- HNY everyone!
2024 and Lens to me is about finding the unfamiliar again and truly building generational tech and products. Copying what’s come before is the safer and easier choice but doesn’t create the same groundbreaking impact.
I reflect a lot on TikTok, when I joined I knew ByteDance had built something innovative in Asia, but it’s future in the west in wasn’t so clear. My friends thought I was crazy leaving my current situation and didn’t understand what it could become. To everyone now it’s obvious, but back then it wasn’t and disregarded by many before it’s hockey stick growth and inflection point.
Being able to now say I was part of a generational global product now is something I’m very proud of. I’ll never forget being allocated the same desk in NYC WeWork with 12 desks as Zhang Yiming on my first day who was in town and graciously told me to keep it. Or early days having the opportunity to be in meetings with Alex Zhu whose philosophy about social apps as countries and co creation as a social fabric still resonates today and blue print for social builders. Even I didn’t realize it at the time how lucky I was, but I hold these moments today.
It’s why in jumped into web3 finally after many years of being on the surface personally. I had conviction after my bet on ByteDance played out and excited to embark on another.
Next goal is being able to say I was part of infrastructure backbone making possible the next wave of innovative consumer products.
While the power of @lens/lensprotocol may be invisible to most, if there is one thing I’ve learned it’s that game changing tech more than often comes from what not everyone sees.
It’s never what’s familiar and expected to all. That’s why it’s disruptive.
2024 let’s rock.

- Which Lens creator do you think is or could be vegan? 🥑 🥦 🥬
I have always been interested in veganism, a way of life that demonstrates respect for nature and non-human beings most effectively. It seems that there are people in Lens Frens who are or could potentially be vegan.
Who do you think in the ecosystem is vegan or has the potential to be? Let's discuss this in the comments! **💚**
Btw, I think @mazemari.lens is not vegan but could be easily imo

Paff is a co-founder of Take Up Space. A community, creator collective and media company for culture-makers. Through community, events and media, their goals are to create opportunities for POC & queer voices to take up space as their most authentic selves.
We talk about earlier times on the internet, music forum culture, meeting people IRL through music festivals, dance floors and events. How shifting economic forces in cities around the world are making the artist lifestyle much more difficult to sustain than even 10-20 years ago, as culture is pushed to the edges.

This week, prioritize taking action over words, as actions speak lowder.
Remember to "**JFD**I" (Just F***ing Do It) and have a fantastic week ahead 🚀
What are you working on this week?
- Bali is the island of motorcycles and incredible nature imo 🌴🛵
- it would be interesting to take advantage of the ✨✨✨ onchain possibilities ✨✨✨ to set your ens avatar as your pfp on lens ecosystem 🌿
this could even be included as a default option when creating new lens profiles, simplifying the visual identity consistency among the existing services that support it 🤌
- Crypto exchange JPEX has pointed the finger at its third-party market makers for “maliciously” freezing funds which led to the exchange being forced to hike withdrawal fees to battle a liquidity crisis.

- `getting started` with #lens in 5 steps 🪴 [August 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 - 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 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 : "be yourself, try to engage with people, sharing images seems to accelerate engagement/growth, people love to 'GM'"
It is quite challenging to get attention, especially for new profiles. A few approaches to get more 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 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) and/or communities on @orbapp.lens .
**[3]** consider contributing content to the weekly @thisweekon.lens highlight series ( https://lenster.xyz/posts/0x01d898-0x04 ) or other content threads. (Keep an eye on @ryanfox.lens ;-).)
**[4]** consider participating in campaigns / events on lens or create an event (maybe check out #OPENLENS for reference). (If you plan to create something please feel free to reach out 🤍)
**[5]** consider joining lens spaces on @buttrfly.lens .
**[6]** @ profiles you think your content is relevant for or you would like to get input from. Pls be selective and not spammy.
`cover artists of the month`
**TYSM** @eastie.lens for creating this beautiful getting started cover 🤍🙏.
Collect is the #lens super power. The “getting started” post is a 333 limited edition (0.3 WMATIC with 50% mirror fee share, the collect fee goes 100% to the artists.)
What does it mean? You can collect one of 333 available NFTs of @eastie.lens ‘ awesome artwork (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 from the collect fee will go directly to the artists’ address.
Is there any utility? Everyone who collects this post can suggest and vote on the next “getting started” cover artist.
`advanced topics`
**other mobile apps**: @converseapp.lens ( @xmtplabs.lens mobile messaging app), @lenstaxyz.lens image focused lens mobile app.
**other browser apps**: @pinsta.lens pin lens content, create and publish pinsta boards. @beatsapp.lens music focused lens app. @focalize.lens browser extension for posting on lens. @youfolio.lens trading lens creator tokens. @dumpling.lens video platform on lens. @diversehq.lens Reddit inspired lens app. @collectz.lens amazing app to share what you’ve collected and what’s for sale (eg https://collectz.xyz/u/cavernaeremita/forsale ). @lenspeer.lens social media platform supporting ERC-6551 wallets. @buttrfly.lens for web.
**video**: @lenstubelogs.lens videos on lens. @glassxyz.lens protocol for decentralised video.
**market place**: @lensport.lens buy and sell collects, create token gated posts, ... .
**fun**: @memester-xyz.lens create memes easily and publish directly on lens. www.lyrical.world (#LensAI) create ai generated images and publish on lens. @amnisiac.lens listen to music in your feed or other profile's feed (e.g. @mixtape.lens ). @truthordare.lens ;-). @lensgardennft.lens dynamic activity based NFTs. word cloud generator by @rickydata.lens https://lens-wordcloud.streamlit.app . Lens circles by @juancito.lens circles.inlens.xyz .
**games** : Lensbird the Lens version of Flappybird by @thefriendly.lens ( https://lensbird.onfriendly.io )
**tools**: @chainjet.lens automate processes, like notifications ( @remindmebot.lens 👀). https://lens.sepana.io very powerful lens search. @lensdropxyz raffle tokens based on constraints (e.g. 1 of the profiles who collected post xyz will get a NFT). @wav3s.lens incentivise people to mirror or comment content. @madfinance.lens Lens Bounties, allowing creators to earn "by creating a Lens post using the creative direction of a brand". @letsrally.lens lens spaces. @wagmifund.lens decentralised crowd funding platform. @ethpass.lens add your lens profile to Apple or google wallet. postter.xyz schedule posts. @socllyofficial.lens “creator-centric” toolkit.
**data**: profile.lenskit.xyz profile overview with a github like activity board. https://dune.com/xmc2/lens-profiler get an overview of your lens statistics. friesGPT by @jessyfries.lens x @attraction.lens
**ready to test**: @lensplayxyz.lens video browsing, @lenshareapp.lens video platform, @converseapp.lens mobile messaging (android). @chromadin.lens “A din of iridescent static fills the air as you tune into intercepted signals. Beyond the boundaries of conventional networks you are here, live at the edge of an irrevocable threshold.” :-) @ensocollective digital closet. @lenspostxyz.lens canva for web3 socials & collaborative design.
**coming soon**: @onboardapp.lens general purpose app. #theDial by @emmajane1313.lens . @natasocial (aka LensTags) content discovery and organisation. https://www.chesswithfrens.com/ chess with lens frens by @krantz.lens . @t2world.lens social network around reading and writing.
**lens protocol stats** - provided by @buttrfly.lens (weekly posts + comments):
@lenster.lens 61.8%
@phaver.lens 19.7%
@orbapp.lens 8.4%
@buttrfly.lens 1.9%
@lenstubelogs.lens 1.0%
@chainjet.lens 0.9%
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 two great posts “How to grow on Lens ...” https://lenster.xyz/posts/0x0132-0x02a5 https://lenster.xyz/posts/0x0132-0x036d and maybe take a look what he did with the content in the following days. 👀
* might be not available due to the recent restrictions on twitter.

- 35 Exploring Ethereum with Interface — wijuwiju.eth
wijuwiju.eth is an initial contributor at Interface. Their app is a companion for exploring the realms of Ethereum. A tool that makes sense of onchain data, context and meaning that is all over the place.
Gathering it together in ways that are understandable, enjoyable, surprisingly social, and actionable in terms of being on top of signals in the crypto space.
We talk about how their team came together to build on these ideas. From an initial burst of support via a 50 ETH crowdfund on Mirror. What their team has been building since then, including essential contributions in design by annoushka. And some alpha for what’s on the near horizon.
If you have collected the UFO Genesis Pass, UFO mints on Mirror and Zora, or subscribe to UFO on Lens — you have unlocked points which give you early access to Interface!

- We're excited to share the 3️⃣ new Aave grants awarded during June. Let's take a look at what they're building in the Aave ecosystem 👻
**1️⃣ Governance Facilitation for Aave by Boardroom**
Boardroom has contributed a weekly Governance Recap to the Aave DAO since last September. This new grant will see the recaps continue for another 6 months.
**2️⃣ Libree DAO’s Treasury Credit Delegation**
Libree has created a Credit Delegation plugin that can be used by any existing and new Aragon DAO. This plugin allows DAOs to deposit their treasury in AAVE and grant a credit delegation on other DAOs, projects, or users. This will enable DAOs to make their treasury more capital efficient and to execute automatically approved credit delegation proposals.
**3️⃣ Decentralized Analytics for Monitoring GHO’s Health and Stability**
@dapplooker.lens will create comprehensive and customizable dashboards for @gho.lens with deep analytics & multiple parameters. A portion of funds will be used to engage the community on Metrics DAO to create new analytics.
👻👻👻
Explore more details on each grant and updates from some of our previous grantees including Including Unit, @fuji_finance.lens, Senate Labs, Ithil, @projection.lens and the Ladies Network for Economic Freedom in our June Update on the governance forum: https://governance.aave.com/t/agd-renewal-4-recent-work-updates/11585/9?u=0xbilll
