Crypto is life
Publications
- Okay now we updated the roadmap
1. Permissionless
2. LensFest
3. Decentralization
Whats else should be on the roadmap 👀
- One of the biggest challenges in Web3 is balancing composability and risk.
Two recent innovations have opened the door to create novel social experiences while tackling this dilemma.
**Lens Open Actions** and **Farcaster Frames**
Open actions are smart contract calls embedded into an on-chain publication.
They enable developers to embed specific contract calls, parameters, revenue models, and logic (token-gating, follow-gating).
The key benefits of embedding an interaction as a smart contract module are provenance and immutability.
Both the creator and executor can explicitly agree to the terms of execution, and these terms can be verified by anyone.
Frames are a way to embed interactive apps into a social feed.
They enable developers to embed an image and buttons into a social feed, and trigger a callback on button press to update the frame.
Some use cases of Frames are polls, games, or relay-sponsored transactions.
Frames provide a rigid way to embed a frontend experience, while delegating the execution to a callback function which can execute anything.
Open actions are essentially the complement to this design: explicitly defined action and open-ended frontend experience.
The beauty of these primitives and Web3 in general is that they can work interoperably.
I envision a world where where publications on Lens and Farcaster can co-exist by referencing and interacting with each other.
One thing is for certain: the future of agreements is on-chain.

- Lenny wants to help you understand the basics of the Lens Protocol! 🌿
Many newcomers have recently joined the Lens ecosystem, and here is a brief FAQ about the Lens Protocol! 👇
1️⃣ What is Lens Protocol?
The Lens Protocol is a Web3 social graph on the Polygon blockchain. It empowers creators to own the links between themselves and their community, forming a fully composable, user-owned social graph.
2️⃣ What is a Lens Profile NFT?
Profiles on Lens are represented by a Profile NFT, the main object in the Lens Protocol. Owning this NFT gives you control over your social graph and content. Individual addresses own ProfileNFTs, and an address can have multiple ProfileNFTs. Atm, only invited users can claim a Lens Profile NFT.
3️⃣ What differentiates the Lens Profile NFT from other on-chain IDs?
Profile NFTs can post content. They contain the history of all your posts, quotes, mirrors, comments, and other content. All your social data are linked to your Lens Profile NFT.
4️⃣ What is a Lens Handle?
Lens Handles are like usernames on a social network, for example, @lens/stani @lens/punkess or @lens/jessyjeanne
5️⃣ Do I need to pay a gas fee while posting on Lens apps?
No, if you enable your Lens Manager while using any @lens/lens apps like @lens/orbapp @lens/kaira @lens/phaver or @lens/t2world you don’t need to pay a fee or sign on-chain transactions for posting, commenting, liking, etc.
6️⃣ Do I need different Lens Profile NFTs to use different Lens apps?
No. With a single Lens Profile NFT, you can explore all Lens apps. Each app is a client offering different UX and benefits, and they all feed from the Lens Protocol. Your posts, comments, etc., from different apps, can be seen in other apps.
7️⃣ What is the collect feature?
You can post collectible posts. Set a price, supply, or time limit with advanced settings. It's a new way of on-chain social engagement!
We hope this guide is useful for newcomers! 🌿

- 46 Reimagining Content Collecting with Mint & @lens/bellosights — @lens/levychain
Recorded between NYC and Liverpool. We talk music and playing drums, onchain media and messing about with technology.
How Adam's early podcasts drinking with Mark Cuban in 2020 illuminated a path forward to creating Mint and putting out 7 seasons so far with guests in crypto, music and entertainment.
Which led to creating Bello and exploring what onchain data reveals about audiences, mints, web3 social, and communities.

- HNY everyone!
2024 and Lens to me is about finding the unfamiliar again and truly building generational tech and products. Copying what’s come before is the safer and easier choice but doesn’t create the same groundbreaking impact.
I reflect a lot on TikTok, when I joined I knew ByteDance had built something innovative in Asia, but it’s future in the west in wasn’t so clear. My friends thought I was crazy leaving my current situation and didn’t understand what it could become. To everyone now it’s obvious, but back then it wasn’t and disregarded by many before it’s hockey stick growth and inflection point.
Being able to now say I was part of a generational global product now is something I’m very proud of. I’ll never forget being allocated the same desk in NYC WeWork with 12 desks as Zhang Yiming on my first day who was in town and graciously told me to keep it. Or early days having the opportunity to be in meetings with Alex Zhu whose philosophy about social apps as countries and co creation as a social fabric still resonates today and blue print for social builders. Even I didn’t realize it at the time how lucky I was, but I hold these moments today.
It’s why in jumped into web3 finally after many years of being on the surface personally. I had conviction after my bet on ByteDance played out and excited to embark on another.
Next goal is being able to say I was part of infrastructure backbone making possible the next wave of innovative consumer products.
While the power of @lens/lensprotocol may be invisible to most, if there is one thing I’ve learned it’s that game changing tech more than often comes from what not everyone sees.
It’s never what’s familiar and expected to all. That’s why it’s disruptive.
2024 let’s rock.

- Hey Lensfrens!! 🍷
Continuing with my Chile photo dumps, let’s talk about **Valparaíso**. This city might not grab your attention at first with its old port and buildings, but the real charm is hidden in the Cerros. Walking through these hills, I found amazing street art at every corner. It's like the whole city is an art gallery!
One of the things I loved most were the cats – they’re everywhere! On the streets, in the art, adding life to the city. As a proud mom of 3 cats and a cat lover, Valparaíso felt like a special place. It’s a city where art and cats blend perfectly, making every street worth exploring.
Have you been to Valpa? Did you lose yourself among the Cerros? Let me know!
