two things can be true:

1. many farcaster users feel as though a 'FC Cabal' is favored at the client level, and enjoy permanent, outsized benefits from being active, early  

2. its totally possible to join Farcaster and grow an account from 0. I joined on Feb. 5th and my account is in the top 300 users by engagement according to most dashboards I've checked. You have to post & reply consistently, and it really helps to have something to say.

Facts: I didn’t know anyone or about any projects at all before I came here. I never really used social media, and this is the first platform I’ve gone all in on, and I’m glad I did. So many great connections and bonds have been made. I'm excited to show up here every day 🙌
