## Summary

Farcaster's proposed Storage Delegation feature would let an account hand off each storage unit it owns to another account. The article gives Warpcast as an example: an app could rent a thousand units and delegate them to a thousand users it onboards, without charging those users. If an account turns out to be a bot, the app can reclaim that storage and reassign it later, which the article says lets apps cover storage costs for users while correcting mistakes in judging which users are genuine.

## Article

Storage Delegation is a new feature that would let an account delegate each storage unit it owns to another account. 

An app like Warpcast could rent a thousand units and give it to a thousand users that it onboards without charging them. If an account turns out to be a bot, it can reclaim the storage and hand it to someone else later. 

Apps can easily front the storage costs for users because they can fix mistakes in underwriting "good" users by re-delegating the storage to another new users.
