Warpcast rewards are getting bigger! 

- Audience is now ~1,000 people (instead of 500) 
- Pool is now ~15,000 USDC (up from 10,000)  

Our goal is to make Farcaster the easiest place to earn if you're creating original, interesting content. 

We're also making a couple tweaks to the algo, details below.

We noticed a few things that we want to address: 

- Giveaways, where people are incentivizing engagement by giving away tokens (instead of posting great content) 

- Farming, where certain accounts are acting in rings to boost other accounts (even if their content isn't unique or interesting). 

A little bit of this is OK - it's fine to give away stuff to your audience and to like things that your friends share in group chats. But we're seeing very obvious farming where the content is obviously unoriginal and getting a disproportionate number of likes from the same accounts. 

The algo this week is going to be adjusted slightly to discount engagement from obvious farming attempts. Scores may be lower in aggregate relative to last week as we make these tweaks.
