Code, Creativity, and Collaboration

Meet @g0hst, the Dev Powering the BizarreBeasts ($BB) Miniapp

BizarreBeasts

BizarreBeasts

BizarreBeasts has always revolved around BIZARRE art, onchain storytelling, and collaborative building. When the time came to enhance our tools, we partnered with one of the most notorious developers on Farcaster: @g0hst.

@g0hst has been instrumental in bringing BIZARRE ideas to life with real, usable infrastructure, namely the innovative BizarreBeasts Miniapp. But he’s not just building for $BB!

@g0hst is also the founder of the $CREDIT Empire, a $GLANKER-powered ecosystem, and has shipped dozens of powerful tools and miniapps across Farcaster.

More Than Code: Why His Work Matters

In just a few months, @g0hst has delivered:

  • The BizarreBeasts Miniapp: swap $BB, in-app NFT minting, check-in for rewards, and many more $BB utilities, all in one sleek interface.

  • Miniapps for other Empire projects: including $SAUSAGE, $GMYerb, $HMBT (coming soon), and his own $CREDIT hub.

  • Tools for the culture: including CastDex, Honeypot Detector, DustSweep, and the Empire Stampcast.

“I paint in code. Farcaster is my canvas.”

A Glimpse into @g0hst's Portfolio: Building the Farcaster Toolkit

Beyond his direct work on the BizarreBeasts Miniapp and the creation of his $CREDIT Empire Miniapp, @g0hst has been a prolific builder, creating essential tools and miniapps that benefit creators and communities across the Farcaster ecosystem. Here's a look at some of his key contributions:

The BizarreBeasts Miniapp: A Game-Changer for $BB

We launched the BizarreBeasts Miniapp to provide $BB holders and newcomers with a straightforward, immersive entry point into the BizarreBeasts universe. With @g0hst’s help, we now have:

  • In-app swaps for $BB tokens using $ETH

  • NFT minting directly in the app

  • Dynamic resources and content links

  • Empire Builder boosters and leaderboard access

  • Onchain check-ins and rewards flow

It has become the central hub for the $BB ecosystem—clean, functional, and ready for expansion. This is what onchain, community-oriented infrastructure looks like when it caters to an artist’s needs.

The Vision Behind the Builder

I connected with @g0hst for a brief Q&A to discuss his goals, what he is building, and, of course, why he is so BIZARRE:

Share a bit about yourself in a few sentences—what makes you so BIZARRE?

“I’m a classically-trained IT pro in my 30s who’s been hooked on Farcaster since August 2024. Balancing a full-time job and a family, I’ve nonetheless shipped 100 + builds—everything from full-stack web apps to v1/v2 Frames and Mini Apps—each designed to spot emerging trends and spark community innovation. Farcaster’s permissionless frontier challenges me daily, and I channel my crypto passion into tailored services that tether my ambitions to yours, so we all rise together.”

post image

What do you plan to accomplish onchain in 2025?

"In 2025, I’m focused on bringing quality mini apps to the masses—starting with Blak Armory, my flagship project merging NFT gaming with AI-driven engineering. It’s more than a build—it’s a vision. I’m also leading the $CREDIT Empire, stepping into a founder role I never expected but fully embrace. Alongside that, I’ve launched CastDex, a Farcaster-native token voting and market intel app, and helped deliver mini apps for Sausagedad, GMYerb, HMBT (coming soon), and more in the pipeline. This year is about leveling up—and taking the ecosystem with me."

Outside of the $CREDIT Miniapp and BizarreBeasts Miniapp, what unique opportunities or challenges do you perceive in creating truly engaging and sticky mini-apps directly on Farcaster? Additionally, how will you approach addressing these challenges for other projects?

“The biggest opportunity—and challenge—in building sticky Farcaster miniapps is the same: the limits of the SDK itself. But within those constraints are powerful creative sparks. One frontier I’m excited to explore is haptics—using tactile feedback to add a sensory layer beyond just visual flow. Imagine not just seeing an action, but feeling it. That’s next-level immersion for something as lightweight as a mini app.

The SDK can be humbling, full of quirks and edge cases, but I've learned to embrace the struggle. Every build teaches me something, and I bring that forward into the next—designing tighter UX, pushing new capabilities, and always aiming to delight the user. That’s my idea of a good day. (Cue Ice Cube meme.)”

post image

What is one game-changing mini-app feature or type of onchain integration that you are most excited to explore for future Farcaster projects, and why do you think it will provide significant value for communities?

"While haptics is high on my list, the real game-changer I’m chasing is native multi-chain integration. Base is great—but it's just one of thousands. Each chain has its own culture, user base, and economic flow. Imagine releasing a single NFT that’s instantly tradable across ecosystems—earning in any token, on any chain, without jumping through bridges or wrappers. That kind of interoperability would break silos and unlock massive value for creators and communities alike. It’s not just convenience—it’s freedom."

Who are some BIZARRE people you have met on Fascaster?

Pfft, you’re at the top of that list. Every $GLANKER Empire Builder and Guardian—y’all inspire me daily. I’ve had the privilege to learn from some of the best founders and devs out there: @matthewfox, @corbin.eth, @naaate, @markcarey—each pushing boundaries that make me want to level up.

On the creative side, I’m in awe of what folks like @bizarrebeasts, @sausagedad, @push, @macbeth, and @2toneartist bring to life. I can’t sketch what's in my head, but I paint in code—and that’s my canvas.

Also I'd have to mention the Empire Builders themselves, @yerbearserker and @diviflyy. Their vision for the future of onchain community and empowerment is a big source of inspiration for me.

I’m no Neo, but I try to live somewhere between the Matrix and reality, reaching out to the genuine, curious followers who keep this whole thing real. They’re tough to impress—and that’s exactly why I keep showing up.

post image

Do you have any final thoughts you'd like to share?

“My goal is simple: to be the medium that helps you create your medium, better. I’m a natural fixer and facilitator—I take complex systems and make them feel effortless for others. When something I’ve built isn’t running at peak performance, I take it personally. I’m a workhorse by nature, pushing boulders up mountains every day on purpose.

The Farcaster community motivates me to keep building, and I want to give that energy right back. Sure, I’d love to be independently wealthy—but truthfully, I’ll take admiration and impact over money any day.

So tell me what you’re trying to build. I’ll do everything I can to help you make it real.”


Miniapps as Culture Tools

For creators, the miniapp format is a superpower: quick to deploy, feature-rich, and directly integrated with Farcaster’s social layer. When I partnered with @g0hst to build the BizarreBeasts Miniapp, I gained access to more than just a developer; I joined forces with a co-conspirator who understands art, tokens, and how to translate both into tools that people love using.


Boosting Across Empires

The collaboration doesn’t end with the Miniapp. $BB and $CREDIT also serve as boosters for each other’s $GLANKER-powered empires, meaning community support flows both ways. This type of token interoperability is crucial to my vision of the future: artist-led ecosystems that support one another.

post image

My Recommendation for @g0hst

I wholeheartedly recommend @g0hst for development work! As an artist without a coding background, I have faced numerous challenges while trying to bring BizarreBeasts to life, especially regarding the development of tools.

My previous experiences with developers were frustrating and disheartening, but everything changed when I met g0hst. He is not only a skilled and efficient builder but also someone who truly understands the creative process.

From the very beginning, he approached our collaboration with empathy, clarity, and a strong commitment to helping artists thrive onchain. He provided a working framework, refined it to meet the specific needs of BizarreBeasts, and transformed it into a live, fully functional Miniapp.

g0hst didn't just write code; he helped unlock a new phase of my project. If you're looking for someone who can effectively bridge the gap between vision and execution, he's the partner you need.


What’s Next?

We’re already cooking up new features for the BizarreBeasts Miniapp: enhanced game flows, new mint mechanics for collectors, and daily in-app check-in is out of beta and LIVE for all users. And as @g0hst continues building, expect more projects across the Empire landscape to benefit from his unique combo of code and creator empowerment.

About The Artist

As the artist and creator behind BizarreBeasts, I'm continually exploring the exciting intersection of my lifelong passion for illustration and the darkly humorous world of outsider art with the innovative possibilities of web3. I'm drawn to the space where the comical and unsettling coexist, which influences the unique characters and narratives I create within the BizarreBeasts universe.

For me, BizarreBeasts is more than just digital collectibles; it's a fusion of my artistic vision and the potential of decentralized technology to build a community and foster new economic forms. This article reflects my hands-on exploration of blockchain technology as a tool to weave together community, culture, and cryptocurrency within the BizarreBeasts ecosystem.
