must listen on how to approach consumer apps

✧ Sparks: a new unit of measurement for Ethereum.

We spend an increasing amount of time dealing with really small numbers onchain.

We need easier words and numbers to make it accessible to more people.

Sparks are simple and energetic.

users psychologically prefer having a million of something. see shitcoins (wen $1 so we become millionaires?) 

ie it's better to have 10,000 sparks than 0.01 eth, but it backfires when collecting, as paying 10,000 of something feels worse than 0.01

great idea tho! i'm curious to see how this grows

“Consumer Crypto”

Drop the crypto. Just consumer. It’s cleaner

Actually now that we’re here, let’s drop the “Consumer” also. Just . Much cleaner

Finally some peace and quiet

use this app, you will get some tokens, what else do you need?

just app

often i think crypto narratives are nothing more than our excuses to raise money and experiment with them

almost none lasted after the cycle ended

another banger

duolingo amazes me every time

one "funny" thing about hiking in transylvania is that you never know when you'll encounter a bear in front of you 🐻

an app that lets me input the defi action i want, but executes the opposite

i'd be so rich rn.....

No, I don't want to mint my friend's picture

Not for $30

Not for $3

Not for 30¢

Not even for 3¢

Feels like a forced narrative

we have three different apps to put our pictures onchain, and we can earn from them

it's a really great experience with a lot of benefits for creators, but on the other hand, for the avg user, the main feature is collecting your friends' pictures

comparing it to current social media, like instagram, it's basically displaying every post you like on your profile

would you want that? zinger has a point

Introducing Composer Actions

- Create frames while you're writing a cast
- Discover new actions right in the app
- Available on Warpcast mobile
- Developers can now build and submit an actions for listing

Here's a demo of the new animated GIF action (!) by @0xconca.eth featuring a GIF from @miguelgarest.eth.

okay, this is smart:

- protocol: open; everyone can build their own actions
- product: retention; users don’t need to go anywhere else to find the content
- users: easier to cast; everything will be at one click

instagram pays you in exposure, zora pays you in eth

vibe check 8 with the homie @tldr is live on @pods!

https://pods.media/vibe-check/vibe-check-8-tldr-bracket

absolute heater of a conversation.  Massive thanks to Tim for taking the time to come on and dig into consumer narratives that I'm currently obsessed with. 

make sure to follow /bracket and hit up bracket.game to try out, what for my money, is the product setting the bar for great UX today

then come hang for the official watch party in 30 minutes at 11:30am CT with /gmfarcaster on @unlonely!

1:28 - consumer narrative/Bots are a conspiracy theory

15:35 - onboarding to web3 is dumb
18:35 - should users know they’re using crypto?
22:00 - comforting users
24:30 - mitigating risk in the user experience
26:06 - doing things with friends / farcaster as context for community

"how do you onboard someone into web3"

that's a really dumb question.. cos how would you onboard someone into the internet?

I’ve been exposed to some drama about “Rob” and “Andrea” on “Love Island” via clips of podcast interviews that were posted on tiktok that were then posted on Twitter. And that shit is crazy ngl

"why do i need to install a new app?", "would this one onboard the mainstream?" 

we should change our perspective. how would we onboard the mainstream if we haven't even figured out how to retain crypto-natives?

we should take it as a short-term experiment. our crypto bubble isn't as big as we think, and no big company today envisioned millions of users in their first days

relax and keep testing in prod

this channel might have the best pfp so far

this has been my experience lately: the main feed has poor content, but when i click on channels, i find the content i want to interact with

social apps should have notifications for creators, with detailed insights

imagine getting *all the data: who you reached, what their profiles are, what they collect, etc
