An update on protocol priorities going into 2025. We think a lot of interesting things are going to be built onchain soon. Farcaster should be the programmable and credibly neutral social network that brings users, developers and blockchains together. But what does this mean tangibly?

DNS is a good decentralized system, but it isn't "strong form decentralized" in the same way that Ethereum is. One of the reasons we built identity on Ethereum instead of the web.

The birthright thing is going to be really bad for Indian immigrants. I was in the H1B queue for 9 years, didn't get my application approved yet. Fortunately, ended up marrying a US citizen and became a resident. You now can lawfully work in this country for 10 years, and have your children not be legal residents.

ETH's tactical problem is the L2 free market. It is a great approach from the perspective of finding the right technical solution and remaining decentralized, but the externalities eat away at the user experience, which is equally if not more important. There is simply no way for a normal user to understand what they are getting into with layers, chains, 7702 wallets, evm compatibility and bridges. There is a light at the end of the tunnel if we make blobs bigger, introduce account + chain abstraction, native rollups etc, but this is a massively complex roadmap and will take years to realize. In that time, Solana just works (tm) and is eating ETHs lunch.
