Monniverse Bonsai Fest 🧜 I don't have a lot of experience with meme tokens, but I'm a fan of the @lens/bonsai token, which is currently popular on Lens. This token will be used for many utilities on Lens in the future, so we are already following it closely 🤩 @lens/monniverseofficial

Last night I wanted to try Kaira V2 and I came across this welcome message 😍 I think they created personalized welcome messages for everyone. I wonder yours guys @lens/mazemari and @lens/0xzelda
Happy Wednesday with huge tasks!! 😬
A personal favourite so far.
Just checked out the teaser for Kaira V2 🤯 It hinted at new features, improvements, UX, etc. I haven't quite pieced together what's happening, but it seems like it's going to be a big change 👌 Big updates always carry a bit of risk; they can either significantly enhance the platform or make things more complicated. I’m hopeful that @lens/kaira will manage these changes seamlessly. It will be interesting to see how these adjustments aim to improve the overall UX and the new opportunities they might bring. Let’s wait and see 👀
Hey frens, collect this $pointless gm post! 🐒

🟧 How can Open Actions help to onboarding new users to DeFi? Imagine writing a post about a gem token you discovered and embedding @lens/uniswap swap contract directly into the media field of your post instead of an analysis image. Users can execute swap actions directly on the post without going to Uniswap. The platform where you share this smart post could be taking a small fee for every open action and sharing it with the user who made the post. Therefore, you can generate referral income by natively creating traffic for on-chain transactions. If you wish, you can set your post to share a desired portion of its revenue with those who RT / Quote your post. This creates an endless reward pool for the organic promotion of your post. As the @lens/lens post is promoted and generates swap traffic, you earn a fee, and a predetermined portion of this fee is automatically distributed to those who promote it. Instead of a swap, imagine adding all NFTs of a collection listed on OpenSea to the media field of your post in a carousel format, with the price and buy button below. What other use cases like this can be created?
Have a great Thursday frens 🍒 Gm ❤️

On-Chain Social Media Requires Harmony! Open Social Graphs, like the @lens/lens map the relationships and interactions among users on a public, decentralized network. They offer a transparent and interoperable framework for social connections. This openness encourages a more interconnected and accessible ecosystem, breaking down the barriers commonly found in traditional social media. This is one of the core values because, as a creator, you can own your content, reactions, and relationships with on-chain proof. Having on-chain relationships or interactions also introduces new ways to interact with content, such as collecting, farming, and tokenizing content, among others. At this point, on-chain social apps need to become more creative in building new features, but at the same time, they need to offer a more familiar UI & UX. There should be a harmony that not only encourages users with an intuitive UX but also empowers them with new, unique on-chain features. I am curious to hear your thoughts about what founders should prioritize in their apps. Share your thoughts 👇

What is your random fact? that you say "don't ask how I know"? Mine is: If your cat chews on fresh eucalyptus leaves, they might end up hallucinating and repeatedly falling over. Now it's your turn ⬇️
Some interesting facts! Chocolate contains a compound called theobromine, which is toxic to dogs and cats. This compound, similar to caffeine, can cause serious health issues in pets but is perfectly safe for humans as we know Another one is that the human body is made up of about 37 trillion cells, and surprisingly, we also carry about 38 trillion bacteria in our body, which means we're almost as much bacteria as we are human! Drop weird or interesting facts that you know 👇️🤓
Coffee can fix everything ☕

Exploring a fairer future in social media with Kaira 🧐 Web2 social media platforms generate massive profits from user-generated content, yet creators rarely receive their fair share. This imbalance in value distribution has been a long-standing issue. We are developing a social economy on @lens/lensprotocol that genuinely rewards creators. With our upcoming V2 release, we aim to further enhance this, ensuring a more equitable distribution of value among creators and their fans. The next evolution for social networks will be more democratized ✌️

My Kaira Journey Hey everyone 🌿 It's been quite a journey since I joined Kaira. I've seen this platform evolve, and I'm amazed at how much I've accomplished here. I've interacted with incredible content and even shared some of my thoughts and creations. Guess what? I've already racked up a significant amount of $KAIRA tokens! It's rewarding to see my contributions being valued in real terms. But what excites me is the upcoming launch of the platform's V2 upgrade and $KAIRA token. I can't wait to see how it will enhance our interactions and the overall dynamics of the platform. The thought of being able to trade $KAIRA on exchanges adds an extra layer of thrill to the whole experience. While everyone is talking about POINTS I wanted to highlight @kaira and the benefits it already provides to creators. Because their rewarding model pushes you to contribute posts by commenting, mirroring collecting, etc. The anticipation for what's next is real. Can't wait to see where we're headed! How's your Kaira journey going?
