Lens

Lens is a decentralized social media protocol that enables the creation of composable social networks on the blockchain, allowing creators to take ownership of their content and social connections across the decentralized internet. The protocol provides infrastructure where users maintain a single portable identity and social graph that can be used across any application built on Lens, including Orb, a web3 social app with over 800,000 downloads, and Firefly, a desktop and mobile app for web3 natives. The ecosystem includes diverse applications such as Palus for activity tracking, Mailens for email, Hey for social payments, Lensie for NFT marketplaces, Cantuum for music, Grove Drive for file storage, and 0xfm for onchain radio. Lens is part of MaskDAO, building onchain products with thousands of users and millions of social connections globally. Founded in 2014 and headquartered in Venice, California, Lens has raised $46 million in Series B funding from investors including FTX, General Catalyst, IDEO CoLab, Variant Fund, Blockchain Capital, and A.Capital Ventures.
