In the past year, I worked with talented builders in the Farcaster ecosystem to build several products, including: 1. /shelf: A Farcaster Media client for a media-only Farcaster experience 2. Bogus News: A v2 frame prediction market launcher, pre-Warplet, that lets anyone spin up a prediction market in-feed 3. @bogusbob: An in-feed Solana token launcher, akin to Clanker but on Solana 4. @walterhopps: A Farcaster media curating bot 5. /onshelf: An NFT sharing product And a few others. I've spent a lot of time building in this space and am passionate about its success. I believe some of these products would hit (1 & 2 especially) if ported into the latest & greatest in Farcaster / Warpcast: V2 Frames, Warpcast Wallet & V2 Frame Push Notifs. But what happens when there's another Farcaster innovation? From some of the builders I've worked with - Keeping up with Merkle's innovation is exciting but also tiring, challenging, and not necessarily rewarding, making it difficult to sustain long-term engagement.

Constantly adapting your application(s) to new systems is def tiring, esp if you're not getting the distribution needed to make continued building "worth it." It's probably still not entirely worth building a 100% Farcaster-native product for this reason unless you have a team that can manage the frequent updates. I mean, even the addition of the in-app wallet will throw a lot of frames for a loop. That said, I do feel like it's getting there! v2 frames feel sticky and the potential is massive. For now, I'm looking at Farcaster as a distribution channel for a broader service rather than a home base for a new service.
