I actually like the storage model where everything is an account. Makes it pretty easy to pick up. Haven't written any programs yet though. 

The RPCs don't feel as robust. Using Helius, but calls are slower than on an EVM and have random failures from time to time so have to account for that.

Indexing is a huge pain because of the insane amount of transactions (good problem for the network). Took me about a week to build a token indexer that can even stay at head. Storage, and in turn costs, grow pretty quickly though.

Need to index myself because no good APIs available for consumer-oriented general-purpose token data. 

Before I even started the exploration, had so many EVM people telling me how much it sucks. And overall, it's honestly not bad at all. Most of the people talking negatively about Solana dev either (1) have never actually built anything there or (2) weren't around for EVM dev when it was the same age as Solana.

Posted some thoughts about building around Solana the other day. Only been a week, so I still have a lot to learn about the ecosystem

why is it always choo choo mf and never lets go girls

just ran into @ted and @dwr.eth at erehwon!

Working on Farcaster and Warpcast. Longer thoughts at https://dwr.email

Time to revisit a few predictions I gave a year ago.

The dot com bubble fully leveled out by the end of 2002.

Check out this cool bot I stumbled upon today. It's quite interesting!

.@AskVenice team has sold over $10.2M in $VVV tokens...

I've tracked all the $VVV team wallets and identified their clusters.

They received tokens 4 days prior to the launch, and insta dumped right after the launch.

And Coinbase launched it day on 1?

ISRO has achieved its landmark 100th mission! From Aryabhata in 1975 to the Chandrayaan and Mars Orbiter Mission, India's space agency has consistently expanded the frontiers of space exploration. Here's to a legacy of cosmic success!

Warpcast

Farcaster

If you don’t like the “make money” consumer value prop for Farcaster—what do you think is better?

Reply with a suggestion and rationale. 

Like replies that resonate.

It kinda feels like Warpcast is ready to be public by default, no account, shareable with any link.

Anyone else feel this way?

This is a tough-to-sell visual value prop (and is circa nearly a year ago).

if you're mad at coinbase for not listing your favorite token wait until they have no listing restrictions, then you'll be real mad.

About to drink a glass of real milk for the first time in a while and I couldn’t be more excited

Damn this was so good, honestly might have another

Is that crazy on a Monday night?

1/ The future of seamless onchain apps is here.

Abstract’s Global Wallet is now live—a unified identity system for its ecosystem, built with @privy. 

Users onboard once, fund their wallets easily, and carry their assets + identity across all Abstract apps. Here's how it works👇

Could not be prouder to help power the Abstract Global Wallet with 
@privy. One wallet you can use across every Abstract app. 

Working with the Abstract team has been a master class in thinking through the pieces needed to build an incredible developer ecosystem for everyone -- lots more to come!

Congrats @cygaar and team -- thank you for pushing us continually!

Software engineer. I explain crypto topics in simple terms.

Personal update: I recently joined the /ponder team as an engineer to work on polls and social predictions.

Super excited to build on Farcaster full-time and contribute to an awesome project!

Very excited to add @benbassler.eth to the Ponder team - he’s one week in and already working on some of our most important problems. 

+1 for hiring FC natives.

We answered the call to action. For more details, reach out to our team at info@blackrhinoprotect.org.

I'm sick of the financial nihilism on X so I'm going to be more active here instead. 

Farcaster feels different, a place where builders are building a new way to align incentives between one another. I think that's what excites me most about it, but it still feels like it hasn't been unlocked yet.
