Socialfi is not a social app with finance / transacting signing in it.

Socialfi is the financialization of a following - buying and selling of accounts. So Friendtech, Scoop, Drakula, BitClout, etc.

Not Farcaster or Lens, which are open social graphs that you could build socialfi products on top of (like Scoop).

Another way to define socialfi: is the financial component (followers trading social accounts) built into the protocol itself?

Yes: Friendtech, Scoop, BitClout

No: Farcaster, Lens

Because Warpcast is not a protocol and has no inherent "buying/selling of social accounts" in the UI, it is not socialfi.

does socialfi limit itself to only speculating on accounts? for me, it includes what we're doing with zora, rodeo, moshicam, etc. if an interaction with media triggers a financial transaction, that's socialfi

interest in football, ecosystem growth, econ, investing, chess

If Uniswap adds a feed of the memecoins your Farcaster friends are buying, is that socialfi?

If any DeFi frontend adds social context, is that socialfi?

Is Zora socialfi, since you can mint what your friends are minting?

All of the answers here are no. That's too broad of a definition and unhelpful as a term.

Everything will be socialfi and then the term is unhelpful. Are all those you mentioned also DeFi?

no term makes sense outside of our bubble. i don't like the term SocialFi tbh. for example: Zora is SocialFi but also incorporated liquid markets, so that's DeFi. Should we call it DeSocialFi? 

those that spend time thinking about terms just waste their time imo, we even had to took out NFT in order to onboard users and tell they are digital media. No one will understand a scenecoin, layer 2, smart wallets etc... we can have multiple terms for native users, but for the avg ones, we must simplify it
