About
Farcaster is a decentralized social network that lets users own their identity and connect with others through software. It provides an open protocol that developers can build on, enabling permissionless creation of social apps and mini apps. Users can sign up via email or phone, and developers can sync network data and integrate Farcaster authentication into their own products.
Problem
Centralized social networks control user identity and data, leaving users without ownership or portability.
For
General users and developers building social applications
How it works
Farcaster uses an open, decentralized protocol where users own their identity on-chain, and developers can build apps and mini apps on top of the network using public APIs and nodes.
