Crypto Apps and Decentralized Social
summary
Overview of concrete claims and demos: Farcaster runs an embedded wallet by default so users can pay, mint and tip inside clients; micro-economics already work with one-cent microtips via L2s and apps like Tipin/Noise. Examples include an EIM mint paid in USDC, a prompt tool with 418 generators, and a viral warplet mini app with 49,000+ warplet mints that earned ~\$100,000 for its builder. Notes real challenges: tiny user base vs. mainstream, spam, onboarding and moderation.
