👀 Viral Coin just dropped a TikTok-to-token DApp on Solana—proof that the competition in the SocialFi sphere isn’t sleeping!

While @farcaster has clearly been pioneering on-chain tipping and tokenized social rewards for creators long before this, I guess the question is, what's our next move? How do we continue to push the boundaries of decentralized technologies and ensure our favorite DApps remain the platforms where new ideas are born, not just copied? 

Time to double down on experimentation and community-driven features with all the open-source and stackable technologies that already exist in our space. I can't repeat myself often enough, but let's walk the walk, not just in building, but also in adopting existing tech!

Curious to hear: What would you like to build or improve to make our space more competitive?

I can double down on this message. 

Hit up the OP with your ideas of what's needed to push web3 forward. 

For me, it's more collaboration!

Are you both available next week for the DAO call? This would be a great topic. @earth2travis @durgadas.eth 

I know @tomatoxyz would be keen on it as well.

Wednesday at 10am PST

How might we help believers from the last cycle recover from DAO trauma?

Great topic for this next call!

Agree with @toly

~$5-10 airdrops don’t incentivize people who want to use apps with a utility token, they incentivize farmers who dilute the quality of discourse in the network

The degradation to content quality is not worth the DAU bump imo (empty calories)

Love this discussion. Really great insights from everyone!

I agree with Merkle team's premise that highly targeted airdrops are a meaningful marketing strategy. 

It's a key part of the "sovereignty economy", where users actually have agency in how they are targeted.

SSI is the key that Farcaster is missing to close the loop, but they are working with the right mechanism at least!

Dogs

Proof of the doggy king in my house. I named him Zeus 🥲. 

At this point it is clearly my fault he thinks himself to be above heaven, earth and my pillow 🫠

This isn't my dog but he decided we were best friends while camping together 🥰

It's right in the name. This is real impact!

Bullish small groups of ppl organized around a single passion fighting through poor governance to achieve mutual goals.

Bearish hyped token launches that pump and dump, benefiting those that extract the most and leaving those looking for a shared purpose left with nothing but unmet expectations.

A lot of people remember Purple DAO from when there were like 1500 people on the network and everyone knew everything that was going on and we were the only funding source at the time, so our moves were especially noteworthy. The network is much bigger now and there are much bigger funding sources, including Crestor Rewards and people sometimes think we died but Purple still exists and its members passionately yet quietly still do what they can to help the protocol grow. Most recent any by organizing, contributing to, fundraising, building a mini app, operating and voting in the latest retro funding round in partnership with /octant. 

Our treasury is small but our members passion for the network is big and our coordination abilities are probably our biggest value. More retro rounds with more partners.

I don’t think Nouns DAOs scale well and I don’t think we are a model of good governance and my DAO skepticism is at an all time high but when you have a group of people who come together over the love of something (Farcaster) it’s a beautiful and powerful thing.

We have an active group chat for meme nerd and if you are a member and not in it and want to join a pretty active dm group, let me know we’ll add you.

I'm torn between being excited about a new primitive functionality being displayed in a fun and engaging manner...

And being horrified at the example being set of best practices for launching governance tokens. 


All that has been, will be again 🤷

Vibecoded a little app to explore @coordinape and CoDAO social attestations, made on FC and read directly from EAS.

This version specifically explores what an aggregate score for Creators might look like, sampling #create, #music, #art... but you can search for any skill.

will keep banging on this, if you have suggestions hmu!

This is really cool for skill-based discovery! 

The power of a Social Oracle!

QC the first CD you ever bought.

I got this from Columbia House along with a bunch of others, but this was the only one I chose.  They were super popular in my Grade 6 class but I never heard them.  When I first listened I had no idea what I was listening to.  Great album!

My first CD(s) was also a Colombia House mail order. I don't remember exactly when or what else I got in that order, but I definitely picked all these ones very specifically. 

A lot about Livin, and a Little 'bout Love was a foundation of my understanding of the world at the time.

My first time calling in to a radio show I asked them to play the whole album. I wasn't even 10 yet, definitely didn't have permission to call the radio 🤣

(And yes, I have a hard time getting rid of stuff)

This oil change sure is taking longer than usual....

Ok hear me out: 

Do this, except use @farcastlexyz so that users can actually have protections and customizable terms using known trusted contracts.

I actually think a pre-clanker is a fantastic signaling mechanism for a community to indicate to a builder that it is time to launch.

If your community doesn't fund a pre-clanker then you probably should just focus on building.
