Hi Stanford, I’m liking the idea of workshops in universities that involve building contracts that actually reward the students, what a great motivation to learn.
100% of the OP will be used to directly incentivize workshop participants to interact with the Optimism blockchain. We intend to experiment with creating a staking reward pool/time-lock contract tied to the duration of the academic session/semester exclusive as POAP.
Can you clarify if you’re planning on running this program at all 3 institutions listed or just pick one of them? That would help us get a better idea of the budgeting you’re looking at.
The following are universities currently being considered for the Edu-series:
- University of Lagos
- University of Ibadan
- Federal University of Technology, Minna
Additionally, after the workshop(s), would you consider assisting groups of interested students in setting up clubs (if they don’t exist there already) or if there are clubs there already, as Vee said, helping them focus on the Optimistic Vision as this would help the proposal more precisely fit into Intent 3.
