Three years ago I wrote a thesis paper on the true and false novel feature of DAOs. After years of observing the boosting and busting of communities the mechanisms they try to capitalize on, inspired by latest builders of communities on Farcaster, here is the latest reflections: 
https://paragraph.xyz/@glorias-nebula/the-hard-truths-of-building-strong-communities

great piece on communities, trust and tokens.

"the most surprising take comes from the memecoin space. The most active and engaged crypto communities aren’t necessarily those with the most sophisticated governance models—they’re the ones that have created an identity people resonate with. Memecoins work because they tap into an emotional layer of belonging, humor, and shared experience."

Community Onchain Virtual Summit Tomorrow, Thursday Feb 20 and Friday Feb 21, 1 pm to 2:30 pm brought to you by the /openrank team and /gmfarcaster! Excited to bring together these powerhouse community builders for a chat about building crypto social experiences for communities through Farcaster channels and OpenRank.

Joining the panels on Thursday are: 
@ted @humpty @sahil @shazow.eth @phil @eriks @plantsnft @jonathan @javabu.eth @ashmoney.eth and moderated by @gloriakexinwu and myself.

Thursday Feb 20 panels (tentative schedule):
1) The Farcaster difference - How to become a community entrepreneur? 

2) Progressive ownership for communities 

3) Why people stay and engage - How to build channels people love 

Panels continue on Friday at 10 am PT/1 pm ET. (see event frame for Friday and links in the replies)

thanks to @nounishprof and @adrienne for hosting talks with channel mods and community builders on farcaster this thursday and friday!

Cohost /gmfarcaster livestream Farcaster news show 🎙️💬 Founder Tenger Ways, bringing joy into work with DevOps practices 🤗 mom x 3 💗

Every community of sufficient scale can now set up its own decentralized AI models, its own crypto protocols, and its own social media.

communities can now have sovereignty over their tech stack (identity, graph, algos) and treasury (economic engine)

I hope you've been paying attention to the last 4 episodes of /openrank mini series

@sahil and his team have a very clear north start on what they want to build and it starts with Farcaster channels

Cura allows channel entrepreneurs to curate vibes in their channel to give their community a clear intent when visiting them

This is just the beginning!

Are you using Cura and channel leaderboards on Farcaster? 🫵

great conversations with @humpty on the future of channels, community entrepreneurs and doing cool stuff together on farcaster, because why not? 

@openrank always be cooking. something new coming soon.

break the mold and keep finding those hidden gems. rinse and repeat 💥 

1. you realize you're doing something that goes against conventional wisdom
2. there's group think and communal blind spots all around, but you see hidden gems and insights, which might be clear yet intimidating. 
3. you know and must believe that all it takes is perseverance, to keep pushing harder. 
4. these are the kind of problems you'd go to the end of the earth for.

...and you realize you're doing something that goes against conventional wisdom

Base

the future of @coinbasewallet:

1. help apps, coins, and content go viral
2. give everyone a reason to be onchain

who's ready to build it with us?

clanker ecosystem

cool new clankerdata from @openrank 

will be fun to think about this as relates to v4, games, interfaces 

Farcaster's social graph is powerful!

farcaster social graph + openrank = clanker scores

wallets, apps and agents can now use clanker scores to filter out and recommend relevant clankers. 

- search 'recently trending' clankers
- see 'who' is trading top clankers
- discover 'new' clankers in the last 24 hours based on your friends trading activities

Cura leaderboards make it simple for channel mods to reward and recognize contributors! 🎉 Automate engagement, track top performers, and build stronger channels effortlessly. 🚀

TOMORROW in the /cryptosapiens channel I am hosting an AMA with @sahil and @anmworld3 to answer your questions about Cura, its leaderboard and channel tokens

RSVP in the frame and share your questions in the comments

Sahil and Anchal will reply LIVE from 11am-12pm PST

DEGEN will be tipped at our discretion to top questions

https://events.xyz/42939e

drop your questions about openrank, cura, channel tokens or anything realted to growing/managing your community on farcaster

The /cryptosapiens newsletter is out covering the latest episode I recorded with @sahil and @moe where we looked at the tokens that came before channel tokens like Degen, HAM and Moxie 

Sahil says that Degen showed us the power of financial incentives to bootstrap community engagement, while Moxie proved that tokens can do more than incentize—they can connect

Moe adds that channel tokens now allow us to scale these innovations without every creator having to build from scratch

What are your thoughts? Are channel tokens the best way to engage your community and incentivize meaningful activity in your channel?

https://news.cryptosapiens.xyz/how-farcaster-tokens-are-paving-the-way-for-scalable-community-growth

tokens will become great social and economic tools for communities

boosts appreciated for sharing fc channel experiments on the other app

We are excited to share that CryptoSapiens and Nature have swapped 5 Million tokens each of $CABAL and $NATURE to support each other's missions

This is another first for channel tokens, and hints at a new frontier for growing and rewarding communities on Farcaster

More details… https://t.co/1g7idcGAZv

we're seeing a new era for crypto social, where communities can be sovereign over their technology stack and treasury

two communities on farcaster just started a new flywheel for social and economic coordination.
