And of course, see the examples below:
- #Web3 games make it possible to enforce marketplace royalties so that game developers continuously earn revenue every time an NFT is transacted.
This simple change fundamentally alters the incentive structure between game publishers and players.
Game monetization and design are intrinsically linked.

- **Guide to Polygon NFTs**
With a string of a-list partners and an ever-expanding ecosystem, Polygon is a network that’s worth paying attention to. However, Polygon NFTs are relatively lesser-known, perhaps because many wallets don’t fully support them.
In this post, we explore Polygon NFT marketplaces and top NFT collections.
📈 **Polygon NFT marketplaces**
Many NFT marketplaces support Polygon — below are the leading ones in terms of volume.
**1. OpenSea**
The best-known NFT marketplace, @opensea.lens added Polygon in August 2022. Despite lots of competition, OpenSea has the largest trading volumes for Polygon NFTs.
Besides trading, OpenSea also lets anyone easily create Polygon NFTs with “lazy minting”. With this method, no gas is paid until the NFT is sold.
**2. MagicEden**
Originally focused on Solana, MagicEden has grown into a cross-chain NFT giant. The marketplace added support for Polygon in November 2022.
MagicEden also has lots of tools to help creators successfully sell NFTs. This includes whitelists, launchpads, and auctions. This isn’t open to all, and there is a vetting process for creators to ensure quality.
**3. Dew**
Currently in invite-only, Dew.gg is a dedicated Polygon NFT marketplace aggregator tailored for pro traders on the Polygon network. Despite still not being fully open, Dew has been steadily gaining trading volumes.
Dew offers features that help traders, such as fast listing updates, floor sweeping, and advanced charts. To get access to Dew, you need an invite from one of the existing users (each user gets 5 invites).
🔍 **Polygon NFT collections**
While Polygon has lots of run-of-the-mill PFP collections, it’s also home to some of the most interesting NFT experiments.
**1. Y00ts**
Launched in September 2022 on Solana, y00ts is a generative art project with 15,000 NFTs.
The project made headlines when De Labs, the company behind y00ts, got a $3 million grant from Polygon to move the collection from Solana to the Polygon blockchain. The transfer started in March, and now over 12k NFTs are on Polygon. With a 2 ETH floor, it’s currently the top collection on Polygon.
**2. Lens profiles**
@lensprotocol handles are a hot commodity — still, only whitelisted addresses can mint the handle.
While mining is free, the floor price is over $200. The total volume traded is over 4.2 million MATIC, according to MagicEden.
Collected Lens posts are also Polygon NFTs. However, a different collection is created for each post. So the market is somewhat fragmented and posts rarely feature in the lists of trending NFTs.
**3. Reddit Collectible Avatars**
Reddit chose the Polygon blockchain to launch the sale of their collective avatars. Reddit sold over 10 *million* NFTs with a total market cap exceeding $75 million.
Recently, Reddit launched the second wave of avatars from 100 different artists. Each artist has a separate NFT collection.
**4. Sandbox land NFTs**
In November 2022, Sandbox, the popular metaverse and gaming platform, started to sell their digital land as Polygon NFTs, moving on from Ethereum.
Most Sanbox land plots are now traded on Polygon with a total volume of over 6.2 million MATIC. The land isn’t cheap: the average price is over 1,000 MATIC.
**5. Unstoppable Domains**
Similar to ENS, Unstoppable Domains offer domain names as NFTs. Unlike ENS, these NFTs live on the Polygon blockchain.
There are over 3 million domain NFTs. So the floor price is extremely low. However, shorter and more memorable domains could be valuable.
**6. Galxe OAT2**
Galxe OAT (On-chain Achievement Token) are free NFTs issued for taking parts in various campaigns on Galxe. Over 9 million OATs were issued.
While OATs are minted for free, some people buy them. Perhaps they expect to qualify for some whitelisted, allowlists, or other on-chain opportunities.
**7. Gaming NFTs**
Polygon is the network of choice for many blockchain games. Some of those games use NFTs to represent characters and items in the games.
Game NFTs are often even more volatile than other collections. That’s because the value of NFTs can depend on the in-game mechanics (which can change). Games can also quickly go viral and can fall out of favor just as fast.
To find interesting game NFTs on Polygon, you can simply filter collections on OpenSea. MagicEden also has a dedicated Games tab, which features various blockchain games.
👀 **How to view your Polygon NFTs**
Not every crypto wallet adequately displays Polygon NFTs.
However, Zerion Wallet fully supports the Polygon blockchain, including NFTs. You can easily import your existing wallet via a seed phrase or private key.
When you mint or buy NFTs, you can see them in your transaction history. After that, the NFT will show up in a dedicated part of the portfolio that tracks NFTs across all chains.
Alternatively, you can connect your existing wallet to the Zerion web app and see all your Polygon NFTs.

- 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.

- Today, MetaMask launched MM Bridge 🦊
Also, a Google Form to be a testnet validator in the zk-EVM solution from ConsenSys just opened 4hs ago. Fill it now!
A reminder that this year Lubin already confirmed a MM token.
Here is what you can do to try and get all airdrops: 🧵🪂
1/6
This is the WhiteFoxMask airdrop thread I made in April.
I covered using the MetaMask swap feature. If you haven't already, give it a try. It's a good way to interact with MM at a blockchain level
These smart contracts could be used for a snapshot:
https://twitter.com/OlimpioCrypto/status/1514432535685578754
2/6
Today MetaMask launched a new feature: Bridges.
It's a bridge aggregator integrated with Hop, Connext, Celer, cBridge and Polygon Bridge.
Another good way to interact with MetaMask's smart contracts, this could serve for a snapshot.
Try it now: http://portfolio.metamask.io/bridge
3/6
ConsenSys is planning to launch a rollup zk-EVM: http://consensys.net/blog/research-development/consensys-rd-launches-an-updated-and-expanded-zk-evm-version
⚡️ They have just opened applications to participate on their testnet. Be quick, they might be open for just a few hours:
🔗 https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc0mXdLiI7MjLNG4BfqzK4TAS7oCUnoQM5gqqI8GutKoJjQcA/viewform
Team member says there could be rewards
4/6
Infura is a infrastructure service from ConsenSys, powering web3 services and allowing developers to connect to the Ethereum network.
There is a rumour that $INFURA might be on its way.
Covered it here:
https://twitter.com/OlimpioCrypto/status/1570863149741666304
5/6
There was a (month old) early access program application to join the new "decentralized" infrastructure service that infura wants to build.
Here is the form, still works:
🔗 http://infura.io/resources/network/decentralized-infrastructure-network-early-access-program
Anyways, go to their discord to check how to get involved.
6/6
Summary:
ConsenSys owns MM & Infura, and is planning to launch its own zk-EVM rollup
• $MASK → bridge and swap using MetaMask
• zk-EVM → Fill Google Form and participate in ConsenSys testnet
• $INFURA → Fill form and get involved in their decentralized future vision
Sorry if anyone is stuck with liquidity at FTX. Let's hope it gets resolved, these have been bad days for the industry
We need to keep moving forward, that's why I am posting these news.
My advice would be to withdraw all crypto from all CEXes until there's more visibility

- Introduction to the Lens API
One of the reasons the Lens API is so powerful and flexible is because it uses GraphQL. In this video, I give a brief overview of how you can start using it and testing it out before you even start building your app.
- We're back for Day 2 at Devcon Bogotá and are excited to see all the amazing projects and speaker sessions happening here! If you're attending today, be sure to stop by our truck outside the conference venue. Say hi to our team and get some amazing Lens swag 💚
