Description
Lens is a full-stack platform for building SocialFi (social and financial) experiences. It provides developers with a suite of tools and infrastructure to create onchain social applications. Key components include the Lens Chain, a high-performance, cost-effective, and scalable chain optimized for SocialFi, which uses GHO for stable and low transaction costs and is secured by Ethereum. Lens also offers modular social primitives such as smart accounts (signless and gasless), global or dedicated usernames, shared or custom social graphs, customizable feeds, and groups with custom membership rules. Another feature is Grove, an onchain-controlled storage solution ensuring users own their content. The platform aims to simplify user onboarding with options like email or phone number sign-ups and ensures data portability between applications. Lens is part of Avara and collaborates with a wide ecosystem of partners including Circle, Uniswap, Chainlink, MetaMask, and others, providing builders with access to best-in-class infrastructure from partners like Alchemy, The Graph, and Tenderly.Grant Funding
