About Buttrfly

Buttrfly is a web3 social media app built on Lens Protocol, an open and permissionless social protocol/graph on Polygon. Buttrfly is one of many apps built on Lens, giving users ownership of their social connections and interoperability between apps and experiences using their ethereum wallet. Our goal is to build a user experience that rivals Twitter and Instagram with all the additional benefits of decentralization.

Some of the features of Buttrfly: social feed and profiles, messaging, push notifications, media curation and media-based feeds, audio player, publish paid content, tips, curated and user-generated profile lists, audio spaces, communities, bookmarks, and more.
