The graph can be used for any application 

@drakula is the first such attempt at video scrolling app with Farcaster social graph + fun web3 features

New apps will build on farcaster because of the social graph to bootstrap

Farcaster is simply a Twitter clone with most users outside of the trendy age range of teenagers and college kids

History tells us that we won’t know what the new social product will look like until it’s here but it’ll usually look much different than predecessors: FB 2004, Insta 2010, TikTok 2016, ChatGPT 2022?

Every monopoly crumbles! 

Farcaster will win because it's a better product 

Giants fail to innovate in areas that are bad for them, like open social graphs

I love Farcaster but 90% is incredibly egregious. That’s the combined weight of Twitter + Meta (both platforms) + TikTok and the list goes on

Unless some insane world event happens — where suddenly 6b people care about owning their data — it’s highly unlikely to even achieve say 30%

5 years is an eternity

and I believe in @alexmasmej.eth & @drakula

I enjoy Farcaster but it’s not going to reduce TikTok and Insta to <10% market share in the next 5 years

of manyyyyy reasons, channels are cute but don’t scale

NOT gonna change your mind on this one Mr McBain!
