The decentralized social graph protocol, Lens Protocol, announced on Wednesday (15th) that it will develop a social network called “Lens Network” using the modular open-source framework ZK Stack with zkSync. This network will support decentralized social spaces designed for large-scale adoption and will be able to handle synchronous real-time transactions while ensuring data integrity.
In an article, Lens stated that Lens Network will initially launch on an Ethereum-secured EVM-compatible Validium chain and will transition to the Volition network constructed using ZK Stack in a three-stage launch process to enhance transaction security and user control.
Validium and Volition are blockchain scaling solutions that utilize zero-knowledge proofs, but they have different security assumptions.
Both Lens and the lending protocol Aave are developed by Avara. Stani Kulechov, the founder of Avara, stated that Lens Protocol is a social graph that can be used to build decentralized community media. On this platform, NFTs representing user profiles can interact with decentralized applications in their ecosystem. Lens Protocol currently uses the Polygon POS chain for transaction settlement and has previously developed a scaling solution called Momoka.
Lens stated that the new version of Lens Protocol will be developed and launched on Lens Network, serving not only as a shared social network but also as a cross-chain protocol that hosts its primary hub on Lens Network through zkSync. Instances of the new version of Lens Protocol can also be deployed on other EVM networks (and non-EVM networks).
