If you're interested in sending direct casts via an API, please reply with a quick 1-liner explaining what you'd use it for. Will be making a group to get design feedback on these APIs.
2. Greg announces the revival of farcaster.network – Co-built with Zach Terrell, they took the opportunity to rebuild it during Farcon.
https://farcaster.network is back! @zachterrell and I originally built it in 2022, but it's slowly crumbled over time as Farcaster grew from a few hundred users to tens of thousands During Farcon, we finally took the time to rebuild it from the ground up and are excited to be working on it again https://farcaster.network
3. High Fidelity User Feedback at FarCon – Varun noted the unique insights gleaned from face-to-face feedback at the convention.
An unexpected benefit of FarCon was getting very high fidelity user feedback. We talk to users a lot over the internet, but there's a marked difference when you can go back and forth in person. It's changed our roadmap this week by quite a bit!
4. FarHack Finalist Projects Featured at Closing Brunch – Ted shared how the community-driven approach at Farcon was validated by active participant engagement.
we were adamant that the closing brunch would feature FarHack finalist projects and that the community would vote for the winner they said, “but at other crypto conferences, no one but hackers care about the hackathon” we said, “farcaster is different” today you proved us right :) gg @dylsteck.eth @matthew
5. Top Priorities for Farcaster – Shared by Varun, top items include decentralizing channels and improving feed quality.
Priorities this week: 1. Decentralizing channels 2. Direct Cast APIs 3. Improving feed quality 4. Scaling Hubs to 1M users 5. Improving app reliability

thank you @ted and everyone that made farcon such an electric week. tag someone that deserves credit so they can reply and we can shower them in degen tips.
7. Degen Client Suggestion by BetaShop – Urging users to start building alternatives and different solutions to grow the platform user base.
my advice for those complaining about warpcast: Stop casting and start building. build something better or even just something different that’s needed The user base is getting big enough now that alts can gain some traction a month ago a Degen client would have instantly gained a solid base Build smth
8. Woj Supports dwr.eth in a debate – Discussing the decreasing barriers to entry for developers in the Farcaster ecosystem.
i’m standing fully behind @dwr.eth in this debate there is many many many many people in the world and barrier to entry farcaster eco as a dev will imo decrease over time (through better infra and companies working on it) as long as there are customers on the networks, new clients and experiments will be built https://warpcast.com/dwr.eth/0x16de8c53
