In the evolving ecosystem of Lens Protocol, a groundbreaking addition has emerged— t2.world, a hub that aims to redefine social interaction through the power of reading and writing.
What's New? 😲
The t2 x Lens collaboration invites users to activate their t2 accounts using their Lens/@handle. A simple three-step process syncs the t2 profile with Lens, qualifies users through mirrored posts on Lens, and activates accounts with a quick email submission. This streamlined onboarding sets the stage for an exciting journey into the world of t2.
What's the Backstory?
At t2 (time²), the mission is to construct a transparent, decentralised, and collaborative social network that revolves around the act of reading and writing. The platform captures the time users spend reading to cultivate meaningful content, align incentives, and empower content-driven communities. Built on the pillars of truth, creativity, and knowledge, t2 embraces humane curation by real people, removing manipulative algorithms from the equation.
Why It Matters? 😊
T2 believes in the value our attention brings to our lives, the power of humane curation to eliminate manipulative algorithms, the promise of a social network that truly values its users, and the recognition of contributions with aligned incentives and fair rewards. I
In essence, t2 breaks the boundaries between readers and writers through socialisation and open collaboration. By creating a network of shared knowledge and collective creativity, t2 strives to make information more accessible and network content more relevant, creating value born out of our shared encounters.
As t2 unfolds its decentralised cultural clubs, offering common ground for content communities to form and grow, brings the ownership of content to its users 🤝
The introduction of Time Points (t.p.) further incentivises meaningful interactions between readers and writers, creating a dynamic ecosystem where attention is rewarded rather than held hostage.

There's a buzz around the introduction of points on Lens Protocol and other onchain apps, with various opinions surfacing. Some see points as a way to manage user relationships and incentivise desired actions, while others express skepticism, questioning the compatibility of points with the essence of Web3.
What's up?
Several Lens team members, including Bradley Freeman, share diverse perspectives on points. Bradley emphasizes that points are not akin to speculative assets like stocks but serve as tools for user engagement. Additionally, JamFrens and t2.world have already implemented points, each offering unique ways to earn and utilise them. Not to mention Phaver, that were ages ahead on this matter!
Why should you care?
Points raise debates about their utility and potential risks in onchain ecosystems. While they offer incentives for user engagement and contribution, some argue that points, along with KYC requirements, deviate from the decentralised principles of Web3. It's crucial to explore how points align with the ethos of blockchain and whether they enhance or compromise user experiences.
So, now what?
Nothing so far 😂 But.....The discussion around points in onchain apps is on fire, reflecting the engagement nature of decentralised platforms. As Lens Protocol and other projects may experiment with this feature, it's an opportunity for users to share their views.
