zk without use case is useless

profiles without use case are useless

tornado cash works, "fractional identity" doesn't

linkedin works, hundreds of linktree clones don't

no one cares about your identity

no one cares about verifications

no one cares about zero knowledge

no one cares about social graph either

oh damn i missed it, what post and response?

An interesting idea for a Farcaster app. 

Login with Farcaster and like casts with zk proof. Power badge required. Data verifiable but stored off chain.

hm, let's say we wave a magic wand and zk ux stops sucking, i.e. the proof generation is instant, verification too, so ux is on the same level of sucking as sending a tx on a blockchain

i still think no one would care if it's zk or centralized authority under the hood, i.e. zk is *not* a differentiator for most apps

I agree with @warpcastadmin.eth in principle though — zk is a very tough UX and so you need to find something that is really important to people, and not just marginally useful in order to create something that gets usage
