It’s been over nine months since I’ve given a proper update on the state of things with Optional.

Various things have changed over the months and I’ve officially decided that I will not continue working on Optional anymore.

[Ammy | Maddie 🏳️‍⚧️ @AlphaSerpentis_]

Oh shit

[Optional @OptionalFinance]

Happy New Years!

2022 is going to be epic

[Ammy | Maddie 🏳️‍⚧️ @AlphaSerpentis_]

Absolutely unbelievable.

@gitcoin GR12 has got to be one of the most OP things because before quadratic funding, @OptionalFinance has raised more than 4.6x than GR12

Words cannot express how grateful I am for the community of Optional and Gitcoin

With much love 💜💜💜

@lumingks It appears to be working for us?

It appears our Discord server has now become the target of spammers/scammers, so here's a little reminder

At this moment, we do not have a governance/DAO token of any kind, nor are we planning to distribute one. We will NOT participate in an ICO/IDO and will not do a presale.

Damn, our Gitcoin Grant for @OptionalFinance has already raised 2.4x~ more than GR11 before quadratic funding!

We have two more days, but we have already raised $4.3K in contributions!

In the long run, we would like to decentralize Optional, but since we're still small and growing the community, we do not believe there's a strong push to currently fully decentralize.

[Ammy | Maddie 🏳️‍⚧️ @AlphaSerpentis_]

What if...

[Ammy | Maddie 🏳️‍⚧️ @AlphaSerpentis_]

Holy shit, @OptionalFinance's Gitcoin grant has potentially received the maximum QF amount from the main pool ($7,124)

That's about more than 3.6x of GR11's contributions + QF matching!

I'm so grateful for the community from Optional and Gitcoin 💜

[Optional @OptionalFinance]

It’s Day 5 of Gitcoin’s GR12 and we’ve raised more than $1K with an additional estimated $4.7K in QF matching!

For reference, GR11 raised us almost $2K with QF! Holy smokes, thank you to everyone who’s contributed!

We are very grateful for those who have contributed from both the Gitcoin and Optional community!

Thank you! 💜❤️

[Optional @OptionalFinance]

So far, our Gitcoin grant has received $224 in contributions w/ an estimated $575 from QF matching!

At this rate, we may be able to raise more than GR11!

Thank you to everyone who participated last round! 💜
