Exciting Bountycaster news!!

Now you can create a bounty natively from the Warpcast cast composer (mobile only to start). Just tap the green bird icon at the bottom and it'll bring up a form to fill out which will auto-populate your bounty for posting!

This makes discovery on how to post bounties so much easier. Huge thanks to @horsefacts.eth @blockheim @v for the work and support on this for Bountycaster!

Onchain is the new online - FID 206 -  Building /coop-recs

Honestly I'm not worried about the market tanking.

I feel confident in the foundation we've built over the last year.

The people here are highly motivated and driven by onchain desires outside of speculation and get rich quick schemes.

Take a deep breathe - we're just warming up for the real bull market in 2025.

Virtually all of the people on Farcaster with large audiences:

1. Don't have large audiences elsewhere (Farcaster is their first time with a large audience)

2. Didn't know me or Varun and didn't know each other. The "Farcaster OG scene" is net new creation of Farcaster.

3. Were early and stuck around when everyone made fun of Farcaster (and people still do)

4. Continued to cast interesting stuff, casted in channels when we suggested people cast in channels

5. Warpcast onboarding asks all users for their interests

6. Based on the interests, we pair the account with an initial set of follows

7. There are 200+ accounts on the list, weighted toward accounts that get the most engagement / drive retention, but a large group of people benefit

8. On our list to improve, but the reality is outside of "I should be on the list!" haven't seen any concrete proposals to improve

I quit a large audience on Twitter and joined Farcaster a year ago as a direct replacement. I didn't know Varun or Dan, and indeed, anyone else active on Farcaster at the time. While "the list" made sense early on, it should be opt-in recommendations now - the engagement inequality is very real. 

This is made worse by the hyperfinancialization, where a handful of those people are incentivized to be very active, while a vast majority of the rest are bots. (IMO, as a casual observer nowadays) Farcaster right now should be aggressively focused on social values over financial values (and yes, this is a very direct contradiction and trade-off) - in design, engineering, and most importantly marketing. Unless the terminal addressable market target is degens, which is fair enough.
