Rodeo

imo the hardest job in crypto is onboarding net new users. 2mo working at FC only validated this for me.

so when i see young photogs like miguelitoo (just DM'd him to get on FC) who are shooting Kevin Durant, Shakira, Grupo Frontera, Bad Bunny, etc join @rodeodotclub, it fires me up like no other.

"let's play a game all together, who wins will get a free beer"

"oh and yeah, to play the game, download warpcast and open /farcade..."

*after the game*

"oh and what's that purple app you installed? let me tell you a story..."

yeah, totally agree - IRL doesn’t scale, and that feeling is hard to replicate.

but i do think games unlock something special

also think there’s no one-size-fits-all. different approaches click with different groups.

fwiw i am very bullish on software as content (mini apps) in a social feed. would argue that the situation (incentive like free beer + social context) makes the pitch to onboard easier, not the mini app itself. tough to replicate at scale unless we go all in on IRL events (which i'm open to!!!)
