Many of the Phase 1 Proposals are indeed trying to do just that, with either New Projects having OP at their core, or introducing OP into Existing Projects.

My suggestion is that if you are a delegate, have self-delegated or will be influencing your delegate, then vote wisely by:

  • Reading all the Proposals in full, and also read the Proposal Replies in full (these Replies give Proposers more time to explain their project outside of the Word Limit enforced in the Proposal).
  • If you donā€™t understand something in a Proposal, then seek clarity via questioning the proposer in a Reply. I assume all Proposal creators are more than willing to spend all the time you need explaining concepts and ideas so you can understand things and helps you vote ā€˜Forā€™ their Proposal.

Thatā€™s just my two cents.

Kind regards,
Axel

Whether or not they are scaling Ethereum, it still remains a blockchain of itself, a network of different dapps and projects! Let $OP rule. More utility, more demandsāœ…
