I just voted "Flappy's Escape: Breaking Free from the Pipes" on "Poll by @thefriendly.lens" https://snapshot.org/#/polls.lenster.xyz/proposal/0xdcab38aac1a1ca28ecf128227d531035a6e5e3a64a2061747aaf388289c1e5c9 #Snapshot
Sometimes it's the simple things that bring joy #ethcc <span className="hidden"> This post is included in the ethcc round- 2 round (0xfc68882a250f5c444f737b8e4ffbfa6ca769efcd) at quadraticlenster.xyz </span>
Jumped back on the horse to tip for #ethcc quadratic lenster, can confirm no bug with tipping this time 😆 Then again, i set my wmatic limit to something actually reasonable this time, so that might have helped... See, i can pick things up! 😬
Here is a link to our post mortem of the attack: [https://hackmd.io/@6dNOI9lFQYGC280d09lkqg/SJTkBtSc2](https://hackmd.io/@6dNOI9lFQYGC280d09lkqg/SJTkBtSc2) We’ve launched a new round with the same #ethcc hashtag. When processing the voting data the old and new voting data will be merged, with the exception of the two malicious addresses. If you are manually selecting a round, the correct round is ethcc round- 2. However just using #ethcc will put you in the correct round. We have all been extremely touched by the lens community's response to this. You have all been so compassionate and understanding. It's a beautiful thing. We hope to keep cranking up the vibes here with you until the whole world can't help but to join in! <span className="hidden"> This post is included in the ethcc round- 2 round (0xfc68882a250f5c444f737b8e4ffbfa6ca769efcd) at quadraticlenster.xyz </span>
If you were affected by the recent exploit we deeply apologize for our oversight in allowing this to happen. The bug has been fixed, and reimbursements have been sent out. We hope to have a full fix deployed and to continue the round tomorrow morning. Please verify that you have received your Wmatic back. If you were affected and didn't receive compensation please notify us here. The post mortem will be published when the current round is continued. Thank you for your patience and understanding, The quadratic lenster team.
Anyone else have this happen when tipping on quadratic lenster for #ethcc? Tried to tip 5 matic once, but the tx ran until it drained all my wmatic... Oof. Don't know if it was a shady link that i used, my wallet, or something else 😑 Looks like a MEV bot was involved somehow, too. Unexpected, to say that least! Only 100 wmatic was drained, but still.
Just noticed @buttrfly.lens lists! I've been looking for this kind of feature from lens for a while, a way to easily sort out follows that are less visible or prolific. Took the opportunity to make an EV Mavericks list to follow the EVM community on lens 🦁 https://buttrfly.app/list/ausnak54qjb4lluc
We’re testing a new invite system for Lens, allowing selected users to bring their connections into the Lens community.

#Withdrowls mint on @arbitrum.lens to celebrate #Shapella is going well! Just over 2,700 now out of 3,240. Makes for a pretty good excuse to fund public goods 😆 Mint link: https://www.autominter.com/mint/642da59f2f25776b8c06e961 Pictured below is one of my favorite mints, still on the lookout for EVMaverick community member HerOwls 👀

Happy one year anniversary to EVMavericks! I'm honored to be a part of this community. I'm a second-hand owner (i never post on ethfinance despite reading the daily so i bought mine off Looksrare and didn't mint) after EIPandas finally got me curious. It's Wear Your Lion Week to celebrate, but my secret is I'm always wearing mine 🦁
I like how you can tell the EXACT second i downloaded #Orbapp 😆
Massive news today: Shanghai Upgrade date confirmed 📆 ⚡️ • 16.5M ETH has been staked so far (~30B USD) • 25% solo stakers. 30% LIDO. 12% Coinbase. • Date: 12 April, 2023 🧵 Thread: How do ETH withdrawals work? Who are the stakers? Can all of this affect ETH price? 1/11 • What is the Shangai Upgrade? The road so far As you know, with The Merge ETH migrated from POW to POS. In POS, ETH is staked to secure the network. People have been staking ETH since December 2020. 2/11 • What is the Shangai Upgrade? The road so far Up until now, stake ETH was one-way. Stakers could not withdraw it. However, LSD solutions such as Lido appeared and allowed people to mint tokens such as stETH which are close to 1:1 trading, enabling staked ETH liquidity. 3/11 • What is the Shangai Upgrade? The Ethereum network is set to upgrade in Apr 12th 2023. The upgrade will bring changes to the network, including the ability to withdraw staked ETH, worth 30B USD. Not all ETH would be able to be withdrawn at once. 4/11 • Who are the stakers? Lido: 29% Solo stakers: 25% Coinbase: 12% Kraken: 7.5% Binance: 6.1% Others: 20.4% 5/11 • How much ETH will be withdrawn? Not all 15M ETH can be withdrawn at once. There is a queue for validators to gradually unlock it. There are two types of withdrawals, partial and full. 6/11 • Withdrawal types 1. Partial: only interests out, not capital (staked ETH). Maximum amount of ETH possible to be taken is 1M or 1.6B USD 2. Full: interests + capital. Rate limited to only 54,000 ETH/day (7 validators/epoch. 225 epochs/day) | (24*60)/6.4*7*32 = 54,000 7/11 • Sell pressure With 50,400 max ETH withdrawable per day, that's 80M maximum potential sell pressure daily. Last 24hs ETH trading volume was 9B according to CoinGecko. 80M is less than 1% ETH's last 24hs trading volume. 8/11 • LSD = Liquid Staking Derivatives We also need to consider that ~57% of ETH stakers have liquid access to their ETH thanks to solutions like Lido or Rocketpool. So these people could have sold long ago, they did not have to wait until April 12 like the other 43% 9/11 • ETH issuance in POW? Before The Merge, block reward was 2.2 ETH per block. At an AVG rate of 15 seconds/block, that is around 11,500 ETH per day. 10/11 Some of the information from this thread was taken from this report by Binance Research: 🔗 https://research.binance.com/en/analysis/ethereum-shanghai-upgrade And Dune: 🔗 https://dune.com/hildobby/eth2-staking 11/11 Final thoughts on Shanghai • The Shanghai Upgrade is a crucial step in the development of the Ethereum network. • It might cause some price movement in the short term, but for me it is bullish for the ecosystem long term. ETH has been deflationary in the last 7 days. Join Alpha Discord: https://earndrop.io/discord

`getting started` with #lens in 5 steps 🪴 [March 2023 update] (0 a) maybe consider adding some information about yourself and a pfp to your profile before you start. (0 b) "hello world" posts get quite some attention ... 😉 . (if you can post something related to what you are interested in ... 🎇 -> People you start following might take a look at your profile and follow if they are interested in the content you share.) Find one great example at the end of the post. (1) https://lists.inlens.xyz/lists/818891525288558593 *updated* - list of great profiles to start your lens journey ... you will discover a ton, worth following profiles in the communities of people in this list. lists.inlens.xyz/ in general is a great starting point. (2) find your twitter contacts on lens: inlens.xyz/ (not everyone with a lens profile, active on twitter, is very active on lens (yet ;-)). Maybe consider connecting with new people, sharing interesting content on lens.) (3) probably you read this post on @lenster.lens . If you are interested in lens mobile apps, @orbapp.lens and @buttrfly.lens (iOS only) are at the moment - imo - the most advanced general purpose lens mobile apps. One of the beautiful things regarding lens is that it doesn't matter which lens app you use, every lens app has access to the same content and social graph. (4) what you share on lens is stored and publicly available for a very long time. Probably *forever*. You can hide posts, comments and mirrors. But that's a front-end feature, the data is still available and publicly accessible. (5) "collects" are a very powerful concept, adding a NFT version of the post to your address (4th symbol below a post on @lenster.lens ). Collects can be monetised -> creators can use collect fees to earn money on lens. `advanced topics` other mobile apps: @lentilapp.lens (iOS native general purpose app), @converseapp.lens (iOS @xmtplabs.lens mobile messaging app pls contact @polmaire.lens if you are interested), @lenstaxyz.lens image focused lens mobile app. other browser apps: @pinsta.lens pin lens content, create and publish pinsta boards. @beatsapp.lens music focused lens app . @focalize.lens browser extension for posting on lens. @youfolio.lens trading lens creator tokens. @dumpling.lens video platform on lens. market place: @lensport . Buy and sell collects, create token gated posts. fun: @thesmurfssociety.lens smurfs game, get early access with your lens profile. Mix recipes, find potions and crystals. Be careful highly addictive. @memester-xyz.lens create memes easily and publish directly on lens. lenstube.xyz/ videos on lens. www.lyrical.world (#LensAI) create ai generated images and publish on lens. @amnisiac.lens listen to music in your feed or other profile's feed (e.g. @mixtape.lens ). @truthordare.lens ;-). tools: @chainjet.lens automate processes, like notifications ( @remindmebot.lens 👀). @lensdropxyz raffle tokens based on constraints (e.g. 1 of the profiles who collected post xyz will get a NFT). @wav3s.lens incentivise people to mirror or comment content. @madfinance.lens Lens Bounties, allowing creators to earn "by creating a Lens post using the creative direction of a brand". @theshr.lens decentralised publishing platform. @letsrally.lens lens spaces. @wagmifund.lens decentralised crowd funding platform. @ethpass.lens add your lens profile to Apple or google wallet. data: profile.lenskit.xyz profile overview with a github like activity board. https://dune.com/xmc2/lens-profiler get an overview of your lens statistics. coming soon: @onboardapp general purpose app. @ensocollective digital closet. @lensplayxyz.lens video browsing. #theDial by @emmajane1313.lens . @lenstags.lens content discovery and organisation . #LensGarden dynamic activity based NFTs and more ;-). lens protocol stats - provided by @buttrfly.lens (weekly posts + comments): @lenster.lens 58.9% @phaver.lens 27.4% @orbapp.lens 8.0% #lenstube 1.3% @lensport.lens 0.5% @buttrfly.lens 0.4% lens history: approx 5 months ago #lensBeats appeared promising $BEATS airdrops for following and interacting with (collecting) its content. A few weeks, lots of attention and a few K WMATIC later #lensBeats burned its lens profile. If you are interested in content distribution and increasing your reach on lens, maybe the following post is a good starting point: https://lenster.xyz/posts/0x017566-0xdf (e.g. @bvdaniel.lens combined his introduction post with an eye catching visual (only follower can collect) and an incentivised mirror (+100 followers ). 120+ collects, 80+ mirrors, 40+ comments ...) list of all lens apps: www.lens.xyz/apps #gettingstarted #5steps #newonlens #howto #onboarding #0to1

Well @corellianjedi2.lens asked so here it is, Round 2 of my favorite cocktail ChatGPT has made me this week. 🍸 **The Black Manhattan** Sweet, brown sugar + bourbon + cherry Additional info: “If you don't have Averna Amaro, you can substitute it with another Italian amaro such as Amaro Montenegro, Amaro Nonino, or Amaro Lucano. These amaros have similar characteristics to Averna, with a slightly different flavor profile, so they will work well in a Black Manhattan cocktail. Alternatively, you can use other bitter liqueurs like Campari or Cynar, but note that they may affect the overall flavor of the cocktail. You can also experiment with other brown sugar syrups, like Demerara or muscovado, to create different variations of the Black Manhattan.”
Vibing with @orbapp.lens so far, definitely what i need as a 99% mobile web3 citizen. My only suggestion so far? Have an option to make the home row/control bar at the bottom visible at all times. I get into trouble where i surf from post to post; when i want to go home or search i need to mash the back button to find my way out.
Thoroughly enjoying @orbapp.lens so far after downloading it today. Buttery smooth, and doesn't immediately turn my phone into a tinder box like metamask mobile does when trying to just scroll posts a bit 🧊
