NB: Today’s drop is also another @betrmint first — our first piece of art minted on our own bespoke BETR contracts! When our friends and partners at bpdotfun recently announced they would be sunsetting their minting platform, @netnose sprung into action and over the past 10 days rolled our own internal stack of contracts that allows BETRMINT-featured artists to mint their work within our app without using any outside dependencies. We’re excited about this because it opens the door to working on a future self-serve ux for our partner creators that works seamlessly with our app. In the meantime though, the daily art will be minted as editioned 1155’s on our own contract, and collectors will be able to view them on Opensea by connecting their BETR-linked wallet there. Farcaster team is also working to index the contract so that collectibles will show up promptly in Warplet as well. Happy collecting (and spinning!)

Been meaning to share thoughts on Farcaster’s future for a minute… life gets busy. A Long Cast >>> Thoughts As qDAU stabilizes on the low end; I’m reminded that there are many reasons folks seek out and engage in social media or social networks. Perhaps it’s a way to learn, a way to connect with folks near or far, a way to network and job hunt or shill your project, a place to relax, a place to share. I rarely use social media until 2020. I didn’t use a cell phone before that. I would post pictures info on instagram or facebook for the farm from time to time and read weather twitter. The reality, is I didn’t need social media for my career, and when our kids were young, having a cellphone wasn’t needed either. Life was really busy, and time felt too precious to scroll. As the kids got older, and time returned, I joined society. These realities might skew my views, and perhaps discount them… I’m likely out of touch, though I’ve also watched how our crew members have evolved with their social media use over the past two decades… thoughts > 1. Any social network to scale in the modern age needs privacy functions. Aka the ability to limit your audience. Without it you limit the population that wants to actively contribute. I think many folks are inherently uncomfortable with public sharing. Dan refuted this and I recognize his experience, was much deeper than my shallow wading. Yet I see how folks engage, the group chats, private posts on insta/twitter etc.. and I think this is true today and will become even more true in the future. Ability to toggle public/private casting, blocking, etc should be daily settings. Realize this might need to be a client option vs protocol. 2. Ditto for private wallets. The amazing tech unlock that comes from cross app/wallet/social graph functionality is (besides the network effect) what makes fc a sandbox for experimentation, creativity, and the like. 3. Group chats and the bells and whistles should be first class citizens for the tech stack. FC chat should be xmtp x telegram in terms of bots and in chat functionality - token gating, plug ins etc. 4. Young and old people will drive growth, aka the people with an abundance of time. If time on social doesn’t directly benefit your career development, it’s difficult to continually expend much energy during the early child rearing years. Real life is just too great for many folks. I don’t see how the platform can grow on scale without a more active user base from young adults who can set trends for the future (and importantly build networks and relationships they care about for a long tune ahead). 5. From my vantage point the challenge with decentralized tech /social is you don’t always get the best in class integration… paragraph should be easy as pie to incorporate here from a user experience - if it was native to the fc tech stack it would be; yet as it is now it alongside, audio spaces, etc don’t get polished and the experience remains fragmented. Same could be said for video integration, audio etc. 6. Think bot/agent integration offers further opportunities for fc - if done well. Proof of human seems somewhat necessary for labeling etc. ** I’m not a tech dev, have zero idea how hard and if this is to implement or the costs of maintaining. No energy to edit for clarity here; just a Thursday night ramble. Continue to think Farcaster has potential and exited to see its evolution. cc @rish @cassie
