Title: Formally established Optimism Chinese Community(Optimism 中文力量)

Proposal Champion: Marcus

Date: 2024.02.28

TL:DR

Officially established Optimism Chinese Community, OP Chinese Community is an organisation initiated by GCC, LXDAO, PlanckerDAO, Dengchain Community and TraDAO to spread the concept of Optimism technology and public goods, aiming to be a bridge linking the Chinese-speaking community and the Optimism ecosystem. It aims to be a bridge between the Chinese-speaking community and the Optimism ecosystem, to promote two-way communication within the Optimism ecosystem and the Chinese-speaking community, and to promote the prosperity of public goods. The Optimism Chinese community will use the Optimism Chinese Power brand as a bridge to provide all-round guidance for Chinese projects in the Optimism ecosystem, and to help Chinese projects enter or migrate to the Optimism ecosystem. The overall goal of Optimism Chinese Power is to be an officially certified community and Chinese Power advocate.

Description

Optimism is a Layer2 scaling solution that achieves the goal of scaling the Ethernet network by using the Optimistic Rollup scheme, which is a single-round interactive design.

LXDAO is a DAO with a strategic focus on public goods, our mission is to support valuable public goods in a sustainable way, and after a year of development that has resulted in the birth of a number of public goods, I’d like to make a deep connection between LXDAO and optimism!

EVM

Optimism is a Layer 2 Optimistic Rollup network designed to utilize the strong security guarantees of Ethereum while reducing its cost and latency. Optimism is EVM equivalent, making the transition from L1 to L2 as seamless as possible. This means one-click deployments and full compatibility with most of the tooling Ethereum developers are accustomed to. It also means that with very few exceptions, existing Solidity smart contracts can run on Optimism exactly how they run on Ethereum. You can read more about EVM Equilvance here:

Public goods

Optimism is a public goods funding mechanism, and any deployments on Optimism support the funding of open-source public goods. This creates a positive economic feedback loop that funds critical infrastructure and innovation for developers and users alike. Read more about our retroactive public goods funding

Background

1. RetroPGF has a very small percentage of applied Chinese language projects

In this RetroPGF#3 process, the voice of the Chinese-speaking community is relatively small, with no more than 20 Chinese-speaking community projects known to have applied, and Chinese-speaking community projects accounted for less than 4% of the 644 public goods projects applied for, and there are only 9 Chinese-speaking projects known to have won awards in this RetroPGF#3, accounting for 1.7% of the overall number of awards.

1. Too few RetroPGF BadgeHolder holders

In RetroPGF#3, we found that there are too few Chinese speakers, and even in the RetroPGF discussion, some badge holders don’t know Chinese and can’t evaluate the projects accurately and efficiently.

1. The Chinese community’s understanding of Optimism and public goods is too low.

In the Chinese community, many people tend to discuss the coin price, project investment and research, etc., while ignoring the power of public goods construction, at the same time, in the Optimism Chinese channel, many people’s discussions tend to be related to OP airdrops, prices, etc., and no one has bothered to seriously study and understand the constructive role that OPs can bring in the public goods field.

We are going to set up the Optimism Chinese community around these three issues and gather everyone’s strengths.

Details

What we did

During RetroPGF#3, we directly or indirectly helped more than 6 of our members' projects receive RetroPGF awards with a total value of more than $500,000!

In Optimism Season 5 Grants, directly or indirectly encourage Chinese language projects to participate in Grants applications, with a total of 20 applications, of which 12 projects reached the Final review stage.

Operational activities, we have organised more than 2 sharing activities and received more than 500+ followers.

We will also continue to deepen the Optimism ecosystem in terms of operation, product and governance, and become a bridge between Chinese language projects and Optimism.

Budgets And Distribution

Optimism is a joint venture between several organisations, and GCC has donated US$30,000 to Optimism. LXDAO will contribute some of its staff as a start-up, and will also provide support for the operation of Optimism. Optimism Chinese Power is essentially a public good, any organisation or individual can read or call the research materials exported by Optimism Chinese Power, the profit model of Optimism Chinese Power is to accept donations or to apply for the mission on Optimism Season Grants 5, it is currently in the early stage of launching, and needs certain funds to maintain. If Optimism has more than $100,000 in the Optimism treasury, we will start some mechanisms or programmes to donate public goods.

Team Setting

Weekly meeting: Every Saturday at 14:00 (UTC+8)

5500 LXPU/Monthly, Total 16500 LXPU

LXDAO will provide 2200 LXP of support per month, for a total of 6600 LXP in a three-month cycle, which is also a retrospective of our milestones.

The team will have 4 permanent members who will work at 25LXPU/h.
