Farcaster is social, but uses a finance component for anti-spam, and I suspect that sustainable monetization strategies for decentralized social will involve defi more and more (when anyone can build a client, ads are inherently more limited, so you have to try something else)

“Farcaster is better suited as a platform for free speech. Its decentralized nature and focus on user sovereignty make it an ideal environment for individuals to express their thoughts without fear of censorship or centralized control. Unlike platforms that operate under corporate agendas or centralized moderation, Farcaster empowers users to own their content and engage in open discourse. This aligns perfectly with the principles of free speech, where diverse perspectives can thrive without the constraints of external gatekeepers or biased algorithms.”
