Improvements in this release

🛠️ Simplified integration for React web apps. Install and import from [localhost:3000/u/lens-protocol/react-web](@lens-protocol/react-web%60) with less configuration.
🔐 Token-gated support: You can now create encrypted posts and comments which can only be read by users that match the criteria you define.
🪪 Active profile is automatically wired as the Observer ID of all relevant queries. Doing so the Lens SDK provides a cohesive view of the data that is relevant to the eye of the Active Profile.

The way @beatsapp.lens is crushing our own high scores for independent musicians every week just blows my mind.

Music is definitely social I think we’ve proven that over and over. For everyone who’s still in doubt to wether Music on Lens is here to stay…

I think me and the team have shown countless times we’re just getting started 😎 + we def got the strongest music community on Lens by milessss

ARB distribution model was designed by Nansen 🔵 🦅

+2,300,000 addresses bridged to Arbitrum before the snapshot.

Online 625,143 were eligible for ARB. Only around 30%!

What can we learn from their report?

5 key take-aways so you don't get excluded from airdrops ⚡

1/5

Eligibility Criteria:

• Conducted transactions: number, value, and time thresholds

• Arbitrum Nova: bridging & conducted transactions

• Dapps and Governance activity

• Liquidity providing

💡 Take-away: the more different activities, the better. Be active!

2/5

USD Value. I know this is a given, but it's important to stress out.

• The majority of wallets transact on small USD amounts

• The majority of wallets got small airdrops (USD value terms)

💡 Take-away: more volume = bigger airdrop. But you didn't need to be a whale to get it!

3/5

The number of transactions

• The majority of the wallets made 1-2 transactions (1M+ wallets)

• Only 100k wallets made 50-100 transactions

Median = 3

Average = 28

💡 Take-away: more transactions = more valuable airdrop.

Become a recurring user.

4/5

Sybil wallets:

• The Arbitrum Foundation wanted to exclude sybil wallets from getting the $ARB airdrop

• Sybil wallets = wallets with similar/fake activity, with the pure intention of hunting for an airdrop

• 172k wallets excluded

💡 Take-away: be user, not a "hunter"

5/5

Negative criteria ⚠️

This is a new concept: some actions subtracted points, i.e. they hurt the user's individual points to get ARB.

These users got less ARB:

• All transactions in a 48h period

• Interacted with only 1 smart contract

• Low ETH balance in Snapshot day

There's a lot more data in their official report.
