Builders Season 4
Intent 2: Grow the Superchain
Over the past year, Optimism has seen an exciting amount of ecosystem growth across many different verticals and communities, and across both OP Mainnet and OP Chains.
In Season 5, the Collective will focus on developer growth across the Superchain. Crypto is closer than ever to reaching its full potential, and it’s the Collective’s responsibility to create the conditions for developers around the globe to keep working towards a new version of the internet that puts power in the hands of people.
As Optimism expands and the Superchain grows, this Collective Intent is targeted at developer growth across the entire Collective: we care about developers deploying new applications on OP Mainnet; teams or ecosystems adding new OP Chains to the Superchain; and the growth of new and existing OP Chains.
Collective Measurements
Active Builders on the Superchain, defined as:
- Unique contract deployers across all OP Chains
- Unique contract deployers of contracts with interaction from >50 unique addresses
How the Governance Fund Supports Intent #2:
The Governance Fund will support this Intent in a limited capacity:
- The Governance Fund should focus on Mission Requests and/or grants that advance developer growth on OP Mainnet. The Governance Fund should not focus on grants to grow other specific OP Chain ecosystems.
- The Governance Fund may support projects that support developer experience on OP Mainnet and across the Superchain.
- The Governance Fund is a small, finite supply of tokens intended to bootstrap the Collective as it evolves to be supported primarily via retroPGF; RetroPGF, along with other mechanisms, is better suited to support the growth of other individual OP Chain ecosystems.
Examples of * Delegate Mission Requests:
- Builder and/or growth incentive grants for projects deploying on OP Mainnet
- Interoperability research
- Developer tooling that improves users’ ability to build, test, and deploy applications
- Contributions that improve wallet, block explorer, RPC, or other dev-centric product integrations
- Contributions that support development and adoption of account abstraction wallets
- Frontends to increase access to Optimism’s canonical bridge contracts
