Bobby Dresser is the general manager at the Optimism Foundation, coming with an exciting announcement. Round 2 is The Optimism Collective’s second round of Retroactive Public Goods Funding (RetroPGF)

RetroPGF 2 will allocate 10m OP tokens to fund public goods that support development and usage of the OP Stack. Optimism’s vision is to build a global system where positive impact to the collective is rewarded by profit to the individual. RetroPGF is an experimental mechanism to realize this goal of “impact = profit”. By funding public goods sustainably, the Collective can create a rich ecosystem and a better economy.
