🌍 BuildForGood Ecosystem β€” Cultural & Educational Public Goods for Optimism

:globe_showing_europe_africa: BuildForGood Ecosystem β€” Cultural & Educational Public Goods for Optimism

From solo builder β†’ to an interconnected ecosystem of onchain cultural artifacts, educational resources, games, and creative public goods.

I’ve been building for Optimism from the heart β€” and I’m here for the long term.
My goal is to grow this ecosystem step by step, bringing more creativity, education, and joy into the Superchain culture.

All 11 projects are enrolled in RetroPGF 8 and verified on Optimism Atlas.

Closing Statement

I believe the impact of the BuildForGood Ecosystem fairly reflects a RetroPGF 8 reward of 150 000 – 200 000 OP.

Beyond metrics, this ecosystem builds the cultural foundation for the Optimism Superchain β€”
inspiring, educating, and welcoming new builders.
