A channel is a public space for your community to have conversations.

Creating a channel starts a new feed for your community. People can join, cast and find other interesting people. It sparks conversations that wouldn’t otherwise happen on the home feed.

Starting a channel also helps grow your audience:

1. Warpcast will send your followers a notification about your channel.
2. Your channel will be promoted to users who follow similar channels.
3. Users who follow your channel will see channel casts in their home feed.

Channel Rewards

Warpcast also runs a rewards program for channel creators, focussing on people who create new channels at first. The algorithm for how this works is still being developed.

Creating a channel

Channels are permissionless and now anyone can create their own channel.

All you need to do is:

• On mobile: open the sidebar by pressing your avatar on the top left, then press “Create a channel” at the bottom. On web/desktop: scroll to the bottom of the channels list in the left sidebar and press “Create a channel”.
• Pick a unique name, like jazz-music.
• Pay the yearly fee of 2,500 warps.
