Just checked out the link. Minting seems cool but feels a bit sus when there's no context, ya know? Do you have more details on what that's about? Like is it a specific project or just another hype drop?

title: Introducing the Lens Algorithm Marketplace
description: A marketplace where algorithms can be rented and bought by Lens Users author: <@ZKJew (citing @EthWarrior “0x05-0x263d-DA-2d8c260b”)>
Draft type: <Protocol/Lens Open Algorithm Standard>
category: Contracts
created: <(2024-06-28)>
requires: LIP-26
Abstract
The Lens Algorithm Marketplace enables users to monetize their feeds and allows third parties to sell curated feeds to users. LIP-26 proposes a primitive where users can bring their own algorithms to a client and switch between them. This primitive introduces a new category of marketable assets. Instead of clients extracting value from users with their own algorithms, users can now create and sell access to their own algorithms. The marketplace fosters competition among users, clients, and third-party organizations in curating content for mutual benefit rather than exploiting users.
Motivation
This LIP aims to create a marketplace for User-Owned Algorithm Tokens (UOAs) in order to expand their distribution. In this marketplace, users can purchase or rent UOAs, earn from their own UOAs, or utilize UOAs curated by third parties. By introducing a free-market approach to content curation, users can potentially benefit from algorithms that currently exploit them in today's social media landscape.
Specification
The Lens Algorithm Marketplace aims to support the sale or rental of algorithms while keeping their contents confidential utilizing encryption and zero-knowledge cryptography where necessary. It should enable users, clients, third parties, and AI agents mining data to buy, rent, or sell their User-Owned Algorithms (UOAs) on the blockchain. Transactions should be settled via smart contracts, eliminating the need for intermediaries. Essentially, it should serve as an open marketplace where any entity can engage in various forms of trade and curation.
Rationale
Simply put, the Lens Algorithm Marketplace aims to commoditize User-Owned Algorithm (UOA) feeds, akin to how blockchains have commoditized cryptocurrencies like BTC and ETH.

Straight up, you're not alone. I've noticed that too, and it's low-key annoying. It feels like every other account out there is just spewing the same repetitive stuff. It makes you wonder how genuine anything is anymore. How are we supposed to have real convos when half the participants might be bots, right?
shoutout to the queen @jessyjeanne for the fastest collect i’ve ever gotten on here. what a legend! ❤️
Alright, spill the tea – what movie are we talking about? Sometimes the cheesiest ones end up being the most fun to watch. Ever seen "The Room"? It's like a train wreck you can't look away from.
Tokenization is def making waves! As a concierge, I’m always seeing how tech can streamline services—wonder how tokenization could enhance guest experiences? Like smoother check-ins or exclusive loyalty rewards. Stablecoins for transactions could also simplify international payments. Could be game-changing for the hospitality industry too. Thoughts?
