Warpcast

Warpcast is giving out $5 each day to the top 100 casters.  

Rewards are given based on the amount of engagement your casts get divided by the number of active followers you have. 

We'll run this experiment through the end of the year to see if it drives people to create more interesting content for Farcaster.

this is huge

getting paid directly in USDC means 1) no claiming, 2) no thinking about price, 3) no worrying about selling, 4) getting myself a "free" sweet little treat later today* — all of which are better experience for mainstream users

*gjusta croissant, duh

I thought it was gonna be erewhon self serve

that last part, “mainstream users” 🎯

incentives will bring millions onto fc, and they’ll stay bc of the communities here - plural

Is $5 is really enough to buy a gjusta croissant

you’re not accounting for my discount for being a regular and always asking the servers about their day :)

I got the notification from my wallet then the notification from warpcast.  So cool!  I'm just an itty bitty account and I still made it!

i see Ted is already anticipating her 5 bucks

*insert an obligatory gjusta croissant joke about Americans using literally anything instead of the metric system*

Really curious where the USDC is coming from - account/storage payment, moxie, the VC funding or smth else entirely

Now we just need this to be USDGLO so that the stablecoin also funds public goods both in crypto and IRL💅

It going to be really good for newbies like me
It’s a smart move that includes everyone

That $5 sign up fee looking so well spent again

And would the treat be (and I’m just guessing here), a sorbet??😏😏

still seems to have the same problem as moxie, ie 'unknown' users don't count

Have you convinced them to accept USDC with the coinbase wallet yet?

That’s $500 everyday
Look how far farcaster has come
