Bring Your Whole Self to the Party with Disco.xyz gm lens fam 🪩 Disco is your identity for the Metaverse. At Disco, we believe you are the multifaceted center of the party, and so you should be able to own, control, and reflect data about yourself to the world however you choose. Think of us as your data backpack 🎒, where you can stash your private data in a way that’s owned and controlled by you. Creating your data backpack is similar to building an online profile, with components you can take with you across sites. Our identities are complex and ever-evolving, and so too should the way we reflect the parts about ourselves in our daily interactions–online and IRL, onchain and offchain. That commitment to expression, fun, and social interaction is what brings us to Lens! We are here to make sure that you never fill out a form again, that you never go to a concert of your favorite artist without receiving the VIP treatment that you've earned at home, that you never show up to a conference and have to wait in line. You should be able to control the parts of yourself– or the things you do online– by choosing what you share publicly or what you keep in your backpack for your eyes only. We’re excited to be here and can’t wait for the Lens community to join us on the dancefloor! Get DIDdy w/ it, collect this post, and claim your data backpack at app.disco.xyz/ 🏆 Anyone who collects this post by 6/9 will receive a GM credential in their backpacks! 🏆 #genesispost
