How it works
"They first leverage the security of Ethereum to store Identities on-chain in smart contracts, the address that controls the Identity can then be used to sign off-chain messages on it’s behalf. This off-chain infrastructure is Farcasters own, always on - user controlled servers called ‘Hubs’. These hubs are used to validate, store, and replicate signed messages. This data is stored off chain due to it being expensive to store on most L1’s and L2’s.
With this system Farcaster enables a deeper focus on the application layer. Applications are programmes people use to interact with the Farcaster network, meaning users can switch between applications anytime to what best suites their needs. These applications can vary in complexity, some may only publish new messages and view messages published by others. While other apps may index the data and enable search, algorithmic feeds, and spam detection. These features of which are difficult or expensive to perform on the Hub itself."
