Farcaster

I think it's really important to lean into the onchain interactions that are happening between users. 

Your working theory (as I understand it) to onboard new users is interesting content. I believe that onchain interactions are a rich source of highly interesting social content that is basically not being surfaced at all in the app today. 

Here's a specific example: I'm in a groupchat with @zinger that we're using to trade. The man is an animal. It's engaging to watch him enter and exit positions. That wallet is probably connected to his Farcaster account. 

Why can't I see that activity on his profile? It feels like a slam dunk and a huge differentiator to other social networks. 

Show me when someone sends ETH to someone else. 
Show me when someone mints someone. 
Show me when someone is up 10,000x on a meme coin. 
Show me when someone uses some new DeFi protocol or makes a loan. 

There are apps attempting this, but w/o Warpcast's reach or eng chops. Eat their lunch. 

It's all there in the open!

this thread has many imp points which deserve a thoughtful dialogue.
- whether crypto txns/activity feed needs to be a first class citizen on warpcast or other frens apps and interfaces take care of it?
- 3rd party apps on FC graph need to fight for distribution vs. warpcast the conundrum is real - building for the ecosystem vs. fighting your own battle (raise vc$, compete with WC)
- if growth is the north star. either WC takes full responsibility of bulldozing forward (fast iteration) OR let 3p apps build new experiences/vectors to bring net new users. For the latter, 3p devs need to be set up for success. 
- if Warpcast feed is the breeding ground for growth and app frames are the most imp lego for 3p devs.

quick clarification - can as devs i modify warpcast UI/ UX? No right? 

The only way to leverage warpcast is via frames & mini app afaik - seems a bit limiting especially in the context of the conversation by phil.
