Thereās a lot of hype around mini apps on fc. I get it interactive posts, on-chain actions, seamless UX. But hereās my honest take: most of it feels like devs building for other devs. Mint this, stake that, tip here, vote there.
Mini apps could be powerful but not in the way weāre seeing now.
Where they actually make sense?
Places like Kenya or Tanzania, where tools like M-Pesa already serve millions.
Mini apps there could be a game-changer for:
⢠Mobile money integrations
⢠Education language learning
⢠Healthcare
⢠Identity & verification services
⢠Farmer tools, weather updates, local marketplaces
In those contexts, lightweight apps arenāt gimmicks theyāre bridges.
But on Farcaster, it feels like weāre building toys inside an echo chamber. Slapping a Coinbase Wallet on a meme post wonāt onboard millions or fix cryptoās UX issues. IMO
That doesnāt mean the experiment is worthless exploration is part of innovation. 1 reply

The Zora Saga: A Quick Reality Check
Iām not here to hate, just to point out a few uncomfortable truths.
Zora started as an NFT platform. Minting was cheap, the vibe was creative, and it felt like a win for artists. But behind the hype, things werenāt as fair as they seemed. āFreeā mints always came with a fee. Some of us spent thousands collecting. I remember when Jacob was minting his horse art those sold like crazy, and I donāt doubt he made a fortune.
Then, sometime last year, a portion of those collected fees was redistributed but only to a select few. No transparency, no open distribution.
Fast forward: Zora launches its own chain, pushes projects like $ENJOY (and another I canāt even remember), which quickly went to zero. Now? Theyāve turned Zora into a memecoin printer.
the $ZORA airdrop? After all the minting I did, I got about $20. Twenty dollars.
This feels like max extraction with minimal reward for the community that built the hype.
