An interesting Farcaster idea:  what if apps paid for storage, not users? 

- Apps buy a chunk of bytes.  
- Free to allocate to casts, reactions, follows in any way. 
- Free to assign to users in any way (fixed rate, free) 
- Lower cost by avoiding "unused storage"

does it mean we're finally moving towards more granual storage approach?

Can user buy a chunk too or it will be available only for apps?

Can an app be a market itself in that case: buys cheaper, sells cheaper to the user (like with gift cards)?

I think overall I like the idea because this gives an answer for people saying you need to pay for storage to try farcaster: just use another client which gives initial storage for you for free!
