just to be clear, all new users will get at least 1 free storage unit on signup?

oh boy. that's pretty rough onboarding experience no? I'm physically feeling the regret of the last month of work to build on farcaster first You're telling me that I have to tell users they need to pay before they're able to take any valuable actions on my app?

Or, since this is a classic example of a public good worth funding, perhaps there can be a way for the community to buy and allocate micro storage units and gift them to new casters (mayb via purple) But the idea of hitting my users with a paywall at the first instance they want to use my product. No.

Gifting exists today in the contract, i.e. you can buy storage for any address. You can do this on caststorage.com today. Our hypothesis is people will be willing to pay if it's valuable. So our focus is on making it valuable.
