On Sunday, February 4th, amidst some of the heaviest rain seen this season in California, the SF crypto community came together at the offices of Kindred Ventures to hack on the new Farcaster Frames!
Hosted by Deform, Base, and Kindred, this event brought together developers, degens, innovators, and blockchain enthusiasts for a day of intense collaboration and innovation.
The hackathon provided a unique platform for participants to showcase their skills, solve real-world problems, and explore the endless possibilities of Farcaster Frames technology.
What is Farcaster Frames?
It’s a revolutionary way of interacting with other platforms while remaining within the Warpcast portal. You can now interact with polls, live feeds, galleries, NFT minting, etc. inside Warpcast or any other Farcaster client.

So what?
Prior to frames, it was pretty inefficient to interact with direct casts in Warpcast especially if they lead to external sites. In this ecosystem, a user’s crypto wallet is already pre-authenticated, and apps are automatically connected to your onchain identity. Now with frames, a whole new world of one-tap experiences & commerce from a social media platform are unlocked!
Hackathon Overview
Held at the Kindred Ventures offices, the SF Farcaster Frames Hackathon kicked off with an introduction from Jesse Pollak of the Base team, setting the stage for an exciting day ahead. Hackers worked in teams and individually to create innovative and fun use cases for Frames.
