A description of how the project has supported development and usage of the OP Stack :

Introduction

Optimism Español is a collaborative and open (unofficial) community dedicated to promoting the adoption of Optimism by disseminating information about its technology, ecosystem and governance processes in Spanish. Our goal is to reach all Latin American citizens and Spanish speakers in general, so that they can learn about the benefits of this Ethereum scaling solution.

How do we do it?

Optimism Español has been working on developing the Optimism ecosystem in Latin America through various activities for all types of users in different parts of the region. During 2022, we have disseminated online educational content through various platforms, such as Twitter, Discord and YouTube, both independently and in collaboration with other communities to increase our reach. We have also participated in events related to Ethereum and cryptocurrencies in general to promote Optimism’s ethos and its innovative approach to governance. We have also kept our audience informed about protocol updates, governance and ecosystem news through our communication channels. We have also been responsible for translations of the articles in the official Optimism mirror. You can review our 2022 summary in our previous post, published by @NicoProducto:
