We've renamed Shares to 𝗞𝗲𝘆𝘀. The original name was a placeholder during development and we think Keys better illustrates their purpose as in-app items used to unlock your friends' chatrooms htt

Admin and ownership parameters have been set to 0x000...000 to prevent any changes to their fees or functionality in the future. This change does not affect the separate web client operated at friend.tech which will continue to function as is. No fees from either

Stoked to partner with @0xRacer and @shrimppepe. The most exciting crypto-native social apps might look nothing like Web2 analogs. After seeing Stealcam, we knew they were the team we wanted to explore with.
