- Navigating the Waters of Real-World Asset Tokenization: Insights from Backed’s Latest LaunchSwiss entity Backed continues to make strides in the tokenization of real-world assets, recently launching its latest product, bIB01, on Base blockchain, an L2 network developed by Coinbase. The new security token closely shadows the results of a short-term US treasury bond ETF, presenting a fresh, digital engagement mechanism for traditional finance enthusiasts.
Operating under the Swiss Distributed Ledger Technology Act, Backed’s tokenized securities are referred to as bTokens. Intriguingly, these Ethereum-based ERC-20 tokens embody the value of a range of real-world assets such as corporate bond ETFs, treasury ETFs, and publically traded shares. Previously Backed issued tokens on the Ethereum base layer and Gnosis blockchain, according to on-chain data from Dune Analytics.
Just like traditional stablecoins, the bTokens replicate the worth of their corresponding real-world assets; they are comprehensively collateralized, thereby ensuring their enduring value. The launch of bIB01 signals a crucial expansion in Backed’s tokenized security offerings.
When it comes to platform choice, Backed has lavished praise on the Base blockchain. They celebrate its cost-effectiveness and developer-friendly ambiance, ideal for devising and launching innovative tokenized securities products. Giorgio Giuliani, Head of Product at Backed, confirmed that the platform continually sees intriguing new use cases for its product, thus making Base an apt choice for further exploration.
But there is a caveat. Backed’s tokenized assets remain elusive to US-based investors due to lack of registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission or any state securities regulator. Thus, they cannot be traded, sold, or delivered within the US. It’s worth noting that bTokens are available solely to licensed resellers and certified investors who have completed standard protocols such as know-your-customer and anti-money laundering checks.
Even with these limitations, Backed’s blockchain applications present an interesting confluence of traditional asset classes with the digital world. It is also reflective of the gradual acceptance of blockchain technology amongst conventional financiers. However, the limited accessibility to a broader investor base could limit the potential growth of the platform. A fine example of how regulatory oversight continues to play a role in shaping the landscape of distributed ledger technologies. As for the future, let the innovation thrive and the markets decide.

- Stoner Cats NFTs are ‘fan crowdfunding,’ not securities — SEC’s Peirce, Uyeda
SEC Commissioners Hester Peirce and Mark Uyeda described the NFT sales as a “common phenomenon” in the world of creators.
The United States Securities and Exchange Commission’s decision to charge nonfungible token (NFT) project Stoner Cats sparked feedback from Commissioners Hester Peirce and Mark Uyeda, arguing that the project’s activity constitutes fan crowdfunding, which they believe is common for artists.
On Sept. 13, the SEC charged Stoner Cats 2 LLC, the firm behind the animated series “Stoner Cats,” with conducting an unregistered crypto-securities offering using NFTs. Stoner Cats 2 LLC agreed to a cease-and-desist order and other measures imposed by the commission.
Making its case, the SEC argued that the NFTs were marketed by the company as having potential for secondary sales and implied that their value would rise. In addition, the SEC pointed out that the company receives a 2.5% royalty on every secondary sale. The SEC highlighted that the company sold over 10,000 NFTs for $800 each, with the proceeds used to fund the series. Furthermore, there were at least 10,000 secondary sales, worth over $20 million, according to the SEC.

- **LIP-4: Profile Guardian**
We're creating a proposal to add a safety layer into Lens Protocol profiles to help Lens users to protect against phishing scams.
NFT owners including Lens profiles have been recently targeted with phishing attempts. While it's disheartening to see people lose their NFTs or profiles, we want to be proactive and innovate on the safety standards for NFTs.
We are introducing Profile Guardian which disables certain critical actions such as approvals and transfers for Lens profiles. Profile Guardian is enabled by default and can be opted-out if profile owners want to move it to a new address.
Disabling it will activate a 7-day cooldown period. During the 7-day cooldown period, services such as Lens API can track and provide the data to clients, who can notify users that their profiles are in an unsafe state, and recommend actions to secure the profile.
We hope Profile Guardian inspires others to improve end-user security when interacting with NFTs, especially as more users onboard into the web3 space.
Full Proposal: https://github.com/lens-protocol/LIPs/pull/18

- Mural by Dadospuntocero in Langreo, Spain
David Esteban Hernández, born in León in 1984, has made a name for himself in the world of muralism under the professional pseudonym ‘Dadospuntocero’. His journey into the realm of large-scale art began at the dawn of the new millennium, following his education at the School of Art in León. Despite pursuing further studies in social work, his passion for transforming spaces with the vivid hues of spray paint remained undimmed.
His academic background only enhanced his capability to inject personal flair into public spaces, curating thoughtful interventions that resonate with onlookers. Dadospuntocero is a master of perspective, deftly playing with viewer’s perception to create an immersive, three-dimensional experience that transcends the surface of his murals, delving into the profound depths of the context.
The hallmark of Dadospuntocero’s murals is the harmonious fusion of his unique vision with his chosen subjects. He frequently conjures whimsical portrayals of everyday objects, often finding inspiration at the intersection of the discarded and the natural. This distinctive style captures the imagination of the audience, serving as a testament to his extraordinary skill as a muralist.

- おはよう @ethglobal.lens Tokyo! 🇯🇵
The Lens team is on the ground and we're so excited to bring the social layer of web3 to Japan.
We have $20k in prizes for the hackathon!
🥇 1st $5k
🥈 2nd $3k
🥉 3rd $2k
🎖️ 10 best Lens Integrations for nullk each
Lens is web3 native meaning it’s simple to build native payment features directly into your app. Mirrors, collects, follows and comments allow creators to monetize their content directly to the user, without intermediaries, and in a permissionless way. Premium content, token-gated rewards, tipping, crowdfunding, subscription services, referral, and affiliate programs are just a handful of the countless types of integrations you can build with Lens.
Looking for some inspiration?
- We're still in the early innings of AI and ML and want to see more devs utilizing the latest innovations from OpenAI, Replicate, HuggingFace, LangChain, and Dust just to name a few. Imagine the possibilities when web3 social intersects with AI/ML 🤯
- You could use AI/ML to analyze a user’s feed over the course of a few days and condense it into a single view so they can visit less often and still be up to date with what’s the latest and greatest.
- Or create a social learning platform that uses AI to create personalized learning paths for users. It could assess users' knowledge levels, recommend relevant learning materials, and provide real-time
feedback and guidance.
- You could use Lens profiles specifically for your gaming identity. Imagine your in-game items and high scores attached to your Lens profile and you curate a Lens leaderboard for the community.
- Bust a move! Build an app that lets users participate in virtual dance-off challenges. Users can record and upload their dances, challenge friends or random users, and compete for the elusive best dancer on Lens title 💃🕺
- Build a community app for @galverse.lens on Lens that utilizes the Splits for Collects feature (https://docs.lens.xyz/docs/create-post-typed-data#multirecipientfeecollectmodule) and you'll help with the development of the anime, character design, story, and more.
- Imagine using the Collect module for more exclusive content such as event ticketing.
- How about building a governance forum specifically for Lens users? gm DAOs 🤔
- Calling all pet lovers out there. Create a social platform where users can showcase their pets' talents, tricks, and general awesomeness. Users can upload videos of their pets and participate in virtual talent shows, with categories like "Best Trick," and "Funniest Moment"
- Want to bridge that gap from web2 social to web3? Build a site that shows you the most followed people that have used a site (maybe the 🐦 app) or help users connect their web2 account and generate a ZKP for mapping.
- Or a Lens creator dashboard for tracking post analytics (engagement, collects, revenue, etc) and helping you find your 1000 true fans.
- Maybe you find yourself collecting every post from one of the 100k profiles already on Lens. Create a module to “subscribe” to someone and automatically collect everything the post within certain parameters.

- Lens has probably made more headway in account abstraction than most other efforts. Just think about how cool it is to use orb and use a dispatcher. Now we need some sort of dispatcher for using matic off chain. ERC-4337 fixes this.

The artwork for the song was taken in Malta and the vibe is: you've told someone (my sister) to take pics of you on holiday and after the 28590th picture, you reach out to say 'okay thank you' but the sun is in your eye so you squint a bit. Can anyone relate? 🤣
