- Congratulations to @lens/princetiwari for your new car - and to @lens/iamtherealyakuza for the balls of steel to make that offer in @lens/bonsai π€©
We're currently witnessing history in the making - as the highest RWA sell on @lens/lens (so far afaik) in $bonsai
I have a feeling I already know who's on top of the @lens/ornaart stats this week π And what @lens/trustmebro gonna feature next time π€π
- Keep 'em coming!
- Here's a timelapse of a digital drawing I made last year. I had been losing track of how much time I was spending on these, so I added a little counter.
- Can we lock the devs of all major Lens platforms in a room so they can fight out some basic rules on how to render text the same way?
FFS, why even bother making a structured list when platforms then βοΈabstract awayβοΈ even the numbers?
Every creator on Lens is basically like this after posting some text they redefined over and over again before posting:
- Would be great if Lens Protocol could improve the page that profiles/projects can link to (or share).
Right now there's https://share.lens.xyz/u/lens/seliqui which is a good start, but it seems a bit outdated. I'd like to see some streamlined approach to that. Like that the URL is just https://lens.xyz/seliqui
Which then displays a grid of all the major Lens plaforms with links to the profile on them.
With some logic to highlight Lens platforms the handle posted on or interacted with. And maybe even some of the neat infos like @lens/daoleno shows on lenscan.io - such as the reputation score, following/followers count and general activity infos.
Sure, if you're primarily a video producer, it makes sense to link directly to your profile on @lens/tape . Or if you're a gamer who's livestreaming, you'll link to @lens/bloomerstv , and so on.
But the power of Lens comes through it's interoperability, and most users outside of Lens have no clue about that. Maybe that subpage gives them a very quick info of what Lens is about, provides links to the platforms relevant to the handle (with some explanation) AND then also a direct way to onboard.
Not sure if that request qualifies for a LIP, but if that's the way to go I'll happily open one up for it. @lens/lens @lens/stani
- This might kickstart a RWA marketplace with $bonsai on Lens π
- Drop π your Lil Bonsai π³
- Lil Bonsai Maker, a new model from culture currency @lens/bonsai and artist @lens/adriamasnou is now available on TITLES.

- Just a thought:
Option to set the limitation, that a post can only collected/minted if the content got consumed.
Let me explain:
One of the best known limitation for who can mint is right now "Followers only". But what if, let's say as a Music/Video/Podcast creator, you want to make sure that people actually listen/watch to the whole thing. Maybe because that's crucial for the feedback you need/want. So when it's a limited mint, you know the ones who have it, are actually your audience.
I just listened to @lens/augustuscaesar recent "Accidentally DeFi" post, that's 17min long - and limited to 25 mints. Theoretically, those 25 could've been gone whilst not even the first one actually finished listening to it.
- I'd love to see a seconds Lens Hackathon focused on Open Actions and Lens Frames! LFGrow was epic; the birthplace of Hey, Tape, MadFi, Soclly, Lenscan, and Karma3Labs.
Open Actions, and Lens Module in general, enable so many interesting use cases and I think most web3 developers don't know about them yet.
- Tip now with $bonsai on @lens/hey via the new native tipping feature they just launched!

- Cross platform Lens x Farcaster audio spaces are coming soon to @buttrfly ποΈβ¨π I was testing it earlier today with Pol from Converse!
Comment below to be added to the test groupβ¦
- This song goes out to the @lens/bonsai lovers π³
- this may very well become the official Bonsai anthem... it deserves more collects!
- π± [Update] Bonsai 1/1 Gallery π±
This platform is rapidly becoming my passion project. I plan to soon transition it from the current "lens-profile-checker" dashboard into its own unique showcase and platform, designed specifically for Lens' premium creators and collectors. I also need a name for this app! Any suggestions?
https://lens-profile-checker.vercel.app/gallery
Here's what's new:
π©· Launch of a detailed collectible information page.
π©΅ Implementation of a "buy now" feature.
π New sorting functionality to "order by price."
π Enhanced in-platform rendering for audio and video content.
π Coming soon:
π Dedicated pages for collector and artist details.
π Improved filtering options for better navigation.
π Minting functionality to create new collectibles directly on the platform.
The collect feature is not yet operational on mobile devices, but you can easily open it on Orb and make purchases there, as demonstrated in the video!
π Collect if you want to support this solo development (for now)! I'll soon need to cover some infrastructure costs (the backend server slows down if inactive on the free option).

- PSA for anyone not aware of this: The Graph hosted service endpoints will no longer work after June 12. There is an upgrade flow in place which is just a few clicks to move your subgraphs from the hosted-service to the decentralized network. If you use subgraphs and use the hosted service in production you'll want to move over. Luckily it's straightforward - please reach out if you need help!

I've been werking hard to make sure my art keeps evolving! βοΈπ¨β¨
Lately I've been using moar vivid colors, dynamic shading, higher frame-counts, and subtle shadows to create a better sense of space. I'm hoping the style I've created gives the art a feeling like it's both 2d and 3d at the same time!
- Yesterday was a great gifting day. I was closing one of my exhibitions with 15 paintings. Some if them are here mintable on @club/orb .
My son have not seen them before, and he realy like two of the paintings with runes. I asked him if he like to have them. And he said, yes! He like to have them in his room, so he have 5 of my paintings. I said-so be it my dier. One painting I gave as gift to the place where happend exhibition and her manager and one of the workers.
I realy love giving gifts and a big part of it is just because or @lens/orb where I as artistcan earn, give a chance to earn, help earning people and not stress about selling paintings, but even better gost them to those who cant aford them. What better can that be!!! π
This is posible because of my wife, a friend and aplication makers. So I like to share income from this multicollection of that day @lens/laurita, @lens/nilesh
Letβs make some more piaitive vibes. ππ»πThank you all supporters and fallowers, for this to happen. π
- Just set up a Farcaster profile via Warpcast to secure my handle there. Not being able to pay those 5β¬/year in crypto for being on a web3 platform is so stupid π€¦
In some way, I still paid with it tho - here's how I did it:
1. Provided Liquidity for BONSAI/MATIC on Uniswap
2. Collected fees, then claimed them
3. Crosschain-swap of those MATIC on Polygon to EURe on GnosisChain
4. Transferred EURe to my GnosisPay Safe Account
5. Bought Google Play Gift card at the supermarket with GnosisPay VISA Card, spending the EURe
6. Filled up the Balance of my Google Play Account
7. Paid β¬ 5.49 via Google Play to get the handle
If that's not straightforward, I don't know what is π

Anyone working on this - or something similar?

- Weβre so happy to see so many monetization experiments here on Lens!
Little advice from a person thatβs seen many trends in the nft space.
Build your audience, look after it, and start small with monetization. Slow and steady win the race. You want big distribution and affordability, otherwise you wonβt build a sustainable audience β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ

Imagine if Iβll put out a Trust Me Beer side event during @lens/ethprague where to join youβd just need to collect a post.
Then come up to the place, show your collected post, sit down and donβt care about the bill.

- Once there's a good/great secondary market in place for collects, basically every collectable post will have some limitation activated. Time, amount, followees/clubs. More likely a combination.
- Looking forward to 2025, where I unlock my phone to listen to music on the go and I'm not sure if I should listen to my Spotify playlists or my collection playlist on @lens/orb
- Looks like @lens/carlamonni has to pull a @lens/iamtherealyakuza and start over on @lens/lens after her "cmn_" account got compromised π
That sucks big time. So, if you followed her 'old' account, make a switcherooo now!

- It's more likely I'll spend $bonsai on collecting something, if the description points to some other post(s) showcasing how it got created.
Like Screenrecording/Timelapse-Clips, or regular posts about the progress. Makes it easier to get a feeling for the amount of time/work that went into it.
What's your take?
