—— What makes Lens special? ——
1. It’s decentralized and composable.
All Lens data is stored on the Polygon blockchain. This means that no company has control of your data, only you do! No one can delete your profile, posts, or followers
Composable means that all of your data (followers, posts, etc) appear on every Lens website/app… it’s all shared!
If you switch to a new Lens website, your data is already there!
2. Posts can be collected
Every post can be “collected” a set number of times for a price set by its creator. When a post is collected, a “collect” is created. This is a copy of a post. Each post can have a limited amount of collects
Collects can be collected on most Lens platforms and can be bought, sold, and traded on LensPort
Collects function as the economy of Lens! They are a novel new mechanism for creators to earn and for collectors to feel social ownership
Try collecting your first post for free! https://lensport.io/p/1_1

- **📝 Everything you need to know about the new Quadratic Lenster 📝**
Quadratic Lenster was just introduced at #ethcc and my mind is blown!! There are also many questions about it and I dig posts, code, videos, and websites to aggregate all info for you. Are you ready?
**🤔 What is Quadratic Lenster?**
Quadratic Lenster is a platform that helps you manage grant programs. It's a fork of Lenster with an added functionality of quadratic funding. This means it's a tool that helps you organize and distribute funds for different projects or causes in a democratic way that values community support. Quadratic Lenster is powered by Gitcoin's Allo Protocol, an open-source protocol that enables groups to efficiently and transparently allocate pooled capital.

🔗 @quadraticlenster.lens
**💡 What is Quadratic Funding?**
Quadratic funding, conceived by Vitalik Buterin, Glen Weyl, and Zoë Hitzig and already known by the Gitcoin community, is a way of distributing funds where the amount given to a project is decided by how many people support it. This means that if lots of people give a little, it can be worth more than if one person gives a lot!
A single null tip can be amplified to have an impact as high as $100, or even more! Depending on the round total cap, the amount of projects (or posts here on Lens) participating and the amount of tips distributed.
🔗 [https://www.wtfisqf.com/](https://www.wtfisqf.com/)
**🚀 Quadratic Lenster and EthCC:**
Quadratic Lenster was announced at EthCC by Kevin Owocki @owocki.lens , the co-founder of Gitcoin. The platform was launched with a **$10k Quadratic Funding (QF)** round for anyone using the #EthCC hashtag.
The current funding round, known as the EthCC round, is ongoing and will end on **21st July 2023**.
**🎁 How to Participate in the EthCC Round?**
*Visit the Platform***:** Head over to the Quadratic Lenster website. This is where all the magic happens.
🔗 [https://www.quadraticlenster.xyz/](https://www.quadraticlenster.xyz/)
*Create a Post***:** To participate in the EthCC round, you need to create a post mentioning the #ethcc hashtag. Posts created on the original Lenster website **will not** be included in the EthCC round.
*Tip for Projects***:** Support others tipping for them! This is where the quadratic funding comes in. The more people tip for a project, the more funding it gets. **Important**: you can collect posts too if you want, but only the tips are counted for the funding distribution!
**👀 Viewing the Ongoing EthCC Round:**
You can view the ongoing EthCC round and its progress on the rounds overview page of the Quadratic Lenster website.
🔗 [https://www.quadraticlenster.xyz/rounds-overview](https://www.quadraticlenster.xyz/rounds-overview)
**🛠️ Creating Your Own Round:**
If you're inspired by the EthCC round and want to create your own for a cause you care about, you can do so on the Manager Page.

If you found this post helpful, share it with others, so everybody can participate in the current round before it ends!
If you want to support me, you can also tip this post. Remember, with the power of Quadratic Funding, a single tip can be worth a lot!

- Today marks our 1 Year Anniversary of making friends onchain 🎂!
Thank you to everyone who has made the first year of Lens Protocol so special and groundbreaking. Lens has brought together builders, creators, communities, and friends, all while in beta.
There's so much planned for the second year ahead, and we can't wait to continue to grow with all of you.
Who did you become frens with on Lens?

- I am working on an article every two weeks because I want to focus on quality. Two weeks is an excellent timeframe to deliver consistently, but also to have the time to breathe fresh air 😇.
I asked on Lens what my following writings should be about ✌️.
@arminhoori and @sergiobaltar had some excellent suggestions, and I will cover those topics soon.
But I have a question for you 🧐
What do you want to read from me? ✍️
Challenge me 🤯, make my life hard 💪. I am here for an adventure ⚡️, not for autopilot.
Anyway, don't worry. One of the coming posts I am working on is How to grow your Lens account: Episode 500 to 3000 followers 🔥
- Food Orbing
- How to grow your Lens account (0 to 500 followers).
Tip #9: Be an engineer, not a marketer.
Data is everything 📊. In content creation as well.
Data in Lens is so public that anyone can look deeper at it and understand what's behind every interaction.
So, as soon as you gain momentum, keep generating interactions and learn from them.
Enjoy the short feedback loop that Lens gives you to understand what works and learn from it.
It will make you a better creator.

- Been thinking a lot about what web3 native content looks like for a project like Galverse on a protocol like Lens.
Do we use something like Orb's built-in token gating to post holder-only stuff, a bit like our Discord holder announcement channels? That turns it into either a Discord replacement, or companion.
Is there some form of content that performs better here, or that can't be done anywhere else? Collects seems to be the killer app in that case. That creates a new work stream entirely, and we need to do a lot of experimenting.
There's always the question of where to find your audience too.
Lens is full of crypto natives. Crypto twitter is mostly crypto natives, but a decent chunk our audience probably fell off during the last crash.
Instagram or TikTok are not really web3 at all, but are probably a great place to find new fans of our anime in the works.
I wouldn't be surprised if there's some stratification in the future~ where projects split their web2 and web3 audiences and content entirely across different platforms, if they can afford the bandwidth to do it. To date, I don't think any NFT project has effectively bridged the gap with web2 audiences while still respecting their holders and core members (change my view).
Thoughts from Lens pros?!

- **Introducing: Cross-Posting** 🌿🟣🐦
Post to Lens, Farcaster, and Twitter with one click. Now live in Yup Mobile.
Yup puts the best of Lens, Farcaster, Mirror, Twitter, NFTs, POAPs and more in one endless feed. The latest alpha, the most galaxy-brained takes, and the dankest memes -- all on your phone. Curated content from across the decentralized web. That's the power of composability.
But that's not enough. Social is not a one-way street. We need more than consumption -- we need *creation*. So we built that, too.
Yup now supports web3 cross-posting. With one click, you can create content on Lens, Farcaster, and Twitter simultaneously. This is a true first for web3 social.
So far, Yup has *aggregated* content: from many platforms to one app. With cross-posting, we imagine a future beyond aggregation, powered by composable creation: from one app to many platforms.
This is what composability is all about. Separate platforms being united to create better shared experiences. In web2, social networks competed in a zero-sum game. In web3, we grow together.
**If you've been invited to Yup, go try your first cross-post now! Sign it with:** 🌿🟣🐦
