There is an interesting AI problem that exists on Lens (and widely on social networks):
Lens is an open social network, which means that anyone can create a profile by paying $10 to secure the profile onchain. There are no restrictions on the network level. The network is fully open for participation or building on. It's an unopinionated layer.
There are opinionated apps and algorithms built on the application layer. Moderation and curation exist exactly on this level, and users can choose which apps and algorithms they want to use without platform lock-in.
Now that the @AaveAave Community is preparing for Aave Protocol V3 deployment for Ethereum market 👻 its good time to review why V3 as a flexible architecture is much appreciated 👇🏼
The @AaveAave V3 was deployed earlier this year across various networks including Polygon, Avalanche and L2s such as Arbitrum and Optimism as a cross-chain strategy.
For context, Aave V1 was launched on main-net back in January 8, 2020 right before the DeFi summer and accelerated to $1 Billion TVL within 6 months. Bringing also flashloans adoption into DeFi. ⚡️
Most exciting thing to see on @LensProtocol dev community is how all these various apps are building together 🌿🤝🌿
Apps like @lensterxyz@phaverapp@orbwagmi and @0xOnboard are all in the same Telegram group sharing their progress, ideas and takes on web3 social. If you are building a bigger app on Lens - feel free to DM to join the group 🚀
Lens community was present at numerous hackathons from LFGrow to ETHOnline seeing til today hundreds of hackers coming together to hack around Lens, see some of the submissions here ethglobal.com/showcase 🚀
Yesterday @LensProtocol announced the CultivatorDAO (👩🌾,👨🌾) to establish community driven content curation for Trust & Safety. Going to share our vision below on how we see the web3 social stack evolve 🧵
First, @LensProtocol is a decentralized social media protocol that acts as a registry to point content and followers. Users can link to any content which can be stored on-chain & off-chain. Most of the content is off-chain (stored in IPFS or Arweave etc).
The Protocol is flexible enough to link the content even to a private cloud or to a self-hosted environment. This is an interesting use case for follower and token gated content. It's up to the applications and users to choose how they use Lens Protocol.
