- Mastering The Crypto PR Playbook | The Edge Podcast
Samantha Yap is the Founder and CEO of YAP Global.
In this episode of The Edge Podcast, we speak with one of leading experts on PR (public relations) specific to the the crypto industry. Samantha Yap is a former journalist who started the crypto PR firm YAP Global in 2016. She has worked with clients from teams such as Frax Finance, Gitcoin, ETHDenver, and The Ethereum Foundation.
We'll apply her insights and strategies to a variety of major crypto events (ie the Euler hack) to demonstrate how founders and teams can strategically approach PR to build trust and credibility in their brand, including in times of crisis.

- Lens Hackathon presentations happening now at @ethglobal.lens Tokyo!
- Limited edition Lens PopSockets available at @ethglobal.lens Tokyo
- おはよう @ethglobal.lens Tokyo! 🇯🇵
The Lens team is on the ground and we're so excited to bring the social layer of web3 to Japan.

🥈 2nd $3k
🥉 3rd $2k
🎖️ 10 best Lens Integrations for nullk each
Lens is web3 native meaning it’s simple to build native payment features directly into your app. Mirrors, collects, follows and comments allow creators to monetize their content directly to the user, without intermediaries, and in a permissionless way. Premium content, token-gated rewards, tipping, crowdfunding, subscription services, referral, and affiliate programs are just a handful of the countless types of integrations you can build with Lens.
Looking for some inspiration?
- We're still in the early innings of AI and ML and want to see more devs utilizing the latest innovations from OpenAI, Replicate, HuggingFace, LangChain, and Dust just to name a few. Imagine the possibilities when web3 social intersects with AI/ML 🤯
- You could use AI/ML to analyze a user’s feed over the course of a few days and condense it into a single view so they can visit less often and still be up to date with what’s the latest and greatest.
- Or create a social learning platform that uses AI to create personalized learning paths for users. It could assess users' knowledge levels, recommend relevant learning materials, and provide real-time
feedback and guidance.
- You could use Lens profiles specifically for your gaming identity. Imagine your in-game items and high scores attached to your Lens profile and you curate a Lens leaderboard for the community.
- Bust a move! Build an app that lets users participate in virtual dance-off challenges. Users can record and upload their dances, challenge friends or random users, and compete for the elusive best dancer on Lens title 💃🕺
- Build a community app for @galverse.lens on Lens that utilizes the Splits for Collects feature (https://docs.lens.xyz/docs/create-post-typed-data#multirecipientfeecollectmodule) and you'll help with the development of the anime, character design, story, and more.
- Imagine using the Collect module for more exclusive content such as event ticketing.
- How about building a governance forum specifically for Lens users? gm DAOs 🤔
- Calling all pet lovers out there. Create a social platform where users can showcase their pets' talents, tricks, and general awesomeness. Users can upload videos of their pets and participate in virtual talent shows, with categories like "Best Trick," and "Funniest Moment"
- Want to bridge that gap from web2 social to web3? Build a site that shows you the most followed people that have used a site (maybe the 🐦 app) or help users connect their web2 account and generate a ZKP for mapping.
- Or a Lens creator dashboard for tracking post analytics (engagement, collects, revenue, etc) and helping you find your 1000 true fans.
- Maybe you find yourself collecting every post from one of the 100k profiles already on Lens. Create a module to “subscribe” to someone and automatically collect everything the post within certain parameters.

- gm video creators of Lens! 🌿
Excited to announce the highly-requested feature - **video views** 👀 is now live on #Lenstube! This is a basic but important metric for creators to understand how their videos are performing.
For now, you can find the video view count on the video page itself. View count registers start views with deduping logic that prevents users from attempting to inflate view counts. In the future, we'll support additional viewership and engagement metrics so you can better understand popularity and performance.
What other metrics do you want to see for Lenstube?

- In ETH India, We are planning to build “No-code NFT loyalty program”, where brands can create a NFT loyalty program like Starbucks’ program with Polygon easily and integrate Lens too!
https://golden-box-522.notion.site/No-code-NFT-loyalty-program-0d8b4e90b6ba4d08b575525315b5bc4f
In Lens’ document, I saw “Loyalty” is there as Inspiration for Builders.
So far, to be simple, our plan is if they mention and post on Lens in the campaign period, they can receive some special NFT.
But does anyone have other interesting ideas to maximize Lens and give a new experience as loyalty program? cc @nader.lens @fabri.lens

- # 1.22.0 - 16th November 2022
Big release today, you can now gate your publications with access criteria. Remember your publications itself is an NFT so you can gate a publication so only people who collect can see it, same with your follow graph. Very excited in what you guys build with this.
Alongside this we have also exposed an endpoint to allow you to upload videos and audios, as we have seen uploading those via IPFS and serving them can cause them to buffer and be slow. Our API endpoint will upload it and transcode it serving that file to all people who call the API. Behind the scenes it will be pinning it to IPFS so on-chain state is still decentralized.
- feat: profile interests
- feat: gated publications powered by LIT - https://docs.lens.xyz/docs/gated
- feat: add 3 new providers to gasless
- feat: if no default profile picked select the first created one to expose more profiles
- feat: ability to upload audio and videos via the API and it be pinned for you on ipfs but the transcoded version will be served for better audio and video experience - https://docs.lens.xyz/docs/media
- First Lens selfie, live from the studio.
- Hello, world! We're excited to officially join the @lensprotocol community.
We look forward to more deeply engaging the #Web3 ecosystem through the #Lens Protocol, which is using the very innovation of Web3 itself to reimagine social media and give ownership back to users.
- Been working hard behind the scenes with our friends at @lensprotocol to award select artists with an exciting new fellowship! The awarded funds will go to emerging digital artists, hand-selected by Refraction curators (keep an eye out for the list of awardees, coming soon). Awardees will be able to use the funds to create brand new digital art, minted exclusively on Lens. Follow along here and meet the artists! 👀🌿
- HOW PUSSY RIOT RAISED $80,000 (160K MATIC) AND YOU CAN TOO! (PROOF OF PROTEST CASE STUDY)
HOW PUSSY RIOT RAISED $80,000 (160K MATIC) AND YOU CAN TOO! (PROOF OF PROTEST CASE STUDY)
In this case study, I explain the strategy and execution of how in July @pussyriotxyz.lens raised $80,000 through their @lensprotocol NFT collaboration using the collect module. The collect module allows creators to charge for native posts on Lens and this case study is a textbook example of how to do a launch. Huge shoutout to all the team members included in this project.
#lens #nft #pussyriot #launch #matic
Here are the notes I used in BlankSlate for your viewing:
How Pussy Riot raised 160k Matic / $80,000 and YOU can too! (Proof of Protest Case Study)
A case study by: Chris Comrie
- @chriscomrie.lens
- christafarious on twitter
Proof of Protest NFT collection was created by Pussy Riot in collaboration with Ksti Hu to protest SCOTUS ROE v. Wade
The Design
- Partnered with Lens
- All funds donated to charity
- Tiered and limited release allow for customer price discovery
$Money
- Open Edition 24 hrs:
- 8,058 Collects @ 2 Matic = 16,116 matic
- Limited edition:
- 5,000 Collects @ 20 Matic = 100,000 matic
- Premium High End
- 145 Collects @ 300 Matic = 43,500 matic
Total = 159,616 matic or aprox $80,000 USD in July
Noteworthy:
- Only 6k subscribers, 30k-ish lens accounts at the time
- Good copywriting
The bottle of feminism that you will get today will stay with you on blockchain and will become a part of your digital identity. Years from now, no one will be able to tell you that you did nothing...
- Quote from Stani (founder of Lens and Aave)
"By allowing activists like Pussy Riot to go direct-to-audiences with a technology that makes NFT minting as simple as posting or liking a post, Lens is empowering a new generation of humanitarians with a way to make an immediate global impact without fear of censorship.”
