Contribution

Blocktrend has been a contributor to the Taiwanese community's understanding of the Optimism ecosystem since early 2022. Through our original content, podcasts, and communication, it has simplified complex blockchain concepts and promoted governance participation. Taiwan's crypto participants view Blocktrend as a leading advocate for advancing Web3 public goods funding mechanism and actively promoting community governance participation. Our efforts have played a crucial role in bridging the gap between the Chinese-speaking audience and the world of Web3, making it an essential resource for those interested in blockchain technology and Optimism.

Impact

My contributions have had a substantial impact on the Optimism Collective in Chinese community. I authored various articles and engaged in podcasting to amplify the importance of the digital public goods, encouraging users to actively participate in Optimism ecosystem. Additionally, I explored RetroPGF concepts, underlining its commitment to supporting public goods. For example, my extensive coverage of RetroPGF included an article on 'Simulated Voting.' This aimed to provide readers with a firsthand understanding of the challenges faced by badgeholders when evaluating 195 projects within a tight timeframe. Additionally, I underscored the distinction between retroactive funding, which rewards based on outcomes, and traditional investments, which are based on expectations of future impact.
