Decentralized Social Platform Farcaster Considers Token Launch

Farcaster is a decentralized social media platform similar to X, that is reportedly thinking about launching its own token.
On this network built on Ethereum (ETH) users can create profiles, make posts famously known as “casts,” and also connect with others besides keeping data on-chain while displaying non-fungible tokens (NFTs).
Farcaster, which has only 50k active users per day, recently raised $150 million in funding to push the valuation of the platform to $1 billion making it the largest investment in web3 social media so far. Fortune reports that investors are looking forward for Farcaster’s token launch.
