Understanding message propagation on Farcaster mainnet

rish

Collect

This post is meant to help you think through message propagation on the Farcaster network. I wrote a few casts about this earlier (see below) but figured I would write a longer form now.

In quick summary, every app / client on Farcaster reads and writes messages from an underlying network of hubs (nodes). The

goal is of this article is to explain the technical details of what I'm seeing while building on the protocol, in case it helps you build. 🙂

Each hub stores a state of the network and communicates (aka gossips) any incoming messages to other hubs its peered with.

Farcaster 101

Farcaster is a protocol for building decentralized social apps.
All data is open, decentralized, and available on Farcaster hubs.
Neynar makes it easy to interface with this data.

Farcaster is a protocol for building decentralized social apps. All data is open, decentralized, and available on Farcaster hubs. Neynar makes it easy to interface with this data.

These are the main Farcaster primitives to keep in mind as you dive in:

Users

Every user on Farcaster is represented by a permanent FID, the user’s numerical identifier.

All user profile data for this FID (username, display name, bio, etc) are stored on the Farcaster protocol and mapped to this FID.

To get a user FID, click on the ··· on their profile, then click on About.

To get a user FID, click on the ··· on their profile, then click on About.

Casts

Users can broadcast information to the protocol in units of information called casts. It’s somewhat similar to a post on X.

Each cast has a unique hash.

To get a cast hash, click on the ··· on the cast, then click on Copy cast hash.

Warpcast is being rebranded to Farcaster

1. Mobile app will be called Farcaster
2. The Arch logo will return
3. Website will move from warpcast.com to farcaster.xyz.
4. All links will be backwards compatible. No action needed.

Will roll out this week or next, depending on app store reviews.

3mo

We're planning to move forward with rebranding the Warpcast mobile and web app to Farcaster. 1. Nothing is changing any time soon. We will take our time with this and have plenty of communication about it across multiple channels. The earliest the change will happen is mid-May, but a decent chance it happens in June.

To get a cast hash, click on the ··· on the cast, then click on Copy cast hash.

User relationships

Users can follow each other to see casts from them. This creates a social graph for each user on Farcaster.

You can use our Explorer to get data for a specific user relationship.
