Bluesky raises $15M in Series A on a userbase of 13M. Led by... drumroll please... Blockchain Capital! Feels like a parallel universe.

Crazy idea but what if Merkle decides to create fids/storage for some bluesky users (which they can claim anytime they want) and decides to auto cross post their content. Like the twitter experiment, but in this case there is a good chance many could migrate.

pretty sad state of affairs for this industry that their announcement had to explicitly state that they “do not use blockchains or cryptocurrencies” https://x.com/molly0xfff/status/1849528329994428676

Farcaster raised 10x more $$ with 10x less users. One of them is wrong 😅

one thing Bluesky has going for it is a large number of Twitter exiles

anti-AI hate thrives on bluesky against artists who use AI tools not a place for me I hope FC does better when the hate brigades eventually arrive here seems inevitable when platforms scale these days, given the propensity towards hate in the general online populous

Just exploring it. Seems promising. Is bluesky mastodon? what is different about bluesky?

To be fair, while Bluesky isn’t using blockchain or cryptocurrency in any way, they do use technologies developed by Filecoin/IPFS and the CEO is a former Zcash dev. It’s not like they’re ignorant about blockchain they just don’t see a meaningful way for it to be involved outside of speculation. And it’s refreshing to have different approaches be taken, because most of what blockchain has done on FC isn’t overtly meaningful to everyday consumers and the way Lens uses blockchain is almost entirely speculative and money-grabbey. Hopefully they will employ blockchain for identity in the future and find other ways to leverage the tech, but I see no reason they would explicitly need to.

I was expecting more outrage from the BlueSky crowd over being funded by "crypto people". The outrage wasn't so bad.
