How Lens is going?
What a weekend. I got a mentorship from EthernautDAO and preparing before we start on Monday. Mentorship is focused on security in smart contracts. My mentor (@blockdeveth.lens) works at the Ethereum foundation and is an auditor at yAudit. Yesterday I solved 11 Ethernaut challenges (basically you need to hack smart contracts) to catch up with 2 other mentees and today I was learning about super low-level stuff and how Ethereum executes smart contracts (bytecode, opcodes, calldata, etc). And we even didn't start yet. 🤯 I'm excited as hell.
Solved my second Curta Solidity puzzle. 🎉 Again in phase 2, but without looking at the other solutions (I needed some help with the previous one). Here is what it looked like: https://www.curta.wtf/puzzle/4
ChatGPT-4 is powerful, but adding plugins is another level: https://andrewmayneblog.wordpress.com/2023/03/23/chatgpt-code-interpreter-magic/
It's time to go deep into Ethereum's inner workings. I'm already learning Solidity, but I'm thirsty for more. 🥵 Starting with the beige paper: https://github.com/chronaeon/beigepaper/blob/master/beigepaper.pdf + ChatGPT4 for more detailed explanations.
yup

I have always been fascinated by the question of what makes certain content truly valuable and shareable, and I have spent a lot of time thinking about what motivates people to collect and how to create content that speaks to them on a deeper level. That's why I'm excited to introduce Mint Season 7 to the world. The next 20 episodes will span three months and focus on every aspect of "Creating Content Worth Collecting," a tagline that I hope will inspire more creators to shift their focus from algorithmic virality to creating content of collectible quality. We’ll highlight various forms of tokenized media like music NFTs, podcast NFTs, writing NFTs, film NFTs, video NFTs, and crypto art, and answer questions like: 1. What does it take to create content worth collecting? 2. What are the links between viral distribution and onchain monetization via collection? 3. How can content creators use tokenized media and NFTs to increase value and strengthen relationships with their audience? 4. How will DeFi and tokenized media intersect and develop in the future? 5. What are the main challenges for crypto-native content creators and tokenized media projects and 6. how will they be addressed? 7. How will decentralization change content creation and consumption in the web3 world? 8. Will traditional media adapt to or be replaced by decentralized organizations in the web3 landscape? 9. What challenges and opportunities will the web3 media industry face as it grows and how can they be addressed? 10. How will the user experience of web3 media differ from traditional web media and how will this affect content consumption? I hope that by exploring this topic in-depth, we can help more creators understand what makes content valuable to collect and how to create content worth collecting that resonates with their audience. This season, listeners will hear from a variety of high-profile creators, savvy collectors, and ambitious founders on their strategies for producing collectible content. We’ll hear from: • Farokh -- Founder of Rug Radio. • Robin Schmidt -- Founder of BasedAF. • Zack Guzman -- Host of Coinage Media. • Alice Ma -- Co-Founder of Mad Realties. • Jacob Horne -- Co-Founder of Zora Protocol. • Chase Chapman -- Host of the OthersidePod. • Diana Chen -- Host of Rehash Podcast. • Aidan Musnitzky -- Founder of Spinamp. • Christina Beltramini -- Head of Growth at The Aave Companies (Lens Protocol). • 0xLucas -- Head of Web3 at Bankless. • Gami -- Founder of Gnars DAO. • Peter Saputo -- Music NFT Artist. • Roberto Nickson -- Founder of Metav3rse. • Pplpleasr -- Legendary, crypto-native digital artist. • TK the Legend -- Music NFT Artist. • BlockchainBrett -- Partner at Palm Tree Club. • John Crain -- Founder of SuperRare. • Sam Sends -- Co-Founder of Glass Protocol. • RŌHKI -- Web3-native music collective. • Colin Armstrong -- Founder of Paragraph I'm showcasing Lens Protocol and Bello.lol this season, who's collected the podcast’s soulbound NFTs, granting them promotional utility throughout the season. I also thank Cointelegraph and CryptoSlate, this season's media partners. The season is available to enjoy across all video and audio streaming platforms and new social apps built on Lens Protocol, such as Lenstube and Lensterxyz. I'm excited to focus more of my efforts on this mindset shift. One of the reasons I launch new seasons with accompanying themes is to get answers to my personal questions and curate the right people to provide insight on the topic. That’s how I organized Mint Season 1 and how I will continue to lead future seasons to come. **Keep up with the podcast season by subscribing to my newsletter and getting notified when new episodes are available** ➡️ https://adamlevy.io/mint-season-7. ------ **Additional Resources** Collect Season 7's free subscriber NFT on Mirror: https://levy.mirror.xyz/M2wQQhvkt8ayvdKFiN1wbx_ANfJ2ry0pbFsHGcpVkKY
A lot has happened over the past few months in the @LensProtocol ecosystem. In this thread I want to highlight some of the projects, updates, and products we or the community has shipped over the past year and also shed some light on what's coming next. 🌿❤️‍🔥⚡️ For anyone unfamiliar with @LensProtocol - Lens is a protocol, API, and suite of tools that enables developers to easily and quickly build social media applications, or integrate social features like follows, likes, publications, profiles, and encrypted chat. Since the official launch on Polygon on May 18: https://twitter.com/LensProtocol/status/1526944792013316097 ... there have been around 100 apps that I would consider serious that are being built or that have launched on Lens. https://www.lens.xyz/apps There are also many apps integrating Lens social features into existing apps. This use case will be a popular and growing one this year as it is a low lift and requires minimal work, but with a lot of upside. Want to parse social posts in your wallet? Lens Want to add a comments section to your blog? Lens Already have posts/comments but want to add Collects, linked re-posts, and linked likes to your posts? Lens Want to add a discussion forum to your site that's token-gated for your DAO? Lens Want to leverage a user base of x hundreds of thousands (or in the future, x millions) of users without having to bootstrap a network from scratch? Lens! Like managed services and cloud computing has abstracted away the need to build abd maintain complex back end infrastructure from scratch, Lens abstracts away to the need for developers to build and maintain the infrastructure necessary to implement social features themselves. Whether or not Lens is built on traditional or decentralized technologies should not matter to the average user or developer. At the end of the day, many of the features provided by Lens are only made possibly by blockchains and decentralized protocols like Arweave and IPFS, but they should not be at the forefront of the discussion. Instead, the applications should speak for themselves: the UX and value proposition should be compelling enough on their own for the average internet user or developer to want to use or build on Lens, regardless of the underlying tech stack. Part of providing a compelling UX is abstracting away the need to know about or understand blockchains and wallets at all. As of now, this is not part of the average Lens front-end, but is something we'll be considering this year as we move toward scaling Lens to >50,000 TPS and enabling permissionless access to the protocol (both of which are on our somewhat near-term roadmap). For developers, we plan to double down on providing the best possible DX we can offer for developers. Last year we made consistent updates and improvements to our docs and API and launched two new SDKS: Lens React SDK https://twitter.com/dabit3/status/1606383208089718794 and React Native Lens UI Kit https://twitter.com/dabit3/status/1600188853297377280 We have a lot of plans for these two libraries, and will also be considering shipping additional products to facilitate and improve the ease of development for devs building on or integrating Lens. The engineering team led by @wagmi continues to ship new updates to the Lens API at a rapid pace. You can keep up with the updates by following LensAPI on Lens: @lensapi A small handful of highlights I will call out that were shipped last year: - gated publications powered by @LitProtocol - dispatcher enabling signless transactions - optimistic UI updates - feed highlights - degrees of separation - profile interests + many many others In November, Lens adopted @xmtplabs to provide secure, private, and encrypted profile-to-profile DMs for the entire Lens ecosystem. This was huge as it was one of the most requested features from Lens users and the reception has been incredible. https://twitter.com/xmtp_/status/1588200030820704257 The Lens grants program has deployed funds to over 50 teams building on Lens. We plan to continue working closely with, and providing support for, certain developers and teams who are building interesting or valuable applications on Lens through our grants program and / or providing engineering support through private channels. We will be attending, mentoring, participating, and sponsoring strategic events in 2023, including branching out into more traditional "web2" events. We plan to attend all major @ETHGlobal events, DevCon, & a few other web3 / blockchain events. We also plan to create small to medium-sized meetup-type events this year in cities around the world starting with Sao Paulo in a couple of weeks. Here, people can meet others in their community who are using or building on Lens, and also get allow-listed for a profile until permissionless access is enabled for everyone. There is a lot of hype around web3 social right now: https://twitter.com/ljin18/status/1610688970173878272 I agree that 2023 will be a huge year for web3 social and for Lens. We are focused, motivated, and excited to continue building off of the momentum created last year to make 2023 a breakout year for Lens. There is a lot more happening outside of DevRel, with dedicated teams working with creators (@christina & @bradorbradley) and also other areas of focus like integrations and partnerships. I have not done a good job highlighting everything else happening in the ecosystem and with the other teams. If you do want to keep up, follow Lens team members on Lens and on Twitter, starting with: @christina @bradorbradley @fabri @yoginth @stani @paris @donosonaumczuk @wagmi @davidev @sasicodes @pealco That wraps up this overview. I'm beyond excited and motivated about what we will be working on this year and invite you enjoy the ride with us!

GM Lenster frens! My name is Bradley - I am on the Growth team at Lens, and an amateur photographer - which is a sentence I never imagined I would write if you asked me even a year ago. My journey to web3 began with collecting my first NFT - CryptoVenetian#52 - at Bright Moments Gallery in Venice, CA, just steps away from where this photo was taken. When I look at CV#52, I think back to the first steps of my web3 journey. I was living not far from Bright Moments, engrossed in my work at TikTok creating TikTok's inaugural NFT drop. I could never imagine all that has happened in the year since then. I now work at the Aave Companies, have attended conferences like NFT.NYC, Eth Amsterdam, and others. I have met hundreds of other members of various web3 communities, many of whom I am proud to call my friends. I am grateful and excited to have merged my interests with my career. Which brings me to why I am posting this picture I took as a NFT on Lenster. For the last 12 months I have flirted with the idea of minting my own NFTs based on my favorite photos I've taken, but the time and setting never felt quite right. It seems fitting to mint my first NFT as a collect post on Lenster - a way to honor where my web3 journey began on one of my favorite Lens applications. In honor of CV#52 I am charging 5.2 MATIC for each of the 52 copies I am selling, along with a 52% referral fee for anyone who mirrors this post and leads to a successful claim. Cheers, Bradley

Is there a plugin for Alfred (mac app) that will search in the titles of the open tabs? For bookmarks it works perfectly.
Web3 is here to stay. So many trad companies want to get in. We are near the inflexion point.
