There’s one huuuge piece missing from the Farcaster community.

Our own mascot.

Consider this an unofficial call for our own unofficial mascot!

What do you propose for a Farcaster (the protocol + ecosystem) mascot?

I looked up animals with impressive reach (i.e., long arms). Some that came up were the sloths, gibbons, and octopuses (octopi?). I think any of those three would be a good candidate. The name should be Farley, obvs. https://i.imgur.com/7SQkO0k.jpg

We might also look for mascot inspiration in animals, like elephants and humpback whales, that use infrasound to communicate over vast distances.

Maybe an Axolotl. They have regenerative powers which is sort of like being decentralized?
