Today, we are unveiling the details of Lens Protocol V2, which bring us closer to our vision of an open and decentralized social layer for the web. When we began building Lens, we wanted to inspire a new generation of social use cases, experiences and collective value share models that benefit all social media stakeholders – builders, users, creators and brands. We recognize that to create this type of positive, virtuous circle in which everyone benefits, Lens must be highly composable – a tw...

The Lensverse is constantly evolving with new features and improvements. In this post, we'll take a look at some of the new features that have been released in the past few months and will also look at some of our recent community events. Whether you're a seasoned Lensverse user or just starting out, there's something for everyone! So without further ado, let's dive in!
Live on Lenster.xyz today, See Through Lens is a new discovery feature which allows you to view another person's feed 👀 – giving you an insight into how they see the Lensverse
Discover new content and profiles
Explore Lens 🌿 through a new Lens 🕵️🕵️♂️
We released a new Developer Quickstart guide. It’s the easiest way to get up and running as a developer on Lens. In this guide, we show devs how to build a full-stack web application with Next.js, Tailwind CSS, and Lens Protocol in 15 minutes.
https://docs.lens.xyz/docs/developer-quickstart
The Degrees of Separation module, which has already been implemented in Lenster and Orb, gives users full control over their data and social experience. When posting any user-generated content, you can determine who sees it, comments on it, collects it, or mirrors it. Enforced at the smart contract layer, this new module relies on a decentralized, community-driven approach to enhance the experience for all. We look forward to seeing more applications adopt the Degrees of Separation module in the coming months.
We have created a new testnet called Sandbox where you can develop and test your Lens modules. Check out the developer docs below to learn how to create your own modules.
https://docs.lens.xyz/docs/creating-a-module
Got an idea for a new app, get involved here:
https://lensverse.canny.io/ideas
Developers wishing to whitelist a module to the Lens Protocol should provide information and documentation about the Module. Below is a short summary of the relevant requirements and criteria:
General
Testnet
Mainnet
Additional questions about the whitelisting process or guidelines should be sent to onchain-request@lens.xyz.
Explore the amazing apps built on top of Lens Protocol.
