Workshop Series Optimism, an Initiative by Optimism Español, L2 Español and WakeUp Labs

TL,DR

We hosted a three-part streaming series called “Workshop Series Optimism” carried out jointly between WakeUp Labs, L2 en Español and Optimism en Español. In this post we will show metrics and conclusions for this Initiative.

Introduction

Who we are?

  • L2 en Español: A research team dedicate to study Ethereum scalability solutions. Lead by @Joxes
  • WakeUp Labs: A software factorty aligned with the Optimism Vision. They have also submitted to the grant council Builders Sub-Committee and have received funds from the RFPG2. Founded by @gonzaloDEPRECATED @0xMilton and @0xmdh
  • Optimism en Español: About us, you can find information on this very thread.

Why did we do it?

We noticed that there isn’t a lot of quality content about development on Optimism right now. Although some resources can be found online, access and the possibility of interacting with them is scarce. In turn, we decided to create this content in Spanish, thus adding valuable resources that drive growth and interest in Optimism in other communities.

What was our goal?

We seek to generate a meeting point with developers interested in developing on Optimism and making available to the Spanish-speaking community (with a focus on Latin America), quality content. We provide live discussion spaces, to strengthen the knowledge of Optimism and the interest of the community in developing on OP.

This Workshop was carried out in conjunction with WakeUp Labs, since they have the technical knowledge and expertise necessary to ensure that the contents have an excellent level. From WakeUp Labs, its technical leader, with more than 16 years of software development and 3 of Blockchain development, was the one who taught how to develop from scratch on Optimism.

In this part, we want to show impact metrics for each class we host:

Class 1 - April 25th, 2023:

Class 2, May 2sd, 2023:

Class 3 May 16th, 2023:

Certificates

As part of the participation in the Workshop, everyone who attended at least one of the three episodes received a minted NFT on the Optimism network. This served as an incentive to encourage participation and the use of the Optimism network. We use the minted POAPs to be able to determine the NFTs that we then send to each of the corresponding wallets with the minting of the POAPs.
This is the collection of certificates in OpenSea → https://opensea.io/collection/certificados-optimism-workshop-series-1

The certificates consisted of two versions:

  • GOLD Certificate: all those people who participated in all the classes (minted all the POAPs).
    0a33c7fa80145ccfa623f500df374b58

  • SILVER certificates: all those people who participated in at least one class (they minted at least one POAP).

This is the contract we deployed: UniversalToken | Address 0x3d3025eb5b18736482c5f24a4b4950a0cf3f2f1b | Optimistic Etherscan

Here, we share a brief table with the number of Wallets that minted POAPs.

Conclusions

  • The first class with @Joxes s had the highest attendance. Due to 0xJoxes’ extensive following and influence within the web3 ecosystem, his participation in this workshop helped attract a larger audience.
  • Classes 2 and 3 focused on technical aspects, specifically coding on Optimism. Although the attendance for these classes was lower compared to the first class, it was still considerable.
  • The workshop attracted individuals who were highly interested in developing on Optimism. It was conducted entirely in Spanish, making it one of the first high-quality resources for Spanish-speaking developers interested in Optimism. Additionally, the workshop was led by an expert in development, ensuring its credibility and expertise.
  • We learned that the procces to onboard people to the Optimism ecosystem must be wider than just regular users, there are a lot of people interested on developing and building products in OP.

Thanks to WakeUp Labs and L2 en Español for this wonderful adventure, we can’t wait for the next Workshop Series!

Stay safe and optimistic!
