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?

1. Frames will help devs bootstrap new ideas Test new ideas by putting them in a frame. It is fast to prototype and easy to get distribution to a wide, crypto friendly audience. Popular frames can be turned into full fledged apps or even companies over time. We're working on a new standard which will: - Make it easier to build interactive experiences - Have wallet integrations to take onchain actions - Make frames more discoverable and reusable @deodad @horsefacts.ethh @cassie and @blockheim are working on this, and it will ship by Dec 2024. https://warpcast.notion.site/App-Frames-Public-12a6a6c0c101805f84f0ca8bb27047d6?pvs=74

2. Snapchain will make it easier to build apps and infra Apps are falling out of sync with each other as the network is getting bigger. This is a problem for infra providers like @neynar as well as apps like @supercast that use them. Snapchain solves this by eliminating errors and creating a path to reaching 10x scale or roughly 5000 TPS. If done right, it will be much easier to maintain and keep in sync. @sanjay @dynemyte @sds are working on this, and it will ship in Q1 2025. https://warpcast.notion.site/Snapchain-v2-Public-10e6a6c0c101807aadfacbcddda8ce4f
