Developers have started building on top of existing frameworks and created easier way to create Frames, but still only for developers and technical people alike. To put this into perspective and provide an example for the difficulty of creating Frames: no matter how easy to use a specific framework is, you still have to host the Frame yourself on a VPS (server) or similar hosting solution. The growth of Frames is severely hindered by the lack of a UI first solution to build these Frames that also integrates hosting under the hood w/out the user having to do _anything_ extra.\n\nFrameTrain has made that possible, but the road ahead has just begun. The next steps are to integrate more templates (achieved through FrameHack and this proposal) and to make the existence of our solution known to current users, they will in turn share these new and useful type of interactions with non Farcaster users (either on platforms like Twitter, or direct sharing with their friends).\n\nWe envision a 10x growth of the Farcaster protocol through a solution like FrameTrain. This is not a downplayed, nor an exaggerated factor of growth. The protocol has grown in revenue 10x already (from under ~$200,000 to over ~$2M revenue) after the launch of Frames (given all current barriers of entry noted above). \n\nWe also see a considerable amount of new accounts & transactions on Polygon, each for various reasons:\n- Minting (supported natively in Frames)\n- Swapping (through Frames that enable that)\n- Attestations (through the Ethereum Attestation Service)\n- Various contract interactions\n\n\nMETRICS\nWith ~1,150 users registering on Farcaster every 24 hours, we expect this number to at least double in Q4.\n\nWe estimate that 0.05% of all Polygon transactions will come from Frames created on FrameTrain, which means around 1,650 tx per day.", "hidden": true, "question": "Describe how your project will increase DAA and transaction volume on Polygon PoS.

On \ud83d\ude82 FrameTrain you can create Frames w/out code straight from a template, just like Canva. In essence this results in thousands of different Frames created from one template.\n\nThis is possible due to FrameTrain's architecture, which can be better understood by going to the Github repo, as the project is fully open source (and templates live in the same repository).\n\nWe clarify that this proposal is strictly for FrameHack #2, and *the entire grant amount goes directly to winners*.\n\nMore info about the first edition can be found here: [github.com/FTCHD/frametrain/wiki/[HACKATHONS]-FrameHack-%231](http://github.com/FTCHD/frametrain/wiki/%5BHACKATHONS%5D-FrameHack-%231)\n\nWe **guarantee** the following templates will be created during FrameHack #2:\n\n- **Ask Me Template**: A Frame that allows you to pay the original caster in order to answer your question, similar to [ask.fm](http://ask.fm) but onchain.\n- **Bet Template**: Place a bet with a counterparty and pay if they win/get paid if you win, all in a Frame!\n- **Airdrop Template**: Run an airdrop and let people claim it straight from a Frame.\n- **Ad Spot Template**: Pin this Frame on your Farcaster profile and let others bid on it to show their own image, essentially renting ad space on your profile.\n- **NFT Store Template**: An NFT shop inside a Frame, which allows you to list any NFT and have other users buy it directly from a Frame.\n- **Copytrade Template**: Allows anyone else to copy your portfolio by swapping the tokens in their wallet, to the tokens in your wallet.\n\nAll of the templates above and the Frames resulting from them will use and be compatible with \ud83d\udfea Polygon.\n\nYou can see the list of tracks for the hackathon on the Issues tab on Github (github.com/FTCHD/frametrain/issues), and more info about the hackathon on the Wiki (github.com/FTCHD/frametrain/wiki/%5BHACKATHONS%5D-FrameHack-%232). Hackathon information is still WIP and the total pot of $10,000 has not been filled yet.\n\n**Our mission is to create utility, not just novelty that may create transactions for a week or so.**\n\n**Depending on who you are (project/business, builder, normie) these templates bring real value to you, and there\u2019s no other place to get them from.**", "lastUpdated": 0}, "recipient": "0xe7910f8A4b7eFCf2964F017e34e4E2D9AA06EDc3"}}
