The Tea, Served HotToday took a hard left. Two of the biggest projects building on Farcaster, Rainbow and Clanker, just turned the timeline into a boardroom. I will try to be fair here. I use Clanker, I hold some $CLANKER, and I have used Rainbow. Below is a clean timeline and what it could mean for holders, builders, and the broader Farcaster economy.

Big day. The Fed is poised to announce a rate cut (or not, but I think they will), and markets can snap either direction on the headline and press conference. Either way, it is a good moment to zoom out. We have been deep in the Farcaster bubble, so today I am widening the lens and will start tracking a few things beyond our usual loop. Let us see what is shipping, what is raising, and what is worth testing.

Happy Friday! As we head into the weekend, remember to touch some grass, have fun, and let’s hope the markets keep ripping.

At the last day of September, I woke up. It is finally time for October. Big plans, big ideas, big month. It is the final quarter of the year, and the question lingers: is the prophesized Uptober true? Will we finally see all-time highs in crypto this quarter? Most people say yes, and the signs are lining up. We will see.

Bloody hell. Markets flushed around 2 AM EST with roughly 2 billion USD in liquidations reported so far. Can the dev fix this? I thought we signed up for a bull market. Jokes aside, I am still optimistically bullish on the future of finance. I want to come back to this note in a few weeks because the price action looks disconnected from sentiment. Pico bottom or another leg lower first? Maybe choppy for a bit, but I think the worst is probably behind us and higher highs are on the horizon. On...

Happy Friday. Markets dipped but I remain optimistic about where the future of finance is headed. The past few days felt a lot like early 2021 again: risk on, active bidding, and back‑to‑back launches across Base, Binance, and beyond. People are already speculating on MetaMask, OpenSea, and Base token. Wen Farcaster token? We will see. I am also noticing crypto content break out beyond X and Farcaster, which is a good mainstream signal. Could it also be a near‑top tell? Maybe, but I still thi...

The Fed cut 25 bps, and the market mostly had it priced in. My read: we probably drift higher into early next week as the dust settles, but position sizing still matters. It has been quieter on Farcaster with everyone flying back from Basecamp, yet Crypto Twitter lit up with two big launches: Syndicate and Aster. Syndicate became the first token to debut on Aerodrome’s launchpad, which is a huge statement for Base. Aster launches its token and is positioning itself as a Hyperliquid rival on B...
