Hello, i'm Yon.

When i moved my whole community to Farcaster in February, I was already deep into web3. I'd launched the peaceful groupies over 2 years prior and had a loyal community backing me up.
But Twitter was getting toxic, and Discord was growing quiet. Farcaster offered a chance to bring my people into a fresh, supportive space.
My goal was simple: to unite everyone who cared about my art in one interactive, public channel.
Little did i know, Farcaster would become the perfect home for my art and journey...
In my first message, I laid it all out — the ups and downs, lessons learned, and my commitment to peacevoid, a brand I’d vowed to build for life.
Moving to Farcaster felt like hitting the reset button, a chance to focus on what truly matters and experience real connections.
Starting fresh and embracing challenges

Starting on a new platform is humbling. With no followers and limited reach, i had to introduce myself authentically. Farcaster was filled with people I respected — creators, builders, and thinkers reshaping the digital space. I knew i’d been missing out, so I took the plunge.
One thing that helped early on was $DEGEN tipping, which had just taken off.
Sharing my art across channels and connecting with new people, the $DEGEN community was incredibly supportive. I was creating art daily, meeting people, and earning in a meaningful way — it was surreal.
Creating my first viral piece on farcaster

Though many knew me for the peaceful groupies, my first real viral piece on Farcaster was reply guys — a tribute to the community that was always there for me. Friends like bfg, spit, apollo, and jason became essential to my early Farcaster experience, and portraying the reply guys was my way of honoring them.
Then came the trippy animated pfps. I'd take people’s profile pictures and give them a psychedelic spin. sSoon, everyone wanted one, and I found myself doing raffles, with people tipping $DEGEN for a shot. seeing people’s excitement made it worth every minute.
Building community through Art

The magic happened through my art. Taking something personal, like people’s pfps, and turning it into unique art created a real connection. It wasn’t just art, it was making people feel seen.
this connection opened doors i’d only dreamed of, leading to collaborations with rainbow, shillr, base, and even friends and collectors reaching out for physical pieces.
Demand for trippy pfps grew fast, so i began doing raffles twice a week and eventually launched my Hypersub: the yon experience, where top subscribers could get custom pfps along with monthly art drops.
Expanding reach in a quiet space

Farcaster’s channels and curated communities were game-changers.
unlike twitter, with all its drama, Farcaster felt like a space where people truly cared about art and its stories — not just the market.
I'm always experimenting, and Farcaster is perfect for that. Recently, i collaborated with aether (an ai agent) for an on-chain drop on Zora.
The agent suggested a concept, and i created the piece. seeing an ai prompt a human artist, rather than the other way around, felt groundbreaking. The best part is that all of this took place publicly, in a cast thread.
There are endless werid opportunities on Farcaster if you’re paying attention.
Consistency and Authenticity

Showing up daily, engaging, and staying in tune with the culture is essential. understanding inside jokes, knowing what people are talking about, and keeping up with Farcaster and web3 culture have been key to my journey.
I’ve learned that consistency can be as important as quality. I show up, create, share, and repeat. It’s a rhythm that’s become second nature, and it’s how i’ve built real connections.
Farcaster is filled with tech enthusiasts and builders working toward a better internet, and that energy and motivation fuels me. The whole community is a constant source of inspiration, and i feel like i’m exactly where i need to be right now.
Finding my place on the Internet

Farcaster isn’t just a platform, it’s a home for artists and builders in web3. it’s a space where i can be myself without the noise of other platforms. here, people get crypto, web3, and what it means to be a creator. It has given me a place to thrive and a community that appreciates my work.
Right now, i’m diving deeper into my Hypersub journey, dropping experimental pieces for subscribers each month and seeing my evolution in real time.
I recently moved to los angeles to be closer to the action and meet collectors, friends, and collaborators.
As for what’s next, i’m still experimenting, exploring, and seeing where this path takes me. ready to step into the unknown once again.

Amazing growth story, thanks for sharing this.

Undisputed @maretus x @yonfrula are the greatest 👍👍
Introducing our 4th guest post on the Success Frens blog: A story by @yonfrula about his experience building a brand on Farcaster! I am so stoked to be featuring Yon on the Success Frens blog. Since I first started on Farcaster, I have looked up to him as an example of how to build a brand and a community here. This story is fantastic and really mirrors my own experience on Farcaster in so many ways. The emphasis on showing up daily, engaging authentically, and staying in tune with what's happening here is spot on! You won't do well here if you only show up once in awhile. If you want to succeed on Farcaster, you have to put in the work and Yon Frula is one of the best examples of this. He's here everyday in the trenches, building. Give his story a read! It's fascinating and full of insight about how to build a brand here. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and I know you will too! https://paragraph.xyz/@success-frens/yonfrula-building-my-art-career
Another good read, yon has such a bright future I can see it from the other side of the continent 👏👏 its crazy inspiring to be able to witness artists like yon 🫶🏼🫶🏼 I learned so many fun facts as well 😄

Thanks for posting yon! 690 $degen
I love a good yon story
Yon is one of my favourite artists on here Definitely reading this ❤️
This is fucking DOPE. Great Interview @maretus the cool thing about the community @yonfrula created is you can be brand new, but have the feeling that youve been apart of it forever. Yon, Peacevoid always intrigued me. Did you build the website out on your own? curious what you have planned for the future of peacevoid specifically.
that's what groupies are about, we're truly a welcoming family. definitely didn't build the website myself, i had an incredible ui/ux designer helping me bring my sketches to life!
I wish I had 1/100th of the skill your team had that built the site. super unique and super yonish
