Farcaster Pro Early Adopters subscribers are reaping significant rewards. We’re providing these benefits through an exclusive OG NFT and $PRO airdrop. The total value of these rewards far exceeds the annual subscription price. This reality makes the case for adopting the Farcaster ecosystem early even stronger.

The Farcaster Pro tier, a paid subscription within the Farcaster protocol, is $120/year. The initial 10,000 users that signed up for Farcaster Pro are the only ones eligible to receive an exclusive OG NFT. In addition, Farcaster Pro subscribers qualified for the $PRO airdrop, which was associated with the launch of Procoin.

$PRO Airdrop and Procoin Launch

With an airdrop worth $400-500 per subscriber, the value delivered to subscribers dwarfed typical marketing campaigns. Each subscriber was allocated about $120 worth of $PRO tokens. This airdrop basically paid for a year of Farcaster Pro’s annual subscription.

The $PRO airdrop was roughly timed with the launch of Procoin. The recent Procoin launch as well created additional incentives to participate in the Farcaster network. That’s largely because real users were incentivized to do so with hard cash rewards for their advance participation.

The mass distribution of the $PRO tokens then offset the full cost of their company subscription. More importantly, the poll proved Farcaster’s commitment to rewarding its user base. This strategy builds a positive community experience and helps motivate people to come back to the platform long term. The airdrop was a strategic decision to bootstrap the entire Procoin ecosystem while incentivizing early participation.

OG NFT Value and Early Subscriber Benefits

In addition to the $PRO airdrop, all early Farcaster Pro subscribers were issued an OG NFT. With 1300 of them in circulation, the OG NFT now has a floor price of 0.09 ETH — about $250. This provides an additional layer of value for early adopters.

That’s a $120 benefit from the $PRO airdrop that early subscribers have already enjoyed. They’ve received another $250 thanks to the OG NFT, for a total of about $370 in benefits. That’s more than a triple return on their original annual subscription investment. This huge return serves to highlight the financial benefits of being an early adopter in the Farcaster ecosystem.

These rewards pretty clearly lay out the incentive for users to engage and invest on the Farcaster platform.The value proposition logic goes beyond just getting early supporters access to higher quality features, though, as it also presents real-world monetary savings.

Checking Your Farcaster Wallet for Collectibles

Farcaster Pro subscribers can check to see if they received the OG NFT in seconds by looking in their Farcaster wallet. In the wallet application, users will go to their “Collectibles” tab to find their NFTs. Here, under the Collectibles tab, this is where all NFTs tied to a user’s Farcaster account will show up.

Farcaster wallet interface with transfer function circled to start an on-chain transaction. Users may use this feature to keep track of digital assets and send them between users on the farcaster ecosystem. This feature increases the utility and control users have over their digital assets while giving them more visibility within the platform.

Farcaster team has a well-established history of benefiting early adopters. So, subscribing to Farcaster Pro could be a very smart, inexpensive long-term strategy to earn future eligibility for rewards of that magnitude. This is a strong motivator for free users to jump up to the Pro tier, which offers access to these premium features.
