We're planning to move forward with rebranding the Warpcast mobile and web app to Farcaster.

1. Nothing is changing any time soon. We will take our time with this and have plenty of communication about it across multiple channels. The earliest the change will happen is mid-May, but a decent chance it happens in June.

2. We're going to work on a plan over the next 2 weeks and should have a plan by the next developer call on May 8, 2025. We will discuss on the call.

3. For developers: we're planning to open source the client monorepo— i.e. the mobile and web apps. Again, no timeline on this yet.

Curious why you think number 3 is a big deal?

Massive step toward even more sufficient decentralization. 

Also enables client devs to come and iterate in ways that are likely more creative because they don’t need to compete on feature parity (can just focus on their specific edge or whatever). 

We don’t need 10 Warpcast clones but we could see things that more specifically address certain niches without sacrificing the functionality we’re all used to. 

The unknowns are exciting here
