In retrospect, decentralized social network has been terrible framing for Farcaster.

Two recent frames that are better:

1. Farcaster is an economy — social network + crypto wallets, small but high GDP per capita, h/t @woj.eth @luc 

2. Programmable social — X APIs are dead, Farcaster APIs are constantly getting better, h/t @six 

It's still (mostly) decentralized under the hood, but lean into the things that it's really good at relative to the competition.

If the target are new avg users and not crypto experts, I'd not connect social to economy/personal finances until a good level of privacy can be established. I don't think the avg person would love to connect a financial profile to his public identity.
