Reading the tweets from the individuals and projects who received funding from RetroPGF 2 has us feeling some type of way.❤️✨
We could all use a dopamine boost to start the week, so we’re sharing a handful of them:
RetroPGF is a positive-sum game that makes the whole Collective better.
Massive thanks to the citizen badgeholders who are creating an economic model where public goods are rewarded with profit equal to their impact.
10M OP was awarded through RetroPGF Round 2 to the builders and educators whose impact is essential to growing the Optimism Ecosystem. 🌞 🌱
RetroPGF is changing how impactful work is rewarded, and it’s made possible in large part by the efforts of the citizen bagdeholders.
Tomorrow on OP Radio we will be joined by none other than @lalalavendr.
We'll discuss The Collective DAO Archives, an incredible open-source resource she created following months of research on DAO governance and policy.
See you there!
