Farcaster

degen and ham chains were mistakes and they set the whole farcaster ecosystem back

im posting this after reaching out to @jacek and @deployer privately, but since they both answered that they have no plans on sunsetting the chains, i want to give a heads up to all other teams building their economies on farcaster:

don't launch you own chains

1. fc ecosystem only has a chance to work if there is a lot of liquidity in one place
2. separate chains fragment the liquidity and only benefit the passive token holders (less sell pressure) and mev bot operators (arbitrage between chains and pools). actual users pay in UX, mev and fees
3. devs who want to launch integrations with these projects are fucked because most infrastructure providers don't support these small chains

im building supercast wallet and it's beyond frustrating to see how close we were to having something truly great and how much harder it is to build a good UX on top of these projects because they selfishly decided to launch their own chains

We don't need any other Farcaster clients tbh just like we don't need any other chains 

Hard enough to onboard people to Farcaster at the moment let alone all the silly clients people come up with

Both of these things have contributed to declining conditions

As much as L3s have been co opted and used to raise money etc. that tech is actually extremely valuable and sequencer revenue is a great way to scale a model. This chains are cutting edge in that sense and that often translates to a rough start and figuring out product market fit. 

But one thing is for sure no one needs another FC client, the one we have isn’t scaling and they have unlimited funds. A slightly different but not reply version of that is the opposite of innovation.

Poor take. Can you share an example where sharing sequencer revenue from an L3 is "Scaling the model" ?

Literally no one is using these L3s, they are a complete ghost town of activity.

If infrastructure gets to a place where its easier to move in and out there are some interesting use cases with low fees and low costs. Right now for Degen and Ham it makes literally ZERO sense. More of a narrative than a use case

Any take hiding behind an anon account is a bad take.
