While we have heard a lot about bridging gaps between Web2 & Web3 services, one area in particular that needs the bridge the most is design tooling.

Web3 is a very visually rich medium and memes have created their own universe of sorts, not only in terms of community representation but also as magic internet money printers (psst…memecoin supercycle).

So if the entire crypto community has taken memes seriously, we at Poster have to absolutely up our game in more ways than one. 

So what do we get by Mixing Creativity + Creator + OnChain (mathematically), we get Poster. 

100% Onchain content tooling is how we would describe Poster as a platform, but the mad integration with Farcaster is where the game starts to shine and Poster hands over content creativity tooling in the hands of onhcain degens. 

A fun designing tool that will take your Farcaster game FAR into outer space.

If you are in Web3, then being a memelord should come naturally to you, but more often that not, creating memes involves hopping over 50+ phishing websites to reach the export button.

With Poster, our users can simply login with their Solana or EVM wallet and have a blank canvas to let their degen thoughts take control.

This is barely scratching the surface. At Poster, we recognise the different layers of creativity that every individual has, so we support the creation of designs from the ground up or users can start with Poster Templates or Community Templates. 

Our goal was super simple, we wanted to cook and serve something insanely user-friendly without a learning curve for all sorts of users. It does not matter if you are hardcore Web3 native or a wandered in the web2 space, Poster should be your got to platform to unleash insanity with creativity.

Jump deeper into the madness on offer, and advanced degens can make use of AI Image creation tools and also use videos by Pexels to make their creation come to live.

While building Poster, we had a simple playbook in front of us, how to get onchain content creation tooling to the next level. While Web2 has insane products built around the creation tooling game, the onchain side was barren land. So when we decided on Poster.fun, we also wanted the fun to be more than a domain extension.

Imagine being able to sell your meme for magic internet money? Well, stop imagining and start doing it with Poster. 

At Poster, we believe in going wild with our integrations and one of the core functionality of the platform allows users to make their meme and sell it for a coin of their choice. This is our take on the content creator economy,

Taking the example of MFer coin, users can create a meme and list them for MFer coin due to their integration with Poster. The music does not stop there, Poster allows users to gate their meme and have their creations exclusively minted by members of only a particular channel on Farcaster. 

When we say this is just the beginning, then believe us, because the MFer coin is just an example, we don’t believe in limitations and support major Farcaster native/base memcoins like TN100X (ham), $Degen, $Doge amongst many of other legendary tokens

Trivia 101: We don't’ want to flex (maybe we want to), but did you know Poster is proud to be a part of the $Degen coin grantees for supporting the degen meme creation during the genesis stage. That’s how serious we are about our Farcaster ecosystem plans and goals.

Also, how can we forget autosplits? A feature so legendary, that we cooked it for the best interest of our community.

Our founder Frames (no pun intended) in the perfect way: Permissionless Collab Infrastructure. This allows users of Poster to use any given template/sticker in their creation, but attribution is automatically given to the original creator.

The reason why onchain tooling is so necessary!

If this is not enough, Poster gives users the additional firepower to select other users as well with whom they can split the revenue. Split it between 2 people or 10 people and have a fixed percentage split or varying number for each member, the choice is yours.

Poster is tightly integrated with Farcaster, making the entire onchain play supercharged.

Every creation can be monetized from the 1st click itself. Your creation can either be a mintable frame or an NFT, furthermore, you are not restricted to only Base chain since it is Farcaster. You can make your NFT mintable on Ethereum, OP, Base, Zora or Arbitrum network.

If you are feeling super generous towards the community, simply keep the minting of your creations as a free NFT.

Now free mints might come across as a perplexing option, but free mints within the Farcaster ecosystem pushes the envelope in terms of community building. Imagine a rookie using Farcaster for the first time and is intrigued with the concepts of digital collectables/NFTs, a free mint is like a foot in the door to begin their onchain journey and build their social scores.

The idea is awesome, the distribution method is in place and free mints help amplify the purpose in the correct way.

Poster can also be your go-to action on Farcaster. If the desktop platform is super powerful, we would call the Farcaster in-app action insanely fast.

Users can simply click on the Poster action and follow a few steps to take over the World

• Type out a prompt and hit return

• Select the best generated image from the 5 choices

• Set pre-mint tasks: 1) Like only, 2) Like & Recast, 3) Like, Recast, Follow

• Add relevant (external) links

• Set total no of mints

• Name the Mint

Boom, you are ready to cast out on Farcast without breaking a sweat and avoiding jumping through 15 different platforms and a clipboard.

Poster Composer Farcaster!

This is where things get really interesting and all of our supercharged creativity falls into one place. If you feel like us, then the Poster Composer action is tailor-made for you folks!

Poster Composer supports the creation with Meme templates, community stickers as well as generative AI content with your prompt right on the platform itself. Users can go crazy with the option of adding texts and/or adding additional meme templates to power up their creations.

Everything boils down back to the integration with the Farcaster ecosystem. You can simply become a Poster power-user and easily 10x your reply-guy skills without breaking a sweat.

The Poster Composer action also allows user to either simply cast their creation in a channel, eg /onchainsummer or go one step beyond and share it as a Frame. 

Users can Gate their creation while sharing it as a frame and decide on the number of mints (10 limitations on free mints).

Gas-fees are covered by the creator in case of a sponsored frame and incase users don’t want to bear the gas-fees, they can publish their frame as a paid transaction one and gas is then paid by the end-user during the NFT minting process.

As a platform, we want to be at the forefront of design tooling, but we want to bring in all the aspects of onchain magic to the mix. 

We want our users to bring alive their creation through every means possible, whether it is through AI prompts, community stickers, memecoin integrations and protocol partnerships. The heart and soul of Poster will always be Community Centric Creativity.

A lot is being cooked in the Poster labs and we are absolutely ecstatic to take you on all on this journey of creative madness: Onchain, of course

See you in the next one folks...
