If you are considering 1, why not just use XMTP?

Instead of a Warpcast-only DC functionality, I'd rather see those 6-12 months spent adding an open source DC capability to Hubs, so all FC clients can use it.

DC/GC in Farcaster should:
1️⃣ Be based on FIDs & FC KeyStore. (XMTP has its own ID layer.)
2️⃣ Use Hubs for message delivery. (XMTP servers require additional payment.)
3️⃣ Use
