According to Odaily, the decentralized social media protocol Farcaster has seen a historic surge in user engagement. The platform recorded over 73,700 independent casters last week, marking an all-time high. The protocol has generated an income of 611.03 ETH.
The surge in user numbers could be attributed to an announcement made by founder Dan Romer. He revealed that they are developing a new tool that will allow in-app payments using USDC. This feature aims to solve the long-standing issue of having to find someone's alphanumeric wallet address and will enable users to send directly via their Farcaster ID.
