I'm so excited to launch Megapot V2 While I'm proud of all the improvements, I wanted to answer the # 1 question I get asked: "why are you building a gambling app when you can literally build anything else?" 🧵 https://warpcast.com/megapot/0x00f56db5

Sad that channels are going away Spent months pointing users to /megapot (1.8k members), should have sent them to follow @megapot (700 followers) instead 😮‍💨

Can't believe I bought a @megapot ticket with @solana It settled in our USDC jackpot on Base in one click No more liquidity fragmentation or complex UX. Coming soon to our mini app 👀

Respectfully disagree - I think you should ship with at least one actual benefit or change the optics. Shipping ASAP is important but the goal is to learn. I feel like all you're learning is how many people are 1) fans of Farcaster 2) want to speculate on the value of a future NFT for airdrops. Because of #2, it doesn't even forecast demand. Instead, I think you should either: 1. Ship with any one feature (eg. 10k characters in a post) and no NFT. At least you learn about how people react to that feature and use it. 2. Rebrand this as a preorder with no max limit that doesn't charge you until functionality is built. Currently, it's a "10k NFT collection" that will mint out due to farmers. IMO the Warpcast wallet funding badge coincided with a new feature - wallet support - and the purple ring signaled to others to add it too. Separately, minting out patron NFTs are useful for early stage startups with no funding. I'll still sign up for Pro since I'm a fan even if I think it's bad optics though

Building a developer ecosystem is the hardest thing to do in crypto We’re lucky to stumble into this — apps building on Megapot have all been inbound and with limited support Now we’ve published the tools for developers to properly build, and are excited to see what this enables

a few things to improve the Farcaster desktop site; 1. make it "Post" not "Cast", always makes me search for it. even X doesn't say "Tweet" 2. save a click by having a text input field at the top of the main page 3. make the post button bigger random shoutout to @miguelgarest.eth for the cuteness in my feed

Where can I learn about how Solana accounts are coming to FC? For example, do all Solana users get a native EVM warplet? This would be huge for allowing existing mini apps to reach new user. What changes should mini apps do? What classifies a user as a Solana user - is it the primary wallet linked?

Megapot is a protocol-native company that ships like a Silicon Valley startup We try to test out user demand as early, and as fast, as possible before taking months to build it into a protocol. We’re proud of reaching our limits due to user demand outpacing our unoptimized code and now, how we’ll continue experimenting with a bias for speed

It’s insane to hit the million-dollar milestone 🤯 When we started, no one believed that we would reach $100k But our community did, so here we are. It's still Day 1, though, since $1M is far off from our global ambitions. Next is a daily $10M jackpot, then $100M, and $1B!
