Social Media Protocol Lens Acquires NFT Mobile Game Sonar

Lens Protocol, the blockchain-based social media project from DeFi lender Aave, has acquired Sonar, a mobile app whose users pilot NFT-linked avatars through digital worlds. Players can log into the Sonar game using Lens. It is reported that Sonar claimed to have 20,000 monthly active users and thousands of NFTs owners.

Along with the acquisition, the startup's executives will join Aave to build its mobile consumer-facing social applications powered by Lens, with other Web3 consumer applications launching in 2023.
