# Ambassador's Monday *Ambassadors Edition #166* By [Ambassadors](https://newsletter.ambassadors.gg) · 2025-02-03 warpcast, farcaster, base --- **GM from the Farcaster Trenches!** Hey, it’s Kyle Patrick here, bringing you the latest updates and insights straight from the frontlines of the Farcaster ecosystem. Let’s dive into what’s shaping the week ahead and celebrate the incredible work happening across our community! **Today’s Highlights:** ![](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/6c97b1c0364b618877930493bea7360f.png) Stories from the Trenches ========================= 1\. Base Acquires Spindl: Helping Builders Go Viral --------------------------------------------------- Jesse Pollak, creator of **Base**, has announced the [acquisition of **Spindl**](https://warpcast.com/jessepollak/0xb598a139), an onchain ads and attribution platform. This move is part of Base’s ambitious goal to bring **one billion users onchain** by supporting builders who create the apps to make it happen. ![](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/c4b5df77cce91f48a3a58535cb370738.png) **Why This Matters**: * **Builder Virality**: Builders want to go viral, and Spindl’s expertise in onchain advertising will help them accelerate their reach. * **The Flywheel Effect**: Supporting developers leads to more onchain apps, which attract more users, which in turn incentivizes more developers to build. Spindl helps spin this flywheel faster. * **Spindl’s Expertise**: Founded by **Antonio Garcia-Martinez** (an early member of Facebook’s ads team), Spindl brings unmatched knowledge in onchain advertising, connecting builders with Coinbase users and the broader onchain economy. 2025 is shaping up to be the year builders go viral. Welcome to the Base ecosystem, **Spindl**! 2\. Clanker Interface Fee Split Update -------------------------------------- The Clanker engineering team has [updated fee splits](https://warpcast.com/proxystudio.eth/0x358679b2) for all interface partners, effective from **~9 AM EST today**. For all Clanker launches originating from partner interfaces, the new split is: * **40% to creators** * **40% to interface partners** * **20% to Clanker** This update is part of Clanker’s ongoing efforts to refine its rewards structure. The team has also recently recruited to improve pool structures, optimize rewards for apps and creators, and build out **Clanker v4 on Uniswap v4**. While Clanker remains semi-permissioned for now, the team is manually onboarding interested interfaces. Big progress is being made toward becoming fully permissionless on the contract side, with exciting updates planned for February. 3\. Warpcast Wallet: A Hint of What’s to Come --------------------------------------------- The Farcaster team is hinting that the **Warpcast Wallet** may be [launching soon](https://warpcast.com/v/0x1ca2f518). Earlier this week, they called for beta testers to help test key features, including transferring funds on Base and swapping assets. While testing may already be underway, this signals that the wallet’s release could be just around the corner. Keep an eye out this coming week—the Warpcast Wallet could be the next big thing in the Farcaster ecosystem! 4\. Uniswap v4 is Here ---------------------- The wait is over—[**Uniswap v4**](https://warpcast.com/uniswap/0x2faf3e2b) has officially launched! Users can now provide liquidity (LP) on v4 through the Uniswap web app, with swapping rolling out over the coming days on both web and wallet interfaces as liquidity migrates to the new version. ![](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/2a459ebb29c8f3f07099b5a76b8342dd.png) **Available Networks**: Uniswap v4 is live on **Ethereum**, **Polygon**, **Arbitrum**, **OP Mainnet**, **Base**, **BNB Chain**, **Blast**, **World Chain**, **Avalanche**, and **Zora Network**. This major upgrade brings enhanced features and flexibility to the Uniswap ecosystem, setting the stage for a more efficient and user-friendly DeFi experience. 5\. FarWorld: Streamlining Pack Drops ------------------------------------- FarWorld is [bringing mints](https://warpcast.com/blackstock/0x497b8cab) into the platform, making the next pack drops a **much more seamless process**. The team is currently testing and ironing out the kinks to ensure a smooth experience for users. ![](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/cc17804c62741064d3df8f5b772e02bc.png) **What to Expect**: * **Simplified Process**: Future pack drops will be more user-friendly and efficient. * **Timeline**: Aiming for the next drop on **January 7**.

BUILD is Now a Public Good: 100% Community-Owned ---------------------------------------------------- The BUILD team has made a [major move](https://warpcast.com/macedo/0xf9ea89e7): BUILD is now a public good, fully owned by the community. Here’s what’s happening: 1. **Airdrop of 163B BUILD**: Over 40K community members who participated in previous airdrop rounds will receive 85B BUILD this Sunday (up to 10M each). Full committers get 2x their commitment, while half committers get their commitment back. For amounts over 10M, the remainder vests over 10 months. 2. **No Treasury, No Gatekeepers**: The team added 16 ETH as liquidity on Uniswap and burned 380B BUILD from the treasury, ensuring BUILD is fully community-owned. 3. **Support Onchain Builders**: BUILD is the easiest way to support 100K+ verified builders. Hold it to appear on the Top Builder Supporters leaderboard or use it to fund builder bounties. BUILD is now in the hands of the community. 7\.
