Worked on a small mini app over the weekend - buy data eSIMs with crypto!
The prices are cheaper than industry standard for most countries. Check it out and would love any feedback!

you can either solve for A grade discovery, or A grade trading experience (read: conversion)
doing both unlocks gold
doing both also is easily distracts u from nailing one
doing both also requires patience
hot.cast.money is actually v discovery oriented for users than txn led
quick buys couldn’t solve what we think automated buys may solve
how do we get the $45m idle in warplets to start moving?

launching /noice tomorrow + a bunch of features to the hot token mini app by /castmoney
we're all-in (and how).

a core belief is that a lot of intangibles around the world will be tokenized. attention will be the #1 target. starts with
a) tokenizing your content,
b) your distribution and
c) probably access to you.
there will be a lot of failed experiments along the way but that’s exactly how real use cases emerge right?

yeah I’ve always argued how calculating delta from mcap is so much more convenient than keeping track of 6 decimal price points
in 99% case they both have a beta of 1

A/B testing product variants [called flick] with 2 tokens:
we're split by 2 different variations of this product we're working on around programmatic tipping + individual creator tokens with a time fun like functionality.
dropping 2 videos explaining each variation. both videos, will have a tying token. the one that has higher # of holders in 24 hours, wins and we hand it to you in 72 hours post unanimous, community decision.
50 likes and i'll drop these vids on zora tonight.

wait why can't i buy warps from my warplet yet????
programmatic tipping is non existent on warpcast. i like your post, but i want to reward you real $$'s for it. user to user. likely automated. leanest UX of all time. i should be able to set my tips for each like, comment, retweet, follow i make

ted, there’s a mini app which launches $ted (given to only 4 farcasters rn)
- each like, cast, re-cast, follow by you sends them 10/20/50/100 of $ted
much like amps x time. $ted launched on clanker.

hot take and personal opinion: get rid of cast action button and just replace with tip button set to $0.25
make it as simple and as intuitive as possible, cast actions are really cool concept but too confusing and too much work for the average user
LET US TIP
like we used to do with warps but now do it with USDC

content is ephemeral. and incredibly abundant. you could equate it's abundance to money, but money, is a standardized barter, while content is not. there's more content pieces each week than the TOTAL number of content pieces in the world 21 years ago.
you're likely looking at 400m pieces of content pieces published each day. also, content has the shortest shelf life. you're going to see 0.0001% of content pieces will have value over, say, a year or a decade [ie, if @naval's how to get rich without getting lucky was a coin, or @balajis.eth's purpose of technology / exit > voice]
you're ideally looking at a new wave of free markets / new asset class, like what art was in the renaissance, but here, each piece has more liquidity / virality compared to then [which also means that while outcomes remain same, ie 1/1m piece works, there's way more pump n dumps]

try to argue against content coins from first principles.
if a video on tiktok has millions of views, it has value.
why should a single platform control that value?
why shouldn't that value be explicit?
why shouldn't the creator benefit from that value?
seems good to me.

some stats & insights from week 1 of launch:
• conversion funnel is leaky: 4,689 views → 2,678 token page visits → 960 cashin reached → 138 success. that’s ~2.9% conversion from view to mint. not bad, but not great. making $10k from this would require ~$2mn of txn. not happening in bear at least.
• frame is sticky: 442 added vs 8 removed. people like embedding it. this is our growth vector.
• rageclicks + fails = UX debt: 140 rageclicks vs 143 fails. almost 1:1. this is a clear signal that something’s broken or confusing at the cashin step. we ran into some bugs that got fixed.
• notifications work: 294 clicks from notifications. we're doubling down on this.
• autocapture is high: people are exploring, but not always converting. maybe the frame is too passive or not guiding action well.

before the next bull arrives, you're going to see so many mini apps by the /castmoney team that serve unique purposes, all tied by a common token,
so much that u will never step out of fc for context on the token -> social graphs -> automations -> notifications
1 mini-app solving for a feature so well u will name us in ur will

We need a movement for offline spaces, just like walkable cities.
Faraday cage environments where phones and laptops simply don’t work.
Libraries with pencil and paper and no distractions.
Laptops without WiFi chips, so you can type offline and then sync back manually via USB or Ethernet when you want.
Restaurants with phone lockers at the front, where everyone must check in devices beforehand.
What else?

yes it'll come soon
the best form of distribution is a token, yes, but i'd rather do it when the utility is crystal clear
we're not broke, nor are we here for the short term
we're here for the long run
we'll do it when the product & markets align

learning is like a colour wheel
if all you could see was black and white, the world would be bland
each time you learn something new, you're adding colours to your intellectual palette
the more you learn, the more colourful the world becomes
what you know determines what you see in the world
