I've was a little skeptical of the trading-first focus on Farcaster, but the negative vibes about FC being wallet-first are missing the big picture
onchain, your wallet isn't just the place that money goes, it's self-custodial keys to your digital identity and as more digital and RWAs come onchain, your wallet becomes the only app you need
technology has a way of converting nouns for physical things into verbs or capabilities in a digital context. words are less about "what it is" and more about "what it lets you do"
your "phone" isn't something you call someone on, it's a powerful computer
your "wallet" is not just a money pouch, it's an intent-signing device carrying your money, reputation, media, access tokens, and your agency
imo wallet-first isn't a product choice, it's the inevitable direction of any app that settles onchain
someone build a game around a multi-sig where you have some assets + 1000 signers with M = 1/2N+1 threshold + time limit and see if they can coordinate how to divvy up the assets
Two ways to get on @seerspace early access list:
- Hold $SEER
- Have a @choochoo NFT and meet (if you haven't ridden yet, seriously what are you waiting for?)
introducing Seer, prediction market aggregation and arbitrage
@clanker initialize $SEER
I've been cooking on the protocol design for a bit now, and will be launching Seer v1 soon, a social-first prediction market aggregation router. v1 will pave the way for the real special sauce: prediction market arbitrage opportunities that users and the protocol can take advantage of
also in development are native-markets that utilize a matched-pair minted position system, allowing users to short overbought sides of a market and lock in mathematically guaranteed profits in cross-venue positions upon resolution
$SEER will function as a protocol token with profit-sharing mechanisms through a staking system, with trading fees helping bootstrap native-markets

just signed up for a new farcaster account for a project i'm launching and the entire onboarding flow is trading related now?
it's honestly so lame, i couldn't care less who has the highest PnL, that is not the signal i'm looking for in who to follow
the vibe here is dying
i have a feeling the upcoming $UNI supply shock when fees start being collected is going to be like nothing we've seen before
$1T in yearly volume (and counting) comes out to ~$500m in fees, with $UNI being burned 1:1 to collect them
sincere thank you to everyone who has donated, given advice, or just reached out with kind words I'm very grateful to be surrounded by so many great people, you all feel like an extended family
in the last week I've raised ~6% of my current goal: funds to pay for the next round of motions to hopefully bring this BS to an end
aside from donations, if anyone knows a NY attorney who would be willing to work with me on some sort of payment plan vs. an upfront retainer fee, or in an advisory role in the event I have to take this case on pro se, that would dramatically change my current situation
the current uniswap fee switch proposal is brilliant
when i first saw it, it read like fees would be used to burn $UNI, which I felt was gimmicky but that's not the case. fees can **only be collected** when $UNI is burned
this turns $UNI into a proper rev-sharing token while also reducing circulating supply
on top of that: internalizing MEV through auctions to bypass fees, aggregator hooks from other DEXs
plus unichain recently added blockchain-agnostic token support with universal protocol, positioning them to be a decentralized onramp for everything from BTC to ZEC—that's directly driving both EVM and non-EVM liquidity to Uniswap
cool shit
