It was 25k, but I have enough to post. Maybe I already have? You'll never know...

@anontokenbase - could it it be cool to lower the @anoncast posting fee to the number that Woj dropped to the @supercast community?

(30K -> 25K)

its a meta game, if you're skilled or lucky (both?) you get to withdraw funds from the game. its social, make friends, pass the time, it does not feel intimidatingly hard, or technical - even though actually trading memes has been dominated by technical, complex crypto tools. 

its a cultural phenomena, people watch streams of people trading memes, it forms the basis for a sense of humor. It's 4chan adjacent but not quite so incel. You can sort of be a normie and also buy memes. a lot of people play with smaller amounts of money, it also probably changes in nature somewhat based on region, class. It is no near as distinct or separate from Farcaster than people seem to imagine.

it's the primary culture that's emerged from crypto social networks

people who do not trade memes are not better than people who do, they just like doing other stuff! I trade memes sometimes, and I read a lot. I like basketball too. We could be so much more normal about all this. At the extreme, its a gambling addiction.

Steelman of Memecoin Trading:

Come for the dream, stay for the team; A meta social game, where people make friends and create stories together.  

^ This can be true, while also having downsides, depending on how people are using and how the game is architected.

I’m giving 30k $ANON each to 10 good posters to onboard them to @anoncast. 

30k is the minimum to post to Anon - currently worth $300.

Who are the best posters you know?

I'd love to see @balajis.eth unleashed anon

🌶️ I don't think memecoin traders are in it for a "profit" any more than lottery ticket buyers are. They're spending money to chase the thrilling idea that their life might change not by a little bit, but by a lot.

Looked at this way memecoins are just products. People are fine w spending money to use products?

Thank you, $ANON 🙏

In the dead of night, the venture capitalists are watching "introduction to zero knowledge cryptography" on Youtube, rushing their investment thesis on $ANON. we will not let them steal our coins.

Excellent idea. Yes please. 

Rerunning the “super followed accounts” phenomena of the early FC days, (fractal) repetition downward to each channel (aka. namespace:parition within the network). 🌳

New “hero” accounts scaled per channel.

Love this @tldr

As FC accelerates on a path I disagree with I find myself leaning ever more into my personal network of humans I've met irl.

I'm not morally opposed to memecoins but it adds tons of noise and drives the interesting conversations I want to have into gcs even more

Cozy Corners become important as Farcaster explores its “social finance network” stage

Money is powerful. The opportunity to make it can overwhelm other conversations at some points - just like in real life

But channels are a tool for people to block out that noise when they just wanna explore interests w friends

Claiming my @socialtoken airdrop and crediting @july with my social airdrop for having such a generous, bright, and balanced spirit.

Claiming my @socialtoken airdrop and crediting @tldr with my social airdrop as he was the first person I’ve met IRL from Farcaster and he made me feel like home at this corner of the internet. A man of a big heart and a sharp mind.

Don’t know what social token is yet but I love that it’s soliciting these kinds of moments.

Where do I do it?

Base

three keys to success on @base:

1. make something people want
2. build a dead simple experience
3. bring new people onchain

🫡

seeing these revealed at basecamp was probably my most memorable moment there of the whole experience

(yes there was tons of great people and play there too – but remember, im a nerd)

New on Warpcast: invite directly to channel

- Gift a Farcaster account
- Select channels that the user will be immediately onboarded to
- Share via a link or QR code (no more clunky email flow)
- Improved claim flow with an invite code (see next cast)

Bringing people immediately into communities is amazing.

Related idea, and hear me out, but what if we also had something where they could instantly follow I don't know – 50, 60, 70 people. This so called "auto-follow" could be a little controversial, but really is kind of a win-win for new and existing users. With the channel context we'd have more information on people they might be interested in.

Something to thing about.

aaaaaand hit 20m with haste as was preordained

and that's just the tip of the tingle folks

anons about to get a lesson about anonymity set being more important than some fancy cryptography

Opinions will be stated.

Preferences will be revealed.

We will see.

@anoncast is not for posting random low quality stuff.

It's a banger factory + money printer: post bangers --> number go up.

Incentive alignment. If you post crap, you are anti-$ANON.

Stop footgunning. Start posting hits.

It's important to stand for something.

Bangers are something.
