The LUKSO Foundation for the New Creative Economies (FNCE) Introduces its Next Phases
LUKSO’s Foundation, now called FNCE (short for Foundation for the New Creative Economies), published a medium post covering their personnel, mission, strategic pillars, and much more. The post is about an 8 minute read but lucky for you, Sage at KEEZ put together a blog post covering the TLDR and main takeaways from the post.
For the sake of information sharing, here are some of the most important points made:
1. FNCE Mission: FNCE aims to foster innovation and creativity within the LUKSO ecosystem, focusing on social, cultural, and creative applications by providing resources and support to developers.
2. Resources: The Foundation states that it has the resources to fund core development and community for the next years, ensuring stability and growth
3. Strategic Pillars: The Foundation’s pillars are technological leadership, ecosystem development, marketing and brand building, and community engagement.

$LYX Featured by AltcoinDaily as a Top Coin for 2025
Last week, AltcoinDaily posted to their 1.6 million twitter followers a video and short thread about why $LYX is a token to look out for in the SocialFi category. Awesome to see a huge influencer page like this adding $LYX to its tokens to look out for. Was it a paid ad? not sure, probably. But regardless, good to see.
LUKSO Reopened their Official Telegram in Light of the LUKSO Foundation Information
It’s been months if not years since the official LUKSO telegram was shut down and handed to the community. But it seems in response to some community criticism, Foundation information releases, and an effort to communicate with token holders, the Telegram channel is back. Join in to communicate with everyone circulating LUKSO including the core tech team and the Foundation.
LUKSO formed a new strategic partnership with Pastel Network.
LUKSO‘s NFT 2.0 enabling standards just received some extra support through a strategic partnership with Pastel Network. This partnership leverages Pastel’s robust decentralized storage and advanced NFT rareness assessment protocols, integrating them into LUKSO’s innovative blockchain infrastructure built for creators. Sage has been hard at work this week and on top of the summarizer for the Foundation post, he also wrote up one for this integration, covering the TLDR on what it means and its implications for creators, collectors, and developers on LUKSO. Read that here.
Head to the LUKSO Docs to Find Out How to Start Building on LUKSO
The LUKSO tech team is constantly updating their docs. This week, a nice update comes in the form of a “get started” section accompanied with a handy explainer vid. This page shows you exactly what you need to start building on LUKSO, from simple browser extension installs to smart contract developer boilerplates. Along with that, Jean “the doc master” Cavallera, the guy who is most often making updates to the LUKSO docs, added an Awesome LUKSO page. This page has a full list of resources including the latest live recordings, tutorials and guides, PRs, etc.
Friends with Benefits Fest was this Week and LUKSO Showed up.
FWB Fest is 3 days of music, ideas & emerging tech in the woods of Idyllwild, CA. FWB is the perfect group to be involved with LUKSO, considering they are essentially a social group having on-chain fun. The LUKSO team hosted some meet and greets with festival attendees and had something special planned for attendees. Not sure what it is yet, but It has something to do with Universal Profiles.
