- some lens alpha for the devs, Open Actions is the killer feature for Lens V2 and will become the standard in web3 social interactions if utilised correctly. Let me elaborate
So far, Lens V1 goal was to reach feature parity with the social features you're used to in Web2 platforms. This was achieved , along with few cool web3 features like Collects.
Open actions allows you to take collects to the next level. it gives you DeFi level modularity with contextual social information, allowing you make your contracts integrate social features!!
Example: Let's say I have a defi aggregator that lets you deposit money in different protocols based on yield. what value would open actions bring you?
- scenario 1: user deposits into a fresh liquidity protocol, you can encourage the user to share this as a post on lens with an open action you crafted.
- The open action allows followers of this user on lens to one click copy the position and deploy capital into that pool
- your action can take into account who referred the user, this way they get a referral fee later.
- This can work cross-chains with few additions, you're not locked to where lens is deployed.
Adding these sort of features to your product could change the game for the growth of your TVL, growth doesn't happen by accident, well it does, but sustainable growth doesn't.
Don't get me started on the kinda shit you can build with AI and this. can't discuss that..
The docs has a nice use case for tipping you should check out.
Looking forward to seeing the open actions you gonna come up with.

- 1 Million Transactions (and counting) on Momoka.
In case you need a refresher, Momoka is our Optimistic scaling solution for Lens. It process transactions at hyperscale, and is uniquely designed to support the next generation of web3 social users.
Not every 'gm' is needed onchain.
1 Million transactions on Momoka cost ~$500 USD ($0.0005 per txn).
Explore further here:

We're extremely excited about the significant progress we've made with our infrastructure layer over the past year. But we're just getting started.
Next up on the roadmap for Momoka: comments for onchain posts and support for any network.

- Team calls do not need to be 30, 45 or 60 minutes. They can be 3, 7, 12 or 18 min. Same for external calls. The method for reserving more time and winning it back doesn’t work either as people expect to hang on the call until the time is up

- The Role of AI in the Web3 Social
The fusion of AI and Web3 is catalyzing a revolutionary transformation in the social media landscape. Even some @lensprotocol apps have started to use AI on social media for several purposes.
For example, @orbapp.lens uses AI to summarize long content and @kaira.lens uses it to help users create more creative comments for discussion topics with the KairaGPT feature.
However, there are many new potential cases or advantages that dapps can gain via AI integration.
It not only enhances user experience but also forges novel economic models, particularly benefiting creators. Below I delve into some use cases emerging from this synergistic blend:
👉 **Decentralized Content Recommendation**
Unlike traditional platforms, Web3 social networks enable decentralized content recommendation systems. AI algorithms can curate personalized content feeds while respecting user privacy and data ownership, mitigating biases inherent in centralized curation.
👉 **Decentralized Ad Platforms**
AI can power decentralized advertising platforms, connecting creators with relevant brands and advertisers. This not only leads to better ad targeting but also ensures a larger share of advertising revenue flows back to creators and users.
👉 **Blockchain-Verified Identity and Reputation Systems:**
AI can help in developing sophisticated reputation systems based on blockchain-verified identities, ensuring authenticity and trustworthiness in social interactions. Now users have on-chain financial and social capital and we can harvest to have reputation scoring.
👉 **Community-Driven Moderation**
AI can aid in community-driven moderation, helping maintain a positive and respectful discourse while reducing the reliance on centralized moderation authorities. Think this DAO proposing rules and AI executing to platform moderations.
The integration of AI within the Web3 social media paradigm is a monumental stride towards redressing many of the imbalances prevalent in current platforms. It empowers creators with more control over their content, fairer revenue models, and enhanced interaction with their audience.
What is your thought about this? What kind of AI features do you want to see on Lens Protocol social dapps?

Hey @lensprotocol family! We are excited to announce our brand new home, https://hey.xyz!
**Why the change?**
Because we wanted to re-introduce ourselves as the one-stop shop for all things Lens. we will be continuing to showcase the latest features from the protocol while listening to our community for what they want to see next.
We will be exploring communities, open actions, and whole new ways you, your NFTs, and the DAOs you’re a part of can benefit from web3 social powered by Lens. This is just the beginning, so thanks for stopping by, and saying hey!

Exciting news! We're taking a more Lens-native approach to our **Artist of the Week** concept, making it even more special. Join us in our community-driven art collection! Here's how it works:
👉🏼 Nominate a Collectable post by commenting with a link for the post.
👉🏼 Old or new, any collectable post works.
👉🏼 Add 1 link per comment, unlimited comments allowed.
👉🏼 Feel free to explain your choice and praise the art.
👉🏼 Cast your votes by liking comments.
👉🏼 The most-liked comment each week gets purchased by us and added to our art gallery.

- Hello! As promised:
I'm dropping a tune exclusively here on LENS. Not to be find anywhere else!!! An ethereal slow burner.
I hope to get enough collectors to get a new computer. If not, it's ok: I'm here mostly for fun.
- I’ve been playing with my collected art all morning. It’s been -the- missing experience here on Lens, and within the span of a few days we’ve been given not one but two fantastic gallery options:
@collectz.lens and Gallery.so
Music has done well over the past few months specifically because there are apps to use that music. You can play with your collection, brag about it, share it, etc. Meanwhile, our visual art collections have largely disappeared from memory once they leave the feed. Out of sight, out of mind— dormant data.
This is yet another example of what I mean by “Collects as App Data.” Data is only valuable if it’s used. Collectz and Gallery are apps which let me use my Collects. 🙏
So what’s next? How can we let Galleries use and create more data? Well here’s one possibility:
Attached are two images of a Gallery I just made with my H=N/Tezos collection (be very jealous if you missed out on hic et nunc, it was a special place and time).
Link: https://gallery.so/ryanfox/galleries/2TZBUGWfQ7jpZD5F7cbFwZyA9bK
In the second screenshot, see that gap? Imagine I could signal I need help filling that in. Imagine you could recommend the perfect piece to complete my collection. You could send/sell/suggest a piece and get credit (maybe even a reward like a Finder’s Fee).
Now imagine AI reads the visual input of all of this, and reads the blockchain to understand the art, artist, and social data surrounding this art and is able to connect me with the perfect piece. Or it lets me generate a new piece based on the surrounding pieces, and gives proper accreditation and payment.
That would be an app which uses my Collects to help me find or create new Collects. That would be an app running on a Social Operating System.

- Introducing Orb Communities! 🪐
The Community Layer of Web3.
Orb Communities are composable and interoperable, built on top of the @LensProtocol.lens.lens. It makes it easy to integrate community features across Lens apps.
Today, we are thrilled to present the first iteration of Orb Communities, a vision that has been with us since we embarked on the Orb journey a year ago.
These communities are a fundamental part of the composable and interoperable community layer of web3.
User-owned communities empower people by decentralizing authority and making every individual a crucial stakeholder in the community's direction and evolution.
This marks a significant shift from traditional, centralized communities, where only a select few make decisions.
We believe that @LensProtocol Profiles are much more than NFTs.
At the core of our Communities membership lies the ERC-6551 with Lens Profiles turned into Token Bound Accounts (TBA).
Communities are much more vibrant and engaging when built together.
We warmly welcome developers to build upon it! Check out our Mirror for more https://mirror.xyz/orbapp.eth/s5HNwiDup4sw2nbDi8FgZmlcpR6qIulTsW5qh6KRT0I

- What are your thoughts and experiences with traveling alone?
I feel okay about travelling solo, for me it has always been a fun experience, doesn't really mater if i'm alone or not, travelling is great! I visited quite a few places on solo trips including London, Paris, Barcelona, some places around Italy, Shree Lanka, I think my last solo trip was to Mauritius last year. Ofc some places are safer than the others, and it's better to be mindful of that when you're a woman planning a solo trip. ✈️
