Holiday week AMA! What's on your mind?
What % of on-chain activity do you think takes place on L1 vs L2 in five years? Both in terms of volume and $
Which metric are you most encouraged by? Which metric are you most looking to improve?
I’m curious how Farcaster is funded and what models are envisioned for sustainability?
any products that you've seen lately that you think thought stuff from first principles?
how do you think about social graph vs interest graph design for farcaster long term? It seems that many networks that start off social inevitably evolve into interest-dominated networks at scale, but maybe farcaster could be different bc composability -> multiple experiences?
what are your unfiltered thoughts about @jacob's motion to change farcaster to farcast?
How do you plan to keep the quality of discourse on FC up once +5% DAUs becomes 10x what it is today?
What would you most like to see 3rd party app developers build on Farcaster?
What are your thoughts on the tension between transparency and privacy on public blockchains?
Wow I just found out my Farcaster birthday is the same as your irl birthday. Now I don't have to remember it can just let you do the work!
How do you mental model/segment the venture investment opportunities in web3?
Which part(s) of FC (ecosystem, client(s), protocol components, etc) deserve the most attention in 2023?
Do you feel that it’s FC teams’ responsibility to moderate for diversity of thought? Loaded question but genuinely curious :) and loving FC so far!
How are you thinking about securing FC against a) bots and b) squatters?
1. Apart from social platform, what are the sectors of the Internet you want to work at? 2. Top 3 books every aspiring founder or someone at management role should read! 3. Are you open to partner/collaborate with upcoming L1s in the near future ?
I think that these are username squatters: @polychain-cap @polychain @polychaincap @j-p-morgan @jpmorgan @facebook @sony
What's the incentive to run a hub? Do fc expect devs to hack on hubs like building clients?
How Do you rank fellow protocols: nostr,ssb,at/bluesky,urbit,solid,web5/tbd?
Have you considered farcaster more as an ap, ask protocol? Injecting social into any app rather than imagining farcaster specific clients ??
Outside of family, what is the one activity that gives you largest “thriller” in life?
For all the things developers can build on top of Farcaster in 2023, what are you most excited about?
Is there a license to use the Farcaster trademarks ie the arch symbol and name?
Is this a react native app? It seems fast but also it is built quickly by a small team so I can’t tell. Wondering for an app I am about to build
wats ur endgame for farcaster. like is there a point where you guys retire and the protocol is entirely managed by the community. A dao perhaps.
what would you say to a young kid wanting to improve his craft of engineering? build more is a generic piece of advice, is there something you've discovered in your own pursuit of crafting more that you'd wanna share, your observations, anything
What will be the reason or catalyst for the next mass adoption for web3 social media and other web3 products in general?
I'm really enjoying Farcaster, so thank you! I was trying to understand how can we compete with the network effects of existing networks like Twitter. What would you say can attract the crowd here?
Do you think there’s room for non-EVM computing architectures in the future of smart contracting L1s? Or does Ethereum swallow the world? What use cases could you see adopting Solana, MoveVM, others?
is it possible to build a farcaster hub that only maintains a subset of the network state? if so, is it possible to avoid having a distinction between “clients” and “hubs”?
What gets people talking about things controversial / important to hash out?
