Right now it seems like you put a lot of effort into building something people want to use. Do you think VC funding will eventually put you in a situation where you have to build things users don’t want?

So a bunch of the VCs are actually here today, but generally: 1. The people we're working with are all great people 2. Varun and I are ultimately the final decision makers on everything There's this meme that somehow the VCs are kind of pulling strings from behind the scenes, but the reality is they ultimately want us to build something that people want. And if we do that, it can be massive and everyone can benefit. And so I think where we are focused - in terms of how we've been building - is on how many people are using Farcaster every day. And we can get into the details on how to measure that and whether everyone is qDAU or whatever. But ultimately, if we can make progress every single week on the number of people that find Farcaster interesting and useful and are willing to use a Farcaster app then that's the only thing that actually matters. And if we can do that over the next 5 to 10 years, it could end up being something really massive.
