built a waitlist mint that looks innocuous, like just a micro site for creators using AI to shake up print & apparel making at the physical equipment & co-op studio space level
but really, it’s a first step to more resources, for more autonomy, where creators can go to not just go alone
I think a lot about how a synth gets generated, where GPU credits come from, work becomes a mint, gets made into tangible goods people like and want, and breaks the subtle control algorithms have over that fulfillment layer
do we talk about it enough? where crypto, NFTs, web3, lens collects, all this stuff crosses over into atoms, metal, circuits, fabric, trading, buying and where we do our best creative work?
anyway, I made a free mint for anyone that wants to talk about it more.
maybe we’ll do a podcast
this week on lens. edition 1 🥳
gm gm ☀️ please share your #lens highlights of calendar week 21 in the comments :-).
LENS PSA: IF YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO COMMENT, LIKE, OR COLLECT POSTS THAT COME FROM MOMOKA, PLEASE COMMENT BELOW AND TAG @wagmi.lens 👇
PROBLEM:
There seem to be a ton of quality users that are being prevented from interacting with posts that originate on Momoka. It appears that if accounts are not verified with Momoka they cannot comment, like, or collect posts that originate on that layer, ie. there are now two different communities on Lens -> those that can interact on Momoka and those that cannot. Since this is a “collectable” posts it should be on Polygon and everyone should be able to interact with it.
I am also tagging a few other related devs, perhaps you can bring it up in your next roundtable, it would be great to know that someone is aware and looking for a solution 🙏

Scaling Decentralized Social with Stani Kulechov | The Edge Podcast
Stani Kulechov is the Founder of Aave and Lens protocols.
In this episode of The Edge Podcast, we interview the legendary DeFi founder Stani Kulechov. Having built Aave into one of the world's largest DeFi protocols with an all-time high of $30B TVL, Stani made the bold move in 2021 to jumpstart another wildly challenging Web3 startup that would deliver a self-sovereign alternative to social media–called Lens.
Lens is a decentralized composable social layer. You can think of it as "not your keys, not your follower graph" and it has proven to be the most foundational lego in the decentralized social stack jumpstarting a Web3 alternative to apps like Twitter or YouTube. Stani joins us to talk about their recently announced scaling solution for decentralized social called Momoka.
