FAQ

What this is, and who you are trusting.

Where things live

Three places, and nothing moves between them.

Your NFT
On Base, in your wallet.It never leaves, and it is the account.
Your Farcaster account
On Optimism, where Farcaster keeps accounts.Held by an onchain account only your NFT can be behind.
Your posting key
In this browser.It signs your casts. It is never sent anywhere.

Who you are trusting

Farcaster cannot see Base, so somebody has to vouch that you own the NFT. That somebody is us.

In short

  • The NFT owns the Farcaster account. Selling it hands the account over.
  • We vouch for ownership once, when you claim. Nothing else needs us.
  • Only your browser can post, and nobody can take the account away.
