We're working on improving onboarding

1. Investigating how to make sign ups cheaper at the protocol level. Free is not possible because of spam. But we think there's a path to getting sign ups <$1.

2. Simplifying the Warpcast sign up process—fewer steps and the possibility for free sign ups if you verify your account (Warpcast still pays at the protocol level).

3. Improving the initial feed — a combination of better UX for finding people to follow and incorporating interests selected during sign up. 

4. Once we've tackled all of the above, we will revisit invite UX which is suboptimal right now.

Please consider my suggestion: if the listing price is reduced, the cost to create a channel should also be adjusted accordingly. I recommend lowering the channel creation fee from $25 USDC to $15 USDC or even $10 USDC.
