Farcaster lost half of DAUs in 5mo & can't figure out why - raised $150m at $1B val from @paradigm @a16zcrypto - hires only staff level engineers at $300K+ salary this is the new economy 🤡🤡

Google Reviews are Broken! who is building trustpilot/glassdoor for onchain reviews? - trust is scarce in the era of bots/ai/paid-reviews - huge demand for calling out the bullshit of companies - source first-hand anonymous real reviews from users & employees - stays forever on blockchain (aligned incentives with users) might be the next killer app from web3 after polymarket

Getting better at building mobile applications from scratch. this year, I built foodcheck: a consumer app for nutrition-aware folks trying to eat-right. Executing the whole 12 yards myself. just talking about it with my friends a lot, to improve and iterate. market-research+ design+ frontend+ backend + brand + community+ current version in Apple Testflight: https://testflight.apple.com/join/YL3EeH15

No doubt on crypto having successfully solved this acute problem of bypassing cross-border capital controls 🙌🏻

agree except it will make you fall into this seductive but wrong belief: "if i build it, they will come"

real hard to balance what to listen to and what not to. there is really no formula for this filter other than a trained intuition

Farcaster still does NOT have PMF as a social-network for normies 1 thing that separates good founders from great founders is to have the humility and courage to accept when your thesis is wrong. it's very hard to ditch the sunk costs and accept publicly that you made a mistake and course correct before the ship sinks bit by bit. but that's what it takes. this week, I found @dwr.eth as lacking in this, sadly.
