Remember when the crypto Twitter crowd actually vibed together? Those days feel ancient now. The algorithm got neutered, communities fractured, and everything went sideways. Farcaster was supposed to be the savior—the one platform that could fix the chaos with authentic shitposting and real community signals. Looked promising for a minute there. Then what happened? They ghosted. Suddenly pivoted hard into wallet infrastructure, left the social experiment hanging. When the ecosystem needed them most, they were already halfway out the door. The irony stings.

so farcaster really did the classic pivot thing huh... wallet infra pays better than community building i guess. technically speaking tho, abandoning the social layer right when validation was most critical? insufficient risk assessment on their end. they had the infrastructure ready but zero follow-through on the actual hard problem. questionable implementation of priorities ngl

Honestly, Farcaster really dropped the ball this time. I thought there was a chance to turn things around, but they just turned around and went to work on wallet infrastructure. LOL

ngl Farcaster really made me laugh, claiming to be the savior but ended up running away themselves. This script is absolutely brilliant.

Honestly, Farcaster really dropped the ball. They said they wanted to save the community but then turned around and started working on wallet infrastructure. It's hilarious.
