If you're enjoying my writing, please share my newsletter with your friends in crypto and join the /Area51 channel on Farcaster and my Telegram group. Gramajo’s CornerI've been reflecting recently as I completed my two years of doing this. You may or may have not noticed I didn't send an issue last week. This was for two reasons, one there wasn't too much I wanted to say and I didn't feel like spamming peoples inbox with something I wasn't really proud of. Instead I tried something new, which was sending a quick update of the bangers and calling it a day. The other reason is I've been thinking that my content is eh. gramajo @0xGramajo 2+ years in, 150+ pieces of original content. I am coming to terms that my content is mid. Seeing the SuperRare announcement of them building an L2 taught that I need to move to building something ppl love or hate bc that is better than what I am doing now. Onward and upward 6 8:56 AM • Aug 8, 2024 Don't get me wrong, I hate clickbait titles and triggers just to get people's attention. It really isn't my style but I really do enjoy pineapple on pizza. Twitter has also been nerfing my content like crazy or again, my shit is just not spicy enough. Either way, I think I need to change it up, I am exploring what that means but for all those who support me via hypersub, feedback or words of encouragement, thank you. Completed our first community round on area51 and we had lots of entries and lots of DEGEN to give away. Was definitely a fun experiment and one I will continue doing.FarcasterGramajo👽 on WarpcastCompleted my first /rounds over at /area51.

Coop is probably one of the bigger voices when it comes to music NFTs and have been a big advocate for them for a while. He recently dropped a new site that makes it easier to collect and reward collectors of Music NFTs.FarcasterCoop on WarpcastProud to debut the new @cooprecs platform at cooprecords.xyz Home to our onchain music catalog of 300+ songs from over 100 artists. It's powered by @sound-xyz + @boostxyz + @stackdotso under the hood with @coinbasewallet + @privy for easy onboarding. Collect great music. Earn rewards. Give it a spin!Vinnie Hager showed us a preview of a mural or art installation he worked on for a new apartment complex that looks epic. Vinnie's style is so dope and it is amazing to see at this scale even in the muted colors of cement.I've been exploring doing some shirts and one of my favorite companies in the space must be reading my mint as they released a tshirt buying store for people to just customize and launch their project while having digital mirrors on the blockchain.FarcasterIYK on Warpcastwwworldbuilding made easy.

As mentioned on this newsletter before, Nounspace is a myspace take but with the legos of Web3 and it is really fun, you can check out mine here. I tried messing with it before but the experience was a bit rough but in a short period of time, the experience to messing with this has gotten way better. If you want to build one just let me know.Farcasterwillywonka 👾🎩 ⌐◨-◨ on Warpcasthappy birthday nouns! see y'all at the tavern party. i'm tuning in from an iFrame fidget on my /nounspace homebase for extra meta ⌐◨-◨ check it out @brennen.eth! https://imagedelivery.net/BXluQx4ige9GuW0Ia56BHw/b3d3c88d-3e12-4cd6-e6b7-b1af27755100/original!wen Lambo? Well it seems that one of the most premium brands in the world will be joining in the metaverse soon enough. At this stage, this should not surprise us, but instead what we must ask ourselves is will these brand half ass it or will they embrace the culture of web3, the internet and memes. So far it seems Lambo is willing to at least try with the messaging, will definitely keep an eye out for this. Animoca Brands @animocabrands We are thrilled to announce our partnership with @Lamborghini! Together, we will drive digital vehicle culture forward to shape the future of brand engagement in the automotive industry. @TheMotorverse is in on it Wen Lambo animocabrands.com/automobili-lam… 990 5:04 AM • Aug 8, 2024 Friction is one of the easiest ways to kill a great idea. Web3 has this issue right now with so many steps to just "mint". Selling an NFT requires a bunch of steps, seriously count them. Solana has really focusing on making this experience easier and easier with their great design and now they are taking it one step further with minting a photo. I don't think it is a coincidence that in the same week, Surreal another app on Eth that helps you digest web3 media also launched a similar feature. Phantom @phantom FYI: You can mint photos and videos as NFTs for free in Phantom. Just take a picture or video (or upload existing ones), add a name and description, then mint! 1,085 2:39 PM • Aug 8, 2024 Surreal @surrealapp Snap. Mint. Earn. Introducing our new Camera feature: Capture moments, upload photos onchain, and earn from mints. 91 10:44 AM • Aug 8, 2024 Similar to the stories above Stephan launched a Story like frame feature on Farcaster. Based on a previous Tavern spaces with The Late Night Crew, Dan really likes Instagram and what they have done on changing user behavior on their app when they borrow features from other apps. Maybe this one of those features that gets yoinked and incorporated into the main app if it takes off. To be honest, I think I would be down as I don't really post to the grid on IG mostly stories. A great example can be seen by Ted below as well.FarcasterStephan on Warpcastintroducing Stories - a farcaster-native stories app - each post expires after 24 hours - composer action for posting new stories (in review) - frames for viewing stories (see below) - sign in with farcaster on stories.steer.fun for same functionality as composer action planned: - basic editing tools - standalone (probably native) app easier browsing stories of the people you follow it's 3am and claude has been carrying me hard to get this over the line today 😮‍💨 http://stories.steer.fun https://stories.steer.fun/frames/stories/stephancillFarcasterted (not lasso) on Warpcasttrying out @stephancill’s new story frame, a feature i imagined six months ago and every month since. thank you, stephan :) https://stories.steer.fun/frames/stories/!239TechIf you are reading this on Chrome or are a user of Chrome, do yourself a favor and move browsers. All these companies want more data from you, some more than others. Blocking or not allowing uBlock origin to continue functioning on Chrome is a step in the wrong direction.

Cybersecurity researchers have uncovered a critical vulnerability in cryptocurrency hardware wallets dubbed "Dark Skippy." This attack demonstrates that a compromised hardware wallet can potentially steal a user's entire seed phrase in just two transactions, a significant escalation from previous assumptions. The method involves manipulating the signature process to leak parts of the secret seed, which an attacker can then reconstruct. While not yet observed in the wild, Dark Skippy highlights the crucial importance of using genuine, verified hardware wallets and maintaining strict device security. You can read more below about this attack vector. nick ☃️ @utxoclub Today we disclose Dark Skippy - a powerful new method for a malicious signing device to leak secret keys. With a modified signing function, a device can efficiently and covertly exfiltrate a master secret seed by embedding it within transaction signatures. 543 11:03 AM • Aug 5, 2024 Last bit on the bad news, I've told yall before about Tether but also keep in mind that any clear/transparent blockchain this will continue to happen. Privacy isn't something that only criminals want and don't let anyone else make you feel like that. Michelle Weekley @michelleweekley So USDT became a global CBDC governed by US Federal Regulation… And no one is talking about it? 59 11:20 AM • Mar 1, 2024 A ton of artist/creators have been moving towards taking more control of their audiences (rightfully so) which I am all for. With so many of them exploring ways to incorporate crypto into their phygital world, I found this solution interesting for anyone who has their own sites.

I swear I have not had this much since I used to go to meet ups when I first go into the space back in 2013. Taking a playbook from Farterminal, Stxcity is looking to enable a twitter feed. Stxcity is an easy way to launch a coin on the popular BTC L2 and this twitter feed completes the user experience. This is one of my favorite features with Farterminal with a channel feed. Spin up a twitter handle for your project and you are off to the races with your coin in a web2.5 world. khoanguyen.btc @khoanguyen_btc I'm developing a new feature: Twitter Feed for @stxcity. This will enable deployers to showcase highlighted tweets on the bonding curve detail page, helping investors safeguard against scam projects. 41 6:49 AM • Aug 6, 2024 Again, I absolutely love this space. We can pick and borrow ideas from other platforms and build them for our own chains. Bountycaster has been a popular way of doing tasks, work, and building an onchain reputation on ETH. The STX/BTC community has their own equivalent they have been working on and boy oh boy does this look good. Online reputations mean a lot and this is step in the direction for the space and hope that by the time we get to the bull, we have mature tool to really show those who are deep believers of this future we are going towards. xyzero.btc 🟧 @xyzerobtc On the new profile on platform V2, we could let people add status updates like a tweet or add tweet link as a quick update. Would do you think? 24 1:32 PM • Aug 5, 2024 Hypersub continues pushing the boundaries of what an onchain Patreon can do. At some point, I really do think that Hypersub will have so many new features to empower creators that it won't even be a question of fees between the two but what features you value.FarcasterJonny Mack on Warpcastnew on hypersub.xyz: reward deposits now ✨anyone✨ can deposit funds into a hypersub reward pool. active subscribers will be notified immediately and can claim on a pro-rata basis. great for collectively sharing upside and winning, together as a treat, i just deposited ~$500 to all active @buoy subscribers 🤑Ubisoft partnerd up with Arbitrum to bring an onchain game to life. I am still hyper bullish on gaming and web3 and how that brings more users onchain. Ubisoft tends to either make hits or duds so hopefully this is a more of a hit than a dud haha.

Party I feel has been doing a great job of grabbing a complex onchain action and making it easier. Want to create a DAO but everything feels a bit too daunting, they have a tool. Want to launch a coin but not certain how to do it without rugging your users or want to give them confidence, they got you. All with a chat on the backend, so I am really curious what this tool will be/do. FarcasterPartyDAO on WarpcastWe know what you're thinking. "PartyDAO needs to release a new product next week." With prices like these, that's a lot to ask, but we'll see what we can do. And that's based.Big fan of footy and Nouns FC came across my timeline I was intrigued.
