Optimism

Project Details What are you going to build?: The ENS protocol has consistently faced the challenge of high gas costs on L1 Ethereum. To address this, ENS Labs has expressed a strong commitment to integrating Optimism as one of the initial Layer 2 solutions. Presently, we have developed a subname rental solution specifically designed for L1 Ethereum, leveraging the capabilities of the recently deployed NameWrapper smart contract—an integral component of the ENS protocol. Our primary objective…

Project Details What are you going to build?: We want to build an open-source package that makes it trivial for any developer to spin up an OP stack rollup, both for development and production use. The package would enable you to configure and run your own rollup infrastructure by running only two or three commands. It would use a single well-documented configuration file, and help you fill it via a command line wizard. Additionally, the package would support spinning EIP-4337 account…

Project Details What are you going to build?: RedStone is a modular Oracle infrastructure that keeps data off-chain in the RedStone Data Access Layer and pushes it on EVM chains via attaching signed data packages to user transactions call-data (more details on the flow in the Docs). Our Oracle is designed for projects in need of flexible data feeds with frequent update time (<10 sec) - usually, it resonates with Lending Protocols, Perpetual DEXes, Derivatives & Synthetics protocols,…

Project Details What are you going to build?: The Pyth Network serves as an oracle provider, delivering financial market data to an array of blockchains. Pyth’s market data is sourced from 90 primary data providers, encompassing some of the world’s most prominent exchanges and market-making enterprises. Presently, the oracle supports over 250 price feeds spanning diverse asset classes, including US equities, commodities, foreign exchange, and cryptocurrencies and are accessible on more than…

Project Details What are you going to build?: evm-runners, a terminal-based game with EVM based challenges. The game will feature a series of challenges with increasing complexity that enhance EVM programming skills. Players will be able to install the game using the command curl get.evmr.sh | bash and progress through the challenges, optimizing their solutions for code size and gas cost. Instant feedback on solution performance will be provided to players, enabling them to iterate and…

Project Details What are you going to build?: Our goal is to enhance the EAS Attestation Explorer. Not only are we improving search functionality and coordination features for schemas, but we're also transforming the Explorer user experience into a platform that promotes incredible projects that use attestations. This upgraded Explorer will improve developer activation, simplify discovery and collaboration processes on schemas, and promote novel projects. Ultimately, we expect these…

What are you going to build?: We have already created DRPC.ORG and brought more cost-efficient and scalable RPC solution to Ethereum ecosystem. We combine 15+ providers under load balancing system for paid requests and enhance quality for free requests across the ecosystem, by combining available public nodes under our load balancer, for free, as a public goods. We also bring additional nodes to our Free tier via negotiations with web3 players and foundations.Subject of this Grant…

Project Details What are you going to build?: We are going to help bring Decentralised Science (DeSci) to the Optimism network by leveraging the DeSciWorld protocol, its DAO revenue and community. DeSci entails building tools for science including research funding, publishing models, incentive mechanisms, data storage and handling protocols, organisation improvements and more, in order to improve research quality, accessibility and transparency. DeSciWorld is currently building community…

Project Details What are you going to build?: Concrete is an open-source development framework for building application-specific "app-chain" rollups on the OP Stack--"the [...] open-source development stack that powers Optimism, maintained by the Optimism Collective." Concrete abstracts developers away from the low-level complexity of building an app-chain on Optimism while enabling them to build novel decentralised applications. I have been working on Concrete since the beggining of the…

Project Details What are you going to build?: Cannon is an infrastructure-as-code tool for EVM-compatible blockchains. (Think "Terraform for Ethereum") Why is what you are going to build going to succeed?: We've been actively developing Cannon in parallel with Synthetix V3, so we understand the advanced use cases for a tool like this and have been iterating accordingly. We aim to make Cannon a staple in every protocol engineer's toolkit.

"What are you going to build?: We want to enable player groups to easily steward future proof (onchain = client agnostic) worlds that can act as community owned containers for any number of game or social experiences. For the last 2 years at Atlantis World, we focused on onboarding the leading web3 orgs to build one central world that captures the energy & essence of the entire space as part of our gamified social onboarding platform. We understood from our user activity that people don’t…

Project Details What are you going to build?: We will port the Aragon Client and our Commons Stack (CS) tooling to Optimism. This will enable projects to use the Aragon Client dapp to create and manage new DAOs on Optimism. They will also be able to use Commons Stack’s governance and market maker tooling such as Tao Voting and the Augmented Bonding Curve (ABC). We see that having accessible and trusted DAO formation and management tooling is an important piece for Optimism’s wider…
