Mission

Farther is a tokenized community accelerating the global adoption of Farcaster.

Why

Online social relationships should be as unmediated as they are in real life.
Cultural norms should be as localizable and enforceable online as they are offline.
Our attention should not be a product sold to advertisers without our awareness or consent.

Centralized social networks aren't capable of fulfilling those requirements. Many new decentralized social protocols are attempting to, but Farcaster stands out as having the greatest potential to do so in a way that is both credibly neutral and scalable.

How

Farther is primarily used as a tipping token with a prediction market mechanism to increase quality content and reduce user churn on Farcaster. Learn more about how it works here.

In addition to tip allowances and rewards, Farther has a liquidity rewards program and ecosystem fund for partnerships and future initiatives.

Tokenomics

On September 2, 2024, token holders were given control of the treasury via FartherDAO. The dev fund remains available for anyone interested in taking over the project. Please read the full announcement. This change deprecates the allocations below but the information will remain here for reference.

FARTHER address: 0x8ad5b9007556749de59e088c88801a3aaa87134b

The initial supply is 1 billion tokens, and there is no initial price. The community decides what its worth. Please read the disclaimers before buying.

Allocations amount are listed below, with respective links to Gnosis Safes where the pools are stored.

In addition to the initial supply, the Farther token contract is capable of optionally minting up to 3% of the current token supply per year. This could potentially be used to fund future initiatives, however there are currently no specific plans for it. It can be permanently revoked if the Farther community decides.
