Introducing the Optimism Guide

Hey everyone, I wanted to give an update on what has been going on at optimism.guide since September:

  • Added new resources regularly, and here I’m particularly happy about some great submissions from community members through the contribution form. As an example, @Sator from Blockchain@USC submitted a Dune Analytics Dashboard they built, which is now one of the most clicked resources on the site.

  • Built a dedicated page featuring the videos of Cryptoversidad/@dmars300 which were created by them as part of their Mission proposal to develop the most relevant and aligned audiovisual content for the Optimism Collective.

  • Experimented with some targeted paid marketing through Google Ads to reach users that are interested in blockchains and public goods, but might not have heard of Optimism before. This is something I would not have done without the expectation of getting some retroactive funding which covers those expenses. In my opinion, this is a really good example of how the promise of RetroPGF creates incentives to do potentially impactful things that otherwise wouldn’t make any sense financially.

  • Speaking of RetroPGF, I’ve applied this round with Optimism Guide (see the application here). Thanks again to @Gonna.eth for encouraging me. I don’t expect much, and honestly also don’t deserve a lot, but excited for the results.
