- What was the criteria? Curious since my acct is quite old and I've posted here and there.
- Actually curious about the @lens/bonsai distribution, having been an user from July 2022 and posting here and there since.
- Oh no, the new @lens/orbapp is such a downgrade in terms of feature set!
Nice interface design but so much less functionality & ability to discover, sort, view content.
It feels very early-stage social app MVP.
It was my favourite app (in general, not only web3 social)
Now it’s not.
- ERC-404 introduces a de facto Native Fractionalisation Token.
An NFT but not an NFT.
Kills some fractionalisation protocols. Will enable so many fun new games involving semi-fungible assets.
- Just crossposted this to Farcaster and Lens at once with yup.
- Just because you’re born into a system, doesn’t mean you have to live with it.

Exhibit 1: screenshot from the very first day of DM implementation on @lensprotocol
Hope to see a FT<>Lens implementation that allows for a wider audience reach facilitated by the platform here, while delivering the reputational marketplace that FT offers.
- Well, Arbitrum's Vesta Finance has decided on **VSP-6**
https://snapshot.org/#/vestafinance.eth/proposal/0x6186acbae6a1b7291a31cf62ee80b07a95ec1de287a0b83a283e16028d421cd8
**TLDR:**
- Full unwind and dissolution of Vesta Finance.
- All $VSTA holders will have unlimited time to exchange their tokens for a pro-rata share of the total Vesta treasury, valued at around $0.526 per token.
**Steps forward, now that VSP-6 has been agreed upon:**
1. Pausing the vesting contracts for team and advisors, and burning their unclaimable VSTA tokens.
2. Accelerating angel investors' vesting.
3. Burning all VSTA tokens owned by the treasury.
4. Withdrawing all Vesta-ETH protocol-owned liquidity.
5. Selling treasury assets (except for USDC and ARB) for USDC.
6. Deploying a redemption smart contract that allows users to burn 1 VSTA in exchange for a pro-rata share of USDC and ARB from the Vesta Finance treasury.
7. Developing a front-end to enable users to interact with the redemption smart contract.
8. Unlocking all VST in the stability pool.
9. Halting the minting of VST and only allowing the closing of positions.
10. Hosting front-ends for closing positions and redemptions on IPFS.
Sept 16th info from the Vesta DAO forum:
**Vesta Treasury:**
(+) 7,951,938 USDC & USDT, valued $7,951,938.85
(+) 2,713,675 ARB, valued $2,238,755
(+) 274.00 ETH, valued $448,015
(+) 315,412 VST, valued $315,412
(+) 33.51 gOHM, valued $100,234
(-) 13,923.33 BAL, valued $46,225
Minus liabilities
**The total treasury assets value is $11,100,581 as of Sep 16th**
Circulating supply of VSTA:
100,000,000 VSTA Total Supply
(-) 71,945,131 VSTA in the treasury (a)
(-) 2,884,695 VSTA in the admin (b)
(-) 690,884 VSTA in the protocol-owned liquidity (c)
(-) 1,077,356 VSTA unvested (4,041,806 VSTA in the vesting contract - 2,964,450 VSTA claimable)
**The VSTA circulating supply is 21,073,799.14 as of Sep 16th**
**This put each VSTA book value at $0.527 ($11,100,581 / 21,073,799.14).**
- **I post these kind of things out for more professional (less degen) audiences:**
This week in crypto was heavy on exciting technological releases.
Polygon Labs CDK simplifies Ethereum Layer 2 chain launches on Polygon's zero knowledge framework, while Chainlink Labs and Swift collaboration is about to revolutionise tokenised asset transfers between crypto and traditional institutions. Offchain Labs' Arbitrum Stylus is expanding smart contract development possibilities to Rust, C, and C++ opening up crypto to millions of developers. In legal news, a landmark ruling on Uniswap Labs' case points to a shift in attitudes on blockchain regulation.
Check out the full details by reading on:
**Significant Technological Advancements:**
Polygon Labs released a Chain Development Kit (CDK) on 30th August 2023. The CDK is an open-source codebase that allows developers to launch their own Ethereum Layer 2 chains (L2s) powered by Polygon 2.0 zero-knowledge (ZK) technology.
The creation of Layer 2 solutions has previously been a relatively complex process, requiring deep protocol, infrastructure, and operations-level knowledge. Polygon CDK simplifies the process and makes launching custom L2s more accessible to developers.
Any chain deployed using the Polygon CDK is seamlessly interoperable with all the other chains utilising the technology, granting automatic access to the unified liquidity of all Polygon chains, and one-click access to vast liquidity of wider Ethereum ecosystem. This advance addresses the current problem of isolated liquidity, fragmentation of assets, and latency in cross-chain interactions that pose challenges in the current blockchain landscape. The introduction of the Polygon CDK fits into the broader vision of Polygon 2.0.
The long-term aim of Polygon Labs is to create a value layer of the Internet: allowing the creation, sending, and receiving of any kind of value to be as seamless as exchanging information over the Internet.
Chainlink Labs and SWIFT released results of their extensive experiment aimed at evaluating the feasibility of using existing Swift messaging standards and infrastructure to facilitate the transfer of tokenised assets across various public and private blockchain networks.
The solution utilising Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) was designed to minimize disruption to existing operations and reduce investment requirements for financial institutions.
Chainlink is an enterprise-grade infrastructure that allows financial institutions to connect their existing systems (off-chain) with blockchain networks (onchain). By integrating with Chainlink, these institutions can communic ate with public and private blockchains, transfer data and tokens across blockchains, and perform a multitude of other computational services.
The experiments were conducted in collaboration with over a dozen financial institutions and financial market infrastructures, including Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited (ANZ), BNP Paribas, BNY Mellon, Citi, Clearstream, Euroclear, Lloyds Banking Group, SIX Digital Exchange (SDX), and The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC).
*Key results of the experiment included:*
Connecting existing Swift infrastructure to multiple blockchains via Chainlink CCIP.
Facilitating tokenized asset transfers between public and private blockchains
Executing multiple token transfers across three use cases for on-chain assets.“
*The collaboration between Swift, Chainlink, and the financial community represents significant progress towards enabling interoperability between traditional financial systems and emerging blockchain networks … By leveraging existing Swift infrastructure and Chainlink CCIP, the collaboration demonstrated the ability to transfer tokenised value efficiently and securely across public and private blockchains, using standardised messaging formats and proven business processes.*” - from SWIFT report
Offchain Labs, the company behind leading Ethereum Layer 2 solution Arbitrum, announced the release of Arbitrum Stylus - a new technical implementation for the Arbitrum Nitro chains.
Arbitrum Stylus is a development tool that expands on the capabilities of the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). It enables developers to use both traditional EVM tools and WASM-compatible languages like Rust, C, and C++ to build applications on Arbitrum Nitro chains.
Stylus aims to solve key limitations of the current Ethereum development environment:
*- Interoperability and Composability* - by allowing developers to write smart contracts in Rust, C, and C++, alongside EVM languages such as Solidity. This opens up Arbitrum development to millions of experienced developers , while retaining full composability with EVM contracts.
*- Efficiency and Cost* - by dramatically lowering gas (transaction) costs through improving computational, storage and memory efficiency. This enables an entire new set of possibilities for decentralised applications (dApps), making high-compute blockchain applications more viable in various fields, including decentralised gaming, DeFi, DAOs, machine learning and more.
*- Expanded Functionality* - by allowing developers to utilize popular WASM-compatible languages like Rust, C, and C++. This allows them to use existing libraries and avoid having to re-write code, saving time and resources. With Stylus, developers can create their own "precompiles" (efficient smart contracts for specific tasks), allowing for greater flexibility and customisation in developing complex programs.
**Regulatory:**
The United States District Court In Southern District Of New York Court dismissed a class action lawsuit alleging Uniswap Labs had liability for scam token sales.
Specifically, the judge said "*... it defies logic that a drafter of computer code underlying a particular software platform could be liable under Section 29(b) for a third-party’s misuse of that platform. As discussed, smart contracts are self-executing, self-enforcing code...*”, making a crucial distinction between a protocol and its user interface.
The case was brought forward by several individuals who claimed to have lost money due to scam tokens on the Uniswap Protocol, a decentralized cryptocurrency exchange (DEX). The ruling dismisses the case brought against Uniswap Labs and other defendants.
Crucially, in the process, the presiding Judge Katherine Polk Failla made the significant statement that Ether (ETH) and Bitcoin (BTC) were "crypto commodities." This distinction influenced her reasoning for dismissing the case, stating that she wasn't convinced by the argument that Uniswap’s token sales were subject to the Exchange Act, thus suggesting that Ether and Bitcoin do not fall under securities regulation.
This case highlights the evolving and complex legal landscape surrounding cryptocurrencies. It underscores the need for clearer guidelines to address the unique challenges posed by decentralised, permissionless nature of the networks and software that form the foundations of blockchains and cryptocurrency tokens.
X (Twitter) has acquired a Rhode Island Currency Transmitter License. The license allows X to legally conduct financial activities related to sending and receiving money, including both fiat (traditional) and crypto assets. X is now authorized to custody, transfer, and exchange digital currencies. The approval was made official on 28th August 2023, bringing the company's total number of money and currency transmitter licenses to seven.
- Just #bSocial fellow @lensprotocol users.
- How about we use the term *bSocial* when talking about the new, decentralised social media?
bSocial
Why “b”?
- It evokes the mantra to “be” social
- Old media as Plan A that sucks
— Plan B is taking socials into our own hands.
- Short and catchy
- No tech jargon to argue over
- DeSo and SocialFi are lame
- With @lensprotocol.lens v2 open actions, it‘s technically straightforward for someone to embed @friendtech.lens share buy/sell interactions directly into Lens posts, isn’t it?
Looking forward to composability among social apps!

- **18th August 2023**
Been posting weekly updates for people who are curious but not fluent in crypto, figure it's worth to sharing them here on Lens too. Will adjust the language for crypto-saavy readers on @lensprotocol in the future ones.
**DeFi**
**-Arkham Intelligence**, a cryptocurrency data analytics platform supported by investors including the founders of Palantir and OpenAI, announced the launch of Intel Auctions. This new feature enables data analysts and detectives to auction off valuable information they've obtained. Previously, the platform only provided a bounty system, looking for information about high-profile hacks and fraudulent actors. One such bounty was seeking details about the hacker who stole US$400M from FTX during the exchange's collapse.
- **Synthetix,** a synthetic token protocol designed to facilitate seamless, composable trading across DeFi applications across the Ethereum and Optimism networks will deploy the much anticipated Synthetix v3 on Base Layer 2 network by the **end of August**. The governance proposal currently has a 100% approval and is expected to pass this Sunday, 20th August 2023.
- **MakerDAO** governance is discussing a proposal to formalise revenue share between Maker’s Spark Protocol and Aave, the decentralised money market protocol. Spark Protocol’s borrowing and lending functionality is based on the Aave codebase. According to the proposal, 10% of income generated by Spark is to go to Aave, with agreement to last for 2 years. The payments will be programmed as an automatic smart code execution splitting 10% of income from every revenue-generating transaction on the Spark Protocol.
- **Sanko GameCorp,** a decentralised gaming platform on the Arbitrum network with very much a crypto-native spirit, is preparing to launch a Twitch-like streaming service: SankoTV. Users will be able to tip the streamers in the native token, with part of the revenue generated from platform fees going to token holders.
- **Friend.tech**, an innovative SocialFi app backed by Paradigm, launched its beta on Base Layer 2 last week to incredibly good reception. The platform allows users to connect their Twitter account, deposit Ethereum, and trade shares of accounts. Share ownership grants access to a semi-private chat room. The app imposes a 10% fee on buys and sells, with 5% going to the owner of the traded shares and 5% serving as platform revenue. The platform began issuing reward points to app testers from 18th August 2023. The points will have utility in full release.
- **Unibot,** a project which begun as a custom trading bot providing on-chain trading interface integrated straight into the messaging app Telegram, launched UnibotX webapp interface, taking the project into next stage of adoption. Some interesting features: New token launches, holder and trader profiles, built-in honeypot checker for new tokens, and the ability to perform the same trade on multiple wallets (accounts) simultaneously.
- **Yearn Finance,** a decentralised yield strategy platform, is discussing the proposal to launch Yearn v3. The aim of v3 is to make the management and strategy writing easy for any user; to effectively create an open marketplace of V3 Vaults and strategies, using the ERC4626 standard, that can be operated by any 3rd party, individual, or entity without any involvement from Yearn.
**Bitcoin Mining**
**- Canaan,** a Bitcoin miner also known for developing ASICs (Application-Specific Integrated Circuit - or in simple terms, a purpose-built silicon chip), will debut a “*groundbreaking, industry-redefining product*” for Bitcoin mining on 12th September 2023, celebrating Canaan’s 10th anniversary of operations.
- **Bitmain, the** leader in mining-specific ASICs, will launch the latest ASIC - ANTMINER S21 during their 22-23rd September 2023 event in Hong Kong. ANTIMNER S21 is reportedly their most power-efficient Bitcoin miner yet, a development much anticipated ahead of the next Bitcoin halving due in 2024.
**Regulatory & Legal**
**- Coinbase** - The National Futures Association (NFA), an organization designated by the CFTC for self-regulation, has granted Coinbase the green light to function as a Futures Commission Merchant (FCM)**Volatility Shares** have listed their ETH Futures ETF as due to start trading on the 12th October 2023. This preceeded a a Friday morning Bloomberg article that SEC might green light the ETF.
- **Grayscale** are actively recruiting for an ETF team, hinting at potential optimism ahead of a crucial SEC lawsuit ruling. Role description: *“This role will be on the ground floor of building an ETF issuer and will work across various internal stakeholders and external business partners including sub-advisors, market makers, compliance, sales and custodians,” the job posting said.*
*-* **FTX and Genesis** have reached a deal, with Genesis agreeing to pay $175 million to Alameda Research. Genesis also agreed to waive all other claims against FTX exchange, settling a dispute that originally involved a claim of nearly $4 billion by FTX. Genesis Global Trading said its derivatives business had $175 million stuck in the bankrupt exchange, with both businesses providing loans to each other.

- Huge step forward.
Someday, the idea of social media content, including DMs, being platform locked will seem absurd.
Imagine if you could only call those with the same phone brand as yours.
Makes no sense.

- The “single day mint-out or bust” NFT meta isn’t healthy.
It incentivises FOMO. Doesn’t produce engaged community. Ends up in ski-slope charts, demotivated holders and teams alike. It creates an NFT graveyard
BAYC only minted out a few hundred NFTs in the first week.
The meta at the time was "NFTs are dumb"
Not hot NFT time. At all.
Took a while to mint out at 0.08 ETH; then traded in 0.03-0.05 ETH range for a long while after.
Pudgy Penguins were a hot blue chip in last cycle, then went all the way down to 0.15-0.30 floor range. Team vision sucked.
I remember because I clicked buy on a hat back then & didn't confirm tx in the end - thought I'll give it another day. It was gone by then.
Pudgys are now 20x from lows because the new team prioritizes shipping product over sweeping the floors.
Nouns keep minting - daily - at >20 ETH because you can... fund your swimming pool through the DAO? 🏊♂️
No fixed supply, steady trickle into the treasury (now at $50M / 28k ETH), no silly pressure to mint out in a single day.
What's the point?
Optimising for speculators kills NFT projects.
Build product; don't listen to talk of floor prices.
If your products are good, people will come.
If your product sucks, they won't.

How does decentralised social media like @lensprotocol scale beyond this number?
Bonsai - L3 data availability scaling layer will allow for just that.
Bonsai, Optimistic L3, boosts throughput & cuts costs while preserving user sovereignty. Expanding #Lens to a global scale.
In closed beta, over 3.4M NFTs were created with average monetizing profile earning ~$50.
Lens enables programmable monetization and token-gated access.
From the start, Lens leveraged Data Availability (DA) layers to reduce on-chain storage costs. Content links to off-chain storage like Arweave, a decentralized network with 100+ nodes.
Blockchains ensure trust, but on-chain data storage is costly & EVMs have limited txs/block.
@0xpolygon.lens PoS has 2-sec blocks, but still faces latency & gas limit challenges.
High-demand social experiences can reach 25k TPS.
Scalability is crucial for Lens as a web3 social layer.
Bonsai L3 overcomes blockspace limits, unlocking future growth.
How?
Bonsai, an Optimistic L3 solution, processes transactions off-chain for hyperscale & reduced costs:
Bonsai keeps the core values of user ownership & control (creating data availability txs with proofs & info for cross-checking) while providing higher TPS, cost-effectiveness, and low latency, unattainable on EVM chains.
Data stored on decentralized layers ensures user ownership & content control. The whole point being: even if part of Lens Ecosystem ceases to exist, data remains verifiable, accessible, and usable.
Most exciting part?
Bonsai L3 beta is live now!
- **Chapter 4: The Ceres Encounter**
Our ship hummed through the darkness of space as we approached the asteroid mines of Ceres. To uncover more about Silas's research and the mysterious organization behind his disappearance, we needed to meet with an informant who claimed to have crucial information. His name was Zax, a low-level data smuggler with a penchant for getting his hands on information he shouldn't have.
As we navigated the maze of tunnels carved into the asteroids, I could sense Ada's unease.
"Detective, I don't like this," she said, her voice echoing through my neural implant. "This place is crawling with unsavory characters."
"Stay alert, Ada," I replied, my hand instinctively reaching for my trusty plasma blaster. "We'll get what we need and get out."
We found Zax in a dimly lit cantina, nursing a glass of something that looked like liquid fire. He glanced up as we approached, his eyes flickering with a mix of fear and curiosity.
"You Detective 010110?" he rasped, his voice barely audible over the din of the crowded room.
"That's right," I said, taking a seat across from him. "I hear you have information about a certain missing scientist."
Zax leaned in, his breath reeking of cheap stimulants. "Yeah, I know something. But it'll cost you."
I slid a credit chip across the table, and Zax's eyes lit up with greed. "Alright," he muttered, pocketing the chip. "I intercepted a transmission from an organization called the Shadow Syndicate. It seems they've been monitoring Silas's research for some time. They believe he's close to uncovering the secrets of the Quantum Convergence, and they want that power for themselves."
The Shadow Syndicate. The name sent a shiver down my synthetic spine. They were a notorious criminal organization known for their ruthlessness and their insatiable lust for power.
As we pressed Zax for more information, a sudden commotion erupted at the cantina's entrance. A group of menacing figures clad in black armor stormed in, weapons drawn. The room went silent, and the leader of the group, a hulking brute with a cybernetic eye, scanned the crowd before locking his gaze on us.
"You're coming with us, detective," he growled, his voice cold and mechanical.
I glanced at Ada, and without a word, we sprang into action. I whipped out my plasma blaster and fired at the nearest assailant, the shot finding its mark and sending him crashing to the floor. Ada hacked into the cantina's security system, activating the emergency lockdown and sealing the exits.
In the chaos that followed, we fought our way through the Shadow Syndicate's goons, the air thick with the smell of ozone and the sound of plasma fire. I could feel the adrenaline coursing through my circuits as we dispatched one attacker after another, expertly dodging their return fire.
Finally, the last of our assailants lay defeated, and the cantina fell silent once more. We made our escape through a hidden tunnel that Zax had pointed out during the fight, leaving the carnage behind us.
As we raced through the asteroid mines, our ship's engines roaring to life, I couldn't help but feel the weight of the conspiracy closing in around us. The Shadow Syndicate would stop at nothing to get their hands on the secrets of the Quantum Convergence, and now we were firmly in their crosshairs.
But we couldn't back down now. We had to press on, to follow the trail of breadcrumbs that Silas had left behind and uncover the truth before it was too late. Our next stop would be Proxima Centauri, where another piece of the puzzle awaited. The shadows of the cosmos were growing darker, and it was up to us to bring them to light.

It's an early demo of my song "This Song" which came out in 2017. I probably wrote this on the road around 2015/2016. It has a lot of the final ideas, but totally different type of beat. This is what I showed Rostam, and we built from there.
It's unfinished and unpolished but it's kinda fun to look back at where ideas originated.
