It's here!

By now you hopefully know we’re not afraid to get a little 𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴 experimental.

We’re happy to pave the way for more fun in social apps, continuing with Orb V3. Here’s what we’re doing:

Çlµß Jåm§ 💬
Keep your members in the loop. Private group discussions for clubs.

Wₕᵢₛₚₑᵣ ᵢₙ ₜₕₑ ₐᵢᵣ 🌬️ 🫧
A new way to chat. Exchange live messages seen without hitting send. Type, erase, type, erase. When you’re ready for everyone’s eyes, hit send.

▀▄▀▄▀▄Creator Stickers▄▀▄▀▄▀
We’re really excited about this one for creators. A “like” isn’t real support. Other web3 platforms give you a fraction of what they first promised. We’re trying to do things a little differently.

We’re removing likes and adding custom reaction stickers made by creators for even more ways to capture value in your avenues of expression. Best of all, holders and referrals are rewarded too. We feel it’s more fun to earn with your friends.

And ownership? Well…

We’re beyond delighted to work with @storyprotocol to support IP ownership for all sticker creators. This will enable creators to license their stickers for use both inside and outside Orb, providing clarity on usage rights and ensuring fair distribution of rewards for creators when their content is shared or reused.

So where are we going to put all this excitement?

A new sticker pack every two hours for 30 hours on @zksync! Starting at $1 USDC, with incremental increases after each purchase. Sticker holders are also rewarded from a group pool, ‘cause like we said, it’s more fun to earn with your friends :)

For the first sticker pack, we’re happy to introduce ORBBRO, your new monkeycorn friend. He’s not perfect, and maybe he’s a little weird, but we love him because he doesn’t try to be anything but himself, just like us :)

We’ll be tweeting more about the creators, and their packs, as they are released - stay tuned.

As with all new features we ship, our hope is that these enhance your experience, unlock new features & possibilities, and encourage you to deepen your engagement in Orb’s universe of experiments and cool tools we work with.

Let us know what you think! 🦄
