Farcaster, a web3 social platform, has introduced 'Frames' which can be built in less than 100 lines of code, allowing users to create wallet-connected polls, galleries, and questionnaires directly within the social feed. This feature bypasses the need for third-party minting platforms. Developers @wbnns and @zizzamia have provided a template and utility functions to facilitate the creation of onchain frames on @base. Farcaster has further incentivized adoption by making sign-ups free for US-based users, who can join without onchain fees by scanning a QR code. The platform's active user base is reaching new heights. A recent hackathon at @variantfund saw a surge of developer engagement, with Coinbase notably contributing open source code to frames within 48 hours.
Farcaster - the leading web3 social platform is taking off following the launch of Frames (mini-apps embedded in social feed). We have no idea if they will ever tokenize but it's always good to be on top of the current meta. You can get 50 warps by joining with the link below… https://t.co/3sEIpcwZGB
Worth point out: the checkout is powered by @CommerceCB. Shout out to @jessepollak for having Coinbase move faster than most startups. Nearly all of the most interesting Farcaster Frames have been built with @base. https://t.co/9L7tOg0k7y
shipped this frame with @christopherwxyz @thisiszinger at the @variantfund hackathon this weekend powered by @farcaster_xyz frames and @coinbase commerce https://t.co/uQ8EYFXr4d
The frames launch by @farcaster_xyz is enabling the kind of Web3 consumer experiences we all have been waiting for https://t.co/SWGFlo86zK
One of the biggest challenges in Web3 is balancing composability and risk Two recent innovations have opened the door to create novel social experiences while tackling this dilemma Lens Open Actions and Farcaster Frames
web3 composability is inevitable. developers can experiment and build new features, and apps can inherit the improvements permissionlessly. composability means combining on-chain, off-chain, and open source in new and intuitive ways. the design space is huge. we're just early. https://t.co/fa8QiZ503s
Warpcast + @farcaster_xyz is a canary. When one social app breaks through on a new platform, another 10 apps are coming & the market is 10x bigger than most realize. Crypto infra is ready and is just waiting for great builders like @dwr and @varunsrin to build great UX.

Builder energy is clearly back. Quick recap of the Frames hackathon yesterday at the @variantfund office in NYC Some of the highlights - 50 people hacking in person, hundreds online - @eth_call with a super helpful frames demo - A bunch of awesome frames built (see thread) -… https://t.co/D85sycOvTc
consumer-accessible AI will be the pivot point for web3 social media vs web2 web2 has had AI for a while, and used it to show you what they want you to see they won’t want you to use your own AI to curate what you see web3 social media won’t care, and will likely encourage it
Devs, Be inside the ecosystem that is helping devs like @farcaster, @worldcoin, and more. 100+ @base builders were funded with 10M+ OP in @Optimism RPGF3. This is the beginning. No better place to be an L2, no better place to be a dApp builder, no better place for a user.
don't sleep on @farcaster_xyz the key to recent success has been new features not possible on web2 social media, powered by permissionless builders channels, custom clients, frames are the start this is how web3 social media will win: by doing things web2 won't let you do
The @Optimism Collective is about growing the Superchain of OP blockchains Everyone is picking OP Stack, why? 🔴Superchain will allow users a seamless experience instead of fragmented bridging across L2s, devs gain access to RPGF, airdrops, state-of-the-art security, & more
Lads, @farcaster_xyz is an actually good product and is easily winning the decentralized social race. Get on it - https://t.co/Hpmvfzpl9n
joined Farcaster! seems to be the only Web3 social app worth looking at for non speculative usage https://t.co/184AJoVDSe
so proud of how fast the @base and @coinbase teams shipped since frame friday. over the weekend: 1. grants for based frames 2. pizza for frame hackers 3. uftilities fo builders in onchainkit 4. a based frame guide & tutorial 5. a frame builder chat unreal. links in thread. https://t.co/hdvFvfG0xS
Cool to see Coinbase contributing open source code to frames within 48 hours on a weekend. h/t @jessepollak https://t.co/v6jkHH6KtT
recommend all Solana enjoyoors give Farcaster a shot I've enjoyed it quite a bit so far all attempts at decentralizing social media (regardless of chain) are awesome https://t.co/rEnG4tisDB

Great time to be alive, and web3 social is just getting started https://t.co/zXWhNOsz2b
One of the most promising charts in crypto right now: @farcaster_xyz active users pushing ATHs. Decentralized social is perhaps the most ambitious moonshot in crypto. It could be the pivotal moment for the industry if it succeeds. The 0-to-1 moment. https://t.co/eGdcf4XVyA

Web3 social gives builders and creators new super powers. The ability to integrate actions within native content is one of them. @LensProtocol has Open Actions. @farcaster_xyz has frames. Here’s a great discussion on their difference and what that might mean for you.…
if you're building a @farcaster_xyz frame, @wbnns and @zizzamia created a great resource to help you build an onchain frame on @base. includes a template for a frame in <100 LOC and a (fast growing) set of utility functions that make it easy to build frames with OnchainKit. https://t.co/X8sWa6zYJo
