff atm 

agree that something to keep in mind tho

worrisome to me how many people have said "they don't have the money" 

can crypto OR farcaster afford to set aside the youth as somehow a target that is beyond or beneath us?

maybe this is more a crypto issue than purely a FC one, but feels like a sure way to remain culturally irrelevant over longer time frames

think there are two paths within > can crypto afford to set aside the youth - as it relates to money

there is the very real pattern you're articulating, whereby $ = existential value and youth lose the game 99% in that mental model

1/

then there is just the reality that this market is young and scaling unregulated industries requires certain characteristics youth are not positioned to engage with, know about, or care about even

strongly optimistic that they will be here (in crypto) soon and their exuberance will leverage the tech 1000x
