ham because deployer has proven to ship quick, it has a strong community w/ solid memes and it’s just been fun honestly (even when it’s down). There’s not too much focus on price which I think is good too. Also there’s a large focus on an onchain builder community around the ecosystem  

that’s a solid base for building a long term project. All it takes is one killer feature or project deployer or the community builds for it to 🚀 again and bring in more people. This is similar to how warpcast integrated frames and now it’s crypto’s builder hub 

I think the infrastructure with floaties, hamcaster, and the tipping registry are solid primitives for people to build on

the downfall of ham is that it doesn’t get recognized by the elites on warpcast and hasn’t attracted as many whales or VCs to fund or be market makers. But I think it being a solo shop w/o funding can help it be more maintainable long term as long as it attracts builders 

just a brain dump of my initial thoughts (NFA)

Being a solo founder is hard. Hams biggest problem is marketing imo. If you dig in you'll find a robust tech stack. Ham chain, a layer 3 that enables any coin to become tippable in the social feed, FID to wallet and wallet to FID mappings so you can read Farcaster account data from smart contracts enabling new interesting projects to be built (shoutout to @syndicate)

The recently launched Hamcaster, a socialfi app that uses this onchain mapping of FIDs to wallets to create tokenized representations of your Farcaster accounts and lets you share $HAM rewards with people who stake your token. 

Let's not forget the Ham community on Warpcast. A couple thousand people engaging on Farcaster and earning $HAM based on various metrics. The only product with onchain tipping where tips are settled within a minute or two after they are set.

I've done all the development work and product design, @facu did the incredible design work and lent his expertise to product ideas.
