Over 50 applications have already debuted on the social media protocol which include Lenster, Lens Booster, SpamDAO, GoldenCircle, PeerStream, Swapify, Social Link, and others.
<blockquote><em>“The social media experience has remained relatively unchanged for the last decade, and much of that is due to your content being solely owned by a company, which locks your social network within one platform,” Stani Kulechov, CEO and founder of Aave Companies commented at the launch.</em></blockquote>
<h2>Providing Full Ownership to Users</h2>
Lens Protocol provides users with the foundations to leverage full ownership over their “profile, content, and relationships” while plugging into any decentralized application.

Instead of traditional social media accounts that rely on email ids and a unique username, Lens Protocol makes use of crypto addresses and NFTs for authentication and monetization purposes. This essentially puts users, rather than a centralized company, in control of the content and personal data associated with accounts.
