Lens Chain chain
Overview
The team behind Lens Protocol, a social graph project created by Aave founder Stani Kulechov, has introduced Lens Chain, a layer-2 blockchain tailored for decentralized social applications. The network employs the zkSync stack for zero-knowledge scaling, relies on Avail for data availability, and secures itself via Ethereum. Gas fees on the chain can be settled using GHO, the stablecoin from the Aave ecosystem, which provides predictable transaction costs. Lens Chain debuted concurrently with Lens V3, a modular framework featuring an onchain rules engine and account abstraction, migrating approximately 125GB of existing social data and its user base onto the new chain.
Within The Counterparty graph, Lens Chain connects to 10 tracked entities, most strongly to Ethereum, Lens Protocol, Ethereum.
