From 0 to almost 30K Lens subscribers.

UFO launched a podcast in September. Onchain media and web3 social are key aspects of what we do. Mostly publishing on Mirror, Lens and Twitter.

Today we are releasing this free NFT for the first 30,000 UFO subscribers on Lens. A way to record that you were here. The last in a series.

We made the NFTs with Coinvise and also helped create a new integration with Mirror. For the first time anywhere you can mint the NFT right here in this post.

You can also subscribe to UFO on Lens within the embed to claim the airdrop. These integrations will now be available for everyone to use.

What an almost-year it’s been for UFO on Lens. We’re super appreciative of the invitation to broadcast and create in this ecosystem.

The Lens team has supported UFO since before the podcast went to air. They are sponsors of the show, building together, IRL friends at this point.

We’re only just getting started. An open social protocol for developers is the setting that empowers innovation towards a new internet. What you see is a constant evolution of technology and creativity. This is why we’re here. 

Late 2022 UFO contributed with Lens in a cohort-based program for creatives such as musicians, writers, podcasters, and artists exploring how to play with web3. Sharing experiments with collectible posts, NFT mints, live video, music NFTs, token-gated content, community spaces. There is a happening creators community which is cool.

At ETH Tokyo in April, Nick and Ivano from UFO picked up a Lens Top 10 prize in the hackathon for Watch Party. Allowing creators to stream live, establish a catalog, access video on demand content and embed in their own websites.

There was high interest to build on Lens. We saw Nader and Christina heroically judging more than 48 teams over a few hours.

We wrapped our time in Japan with a simple announce.
