A new revision of the Snapchain paper is now out. It might be one of the most important improvements we've made to the Farcaster experience. - Message delays will be fixed - Adding apps will cost nothing - Removing apps won't delete data https://warpcast.notion.site/Snapchain-v2-Public-10e6a6c0c101807aadfacbcddda8ce4f

Exciting! Voters & validators will be purely a public service? I’m also curious about the twitter comparison near the start. Based on the numbers, twitter has 500 bytes of state growth per user per day, while Farcaster’s is 20k. Why such a big difference?

hard to find factual sources, though https://www.perplexity.ai/search/please-provide-an-accurate-est-PuwnwbMGTOS03vA.Y6555g#2 Twitter processes an enormous volume of tweets daily: Approximately 500 million tweets per day Around 7,000 tweets per second Using the 561-byte estimate, this translates to: Daily storage requirement: ~280.5 GB (561 bytes * 500 million) Annual storage requirement: ~102.4 TB
