GM and welcome to Year 2 of GM Farcaster! We started off Year 2 of GM Farcaster with Jared from the /advocacy channel sharing efforts around crypto legislation and regulation in the US. The rest of the week, we shared more around the State of Farcaster report by Snickerdoodle, which if you haven't read yet, you really should! It pulls together their own research plus onchain data to show the value of building on Farcaster. And we celebrated the premiere of Vitalik: An Ethereum Story which was all over the timeline.

This week, we'll be chatting about the upcoming channel changes and we'll also have two special guests: Deana from Boys Club on Wednesday and Naomi @afrochicks on Friday. If you're awake at 8:30 am ET, jump in our chat for the best experience while watching the show! See /gmfarcaster for links and reminders.

GM Farcaster episode 157, September 18, 2024

Thank you to our premiere partner, Base! If you’re at Token 2049 be sure to drop your pix in the /base channel on Warpcast to participate in their latest round.

In this podcast, Nounish Prof and Adrienne deliver a chaotic yet entertaining 29 minutes of Farcaster news, discussing everything from spam filters to community events in Singapore. Highlights include a memorable segment where they lament missing out on the Farcon Asia conference, make fun of social media platforms’ name changes (looking at you, X), and reveal that even Vitalik Buterin has his karaoke moment, belting out an Ethereum-themed song. It's like if tech news had a quirky morning show spin, complete with random llama sightings.

Thanks to our Conversation Liquidity Patron @cattown! We loved chatting with the team last week – check out the link in this cast: https://warpcast.com/cattown/0x07deaa64 And go check out the /cattown channel and explore this fun world of pixel cats! Cat.Town

From our ChatGPT intern: In this episode, the hosts express major FOMO over missing Ethereum documentary premieres and sprinkle in some humorous crypto community banter, complete with "crop top chaos" and the confusion of seeing someone sport green noggles on a green screen. The conversation shifts to channels, with narrowcast model being scrapped after tests made home feeds emptier than a Monday morning meeting. Instead, the current plan is for channels will have one feed, reverse-chronological style, where 10 moderators can act like bouncers, keeping out the riff-raff and hiding the slop—like a gated community where you can look in but need a key to post.
