This week was jam packed with Farcaster news and beyond with the $degen airdrop, feature releases, and the SEC approval of Bitcoin ETFs finally! A premature SEC tweet led to Warpcast smirks. Plus a * major * new feature release was teased but we didn't get to discuss it...yet! (Group direct casts launched late Friday so tune into Monday 8:30 am ET for that.)

Thank you Grace for chatting with us about the vibes and the $vibes on Unlonely as part of our Fridays with Frens series. See her episode below, along with the other two from this week. Coming up this Friday with Frens, we'll chat with j4ck about Icebreaker.

Our sponsorships opportunities are still open for January with one last CLP available. Better hurry! Learn more here.
