random hot take

the reason I liked farcaster so much when I joined was I was able to meet and get to know a new group of people that I otherwise wouldn't have been able to know. 

today its just not the same, there's not a lot of new content that I look at and go "woah", lately x has been doing for me

biggest need IMO is to bring more of this to the network, especially since distribution is so much better on x.

this has more views than most if not all of my top casts here, and i have 312 x followers and 54k farcaster followers -> (https://x.com/kw0ETH/status/1871648585894564035)

a lot of it boils down to giving net new users a reason to try it out, using crypto in a positive sum way is one direction, warpcast rewards is a great example of this.  

I'd argue it would be good to go further, one way off the top of my head could be using some/all of the $2.8 million ETH in the storage registry for developer/creator incentives -> which creates new experiences -> which creates new content

rather than rewarding people who already active here, i’d like to see warpcast rewards be used to incentivize new contributors to the ecosystem

They do — within the top 10 you have multiple people who are new this week or within the past 6 months. It’s adjusted based on follower count to benefit smaller accounts.

We’ll agree to disagree—always need to incentivize the loyal users too. Why preach to the choir? Cuz that’s how you make them sing.

I would rather see ~almost~ all new faces on the leaderboard + being able to tap into their profile to view content for discovery

also incentivizing people who have churned to come back

@firstdraftclub mechanics should be studied here (ritual + reward)
