A new minimalist Farcaster client combining elements of 4chan and HackerNews is in development.​ The platform emphasizes simplicity with:

  • Thread bumping functionality
  • Built-in tipping system
  • Anonymous posting by default
  • Focus on text and image content only

The client strips away common social features like profiles, direct messages, frames, and recasts.​ Launch is scheduled for FarCon.​

This development follows Farcaster's recent integration with Coinbase Wallet's social feed, marking significant mainstream expansion.​
