My contributions are listed above and have helped grow the community, ecosystem and governance framework to where it is today.

The things I like to see the most in a proposal are very clear milestones that will hold the project accountable and a comprehensive token distribution plan that incentives long term use and brings new users to Optimism that will stick around long term.

I am hoping to see more defi projects come to Optimism as well as RWAs, institutional investors and anything that brings in new users and improves user experience.
