GM! Whoops, we missed a week but here's a recap of the past two weeks which have been a bit quiet on the news front BUT we had two great interviews with Jacek chatting POOF, POV and Degen, and Saltorious giving us a recap of Bankr's Runtime hackathon -- if you missed them, catch them below.
AND if you missed it, we celebrated 3 years of GM Farcaster with an episode recapping this year plus a bit of old lore too. AND you can mint our highlight reel on Manifold! Thank you to everyone who has supported us this year and the two prior. This year has had lots of ups and downs but we appreciate those who've stuck with us even during the quiet times.
AND tomorrow we'll be back at 11:30 am ET/8:30 am PT with @abram from Splits joining us at noon - you won't want to miss this one!
