Lens Protocol goes permissionless

Lens Protocol has officially gone permissionless! This means anyone can get their own profile and start using any of the onchain social apps building on Lens—no more waiting list!

Stani Kulechov of Avara, the parent brand of Lens, emphasizes this as a key step in evolving towards full decentralization. The transition allows for unrestricted development on Lens’ social graph and identity profiles, encouraging wider community participation and engagement.

Built on Polygon, Lens Protocol leverages NFTs to empower users with ownership of their social content, setting a new standard in how social media platforms operate.

With this change, Lens Protocol is poised to center itself in user autonomy and creative freedom.
