### Nodle Partners with Lens Protocol 🤝🏼

[Nodle](https://www.nodle.com/), a decentralised wireless network utilizing smartphones as nodes, is making waves by partnering with Lens Protocol. This collaboration aims to enhance content authenticity in the evolving world of social networks.

**What’s the Deal?** 👀

[Nodle Network](https://www.nodle.com/) connects devices using its innovative "proof of connectivity" method, allowing smartphone users to earn **$NODL** tokens by sharing their bandwidth and resources. This system not only creates a vast digital trust network but also supports critical applications for authenticating media.

In this partnership, Nodle’s [Click app](https://clickapp.com/) (new mobile app to fight misinformation) will integrate with Lens Protocol, enabling users to share authenticated content —dubbed “Deep Reals”—on Lens.

Plus, _Clicks_ shared to Lens will be implemented as [Lens Frames](https://github.com/defispartan/lens-frames), from the Open Frames standard.

**Why It Matters** 🤔

This partnership is a game-changer for content creators and consumers alike. By allowing “Deep Reals” to be shared on Lens, users can engage with verified content while maintaining ownership.

Click supports the [Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity](https://c2pa.org/) (C2PA) and is a member of the Adobe-led [Content Authenticity Initiative](https://contentauthenticity.org/) (CAI) ensuring that users can trust what they see.

With both [Nodle](https://www.nodle.com/) and Lens migrating to ZKsync's Elastic Chain, deeper integrations and improved interoperability are on the horizon. As the digital landscape shifts, having verified content becomes increasingly crucial for fostering trust in social networks.

**Our Takes** 🤓

As Nodle and Lens join forces, they are setting the stage for a new standard in verified media. This collaboration not only enhances the experience but also empowers everyday users to share their stories with authenticity.

### TMB Spaces Updates

Last Wednesday at TMB Spaces was a blast! Stanislav joined us and dropped some serious wisdom, with loads of OGs in the building!

Stanislav shared his journey and what excites him about Monniverse.

He also spilled the beans on key takeaways from ETH CC and Lens AFK events, and how networking and meeting "online frens" RIL are for him the most important part of these events

Navigating all this new tech isn’t easy, but Stanislav shared challenges and exciting opportunities ahead.

His advice for newcomers? Stanislav gaves us not only his advices, but also a comprehensive list of resources to go-to, plus showed us how being genuine and having a purpose is important to grow in the space.

Thanks to all who tuned in, and shoutout to Carla, Yakuza, and James for co-hosting.

We’re taking a summer break for 2 weeks - we'll be back stronger, refreshed and with new ideas and formats! See you soon Fam 💗

### **Beer Smart Auction on Lens** 🍻

This week beer’s article is slightly different, and we’re fired up with it!

[Paolo](https://hey.xyz/u/magnifying) from our Orb Beer Club just dropped some exciting news: he’s launching Lens’ very first beer smart auction 🎉

Paolo’s brew, dubbed “Old German Altbier,” is making waves with its bold flavors – think strong roast with a decadent dark chocolate finish. This isn’t just any beer; it’s a limited edition 0.5 L bottle, shipped within the EU for your sipping pleasure.

Initially, Paolo thought about creating a 1/1 $BONSAI collectible for his brew, but thanks to Yakuza’s idea, he’s taking it up a notch with a smart auction on Orna! 🚀

Bidding kicks off in two weeks once the beer reaches its peak yumminess.

But hold up, folks! Before you bid, a quick disclaimer straight from Paolo himself: “This beer is not for drinking! Legal stuff, you know? Just collect it, don’t sip it.” 😄

This is more than just beer – it’s Lens history in the making. It’s about hanging out with your online mates, sharing a laugh, and maybe even get into the Lens RWA books.

Join the fun and place your bids in 12 days at Orna Art: [https://orna.art/c/0x5c22-0xa8](https://orna.art/c/0x5c22-0xa8)

Cheers to that 🍻
