Degen APIs for Developers: The founder of $DEGEN, @jacek, has launched APIs for developers making it easier to build tools and frames for $DEGEN. The deadline for the Frame Bounty (1st place = 1.5M $DEGEN & 600M $FRAME, 2nd/3rd = 500K $DEGEN & 400M $FRAME) was pushed back 6 days giving people the ability to be creative with the new public APIs.
DEGEN Merch: Two weeks ago @lluis launched shopdegen.xyz, a marketplace for Degen themed hats, shirts and hoodies. As a recent purchaser, the quality and service is great. Today @manuelmaccou.eth (creating @Gogh, the shopping mall for Farcaster) shipped a Frame making it even easier for people to shop Degen merch.
/DEGEN Community lead reputation: The Degen channel continues to be one of the best places for innovation on Warpcast. @depatchedmode launched phase 1 of Reputator, a reputation system based Frame that allows community members to rate if a cast is good or bad. If the consensus of voted on content is "good" that attaches higher reputation for a caster and vice-versa. It's an early iteration but a fascinating idea and displays the powers of decentralized social.
