[READY] [GF: Phase 1 Proposal] Superfluid

Hi all, in light of Superchain developments over the past year and Base’s launch, we have made the decision to use $5-10k USD equivalent of the remaining OP tokens allocated to fund developer bounties for building on Base with Superfluid.

As Base and Optimism have entered an agreement to share sequencer revenues and actively collaborate across several other domains, we expect this will give great ROI to Optimism governance.

We hope that the community will be in support of this use of funds.

Hi @vijay! If you plan to use the funds outside of what was approved by governance, you’ll need to follow the process outlined in the Code of Conduct:

“Grant Recipients: Must execute the grant in accordance with what is outlined in the approved grant proposal. Grant recipients that wish to change the use of the grant from what is outlined in the proposal must submit a new proposal requesting approval for the change. To do so, they must follow the grants process in place at the time. If the change is not approved, the recipient must execute the grant as outlined in the original proposal or return the portion of grant funding affected by the unapproved change.”

That means you’ll need to request approval for this change from the Grants Council.

Great example of checks and balances.

The other day I was watching Jesse and Ben on Bankless and felt what if there is a collusion between some OP Stack Chains and the response here demonstrate the right balance.

All though, I am sure SuperFluid is doing fantastic with their WavePool program attracting devs.

Hopefully the revised proposal passes soon.

Love the high spirit :ok_hand:

Thanks for the info! On reflection, we’ll hold onto the OP tokens for more Optimism-focused bounties later in the year instead of using them for this purpose.
