- If you've seen @nader.lens or @yoginth.lens talking about algorithm choice recently you probably noticed they feature algorithms by @karma3labs.lens whose posts on mirror I just finished reading: https://mirror.xyz/0x6BE454113A58861A09Fc2A57940a344357B3859a
"The power of our infrastructure is eventually able to power personalization of NFT discovery for everyone based on their preferences, tastes, interests, and trusts of their respective social circles."
What they're building sounds really solid and solves for things I've recently brought up. I've seen some of their feeds already on @collectz.lens and will be really interested to see how devs here build when these problems of reputation and decisions around recommendations are handled by 3rd parties or communities.
It really struck me, in a tangible way now, that we should not just be promoting the established user base of Lens as a feature or reason to build here but also that devs have the ability to make good recommendations and decisions thanks to open algorithms. It's no longer theoretical, we can start pointing to @karma3labs.lens as a first example and hopefully encourage more.
Devs can focus on building their app without having to solve for:
• USERS
• REPUTATION
• ALGORITHMS
What next?

We have collected this week's lush and positive posts for you! 💚
Use the hashtag #summeroflens and be one of the frens greening the week ahead!
Summer has arrived in @lensprotocol, why are you still waiting to touch the grass? 🫳🏻

- 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.

- Momoka, the new infrastructure powering @lensprotocol, just hit 500,000 transactions at a total cost of ~ $173
With these updates our infrastructure is now ~250x less expensive while being ~165x more scalable than in the past. 🤯
Momoka Stats
💰 Cost of 100,000 transactions:
Old infrastructure ~ $10,000.00
Momoka ~$40.00
Difference ~250,000% less expensive ⚡️
📈 Scalability of 100,000 transactions
Old infrastructure (~30 TPS) 55 minutes
Momoka (~50,000 TPS) 2 seconds
Difference ~ 165,000% more scalable ⚡️
Here’s how it works 🌫️
Blockchains today cannot scale to social TPS.
Traditional databases scale to up to millions of operations per second while most blockchains max out at a few hundred.
This is mainly because blockchain storage is an expensive bottleneck in terms of both cost and scalability.
Blockchain storage is more than just storage - it also enables composability, allowing your state to also be executed with other smart contracts and programs.
But with most social use cases, especially non-financial, that power and composability is not needed, so why would we continue to use it in this way?
For decentralized social applications, two of the main characteristics needed are permanent and immutable storage tied to a user’s identity.
What if those characteristics could be derived from another infrastructure layer, but at a much lower cost and with more scalability?
In the past, all Lens transactions were processed on the EVM via Polygon network.
What is the EVM at its root? It is a big state machine, holding the entire history of state changes of what has happened in what are known as archive nodes.
The expensive part of using EVM networks is performing these state updates.
BUT! The EVM only forces cost when you want to change the state in the next block.
The EVM does **not** charge anything to simulate if something could of happened on a certain block.
This means that you can leverage this to check that a transaction has been signed by the correct access control and would of passed for free *without any gas needed*.
When you do an EVM contract call, you are signing the transaction with your private key. The EVM verifies this and injects key helpers like msg.sender which is your public key to allow contracts to know it was you who did that.
Since transactions can be run for free to prove something has the correct access control conditions to run it, what if we swapped the storage updates to a place that can handle high TPS, cheap, immutable, one time payments and will be guaranteed for at least 100 years?
Momoka is an optimistic hybrid layer 3 solution from Lens Protocol that uses data availability storage on Arweave/Bundlr along with transaction proofs on Polygon to enable highly scalable and low-cost social graph data storage and verification. It allows proving social graph transactions would be valid on-chain without actually submitting them, enabling greater scalability while maintaining verifiability and user ownership.
Arweave is a decentralized blockchain-like infrastructure protocol, built specifically for storing data forever for a one off cost, and was launched over 6 years ago.
Bundlr Network is an Arweave scaling solution built to handle 50,000+ TPS. It functions similarly to a rollup in that it batches multiple transactions together and posts them to the underlying network.
An important characteristic of Bundlr is that it supports EVM addresses, allowing you to build EVM tech state on Arweave ⚡️. They also allow you to pay fees in any EVM native token you wish!
To enable this new functionality on Lens, Momoka introduces two new pieces of architecture - the Submitter and the Verifier.
Submitters are responsible for validating and constructing the metadata and submitting it to Arweave, providing proofs that anyone can contest.
The Verifier software listens for publications sent from whitelisted submitter addresses and verifies their validity.
Anyone can run a verifier using open-source software with a few commands.
https://github.com/lens-protocol/momoka
Momoka is not limited to blocks and max limits as the restriction has been removed due to storage on Bundlr/Arweave.
Momoka gets timestamp proofs from Bundlr to be able to keep chain and off-chain actions in ordering and also to have a third party timestamp to avoid trust assumptions on Momoka.
With Momoka, users still own their content as it’s not possible to action a Momoka transaction if you do not pass the access control on-chain.
Momoka is fully trustless – anyone can check proofs with their own Polygon archive node!
We believe Momoka is core to the future of web3 social, enabling applications to scale to tens of thousands of operations per second while still enabling the differentiating features that make web3 social unique and special.

This is my #firstpost on @lensprotocol!
As an artist, I'm constantly inspired by the beauty of nature. When nature itself becomes an artist, it creates breathtaking wonders like these cloud formations.
I couldn't resist capturing this masterpiece through my lens.
I hope these photos can also inspire you! 💛☁️
Thanks @nftsushi.lens for inviting me to lens! 🫶
- Good Morning All 😇😇It's Friday again😍
I am also posting one of my pics for #OPENLENS ,you know,for the culture😍.We all form a nice community and I love it ❤️
- NFTs as app data:
Rainbow Wallet has been a great example over the past year+ of an app which uses NFTs to unlock app data. Collectors of their NFTs have enjoyed access to new icons, such as an 8-bit rainbow. Just this week they’ve added a new surprise: a loading sound. Collectors of the Poolboy NFT get not only a new icon but also a video game-like loading sound.
While these are trivial bonuses that don’t do much (other than delight) it’s only limited in scope by the imagination of the developers. Anyone can do what they’re doing and apply it to anything.
Any Collect here on Lens could be used at a later date as completely new app data. Just something to think about 🧐
- Newsletter's out, here's the TLDR:
- It's Onchain Summer
- Base Integrations
- Bonfire Pro free 14-day Trials
- NFTs & Music for Reforestation
