Lens Protocol officially releases version V2, adding support for external smart contracts and other features

ChainCatcher news, the Web3 social protocol Lens Protocol officially released its V2 version during the Ethereum Paris EthCC conference, focusing on "openness and composability, shared interests, trust, and security." Users can now perform external smart contract operations directly within Lens publications, while Lens V2 has added the capability to interact with smart contracts within social media.

The new version of Lens Protocol also integrates the platform with the ERC-6551 token standard, allowing NFT ownership to be attached to other assets and interact with applications. New third-party contract operation permissions include adding whitelist functionality, minting NFTs on Sound.xyz (Ethereum mainnet), and minting NFTs on Opensea (Polygon), among others.

Additionally, Lens Protocol has introduced asset management features: including delegating operations to any wallet, meaning users can perform operations using other wallets, not limited to a single wallet; storing profiles directly on hardware wallets, which can be used in another wallet; and the new version supports storing DAO or community profiles in multi-signature wallets, which can be accessed from one or multiple addresses. This ensures the security and access control of profiles and allows multiple addresses to be associated with them, etc. (source link)
