As per the latest post from Stani Kulachov on X, the team is planning to release a new set of innovative smart contracts on the decentralised social media platform. Some of the new features they are going to focus on are enhancing their Social platform with feeds, groups, graphs, and username rules features.
Releasing new versions of ERC20 and ERC71 contracts are other noteworthy features included with new contracts. Furthermore, ICOs/crowdfunding, novel bonding curves, governance, point systems, and earn programs are some of their additional features. Since all of these developments are open source, Stani Kulachov invited interested developers to expedite the smart contract release process.
The Lens Protocol aims to be on the frontlines when it comes to SocialFi development. It recently closed a $31 million strategic raise in a funding round led by Lightspeed Faction. This substantial investment helps Lens Network development to offer a user-friendly, cost-effective, and secure platform. With the latest strategic raise and plans to launch new contracts, Lens Network strives toward mainstream adoption of Web3 SocialFi.
