If you haven’t seen the World product event yet, would highly recommend it. World is the antibody response to AI. It’s a proclamation that human networks are unique, different, and matter. Tactically, it’s also a really fun playground to build on. Using mini apps on the world app / chain that you know has only human users is a surprisingly delightful experience. It opens up a brand new design space and distribution channel for builders (aka super app for every human). And with 15M users, 7M IDs (2 per second) with a next generation orb and new scaling plans, network density will be increasing very rapidly. https://www.youtube.com/live/Ey5bSeUeqqU

I'm honestly a bit confused about how to use FC now I used to just post thoughts on home similar to X, but then was encouraged to post more in channels. W/ this change, some of the channels I like and contribute to (books, chess, founders) I wasn't invited to. Maybe that's fair bc I wasn't active enough! But now I have to go and try to get invited to each one? I guess I will try to post on home and see what happens again 🤷‍♂️

My read on what made Meta Ray Bands take off vs Spectacles is the high quality audio and microphone setup Capture, share AND listen seems to be the killer bundle

very minor, but I do find myself more often coming across desktop FC sign-ins and having to whip out phone even though i'm logged into desktop WC already. Would be cool to just auto-login Makes me wonder if the apps building on top of FC are more mobile consumption oriented (what I imagine) vs. desktop consumption

Block has >$500M worth of BTC as an investment, and bought more last quarter. Makes up ~1.3% of total assets. They're also buying more from Cash app profits

Anyone face the challenge of (a) having a random thought you want to share but (b) not sure which channel to actually share it in? Just sending to followers seems to get lost. Alt hack to have your own channel seems duplicative w/ follower list?
