- I took this picture today from a hot air balloon in Mexico
- 💰 800,000 Bitcoin has been pulled from exchanges in the last three years
- Merging the 1000th pull request in @lenstubelogs.lens today 🥺 💪🏻
- What do you all think if there is ability to put context into a post? My thinking was that instead of context maybe users could vote on a post (its hidden behind access, not in your face). Idea is that if a post is controversial on facts people will go vote against it or for it
- I like the who voted as social proof
- I just voted "yes" on "Stargate Foundation 12-month Budget Proposal" https://snapshot.org/#/stgdao.eth/proposal/0x2eff53c9e9f0bf19a98345d1d32103ec0ec859d81978eecacb38db16be33b94b #Snapshot

- Parallel: The Origin Story of Web3’s Breakout Game
MrGone and Kalos are CoFounders of Parallel.
In this episode, we dive into the origin story of Web3's breakout game--Parallel! Join us for a tour of the captivating sci-fi universe of Parallel and its digital trading card game (TCG), which has been in development for over 2 years. Having recently launched in closed beta, Parallel's flagship TCG is getting rave reviews with over 100k matches already played in its first month since launch.
Parallel is a standout in the new world of Web3 gaming, and we are here to dissect how they’ve gone about building this iconic franchise. Most importantly, we'll dive into how this TCG is designed to benefit from the use of their ERC20 token PRIME, cards and in-game assets sold as NFTs, and other Web3 elements to make for more engaging gameplay.
Be sure to listen to the end for some real alpha on Parallel Colony, a new category of gaming promising to be the world's first passive AI avatar game powered by OpenAI!

- By enabling any developer or team to build their own recommendation algorithm, the combination of easier to leverage AI primitives, open protocols, and immutable public data are paving the way for a more personalized and superior user experience (UX) for social applications.
With apps like Twitter, TikTok, and Instagram people are stuck with the given recommendation algorithm without any choices or options other than leave the platform if they don't like it.
For instance a lot of changes have happened with the Twitter recommendation algorithm. People have complained that they see a lot more clickbait, but the only other option is just the "Following" feed or to leave.
In theory, because web3 and blockchain data is public, developers and teams could build their own recommendation algorithms. I said "in theory" because in the past this was not really a thing as this type of system did not really exist before.
We're now starting to see some great alternative recommendation algorithms emerge and become available in the @LensProtocol ecosystem, and apps are already starting to pick them up!
Here are a few teams working on this from various angles (not inclusive of all teams):
1. Karma3Labs - Is a ranking and reputation infrastructure using the EigenTrust algorithm. It enables developers to curate a ranking and recommendation system for their apps based on on-chain data.
https://karma3labs.com
2. Whitebox from @kozlovchad - Is an open protocol to consume, develop and collaborate on modular, composable, and transparent algorithms, owned by the developers.
I think of this as something like an NPM for recommendation algorithms
https://whitebox.build
3. @madfinance - creating various recommendation algorithms like a suggested follows API + "For You" API and enabling optionally financial mechanisms allowing users to boost themselves
https://creators.madfinance.xyz
We have a handful more that are also available or being worked on.
Watch this space! It is one of the key differentiators between private, proprietary, and sometimes predatory social networks of the past, and modern social platforms like @LensProtocol

- Create together, earn together 🌿
Creators can now split revenue earned from Collects.
Share earnings with as many as 5 creators. With custom percentage splits.
Collects is among the most popular features on Lens.
We recently added the option to set limited quantities and/or time limits to collectible posts.
We’re excited to offer new ways for collectors to support creators, and for creators to monetize with Collects.
Learn how to implement the Multi recipient Fee Collect Module in our dev docs: https://docs.lens.xyz/docs/create-post-typed-data#multirecipientfeecollectmodule
Start using Splits today on @buttrfly.lens , @lenster.lens & @lenstube.lens - with more soon to come!
- @lensgardennft is a project built on top of the Lens Protocol that aims to incentivize organic actions on the Lens Protocol by rewarding users who exhibit high levels of activity on the platform.
@lensgardennft 's approach is unique in that it seeks to incentivize users to contribute to the growth and sustainability of the Lens Protocol ecosystem, rather than simply focusing on the creation and trading of NFTs. The project aims to build a strong community of engaged users who are actively contributing to the Lens Protocol, and rewards them with access to apps developed on the platform, such as Lens Tunes.
@lensgardennft is a project that is designed to encourage and reward active participation on the Lens Protocol, while also helping to build a stronger and more vibrant community of creators and users on the platform.

- `getting started` with #lens in 5 steps 🪴 [March 2023 update]
(0 a) maybe consider adding some information about yourself and a pfp to your profile before you start.
(0 b) "hello world" posts get quite some attention ... 😉 . (if you can post something related to what you are interested in ... 🎇 -> People you start following might take a look at your profile and follow if they are interested in the content you share.) Find one great example at the end of the post.
(1) https://lists.inlens.xyz/lists/818891525288558593 *updated* - list of great profiles to start your lens journey ... you will discover a ton, worth following profiles in the communities of people in this list. lists.inlens.xyz/ in general is a great starting point.
(2) find your twitter contacts on lens: inlens.xyz/ (not everyone with a lens profile, active on twitter, is very active on lens (yet ;-)). Maybe consider connecting with new people, sharing interesting content on lens.)
(3) probably you read this post on @lenster.lens . If you are interested in lens mobile apps, @orbapp.lens and @buttrfly.lens (iOS only) are at the moment - imo - the most advanced general purpose lens mobile apps. One of the beautiful things regarding lens is that it doesn't matter which lens app you use, every lens app has access to the same content and social graph.
(4) what you share on lens is stored and publicly available for a very long time. Probably *forever*. You can hide posts, comments and mirrors. But that's a front-end feature, the data is still available and publicly accessible.
(5) "collects" are a very powerful concept, adding a NFT version of the post to your address (4th symbol below a post on @lenster.lens ). Collects can be monetised -> creators can use collect fees to earn money on lens.
`advanced topics`
