2024 and Lens to me is about finding the unfamiliar again and truly building generational tech and products. Copying what’s come before is the safer and easier choice but doesn’t create the same groundbreaking impact.
I reflect a lot on TikTok, when I joined I knew ByteDance had built something innovative in Asia, but it’s future in the west in wasn’t so clear. My friends thought I was crazy leaving my current situation and didn’t understand what it could become. To everyone now it’s obvious, but back then it wasn’t and disregarded by many before it’s hockey stick growth and inflection point.
Being able to now say I was part of a generational global product now is something I’m very proud of. I’ll never forget being allocated the same desk in NYC WeWork with 12 desks as Zhang Yiming on my first day who was in town and graciously told me to keep it. Or early days having the opportunity to be in meetings with Alex Zhu whose philosophy about social apps as countries and co creation as a social fabric still resonates today and blue print for social builders. Even I didn’t realize it at the time how lucky I was, but I hold these moments today.
It’s why in jumped into web3 finally after many years of being on the surface personally. I had conviction after my bet on ByteDance played out and excited to embark on another.
Next goal is being able to say I was part of infrastructure backbone making possible the next wave of innovative consumer products.
While the power of @lens/lensprotocol may be invisible to most, if there is one thing I’ve learned it’s that game changing tech more than often comes from what not everyone sees.
It’s never what’s familiar and expected to all. That’s why it’s disruptive.
2024 let’s rock.

- SCROLL TESTNET AIRDROP STRATEGY 📜⚡️
Scroll_ZKP is a zkEVM with a 1.8 billion valuation and no token yet.
How to use Scroll Testnet, deposit in Scroll's AAVE, swap in Scroll's Uniswap v3. No funds are required.
20-minute strategy 🧵👇
1/9
What is Scroll_ZKP?
Scroll is a zkEVM.
A Zero-knowledge Rollup on Ethereum, like Starknet and zkSync.
2/9
Scroll has already reached around $80,000,000 in funding.
Funded by several investors - Qiming Venture Partners and Polychain being the most recent.
🔗 crunchbase (dot) com/funding_round/scroll-tech-series-a--6cdb41f2
1.8 billion valuation
3/9
Will there be a token? An airdrop?
No airdrop was confirmed so far. However, we can test the chain, following this strategy.
• Vitalik, Barry Whitehat, Chih-Cheng Liang and Konstantopoulos made reviews of Scroll
• The team consists of 20 people (they are hiring)
4/9
How to interact with Scroll?
We will be engaging with Scroll Alpha Testnet, and also trying AAVE Scroll Testnet, which deployed recently
👇
5/9
STEP 1: Go to 🔗 scroll.io/alpha
STEP 2: Add Ethereum Goerli Testnet & Scroll Alpha Testnet to your MetaMask
STEP 3: Get Test Goerli ETH on faucetlink.to/goerli or faucet.paradigm.xyz
6/9
STEP 4: Bridge from Ethereum Goerli Tesnet to Scroll Testnet using their Hop fork scroll.io/alpha/bridge
STEP 5: Check your bridge transaction on their explorer: blockscout.scroll.io
7/9
STEP 6: Let's try Aave's new Scroll Testnet. Go to app.aave.com and enable "Testnet mode"
STEP 7: Switch to Scroll Alpha
STEP 8: Go to Aave's Faucet to claim test tokens: app.aave.com/faucet
STEP 9: Deposit tokens to Aave ⚡️
8/9
STEP 10: Make swaps in Scroll's Uniswap v3: uniswap-v3.scroll.io/#/swap
STEP 11: Join the Scroll Guild and claim some roles: guild.xyz/scrollzkp
STEP 12: Visit their applications page for additional Dapps to use: scroll.io/alpha/ecosystem
9/9
With Optimism and Arbitrum, it was a good idea to be an early user and use the chains organically.
This testnet is not incentivized at all, and transaction history could potentially be wiped
$SCROLL, though, will eventually come in my opinion. It's best to try all chains!
- PREPARING FOR $STRK 🐺
Time sensitive post, 8 hours left ⏰
@argentHQ wallet is doing a "Xplorer Campaign" - something similar to the Arbitrum Odyssey that got the $ARB airdrop to many users.
There are 8 NFTs to collect. Deadline for the 1st is today
Airdrop Strategy 🪂:
1/xx
Similar to Arbitrum Odyssey, Argent is:
• Launching one campaign per week
• Rewarding 1 NFT per week after each campaign
• Helping users get to know the Starknet ecosystem
• Helping protocols get discovered
2/9
$STRK: remember that the token has already been confirmed and deployed. Not currently trading:
0xca14007eff0db1f8135f4c25b34de49ab0d42766
There is no information about a retroactive airdrop for Starknet users yet, but there is 8.1% of "Unallocated" supply.
3/9
$STRK: In the other hand, StarkEX users (dYdX, Immutable, etc) are indeed getting an airdrop.
Stay tuned for more news on this front - we will probably get some updates when the token becomes tradable.
4/9
This campaign is a good way to generate organic activity on-chain and to get to know Starknet protocols.
Argent will be giving 8 NFTs for 8 weeks, 1 per week.
First week was until May 9. However, since the network was slow, they extended the deadline to today 23:59 🚨
5/9
WEEK 1
To get the first NFT:
1. Install Argent X extension: 🔗 chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/argent-x/dlcobpjiigpikoobohmabehhmhfoodbb
2. Bridge ETH to Starknet: 🔗 starkgate.starknet.io (or use Orbiter)
3. Make (1) transaction on Starknet Mainnet using Argent X (make a swap @10KSwap, use @Orbiter_Finance, etc)
6/9
WEEK 1
Argent extended the deadline so users can get the first NFT if they interact today.
There's still time - deadline is Thursday 11 May 23:59 UTC.
https://twitter.com/argenthq/status/1656597368316231681
7/9
WEEK 2
Starting yesterday, there is time until May 16 23:59 UTC to also complete week 2.
To get the second NFT:
1. Play the game in: 🔗 starkfighter.xyz
2. Get a .stark domain for free here: 🔗 xplorer.starknet.id
3. Submit your score (tweet required)
8/9
NFTs cannot be minted yet.
They will share a link for users to mint the NFT after the snapshots are taken, so stay tuned.
Once there's news about the mint page, or week 3 tasks, I will update.
These tasks are not capital-intensive, it's a great opportunity to interact.
9/9
🏛️ You can delegate your future $STRK tokens to olimpio.eth in advance: 🔗 https://delegate.starknet.io/profile/olimpio.eth#statement
(ETH Mainnet txn required)
I was chosen to be one of the recipients of the Starknet Foundation's voting power ⚡️

- Allow us to reintroduce ourselves...meet the native hyperscaling solution for Lens, Momoka! Momoka is an Optimistic L3 scaling solution, that will process transactions at hyperscale, and is designed to support the next generation of web3 social users.
Data availability layers are utilized to prevent storing information on-chain. While content on Lens may include an on-chain transaction, the content data is linked to a data availability location, like Momoka.
Momoka serves as a scaling solution that processes Polygon transactions off-chain, achieving hyperscale and reducing costs. Unlike L2 solutions, Momoka doesn't compress transactions into L1, it sends and stores them on a data availability layer.
The main challenge for decentralized social networks is to ensure that users have control over their content, while still being just as user-friendly as traditional social networks. Momoka makes the future of decentralized social possible.
We've worked relentlessly with the @bundlr-network.lens and Arweave teams to ensure scalability by providing Data Availability (DA) guarantees, allowing the use of Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-supported wallets to save DA logic and facilitating the rapid publishing of data.
Permissionless innovation is at the core of everything we do on Lens. As we approach one year on mainnet (still in beta), we have been blown away by the talent and passion in our dev community but we realize in order to scale to the masses, we need to build new solutions.
Since yesterday, Momoka is already being beta tested on Lenster, Lenstube, Orb, Buttrfly and Phaver.
We look forward to seeing more applications roll out Momoka.
To make it easier to find any transaction made with Momoka, we built the Momoka Explorer (http://momoka.lens.xyz) to track and find Momoka transactions and to monitor the throughput speed of Momoka.
Join our Spaces today at 15:30pm UTC to hear from @stani.lens, @wagmi.lens, @nader.lens, and special guests from Bundlr and Arweave: https://twitter.com/i/spaces/1nAKEryXyDYGL/peek

- Web3 project does not need to have a Discord server just because its a web3 project, in fact I think you could build a community within Lens and have a more decentralized approach that way
