On Dec 18, 2024, Lens announced a $31M strategic raise led by Lightspeed Faction [[20]](#src-20). In November 2025, Hey.xyz, one of the main Lens clients, stopped active development [[22]](#src-22). On Jan 20, 2026, Mask Network became the steward of Lens, and Avara (Aave Labs) moved to a technical advisory role [[21]](#src-21). No native payment program appears in the sources reviewed: any income depends on the clients (apps) built on the protocol. In October 2026, the protocol is maintained under Mask Network's leadership, and no recent official activity figure was found.
