“Curate with integrity, vibe with positivity.” — DegenCast

The Problem

In the current digital era, discovering high-quality content, maintaining fair moderation, and providing proper incentives are significant challenges. Many platforms are inundated with spam and low-quality posts, making it difficult for genuine content creators to get noticed and rewarded. Users often struggle to find valuable content amidst the noise, leading to a fragmented and frustrating experience. There is a clear need for a system that not only curates content effectively but also incentivizes meaningful engagement and contributions.

What is Degencast?

Degencast is a groundbreaking platform that integrates onchain content curation with a memecoin launchpad, seamlessly tied into the Farcaster social network. Our goal is to address the core issues of content curation, moderation, and incentives through a decentralized, community-driven approach. By combining the power of blockchain technology with social engagement, Degencast aims to create a vibrant and rewarding ecosystem for content creators and users alike.

How Degencast Works

Degencast operates through an onchain Content DAO, a decentralized autonomous organization that oversees content curation and moderation. Each channel on Degencast can launch its own unique token, which combines the features of ERC1155 and ERC20 standards. Users can stake $DEGEN tokens to submit proposals for new content. These proposals are then put through a community voting process. If a proposal is approved, the content is minted as part of the channel’s collection with a unique token ID.

The approved content can be minted on a bonding curve, which ensures fair pricing and value. Once the liquidity reaches a certain threshold, the channel curation token, also functioning as an ERC20 token, is launched on UniswapV3. This process incentivizes users to post high-quality content, as only the best content gets accepted and rewarded. Additionally, Degencast makes it easy to tip, mint, and trade within the app, ensuring a seamless and connected user experience. Users are notified when their friends mint or trade NFTs and tokens, fostering a dynamic and engaging community.
