Introducing Minimized Mini Apps - You now have the ability to minimze your mini app just above the navigation bar at the bottom of your app - Especially useful when you want to check out someone's profile from the rewards app - Sound stays on while minimized—probably some alpha for audio / livestreaming / WebRTC developers. Bring back Tavern!

You can now send a direct cast as a note whenever you send tokens to someone using the warplet! For now, the direct cast includes an explorer link, but we'll make this a better embed in the future.

Token pages got an upgrade to show more context! If possible, we show: - token launcher - token creator - token description, if Zora/Rainbow - creation cast, if Clanker - your balance We’ll continue to iterate on this, let us know what’s missing!

Priorities this week 1) Make it easy to do stuff onchain — frames + wallet; this is the differentiating thing for Farcaster and we will continue to lean into this 2) Growth — rewards + invites + new user onboarding flow + airdrop offers — make it more likely people invite new users and they stick around 3) Protocol upgrades — make it easier for other apps with existing users to integrate Farcaster, e.g. Snapchain 4) Creator onboarding — outreach and onboarding to help increase / diversify the amount of interesting content on the network
