7/12 Back to the point. I also want to look at what the native advantages of Farcaster and Quorum are.
Farcaster and Quorum are two different product positions. They are hard to merge, and forcing them together would produce something that is neither one thing nor the other. Farcaster, like any Twitter-type product, is a public square. Everyone speaks freely, and what you say is public. Quorum, like every IM product, is your private living room. You only invite friends in. Merge the two and you have moved your living room into the middle of the square: strangers keep wandering into your home, and it feels wrong. Users cannot make sense of what the product is, and it struggles to compete with a pure IM like Telegram.
