Is Farcaster over? Real user turned to bots. Like this if you agree and are a bot by nature...

Personally went from using 10 mini apps a day to almost none at all What mini apps are you still using today?

In 2014, there was a vision: you can have permissionless, decentralized applications that could support finance, social media, ride sharing, governing organizations, crowdfunding, potentially create an entire alternative web, all on the backs of a suite of technologies. Ethereum: the blockchain. The world computer that could give any application its shared memory. Whisper: the data layer. Messages too expensive for a blockchain, that do no need consensus. Swarm: the storage layer. Store files for long-term access. Over the last five years, this core vision has at times become obscured, with various "metas" and "narratives" at various times taking center stage. But the core vision has never died. And in fact, the core technologies behind it are only growing stronger. Ethereum is now proof of stake. Ethereum is now scaling, it is now cheap, and it is on track to get more scalable and cheaper thanks to the power of ZK-EVMs. Thanks to ZK-EVM + PeerDAS, the "sharding" vision is effectively being realized. And L2s can give additional and different kinds of gains in speed on top. Whisper is now Waku ( https://docs.waku.org/ ), and already powers many applications (eg. https://www.railway.xyz/, https://status.app/ just to name two I use). Even outside of Waku, the quality of decentralized messaging has increased. Fileverse (decentralized Google Docs and Sheets alternative: https://fileverse.io/ ) has seen massive gains in usability over the past year. IPFS is now highly performant and robust as a decentralized way of retrieving files, though IPFS alone does not solve the storage problem. Hence, there is still room to improve there. All of the prerequisites for the original web3 vision are here, in full force, and are continuing to get stronger over the next few years. Hence, it's time to buidl, and buidl decentralized. Fileverse is an excellent example of the right way to do things: * It uses Ethereum and Gnosis Chain for what they are good for: names, accounts and permissioning, document registration * It uses decentralized messaging and file storage to store documents and propagate changes to documents * The application passes the walkaway test: https://github.com/fileverse/walk-away-ddocs (even if Fileverse disappears, you can still retrieve them and even keep editing them with the open source UI) This is what we mean by "build a hammer that is a tool you buy once and it's yours, not a corposlop AI dishwasher that requires you to register for a google account and charges a subscription fee per month for extra washing modes, and probably spies on you and stops working if you get politically disfavored by a foreign country". If you think this criticism of corposlop is hyperbolic, well turns out, it's literally a concatenation of these three: * https://mein-mmo.de/en/user-buys-new-dishwasher-can-only-use-some-features-if-he-subscribes,1186249/ * https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2024/nov/05/air-fryer-excessive-surveillance-smart-devices-which-watches-speakers-trackers * https://www.irishtimes.com/world/us/2025/12/12/its-surreal-us-sanctions-lock-international-criminal-court-judge-out-of-daily-life/ In 2014, decentralized applications were toys, hundreds of times more difficult to use in web2. In 2026, fileverse is now usable enough that I regularly write documents in it and send them to other people to collaborate. The decentralized renaissance is coming, and you can be part of making it happen.

Check out my crypto portfolio on Sliver!

$iiccii on beeper now �� You can set $iiccii as the token you get paid in on Beeper Thanks @beeper @to @overcooked.eth

Super wild if $Base is released on @clanker fr ��

There’s a future where Zora fully decentralizes (app, rewards, builder codes) and the team steps aside from the outcome. Interfaces are free to bloom. Or disappear. Same for farcaster or base tbh.

been saying it on twitter but i think base needs to pivot hard here. the creator coin stuff is fine but clearly they've lost the battle to Solana for now. release $base onchain via homegrown $clanker in a presale, work out a deal so clanker gets smaller fees or for a limited time, or forever, fuck it. that would ensure the Farcaster protocol, the thing TBA runs on, gets funded forever. create a wealth event throughout the base builder ecosystem. create half a dozen clanker stars that rocket into the top 150 or so. or you could do it on echo and it'd be just fine and corporate, negative aura. you did pay half a billy for it i guess. but there's real magic here doing it the other way and it would create so many new stars and so much more attention.

Higher was never ashamed of the coin. There was just no one who stepped up to take charge (tragedy of the commons), no sustainable revenue source, and no marginal buyers. Unfortunate reality. Still one of the best coins to ever do it imo after scanning thousands of coins over the past 2 years.

The great thing about $DRB, beyond being the token launched by Grok, is that when it goes up, your favorite AI agent Bankr wins as well Incentive-aligned fees ��

Never in my life did I think I would own a bank vault in Ohio that has permission to release a ledger from a safety deposit box only if 5 people physically visit the bank and provide biometric auth... and in that ledger are the signers to a couple of bitcoin Whole set up cost me millions but the peace of mind is worth it
