 This guy did a deep dive on Farcaster so we don’t have to. Farcaster just raised $150m at a $1b+ valuation with 45k daily active users that seem to be mostly bots. 

For context, Twitter has 250m DAU and is probably worth ~$50b. So Farcaster is valued at 2% of Twitter’s market cap with 0.02% of its DAU. 🤡🌎

Investors are going to burn billions on unworkable Web 3.0 apps while Nostr gets stronger by the day and grows organically. No blockchain needed.

 @zach is this guy missing something? I feel like this could easily be someone exploring nostr and looking for signal in all the bots

 blockchains are useful, just without the shitcoins
