hey @soyboy wanted to point you to Milestone Assessment . Aligning milestones with this is not mandatory for cycle 10 but you can get a better score on the final review if you implement it.

Thank you for the heads up. I edited the OP to add a milestone section with the new milestone assessment y’all have outlined.

Hey, @soyboy do you have an approximate date for critical milestone delivery? It could be something like Q2 or Q4 2023. Do you mind adding this to the milestones if possible? thank you!

Updated! These are estimated timelines and will probably be delivered before hand. I’m just giving myself a little buffer because I have a full time job and a newborn, so my bandwidth is tight at the moment.

Is there a way to see onchain evidence of the use of this interface or perhaps some other API that could register when an attestation is made or dapp enabled through this tool? Think that could be a useful benchmark.

I’m sure there is something out there, but I don’t know of any tools off the top of my head. I need to do some research first and then work on getting that implemented. In terms of priority, would the analytics functionality come before or after the functionality outlined in the grant so far?
Note: it would have to be an api or something custom built. The app goes directly through the deployed smart contract so there’s not an accurate way to track it on-chain.

I think this might have been meant for someone/where else, just pinging to make sure it goes to the right person(s).

it was intended for you but was the wrong link!
meant to post this - [DRAFT][GF: Phase 1 Proposal] Clique
wanted to get your thoughts on complementarity / differences
this isn’t a competition, tbc – we believe in backing multiple good approaches. but helps to get a lay of things

I think the main differentiation is that Clique is building out more specific identity applications with ZK proving system and the Attestation Station Interface is more of a general purpose attestation explorer.
Atm, my project is pretty basic, but the vision is it to become an “etherscan like explorer” for the AttestationStation smart contract. With a backend application for indexing, it has the potential to feature Clique social applications.
The optimism team is also working on a schema system, and my project has the potential to aggregate these schemas to mapping this complex attestation ecosystem that may emerge.

thanks for the thoughtful and helpful response!

Absolutely! We’d love to see ways to collaborate there – currently, we are using Dune & Flipside for visualization of the attestations made. Arguably many other indexers can be used to access the attested on-chain data for composable usage, but it would be nice to have a uniform & optimized interface!

Yeah I checked out the nxyz API that was posted in the AttestationStation telegram chat but it’s kind of limited. I need to research the other options you listed! But the “uniform & optimized interface” is the idea. I think it would be nice to have dedicated AttestationStation infrastructure. I think what you guys are doing is very cool! I need some more free time so I can take a deeper dive.

Hi @soyboy! Can you provide a Telegram handle or other contact method so the Optimism team can get in touch about paying out this grant! Feel free to DM or email lavande@optimism.io

Benchmark milestone: goal is to maintain >500 unique visitors a month. These analytics come from Netlify (my hosting provider).

Hello and greetings,
Thank you for this draft. First of all, the website at a glance, despite being very simple in the UI, but the application works properly and seamlessly. Regarding the problem that your application is going to solve, please tell me what this project has in terms of advantages than usual attestation we do by our email address or the wallet connection. I might not know the problem very deeply, so if you can illuminate it for me, I would be appreciated it. Thanky ou.

Hello, here’s some background information on the AttestationStation: What is the AttestationStation? | Optimism Docs
The interface that I created is exactly what you described: a very simple UI. This web application allows anyone to make or read attestations without any programming knowledge. This is the first iteration of the project. In the future, I’d like to enable a lot more functionality to create a more robust AttestationStation experience.

fantastic. I will check the link you shared. Good luck with your project.

Notice of withdraw from this grant
I’ve recently got information (not public yet) about a new direction the Optimism team is taking the AttestationStation. This new development will make the work outlined in my grant proposal obsolete.
To stay consistent with the Optimism Collectives goal of Impact = Profit, I am withdrawing from this grant because completing it will not result in any positive impact, so I’m uncomfortable profiting from it. Instead, I’m directing my efforts to the collective’s new missions and intents.
I’ve reached out to the grants council via email, but I haven’t heard back from them yet. I wanted to make a public notice as well so the community was aware of my intentions and didn’t assume I abandoned this work.
I plan to sunset the AttestationStation Interface when the Optimism publicly announces their pivot.
