- Scaling Decentralized Social with Stani Kulechov | The Edge Podcast
Stani Kulechov is the Founder of Aave and Lens protocols.
In this episode of The Edge Podcast, we interview the legendary DeFi founder Stani Kulechov. Having built Aave into one of the world's largest DeFi protocols with an all-time high of $30B TVL, Stani made the bold move in 2021 to jumpstart another wildly challenging Web3 startup that would deliver a self-sovereign alternative to social media–called Lens.
Lens is a decentralized composable social layer. You can think of it as "not your keys, not your follower graph" and it has proven to be the most foundational lego in the decentralized social stack jumpstarting a Web3 alternative to apps like Twitter or YouTube. Stani joins us to talk about their recently announced scaling solution for decentralized social called Momoka.

- Just thought I’d share a snippet from work today. Architectural details provide a way to work out concepts internally with the design team and communicate design intent to the contractor. Since it’s ultimately up to the contractor to build the designers vision, communication and clarity are key…it’s also a well-known-seldom-admitted-fact that messy drawings cost more money to build.
- All sorts of conspiracies circulating in my head 🤣

- Should Lens have more support for languages such as translations and content discovery based on local languages?
- oh yeah they’re here, which is cool ✨
