Hub Message

A Message is a delta operation on the Farcaster network that represents a state change. Messages are the fundamental unit of data in Farcaster and can represent various actions like: - Creating or removing casts (posts) - Adding or removing reactions - Following or unfollowing users - Updating profile data - Verifying Ethereum addresses Each message contains: - A MessageData object with the actual content - A hash of the content for integrity verification - A cryptographic signature to prove authenticity - The signer's public key for verification Messages are immutable once created and form an append-only log of all user actions on the network.
