69 Reasons I Love Farcaster 1. The people here are _real_ (except the bots). Apparently pseudonymity doesn't make much of a difference, or perhaps even enhances the ability to make relationships. FC people feel more like *real people* than FB/X/Insta. (1 / 69) Continued...

You get tangibly rewarded by create value for others. Just build/write/create something others value. (2/69)

Being clever is not a pre-requisite. It helps, but it's not table stakes. Same goes for being attractive, dramatic, or whatever other social networks reward. You just have to _create value_. (3/69)

There are building blocks for coders everywhere. It’s like a gigantic playground. Like Frames! https://docs.farcaster.xyz/developers/frames/v2/ (4/69)

You don't have to be an "OG" to enjoy yourself or make money. I joined knowing ZERO people and had less than 300 followers on Twitter. (5/69)

Talent density is off the charts. Brilliant people to learn from left and right...and most people are extremely approachable. https://warpcast.com/afrochicks/0x3ef1fbec (6/69)

"Farcaster eats first" If you do want to make money trading or getting in early, there’s so much alpha on here. (see /clanker, /airstack, /veil, /nativefun, /degen, etc). (7/69)

Warpcast’s like button morphs depending on the text inside. For example, if I write rainbow, the like button will turn into a rainbow. This also works for wowow and degen. (really hoping one of these works) (11/69)

@bountycaster was built on top of Farcaster and makes it dead easy to use the network to get help with work, get more attention to a question you might have. Or on the other end, find hackathons to participate in, new jobs in the space, etc. (also the founders are really great people) (12/69)

Sometimes people tip me $DEGEN for sharing my runs. I think I’ve made more from this than some professional track athletes! (unfortunately also a commentary on professional track athletics, but nonetheless!) (13/69)

FC ecosystem projects like @alfafrens use the Farcaster social graph out of the gate to bootstrap their app. Lots of other creative applications take advantage of this as well. (16/69)

Speaking of Japanese radio shows, there are nice sub-communities in different languages. Most people still use English, but I can get my foreign language fix if I want. (21/69)

Towards the end of my first month, I made a frame called “Degen Memory Lane” to do a technical exploration and one user tipped me 10,000 $DEGEN. This was over $300 at the time and blew my mind. (24/69) https://warpcast.com/zeni.eth/0xca2c3acc

There’s a channel called /the-arena, which works like a lightweight accountability framework…post what you shipped during the week or you get kicked out. It's light yet powerful for staying on course. (25/69)

I launched a /larry token called $buck (on a whim) and >80 people bought in to the party round. Most have since sold (which is fine!). More to do with this soon, hopefully. (27/69)

If you want more attention on a cast you make, you can use Moxie Earn, Degen Raindrops, or even Bountycaster to help spread the word. None of these were made by the Farcaster team, but they still work. (28/69)

@jessepollak is on Farcaster trying to help builders go viral. If you build something cool on @base, there’s a damn good chance he’ll promote it. (29/69)

I met a designer on Farcaster who lives across the world. He designed the T-shirts for my 2yo’s nursery school! They came out so well. Some other Farcasters even pitched in to increase the amount we could tip the designer. (30/69)

Farcaster is still early enough where you have something naturally in common with other Farcasters. The FC meetup at Devcon really reinforced this. (34/69)

If it's a Monday on Farcaster, there's probably something cool about to be launched at evening Eastern Time. This isn't planned, there are just lots of builders making cool stuff. (36/69)

You get to see the product being developed in real time and even play a part if you want to. You can join Farcaster dev calls (they're all open) or even comment on their pull requests. It's fun to watch, and even more so to contribute. (41/69)

If you don't like Warpcast, you actually _can_ "make your own client". We're not even scratching the surface of potential here, but @super and @recaster-fc are taking shots at goal. (42/69)

Apparently Crypto Twitter (aka CT) is a wild place and Farcaster is more builder-focused. I've never really done anything on Crypto Twitter, so I can't say for sure, but there's definitely a pro-builder energy on FC that's hard to feel anywhere else on the internet. (47/69)
