GM Farcaster ep251 Wednesday May 28, 2025 presented by Octant

From our ChatGPT Intern: Today’s GM Farcaster is a pro badge flex-a-thon, as the hosts debate the merits of paying $120 for a digital check mark that, in true Web3 style, doesn’t actually do much except trigger a bunch of memes about social hierarchy. From surprise NFT airdrops, to warp whale drama, to the realization that even 250,000 warps can’t buy you onchain friends, this episode proves that crypto’s greatest feature is still its ability to turn status symbols into jokes—live, on air, and with impeccable comedic timing.
