New music on Lens. 💜 I find this space super cool to showcase unfinished tracks and maybe get someone else onboard to help and finish with fresh ideas, vocals, words or simply by reviewing it. I've entitled it as "Kindness" and it's made to make you smile, get high on happiness and use that joy to take good care of you and the others. I hope you like it.
Collect the first ever Ziggy Ziggy snippet for free 💫 This blissed-out track comes from Beachcrimes - a dance duo and former songwriters for Chainsmokers and Halsey. BONUS: We'll randomly select one collector to airdrop a full version of the track when it drops on Sound.xyz. Follow us for more snippets soon!

Podcast NFTs are back with a Lens Protocol exclusive ft. Christina Beltramini. This drop celebrates S7E15 with @christina - an eye-opening conversation covering her time growing web2 social at TikTok to now growing web3 social at Lens. From championing the curator to breaking down the new era of user-generated content, our session dives into a ton. The inspiration behind this drop stems from the realization that a creator's community of collectors will surpass its community of followers. Lens currently embodies this best and has enabled a new experiment between the intersection of content distribution and collection. I've been active on here for months now and consistently get more engagement across web3 social, though I have yet to experiment with its full potential. That changes tomorrow. Drop details: When: Thursday (tomorrow), 12 PM PST Where: On Lens (URL texted Thursday) Format: 24 hr open edition Collect: 1 $WMATIC (You **do not** need a Lens profile to collect). Since I'm dropping this native on Lens, I will not be using my website. Rather, I'll be sending a brief text + URL to collect via Laylo. 🔗 RSVP to get notified when we're live: https://laylo.com/levy/aG9OY
Create together, earn together 🌿 Creators can now split revenue earned from Collects. Share earnings with as many as 5 creators. With custom percentage splits. Collects is among the most popular features on Lens. We recently added the option to set limited quantities and/or time limits to collectible posts. We’re excited to offer new ways for collectors to support creators, and for creators to monetize with Collects. Learn how to implement the Multi recipient Fee Collect Module in our dev docs: https://docs.lens.xyz/docs/create-post-typed-data#multirecipientfeecollectmodule Start using Splits today on @buttrfly.lens , @lenster.lens & @lenstube.lens - with more soon to come!
“I would love to see entrepreneurs building small use cases and iterating. Many ideas will fail but the point is to build fast, keep iterating and learning. Lens makes it easier and less risky to experiment.” @stani.lens at #ETHDenver
Christina Beltramini: How Web3 Enables A New Era Of User-Generated Content I'm so excited to reveal my first Podcast NFT drop, exclusive to the Lens ecosystem. **Format** 24 hr open edition, 1 $WMATIC, 10% referral fee. **About the episode** Mint Season 7 Episode 15 welcomes Christina Beltramini, Head of Growth and Chief Scheming Officer at Lens Protocol, to discuss the ever-growing world of web3 social. Throughout our discussion, we cover topics such as online identity, her article highlighting the next era of user-generated content, and Lens Protocol’s plan to empower a wider class of creators and curators. Christina also shares her aspirations for building a better internet, an overview of Lens’ developer ecosystem, and the lessons learned while working at TikTok that she’s applying while building the Lens ecosystem. Furthermore, we dive into the importance of content remixing, the latest developments in the Lens ecosystem, and how creators can monetize their work using Lens. I hope you enjoy our conversation.

Hey!, my name is Benjamin Gutiérrez, one of the founders of Wav3s 🤝 and I'm here to tell you the story of how I went from a regular job to living my dream of working full-time on Wav3s. At the end of 2021, together with @cristianvaldivia.lens , another Wav3s founder, we decided to leave our start-up at the peak of success. We were working like crazy without much remuneration, but it was impossible to scale, since we were working with hardware. We knew we wanted to take the plunge and dive into the world of Web 3, since our team meetings always ended up with us discussing the exciting world of blockchain. We had a couple of ideas, but nothing concrete - so each one of us went our own way. I spent the next year automating processes in several companies, while still studying up to launch myself into entrepreneurship in Web3. The second semester of 2022 changed everything. With Cristian, we attended our first crypto event in Argentina - and it just so happened that it was on my birthday! It was one of the best birthdays I've ever had, getting to know the crypto community and projects like Poap , which helped us a lot to connect with more people. But the highlight of the week was when Stani talked about Lens protocol - it blew my head off! 🤯 When I arrived back in Chile, I was disappointed to find that there was not the same level of community and activity. I apply to become a Polygon Guild Mage, to create the Polygon community in Chile. Hundreds of people applied, and luckily I was chosen - I think my travels to Argentina helped. Thanks to being a Polygon Guild Mage, I was given a scholarship to Devcon. We participated in the Hackathon and I still think we should have won a prize, because our product was really good - and the product work perfectly. We created a humanity verification system with Poap, so if you shared POAPs with another person, you could validate them as human - a simple, but useful idea to fight bots. 🤖 Although our project, Verify me or Soureal, didn't work out, I still have a lot of affection for it. We had the chance to meet the entire Lens team, including Stani, and they invited us to rAave and more. 🤗 When we returned to Chile, we met @bvdaniel.lens , the other Wav3s founder, and tested a couple of ideas within the Lens ecosystem. When we made it public on Lens, nobody tested it or even liked it. We felt completely unnoticed, so we decided to create Wav3s, so that everyone could spread their publications through Lens - and the growth it has had, and all the support we've received, still amazes. The conclusion of this story is that one decision can open or close a world of opportunities - so don't be afraid to take a risk, because you may find something even better! 🤩

**The Rise Of UGC 2.0: User Generated Collects** Everyone has seen the power of User-Generated Content 'UGC' in the age of social media. Here's why UGC 2.0 or 'User-Generated Collects' will be the next evolution of this format unlocked by the blockchain. I have been posting snippets here on Lenster the last few weeks about these themes as I framed out my article. Here is the final piece: **https://mirror.xyz/chrissyb.eth/r0SyE9QdvQribykjXvdMqYElGQT8ZFnthV_rUlyNqNk** #LMCC Inspired by the following people: @ladidaix, @ryanfox, @bellosights (@levychain), @stani and @azeem. **Cliff notes:** In today's one-directional social media interactions, "likes'' are abundant & meaningless when it comes to generating authentic connections or content discovery. Instead of simply liking something, we would rather participate. UGC 2.0 is not just a new format, it will revolutionize social media by unlocking far-reaching effects on content consumption than its predecessor. Collectable social content will enrich our experiences and create new forms of digital engagement between creators and users alike. By giving creators and users ownership & control of their content without the impediments of gatekeepers they can leverage it into new opportunities across fandom, community connectivity, curation, data and monetization. Creators aren’t defined by one platform or medium anymore. The creators, curators and communities of tomorrow will be empowered by data transparency aggregated across the entire social ecosystem without the gatekeepers and centralized databases of today. A more sustainable environment for the long tail and micro-creator to flourish as a result. Indexing less on numbers such as reach and likes, instead providing the tools to focus on quality and depth of relationship and content. It will also mark the future of brand creation. Changing how brands interact with consumers as active participants in their own social consumption. This is what @lensprotocol strives for. I hope this piece helps scratch the surface and inspires creators, users and builders to explore the possibilities.
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?
