A public good to attest everything onchain and offchain.
Two options for using this as a Requirement in Guilds:
Be attested by: requiring an attestation from someone
Attest: stating something about another individual
Creating, verifying, and revoking attestations is already available on Ethereum, Arbitrum One, Optimism, Base and Sepolia!
Here is an in-depth walkthrough by EAS on creating attestations and setting them up in Guild: twitter.com/eas_eth/status/16…

- `getting started` with #lens in 5 steps 🪴 [May 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) 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.
one more thing :-) being active, commenting on posts and topics you are interested in goes a long way. Of course there is a chance that your posts will be discovered, commented and mirrored, but you increase the probability of being discovered dramatically with valuable comments. @jeanmi.lens increased his followers +5k within 39 days. How he did it? "be yourself, try to engage with people, sharing images seems to accelerate engagement/growth, people love to ‘GM'"
One more one more thing ;-) the latest notification update shows notifications for profiles one follows and a few other profiles only (if the filter isn’t deactivetd). -> at the time of writing it’s quite challenging to get attention, especially for new profiles. 2 approaches to get some visibility:
**[1]** @animators.lens started on lens drawing lens PFPs https://lenster.xyz/posts/0x0108fb-0x75 . Imo still one of the best (high quality) growth hacks I’ve seen on lens yet (0 to 100 followers). Maybe you can think of something inspired by @animators.lens ’ idea based on your talent and skills.
**[2]** consider joining the next “little lens game” edition :-) https://lenster.xyz/posts/0x0f85-0x1407 . The little lens games intends to be fun (of course :-)) and requires to follow other lens profiles for 24/48 hours closely. -> your content will have at least some exposure to people beyond your followers. (Please let me know if you would like to join.)
**[3]** maybe join communities on diversehq.lens (e.g. you can post directly to the @mixtape.lens feed, be active in the #lensfit community or join c/food)
`cover artist of the month`
TYSM @chaoticmonk.lens for creating this beautiful - and **first** - getting started cover 🤍🙏. If you haven't already I highly recommend to take a look at @chaoticmonk.lens profile. (maybe you can find some available collects of the fantastic "Foto A Day" series.)
**Collect is the super power of #lens**, starting with this edition the “gettting started” post is a 333 limited edition (0.3 WMATIC with 50% mirror fee share, the collect fee goes 100% to the artist.)
What does it mean? You can collect one of 333 available NFTs of @chaoticmonk.lens awesome photo (and this post :-)). If you mirror the post and the post will be collected via your mirror, you will get 0.15 WMATIC. The revenue generated through the collect fee will go directly to the artist’s address.
Is there any utility? Everyone who collects this post can suggest and vote on the next “getting started” cover artist.

If you are interested in **content distribution** and increasing your reach on lens, maybe the following post is a good starting point: https://lenster.xyz/posts/0x017566-0xdf (e.g. @bvdaniel.lens combined his introduction post with an eye catching visual (only follower can collect) and an incentivised mirror (+100 followers ). 120+ collects, 80+ mirrors, 40+ comments ...)
@luduvigo.lens wrote a great post “How to grow on Lens: Episode 0 to 500 followers” https://lenster.xyz/posts/0x0132-0x02a5 and maybe take a look what he did with the content in the following days. 👀

#gettingstarted #5steps #newonlens #howto #onboarding
- Look at lexi and aira on hogwarts Legacy
- dYdX worth about $15.45 million and APT worth $42.12 million will be unlocked this week
- The vote on the proposal of "approving the DAO fund management principles and authorizing the establishment of a treasury fund management committee" in the Lido community has ended and passed with a 100% support rate
- Metaverse platform Transmira announced the completion of $4 million in equity financing
- Nobody asked, but here’s my 2 MATIC on Instagram’s recent announcement concerning the shutdown of their short lived NFT pilot:
If you’re in web3 and you’re surprised or disappointed about Instagram sunsetting their digital collectibles initiative, that therein lies the issue.
You cannot say that you are working towards mass adoption without considering the wants and needs of traditional consumers.
Ask 10 people that you know outside of the web3 space how they felt about Instagram removing NFTs and you’re likely to receive one of three responses:
1) I didn’t know that they had them
2) I didn’t care that they had them
3) I didn’t like that they had them
Digital collectibles on Instagram predominantly appealed to folks who were already leveraging blockchain, but they didn’t really move the needle for their web2 consumer base, aka 99.9% of their users.
I personally found it exciting that Instagram decided to dabble with NFTs, similarly to how Reddit, Inc. and Spotify are doing so. Nonetheless, their decision to reevaluate shouldn’t be condemned.
It’s still early. The way NFTs have been introduced to the general public has been less than ideal. And it certainly doesn’t help that seemingly every week, there is a new crisis in crypto.
We have a very long way to go before mass adoption becomes a feasibility.
Instead of being upset by setbacks, let’s shift our focus to how we approach creating opportunities for web2 natives to participate in the web3 landscape by meeting them where they are.
More importantly, this is obviously a great opportunity for @lensprotocol.lens to further solidify itself as the leader in digital collectibles on social.
I had the privilege of being a member of the latest Lens @creators.lens accelerator cohort and I’m confident that despite market conditions, Lens will continue to facilitate innovative ways for creators of all kinds to thrive in the world of web3 social.
I’m looking forward to witnessing how the landscape will continue to evolve over the course of the next few quarters. And I’m even more excited about being an early adopter during this time.
Here’s to the future of the intersection of digital collectibles and social media 🥂
