On Thursday, Elon Musk announced on Twitter that the "Super Follows" feature would be rebranded as "Subscriptions." This feature will enable users to subscribe to exclusive content produced by other users, which can be long-form videos, texts, and Spaces for subscribers. Subscribers will be granted special badges as well. Elon Musk disclosed that he would provide his exclusive "subscriptions" for $4 per month, in which his followers could "ask-me-anything" questions every few weeks.

In 2013, my album OUT OF THE BLACK was released. In celebration of 10 years, I'll be releasing an NFT capsule collection of rare and reimagined digital works from the OOTB universe starting with this unreleased song „Vocode“.
„Vocode“ was a track I made during the „Out Of The Black“ album process, you can hear similarities to „Rocky 2“ or „Touch It“ and it’s got that banging vibe from my classic „& Down“. I played it out in clubs in the early 10’s, but decided not to include it in the album.
If you love the sound from that time, here’s something special from the vaults that would have been lost to history For the next 3 days this banger can be collected exclusively via Sound.xyz

🤓 Going to Mainnet: What it Means 🤓
TalentLayer is going live on mainnet! That means all our smart contracts we’ve been working so hard on will be officially deployed.
All TalentLayer Core functionality will be live when we deploy! Check out our different contracts here to learn about what each of them accomplish for the platforms building on our infrastructure.
TalentLayerPlatformID: Marketplace configuration (fees, dispute, access)
TalentLayerID: Worker and hirer identity
TalentLayerReview: Mutual review after job completion
TalentLayerService: Universal services & proposals system
TalentLayerEscrow: Escrow & dispute systems
See our deployments here. When we go live on mainnet, you’ll be able to see a new file, polygon.json, in talentlayer-contracts/.deployment/.
Last week Monday we deployed the final versions of these contracts to Mumbai Testnet and since then our first cohort of work marketplaces have been plugging them into their platforms.
That was a lot of tech talk. Now let’s get into the fun stuff.

👩 Minting TalentLayer IDs 👩
Tomorrow at 4:04 PM UTC minting will open for TalentLayer IDs! If you claimed your TalentLayer ID over the past few weeks this is your time to shine — only early claimers will be whitelisted for this mint!
ℹ️ Where do I mint?
TalentLayer ID Minting opens at 4:04 PM UTC. Here’s the website where minting will happen.
ℹ️ Who can mint on April 4th, 2023?
Whitelist Minting Period: 4/4–4/14 During these weeks, users who claimed their TLID during the Early Claiming Period AND all Lens Protocol handle holders will be given priority minting! Mint your TLID before everyone else.
Open Access Minting: 4/14 On 4/14 at 4:14 PM UTC we will remove the whitelist for minting TalentLayer IDs and anyone will be able to mint!
🚨 ALERT: @LensProtocol frens and any early claimers! If you don’t mint your @TalentLayer ID that is being reserved by 4/14 it will be claimable by others! Mark your calendars and don’t loose your handle!
ℹ️ How much will normal TalentLayer IDs cost?
We’ll have a 1 MATIC mint fee for 5+ character TalentLayer IDs. Specialty TalentLayer IDs are between 1 and 4 characters long — these are available for purchase at the price rates below.
If you want to mint a TalentLayer ID but can’t afford the fees, DM us on Twitter. We want to hear your story and maybe we can help.
ℹ️ Can I buy multiple TLIDs?
You can only have 1 TLID in a wallet — it’s impossible to mint more than one into one wallet. You can own different TLIDs in different wallets though.
ℹ️ Can I trade TalentLayer IDs?
TalentLayer ID’s are Activity Bound NFTs — they are transferable until they are used to make any activity on TalentLayer. Activities include creating a job post, submitting a proposal, and other actions. Once a TalentLayer ID becomes active, they become soul-bound and can not be transferred. For non-active TalentLayer IDs, you can trade them on any major NFT marketplaces, like Opensea for example.

If you would like to support Coin Center
and @davidsm.lens 's campaign ( lenster.xyz/posts/0x212f-0x0d ) but don't have WETH at hand, I put 1 NFT (#5) for sale on @lensport.lens (for 3.3 WMATIC, should be pretty exact 0.002 WETH).
pls let me know if you would like to support Coin Center in WMATIC then I will continue bridging #bridgoooor.
Follow is a strong signal, to keep your feed interesting, follow only profiles you really want to see on your feed. My thumb rule is that I follow a profile after I stumble upon the profile three times and the content is interesting. Following everyone on Lens is pointless.
