11. Fundraiser Complaints
Rainbow team addressed misinformation on YouTube about potential rewards for running a Farcaster hub.
Please spread the word: there are 0 economic rewards—currently or in the future—for running a Hub. Only run a Hub if you: 1. Find it fun 2. Find it useful for your project or your business There's no surprise or gotcha that comes later. All of the YouTube video tutorials are lying to you about a potential reward. https://warpcast.com/wazzymandias.eth/0x7dfcb1e2
12. Question on Non-Investor-Focused Social Content
Coopahtroopa debated if non-crypto-native content is necessary for Farcaster's success.
Does FC need non crypto-native creators and content to be successful? Or does the TAM of crypto-native projects and behaviors grow exponentially enough to make FC successful if it becomes defacto social protocol for crypto as a whole?

16. Prompt on Spam Reporting Incentives
Zinger suggested rewarding users for reporting spam, turning bots against each other.
Would love for this to also include “If a user gets more than a certain number of reports, they will be reviewed” More likely that a spammy user gets reported across multiple casts rather than a bunch of reports on a single cast since I’d guess most reply reports come from the cast author https://imagedelivery.net/BXluQx4ige9GuW0Ia56BHw/b6e6686e-d5ec-469a-77da-78f4a8c20d00/original
