Farcaster

i have always argued for first class translation in-app because i love being exposed to global voices. niche preference, no doubt. 

however these highly opinionated prioritization takes can’t be made in a vacuum of how they affect PERCEPTION of farcaster. there isn’t scale to support an international client, and there is no immediate viable future in competing with merkle that way. 

if fb could internationalize 20 years ago, why can’t merkle today?

tbqh, I think one-channel clients should be notably higher priority than translation (even connotation in the same language matters), yet I also really like the idea of the network hitting a threshold where translation is commonplace.

shilling this bounty again: https://www.bountycaster.xyz/bounty/0x1e5716239bff15e850a1ef81159842d490ec009e

can you give us an enlightening experience of our fresh new long casts to explain what you want from the consequence of this bounty?

how do you want to experience it?

what is the ux?

will you build on top of it? or anything that can better help understand what you need tbh (and why this internacionalization discussion is relevant for shilling it again)

This is cool, wish I could mint it from my feed. I have 20 minutes to kill, let's see if we can Collison install a frame.

idk about enlightening. the idea is to focus on using a scaffold demo as a target for a new dedicated channel, then casting another page as the frame app. assumedly, neynar account creation could be used to cast.

UX is completely experimental, idea is to use the scaffold page & the frame to figure out the ideal interface for novel contracts.

that's really the main point, scaffold already has every example of basic crypto fun & others, but there's a lot of stuff releasing in DeFi & governance abstraction that hasn't hit the TL yet, and when it does, there should be a consistent opportunity to test from the feed. @horsefacts.eth just demo'd this here: https://warpcast.com/horsefacts.eth/0x0016f0aa

the other extra icing on the cake, after this bounty is completed, is channel/client-exclusive casts (so we can compartmentalize PvP games & other controversial usecases).
