The Uniswap Foundation released its Bridge Assessment Report on Thursday, a major community undertaking that saw the biggest decentralized exchange (DEX) formally examine some of the core infrastructure powering its governance process. Uniswap is the largest DEX by trading volume. It was among the first blockchain-based programs to offer a decentralized alternative to the traditional currency exchange – using smart contracts to allow users to swap between different crypto tokens without the need for trusted middlemen. The foundation has used a group of nine experts to analyze six of the leading crypto bridge providers – vital pieces of crypto infrastructure that allow blockchains to pass messages from one to another. After a comprehensive review involving code evaluation and direct interaction with the bridge teams, the committee approved Wormhole and Axelar for Uniswap's specific use case of protocol governance. Other bridges including LayerZero, Celer, DeBridge and Multichain did not meet the committee's criteria. The report leaves open the possibility for some protocols to be reevaluated following future updates. The assessment was designed to address some key issues faced by Uniswap and other decentralized governance bodies: The need for specialized expertise when weighing big decisions, and the potential for conflicts of interest to muddy community deliberations. The committee took pains to repeatedly note that its findings were “narrow in scope” and “should only be used to evaluate cross-chain messaging protocols for this use case,” the report said. The results of the process are not binding: Whenever Uniswap expands to a new blockchain, its community will ultimately be tasked with voting on the bridge platform that will be used to back its governance process. (LayerZero, which wasn’t approved by the committee, is already used by Uniswap on the Avalanche blockchain).
"The Hash" hosts take a deep dive into today's hot topics in crypto: BlackRock, the world's biggest asset manager, is close to filing an application for a Bitcoin ETF, according to a CoinDesk source. The Hong Kong Monetary Authority put pressure on 3 major banks to take on crypto exchanges as clients, the Financial Times said. Apple (AAPL) has rejected the latest version of the non-custodial Lightning-enabled Bitcoin wallet Zeus, according to a tweet by Zeus founder Evan Kaloudis. Plus, Telos Foundation Head of Business Development AJ Dinger joins the show to discuss its new partnership with Gamestop.
Preparing advisors for Web3 financial services The above dynamics in the banking sector go beyond virtual awnings and buying pixelated land. Banks are taking measures to prepare their financial advisors and wealth managers for Web3-based financial products. This includes metaverse ETF and metaverse index products, fueled by the growing market capitalization of metaverse tokens and a shift to investing in digital assets by millennials, Gen X and Gen Z clients.
Kookmin and DBS, two banking giants from Asia, have also entered the metaverse and begun offering various services. South Korea’s Kookmin Bank has its own native metaverse-based financial services as well as one-on-one customer service. It also plans to include employee training and financial education for young consumers. As for DBS, Singapore’s biggest bank, it purchased a large plot of land on The Sandbox to develop interactive experiences aimed at promoting a more sustainable world. According to the bank, the partnership is part of efforts to explore the potential of Web3 opportunities and spread awareness on important ESG issues. In Canada, incumbent financial institutions TD and RBC are conducting metaverse pilot programs to understand the technology and stay ahead of the game to be able to offer immersive services effectively to their customers. TD’s program this year ran from January to April, which included pilots in customer experience.

おはよう @ethglobal.lens Tokyo! 🇯🇵 The Lens team is on the ground and we're so excited to bring the social layer of web3 to Japan. We have $20k in prizes for the hackathon! 🥇 1st $5k 🥈 2nd $3k 🥉 3rd $2k 🎖️ 10 best Lens Integrations for nullk each Lens is web3 native meaning it’s simple to build native payment features directly into your app. Mirrors, collects, follows and comments allow creators to monetize their content directly to the user, without intermediaries, and in a permissionless way. Premium content, token-gated rewards, tipping, crowdfunding, subscription services, referral, and affiliate programs are just a handful of the countless types of integrations you can build with Lens. Looking for some inspiration? - We're still in the early innings of AI and ML and want to see more devs utilizing the latest innovations from OpenAI, Replicate, HuggingFace, LangChain, and Dust just to name a few. Imagine the possibilities when web3 social intersects with AI/ML 🤯 - You could use AI/ML to analyze a user’s feed over the course of a few days and condense it into a single view so they can visit less often and still be up to date with what’s the latest and greatest. - Or create a social learning platform that uses AI to create personalized learning paths for users. It could assess users' knowledge levels, recommend relevant learning materials, and provide real-time feedback and guidance. - You could use Lens profiles specifically for your gaming identity. Imagine your in-game items and high scores attached to your Lens profile and you curate a Lens leaderboard for the community. - Bust a move! Build an app that lets users participate in virtual dance-off challenges. Users can record and upload their dances, challenge friends or random users, and compete for the elusive best dancer on Lens title 💃🕺 - Build a community app for @galverse.lens on Lens that utilizes the Splits for Collects feature (https://docs.lens.xyz/docs/create-post-typed-data#multirecipientfeecollectmodule) and you'll help with the development of the anime, character design, story, and more. - Imagine using the Collect module for more exclusive content such as event ticketing. - How about building a governance forum specifically for Lens users? gm DAOs 🤔 - Calling all pet lovers out there. Create a social platform where users can showcase their pets' talents, tricks, and general awesomeness. Users can upload videos of their pets and participate in virtual talent shows, with categories like "Best Trick," and "Funniest Moment" - Want to bridge that gap from web2 social to web3? Build a site that shows you the most followed people that have used a site (maybe the 🐦 app) or help users connect their web2 account and generate a ZKP for mapping. - Or a Lens creator dashboard for tracking post analytics (engagement, collects, revenue, etc) and helping you find your 1000 true fans. - Maybe you find yourself collecting every post from one of the 100k profiles already on Lens. Create a module to “subscribe” to someone and automatically collect everything the post within certain parameters. Here are some resources to support your hackathon efforts. Dev Docs https://docs.lens.xyz/docs Hackathon Guide https://lens.xyz/hackathons Lens Integrations https://docs.lens.xyz/docs/integrating-lens Lens SDK details https://github.com/lens-protocol/lens-sdk @nader.lens will be on stage April 14th at 7:30 PM JST in the Toranomon Hills Forum, 5th Floor | Workshop Room 1, for a developer-focused session on Building Full Stack Web3 Social Applications. Reach out to @nader.lens and @jessglover.lens for any questions on the ground in Tokyo. And make sure to stop by the Lens booth. Show us what you're building and you just might get some exclusive swag.
Lens Protocol is open, anyone who has a profile can have permissionless access regardless of what application they are using. We believe in supporting content creators and followers who create an engaging environment for everyone. Some applications use gasless and signless transactions, and we have now introduced eligibility requirements for these features. While everyone is eligible by default, accounts with low-signal engagement will not be eligible. You can read more about our requirements here. https://docs.lens.xyz/docs/gasless#eligibility-requirements We are also testing filtering low-signal notifications for a better user experience. https://docs.lens.xyz/docs/users-notifications#api-details At Lens, we believe that Web3 social should create a better experience than before, by using blockchain technology. We are always experimenting with ways to better our user experience by filtering low-signal profiles and bots. Let’s keep experimenting, our DMs are open for feedback 🧪

In this episode we talk about Sirsu’s journey from earlier days in gaming, art and crypto. You’ll hear stories from the origins of Zora, Rarible and Foundation. Being in telegram groups for art and NFTs long before the hype really came into the space. What it’s been like for Sirsu behind the scenes. Extraordinary experiences like raising null million in one day on a Mirror crowd fund and booting up an eSports organization with multiple teams competing around the world. Helping to launch Mint Fund in collaboration with others at Forefront, Zora and Seed Club ~ a community-owned initiative helping crypto creators mint their first NFTs.
