Farcaster for builders

A substantial portion of the Ethereum community uses the "sufficiently decentralized" social network Farcaster. The platform cleverly combines features from Twitter and Reddit, plus the crypto magic that you can't find anywhere else (AKA "programmable social").

It's been fruitful for Splits to make connections on Farcaster — come join our channel 🌱

We're not the only ones. Consider YB's experience building and debuting an experimental app called The Terminal: "100k higher, 1300 mints, 343 downloads, 25 winners, 1 week." It's a compelling case study.

Today we're highlighting a handful of other channels for builders (dev or not), both broad and niche. Here you can find productive and entertaining conversations about this new onchain world that we're creating together.

Founders#

Like it says on the tin, /founders is for anyone who's created a company (whether startup or small business) to commiserate, brainstorm, celebrate launches, and discuss all aspects of spearheading a business.

Product#

/product is equally straightforward: "A place to talk about software products and the craft of building them."

Lounge#

Run by Cameron Armstrong, "Lounge is the thoughtful conversation you wish you could overhear." Practical prompts answered by people working on cool projects (of various sorts).

Ethereum Account Abstraction#

You may have picked up that Splits is obsessed with smart wallets right now. Are you also obsessed with smart wallets?

Dev#

"Cultivating curiosity for software developers," while making fun of ourselves.

Consumer Crypto#

The startup ouroboros is all well and good, but how about serving normal customers? (Take "normal" with a grain of salt.)

Base#

A channel focused on the L2 with unstoppable enthusiasm. Turns out, a lot is happening, all the time! Related: /build, /base-builds, and /onchainsummer ☀️

Proxy Studio#

In his channel /openventures, Proxy Studio pursues "farcaster ecosystem r&d," keeping tabs on everybody's work, posting commentary and reviews of his experiences trying every new app that comes along.

Farcaster Builders India (FBI)#

An ad-hoc collective of "Indian founders and builders painting the next wave of consumer crypto on Farcaster." These guys cannot slow down, they've always got something fun in the works.

Onchain Tools#

When in doubt, do it onchain.
