Mask Founder Responds to Lens Takeover: No Clear Coin Issuance Plan Yet, Will Support Prediction Markets and Multichain
BlockBeats News, January 21st, Mask founder Suji Yan responded today in an interview with BlockBeats regarding the takeover of Lens:
1. To be precise, Mask did not consider acquiring the Lens protocol. After long discussions, the wording chosen was "steward," which is more like a leadership role.
2. Stani (Lens founder) will focus more on Aave's DeFi business in the future and will serve as an advisor within Lens.
3. In future product development, Lens will adhere to an open principle, such as supporting multi-chain, multi-language, and prediction market support.
4. Lens does not have a clear coin issuance plan. We do not want users to interact just for rewards, do not encourage gaming the system, and promote genuine social interaction.
