1. Crypto

• Frames
  • v2 in early draft: https://github.com/farcasterxyz/protocol/discussions/205
    • all devs on the call excited about v2
    • unlocks new app interacts w/ frames and frame developers can also ask users to opt into notifications with warpcast
  • v1 will be unaffected, supported for now
    • expecting at least multiple months of support after v2 launch
  • Wallet
    • exploring ways to add an embedded smart wallet to make onchain transactions easy

2. Social

• Feed
  • Seeing uptick in spam, spending time retraining spam model
  • Quality of life improvements
    • working on improving image and media uploads
    • numerous perf fixes, page loads, app crashes

3. Protocol

• Snapchain
  • All resources on Snapchain, targeting functional alpha in December
  • https://github.com/farcasterxyz/snapchain-v0
  • Infra providers like Neynar will work closely on the deployment of the new sync model so Warpcast isn't the only source of truth
  • Sign in with Farcaster / Farcaster Connect
    • https://github.com/farcasterxyz/protocol/discussions/204
    • New auth method is focused on optimizing for good consumer UX across platforms
    • Developers should think about adding optimizations like search-as-you-type to help users add their username more quickly when kicking off the flow
