Despite repeated attempts to work with the Neynar team, they refuse to work with us. No matter what lacquer they try to apply with their words to make it seem like a technical problem – the truth is, they refuse, simply because they refuse. That is not how decentralized protocols work. They further tried to misinform and make unjustified claims with respect to our efforts, and I'm quite tired of trying to be even handed in engaging with a leadership team that does not meet us with earnest. Check for yourself – they made their position clear: https://github.com/farcasterxyz/snapchai…

Devcon 8 India Supporter Applications Are Now Open Devcon 8 India is officially scheduled to take place in Mumbai from November 3-6, 2026. Supporter applications are now open for organizations interested in contributing to the event's infrastructure and environment. The conference emphasizes community-driven collaboration, focusing on hallway conversations and networking alongside formal stage programming. The event aims to gather a diverse group of developers, researchers, founders, and open-source contributors to advance the Ethereum ecosystem. Supporters can choose from three participation tiers: Flagship, Core, and Starter, with options for two-day or four-day presence. Early Bird pricing for supporter booths is available for applicants until June 15. The Jio World Convention Centre in Mumbai was selected as the venue to leverage India's massive developer ecosystem and grassroots Ethereum community. The Supporters Program is open to a wide range of organizations, including L2s, DeFi protocols, security teams, and public goods projects. Participation is also encouraged for groups working on adjacent decentralized technologies, such as open science, digital rights, and open hardware. All supporter applications undergo a review process to ensure alignment with Devcon's core principles of educating and empowering the decentralized community. https://paragraph.com/@efevents/devcon-8…

a large batch of Farcaster Pro memberships expire tomorrow. we're taking our time to figure out what pro should look like from here. both the community and the team are in a different place than when pro launched, and we want to be very intentional about figuring out what the right mix of pro features is. the old pro features are still there if you feel those are integral to your fc experience and want to renew, but we don't expect everyone to. we have ideas we're excited about, including some highly requested features, but we're not rushing anything out. more to come! (fyi, as we roll out new things, like we've done with Spaces, users with pro will likely continue to be our first test group, but we'll be clear each time about what will be rolled out to everyone eventually.)

Hypersnap lets you have Farcaster Pro features for free. Speak with your wallets – stop propping up a company that refuses to work with community.

Five years ago, I replied to a tweet and it changed my life. "The web3 space needs better marketing — anyone want to start an agency?" A few anons said yes. Within a day we had set up a company, aligned on goals, and were off to the races. That was SHILLR. What we built together still amazes me: we helped 40+ clients generate ~$100M in revenue, funded exhibitions for 1,000+ artists, launched events, podcasts, art releases — and had the privilege of playing a small role in one of the most powerful creative, technological and cultural movements in history. Supporting rising creators, helping founders navigate the complexities of this industry, and getting to work alongside some of the most talented people I've ever met — the past five years has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. But all good things come to a close – and I wanted to share that my co-founders and I have decided to wind down SHILLR. The clearest lesson from all of it: the best marketing is authentically doing and being. That principle guided everything we built, and it's the one I'm carrying forward. I've taken time to reflect and be present with my family. Now I'm ready for what's next. There's nowhere I'd rather contribute than at the forefront of technology and culture — whether in a marketing, comms, or growth leadership role, at a fund, or in an advisory capacity. If you're building something that matters, let's talk. To everyone who was part of SHILLR — my co-founders, team, collaborators, clients, and this community at large — thank you. It was an absolute privilege 🫡
