- What's needed in order to create a Club?
- Fam I was about to mint a post that said 6.9 BONSAI to mint and it costed 7.2 when I clicked on it
Is this a bug?
- Presenting **03:00 AM**
A fusion of synths, drums, and latin sauce that pays tribute to deep house & EDM and my first Music NFT on @lens/lens using @lens/bonsai as a mint token.
To add some fun to the mint, all collectors will have the opportunity to participate in a raffle for a chance to **WIN 10,000 $BONSAI** from the earnings once the NFT is sold out (I have set up a wallet address in the splits to collect and safeguard the prize).
💽 100 Editions
🌳 1000 $Bonsai each
💰 10,000 $Bonsai for the raffle winner.
Good luck!**

- Would love to see what are the best examples you've seen on short stories publishing onchain!
I want to do much more of this on Orb and am looking for inspiration on how to best approach it
- Fam I think I'm kinda lost
I was super sure I had $pointless but can't find it on my wallet
What's the best way to get some?
- I'm going to start writing and sharing onchain short stories of Ancient Fiction & Futurism!
Would love to know:
What's the best format for sharing short stories you've seen onchain?
I'm mainly aiming to minting on Zora but would love to see any other ideas!
- Something feels weird about having people commenting advice with the option to mint
Specifically if they set a price
Would much rather tip directly! Or put a price myself
Is this coming soon in here? 👀
- Hey everyone!
What's the best AI image to image tool for using sketches?
I'm learning how to sketch and would love to use AI to make something cool on top of my still-clumsy drawings!
- Help me onboard an artist friend who I work with!
I almost put a price on $bonsai for this in order to help him pay for fees for his lens profile
But I decided it was best to just gift him his account so he can mint it himself!
- Gm fam!
I'm trying to convince a friend of mine who is working with me at @lens/metasuyo to come to Orb!
He's a music producer and he wants to keep a pseudonym while we work at Andean Lofi, a musical fiction inspired by ancient sounds from our ancestors
While he is kind of curious, I haven't been able to convince him entirely to come over to the dapp! I'm sure any encouragement from you all would help!!!
Here's the first song we've already released in case you're curious about that too!
https://open.spotify.com/track/4KBtPMklVmUBJqpUrKP1Vf?si=IG1OnKCnQUKc97Px0TfJQw
- What are your best resources or advice for mastering short stories?
I'm mostly interested in taking the path of using short stories to then write full novels!
- Gm
I'm buying my bonsai today! With fiat I got from the last airdrop
So it's the ultimate $BONSAI full circle
Because then I'll be making some content around how I learn about bonsais and take care of mine!
Got any recommendations of where to start? Or have you got any experience with bonsais?
- Follow, Mint & Mirror this post for a chance to win 4 guest list tickets to see me at Open Ground in Wuppertal, Germany. The best sound-system experienced in an inclusive, respectful club environment. 🇩🇪 I’ll be joined this Friday by SP:MC and Skeptical.

- I just wrote an article on Paragraph.xyz
What would be the best or most interesting way to share it here on Orb?
- **Just arrived to Karia!**
gmgm!
what's different in here from other dapps in the Lens ecosystem? what would you recommend me do for the first week?
- Can I do multi account here on Orb?
- Claimed my 'thank you' gift from @lens/bonsai to celebrate the fundraise! 🎉
Wait wtf I had already made 30$ yesterday
- 777 members in @club/bonsai
That's a great omen!
- How do mints work in here?
Are they onchain? Happening only on the internal wallet you get in the app?
- Would love to see something like $degen dynamics with Bonsai
- balance is only to share (similar to deposit only - but it doesn't take a cut like it does now, or makes an incentive to do so)
- the incentive to put $bonsai on your Orb balance can be the same that degen does: make it super clear that airdrop is based in you actually contributing to the ecosystem, either with tips/mints or any other thing the community can come up with
- make things more predictable. It's cool to have surprise airdrops and spontaneous stuff, but game theory requires rules to be more explicit or clear. Make users capable of understanding what is deserving of $bonsai instead of low quality memes or posts begging for tips
Collect this post as a commitment to keep your comments and posts high quality only
I'll check back on the next airdrop
If you have kept your word, I'll airdrop you some of the $bonsai I get!
- Gm Bonsai Club!
I believe it's fit that everyone who is willing to try should get a bonsai of its own
I've always wanted one and already reach out to a bonsai store in Peru!
Help me get mine by minting this post
Hope you get yours too!
- What's the ethos of $Pointless?
What can I read to learn more?
- **6 cases for selling tickets as NFTs**
I originally shared the following thoughts around the time of the Taylor Swift / Ticketmaster debacle in 2022. Over the last few days, the conversation seems to have resurfaced, with @lens/onopen dropping their Onchain Tickets Manifesto (pictured, with nearly 15k mints at time of writing):
https://zora.co/collect/base:0xeba4551052568406f8c490320b94b6478b81930e/1
At the same time, the wider crypto bull market has been attracting renewed criticism/cynicism from the anti-NFT crowd. Some of this has focused on ticketing, so I thought I'd revisit this subject.
When I discussed this topic back in 2022, I predicted that selling tickets as NFTs would be normalised within 5 years. The fact is, most "tickets" nowadays are already digital. (When was the last time you bought a paper ticket to a show?) Putting them onchain has numerous advantages.
**Here are 6 reasons why NFTickets make sense:**
1) Provably limited supply.
2) Provable authenticity.
3) Allow-lists reduce risk of bots buying up supply during pre-sale (as happened with Swift).
4) Removing middlemen like Ticketmaster (who've been known to add on 75% to prices in platform fees) could mean more affordable tickets without artist losing revenue.
5) You can keep NFTs in your wallet forever as mementos (I wish I still had tickets from life-changing shows I went to as a teen).
6) Ticket NFTs can retrospectively be given extra utilities (e.g. discount on next show, free merch, access to token-gated experiences etc), becoming part of a potentially life-long connection between artist and fan.
The combination of 1) and 2) effectively eliminates ticket fraud: if it's not from the official collection, it's a scam.
Of course, NFTs can still be sold on the secondary market way above their original price, but:
a) if you've done enough to get on the allow-list, you probably want to go to the show; and
b) the artist can actually benefit from these sales by collecting secondary royalties (where enforced).
I've focused here on tickets to in-person events, but of course online events (like livestreamed shows or performances in the metaverse) represent a burgeoning sector where NFTs make even more sense as entry passes. More on that side of things soon.

- Collectively Curated Onchain Radio w/Nick Hollins | S5 E7
On this episode of Rehash, we speak with fellow podcaster, Nick Hollins, about the creator economy, web3 communities, and building a collectively curated onchain radio at UFO. Nick is the creator of UFO and co-founder of Apollo, the creative lab that produces UFO.
The creator economy has grown in leaps and bounds since the early 2000s with the introduction of blogging, to Youtube’s emergence, to social media and influencer marketing. The more recent implementation of blockchain technology, cryptography, and what we now see as the overarching web3 space to the creator economy has introduced a plethora of new funding and ownership tools we never saw before.
Creators are now able to directly own and monetize their works, tokenize their intellectual property rights, share revenue with co-creators and collaborators transparently, automate payments, engage with their fans more meaningfully, and much more.
Our guest, Nick, comes from a traditional community radio background in Australia and now uses a lot of his learnings from that world to build UFO, which is aspiring to be an onchain radio and club for creators and consumers of media.
We talk about all of this and more and wrap up with an unexpectedly eerie explain your tweet segment at the end that triggers Diana’s deepest fears.

- 🇫🇷 8 Big EthCC 2023 Announcements 🇫🇷
Missed the Ethereum community’s takeover of Paris this week?
No worries, here’s a recap of the biggest advances unveiled at this year’s event 👇
1) Lens protocol V2 🍃
The Lens team unveiled their V2 system & its new functionalities
These include “Open Actions,” which enable any external smart contract actions on any Lens publication. Also new is Profiles V2, which uses ERC-6551 so Lens profiles can own other NFTs
2) UniswapX 🦄
Uniswap Labs unveiled UniswapX -- a new trading protocol
The system intros a mechanism called “Dutch orders,” where a trade order’s price gradually declines until filled
It offers gas-free transactions, no-cost failed txs, and protection against MEV to boot
3) Chainlink CCIP 🔗
Chainlink Labs had big news this week too, having launched its anticipated Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol on a handful of popular DeFi chains
The big idea? Unlock new cross-chain economies
4) Starknet Appchains 🔶
Build your own app-specific chains, Starknet style!
The L2’s team just announced the Starknet Stack will support deploying customizable appchains
5) Gnosis Pay 💳
Self-custodying crypto onchain, but spending it with a Visa card when you need to?
That’s the Gnosis Pay way!
GnosisDAO just revealed this new decentralized payment network and an associated Visa-powered Gnosis Card
6) & 7) Mantle + Linea alpha 🔲
Mantle Network launched its mainnet alpha, while Consensys fully opened its Linea mainnet alpha at EthCC
Mantle is very modular, while Linea is a zkEVM
Both are pointing to bold scaling frontiers ahead for Ethereum!
8) EVM extends 📈
In EVM news from EthCC, Tezos intro'd Etherlink (an EVM-compatible rollup with Tezos as the L1) + Solana Foundation welcomed Solang, a compiler that allows writing Solidity smart contracts on Solana
If you've enjoyed this recap, give us a follow!

- I just donated to clr.fund 's latest round
My donation was 10$. I paid 1.7$ in gas fees in Arbitrium (not considering what I would have needed to pay in order to bridge or move funds to my wallet in the first place)
Plus, there's little context in what each project actually does, apart from what you would have to find in links to their socials (and the mandatory bio)
And just a few minutes later, I stumbled upon @definn.lens post on quadraticlenster.xyz
The potential of using Allo Protocol (same behind Gitcoin, but without the super excessive fees that the last Round there had) for a socialized donation experience just... it blows my mind
Finally, something we in the Global South can aspire to use!
Thanks for the gigabrains of @owocki.lens and the team behind Quadratic Lenster!

- A few days ago a fren told me about @koris.lens
Not only they are the first ones materializing the concept of DACs (decentralized autonomous companies) that @metisdaofoundation.lens has been pushing, they also have a very interesting proposition made possible by web3
Brands can create campaigns for creators to discover and contribute to, making it super easy for connections and deals to emerge
The concept is simple, but it remains to be seen how brands embrace this use case!
It's also an opportunity for headless brands to have yet another way to decentralise how multiple creators can contribute to craft their voice 👀
