S4 E8 | Sufficiently Decentralized Social Media w/Dan Romero

Rehash: A Web3 Podcast

On this episode of Rehash we sit down with Dan Romero, co-founder of Farcaster and Warpcast to talk about all things web3 social. We kick off the episode as Dan walks us through the evolution from web1, to web2, to web3 and he shares how web3 can utilize the best elements of web1 and web2 like permissionlessness and ease of use to create a better future on the internet.

To illustrate the potential of Farcaster and Warpcast, Dan explains the difference between an app and a protocol, breaks down the concept of sufficient decentralization, and shares the reasoning behind growing the Farcaster ecosystem slowly and intentionally. Tune in to hear Dan answer some questions from the community and leave listeners with the secret code for getting onto Farcaster.
