[DRAFT] Unitap: Join the Optimistic future NOW
by Unitap - No Role
Posted on: June 27, 2023, 5:09 p.m.
Content: GM @griff The Gas Tap aim’s to make Unitap a better onboarding solution to Optimism & the Join the Optimistic future NOW program. However, it’s not essential to reach the critical milestones of this grant. Nevertheless, we believe it would be an amazing onboarding mechanism to have both Gas Tap & Learn Tap active. Therefore, we are looking to fund Gas Tap through the co-granting option of a Builders grant & we are actively looking for other alternatives to fund it.

Content: Mission Proposal S 4 Intent: Spread Awareness of the Optimistic Vision (Intent 3 ) Proposed Mission: Join the Optimistic Future NOW program. [Proposal Tier](Collective Trust Tiers - # 2 33 ): Ember Please verify that you meet the qualifications for your Tier: I am a new community member that has not worked with or for the Optimism Collective before Baseline grant amount: 90 k OP % of total available Intent budget: 9 % Alliance: Unitap Alliance Lead: Ali Contact info: Telegram: @alariarch Email: team@unitap.app L 2 recipient address: 0 x 95 F 2177022 e 7 B 34 D 84498 F 2 D 9 dd 63 a 7457 ab 5793 Please list the members of your Alliance and link to any previous work: Ali (PM & Lead) - Web 3 Enthusiast - Experienced project and business manager.

Contributor at Giveth - Co-founder at Muon network. https://twitter.com/_paslar_ Paslar – Medium Bastin (backend and contract dev) - Five year’s development experience. Github: mohamadbastin (Mohamad Bastin) · GitHub Please explain how this Mission will help accomplish the above Intent: TL;DR: One-stop shop to onboard into Optimism for crypto users & newbies alike. Get ETH for gas from the Sybil-resistant Gas Tap, learn about the optimistic vision, answer quizzes & perform challenges to win OP rewards on the Token Tap & get an attestation when completing the program. Everything in one place. Important disclosure: The development of this mission has a significant overlap with the development of the Optimism governance learning by doing mission for intent 4 . If both get funding, we will give back the development budget of Token Tap & Learn Tap for one grant ( 60 , 000 OP). The Problem: More L 1 s/L 2 s, more competition for attention, less perceived differentiation, less commitment. Blockchain ecosystems are in fierce competition with an increasing number of players offering seemingly similar solutions. Optimism is actually bringing a refreshing narrative through the Optimism Collective model, the explicit intention of allocating a large part of the token supply and future profit to fund public goods. As well as a vision where the collective eventually expands into the physical world and provides for basic human needs at scale. However, this narrative gets buried by an overwhelming quantity of content released to the Optimsm potential audience. Unitap & the Join the Optimistic Future NOW program may change this. The solution: Join the Optimistic Future NOW program. This is an active learning program designed to be an easy onboarding and learning tool for crypto users & newbies alike. With a Sybil-resistant Gas Tap to start experimenting on Optimism, a guided journey to explore Optimism, learn about the Optimistic vision, videos, quizzes, on-chain & off-chain challenges to earn rewards and eventually get an attestation of completion. Our approach is based on 5 key elements that will make it succeed: Simple onboarding. The experience would be hosted on https://unitap.app/ a platform designed as a one-stop-shop to onboard new users to blockchain networks & dapps. Unitap will host 6 taps (Gas Tap, Token Tap, Learn Tap, Prize Tap, Stake Tap & Launch Tap) Unitap_home_page 1280 × 607 53 . 2 KB New users can get gas to try out a new blockchain on the Sybil-resistant Gas Tap. Gamified experience. The program will have a gamified experience featuring challenges & rewards to boost engagement. Completion attestations. We will use the attestation station to certify that the user has learned about the Optimistic vision & performed a set of actions on Optimism. Many use cases may ripple out of these attestations including citizenship, airdrops, etc. $OP Incentivizes to learn & engage. OP incentives will further encourage users to learn about the Optimistic vision. Fair distribution. Unitap uses BrightID battle-tested Sybil-resistant technology to avoid exploitations & fairly distribute gas, token rewards, prizes & many other things. The advantages of active learning over lecture style learning are well documented, according to a study by the National Training Laboratories, the average retention rate for active practice over time is 75 %, and for teaching others or immediate use of the learning it’s 90 %. In contrast, the retention rate for lecture-style learning is just 5 % (“The Learning Pyramid”, National Training Laboratories, Bethel, Maine, USA). Practical learning also boosts engagement and participation over time. Content & format of the Join the Optimistic Future NOW. The plan is to work with the Optimism collective to define the most important content for the program. Here is a non-exhaustive list of resources we could use: The Optimistic Vision Ether’s Phoenix — The Optimism Collective Introducing the Optimism Collective — The Optimism Collective Building Bedrock — The Optimism Collective 1 RetroPGF 2 : Learnings & Reflections — The Optimism Collective The format will include reads, videos, quizzes & on-chain/off-chain challenges. Some examples that we may add for Optimism are: Claim Gas Claim OP Buy OP Delegate your OP Bridge to OP Mint NFTs Use DeFi tools.

Posted on: June 21, 2023, 5:46 p.m.
Content: Mission Proposal S 4 Intent: Governance Accessibility (Intent 4 ) Proposed Mission: Optimism governance Learning by doing the program [Proposal Tier](Collective Trust Tiers - # 2 33 ): Ember Baseline grant amount: 90 k OP % of total available Intent budget: 3 % Alliance: Unitap Alliance Lead: Ali Contact info: Telegram: @alariarch - Email: team@unitap.app L 2 recipient address: 0 x 95 F 2177022 e 7 B 34 D 84498 F 2 D 9 dd 63 a 7457 ab 5793 Please list the members of your Alliance and link to any previous work: Ali (PM & Lead) - Web 3 Enthusiast - Experienced project and business manager.

Contributor at Giveth - Co-founder at Muon network. https://twitter.com/_paslar_ Paslar – Medium Bastin (backend and contract dev) - Five year’s development experience. Github: mohamadbastin (Mohamad Bastin) · GitHub Please explain how this Mission will help accomplish the above Intent: TL;DR: The Optimism governance Learning by Doing program will be a gamified & practical learning experience with on-chain & off-chain challenges resulting in attestations on the Optimism blockchain & Sybil-resistant reward distribution mechanism. The experience is built both for Optimism users & newbies. Important disclosure: The development of this mission has a significant overlap with the development of the Join the Optimistic Future NOW 1 mission for intent 3 . If both get funding, we will give back the development budget of Token Tap & Learn Tap for one grant ( 60 , 000 OP). Why OP, that is the question. While many asked When token?.. The Optimism collective focused on why the token. Their answer is simple: “To distribute control of the network for the benefit of the protocol and its constituents.” Blockchain governance: An exciting problem to address. Blockchain governance is still in its infancy with many exciting experiments all over the blockchain space. The Optimism Collective is innovating through a bicameral governance system & quick iterations. This one-of-a-kind experiment in addition to the explicit intention to self-destruct and iterate the governance process is likely to lead to better governance structures that fulfill the vision of Impact = Profit. However, in the context of governance apathy, overwhelming shipping of innovation & competition for user attention. We need more engaging ways to involve the Optimism constituents in Governance. How to make governance learning & engagement attractive? We believe that making governance learning & engagement attractive is not easy to do & would likely require some experimentation & iteration itself. However, we want to experiment with a novel approach on Optimism. The Optimism governance Learning by Doing program has 5 key elements that we believe will make it succeed. Simple onboarding. The experience would be hosted on https://unitap.app/ 1 a platform designed as a one-stop-shop to onboard new users to blockchain networks & dapps. Unitap will host 6 taps (Gas Tap, Token Tap, Learn Tap, Prize Tap, Stake Tap & Launch Tap) Unitap_home_page 1280 × 607 53 . 2 KB New users can obtain gas to try out a new blockchain on the Sybil-resistant Gas Tap & use the Learn Tap to learn about Optimism, complete challenges & get rewarded all in the same place. Gamified experience. The program will have a gamified experience featuring challenges & rewards to boost engagement. Completion attestations. We will use the attestation station to certify that the user has learned about the governance process & performed actions on Optimism. These attestations can be used to prove that delegates & token holders understand the Optimism governance. Many use cases may ripple out of these attestations including delegates elections, airdrops, etc. $OP Incentivizes to learn & engage in governance: There are probably few use cases more justifiable to give OP rewards than learning about the Optimism governance process. Fair distribution: Unitap uses BrightID battle-tested Sybil-resistant technology to avoid exploitations & fairly distribute the rewards (One reward - one person). Content & format of the Optimism governance Learning by doing the program. We would love to work with the Optimism Collective to polish the content of the program. We plan to develop the following topics for the program: Impact=profit Token house & Citizens house Why will Optimism Governance self-destruct? - The iterative process to get governance right. The working constitution. The Governance process manual The role of the Optimism Foundation The format will include reads, videos, quizzes & on-chain/off-chain challenges. Some examples that we may add for Optimism are: Claim OP Buy OP Delegate your OP Vote with your OP Mint an Optimist NFT (when available) One last thought by Confucius. “Tell me and I will forget, show me and I may remember; involve me and I will understand.” ― Confucius What makes your Alliance well-suited to execute this Mission?

Please explain how this Mission will help accomplish the above Intent:
TL;DR: One-stop shop to onboard into Optimism for crypto users & newbies alike. Get ETH for gas from the Sybil-resistant Gas Tap, learn about the optimistic vision, answer quizzes & perform challenges to win OP rewards on the Token Tap & get an attestation when completing the program. Everything in one place.
Important disclosure: The development of this mission has a significant overlap with the development of the Optimism governance learning by doing mission for intent 4 . If both get funding, we will give back the development budget of Token Tap & Learn Tap for one grant ( 60 , 000 OP).
The Problem: More L 1 s/L 2 s, more competition for attention, less perceived differentiation, less commitment.
Blockchain ecosystems are in fierce competition with an increasing number of players offering seemingly similar solutions. Optimism is actually bringing a refreshing narrative through the Optimism Collective model, the explicit intention of allocating a large part of the token supply and future profit to fund public goods. As well as a vision where the collective eventually expands into the physical world and provides for basic human needs at scale.
However, this narrative gets buried by an overwhelming quantity of content released to the Optimsm potential audience.
Unitap & the Join the Optimistic Future NOW program may change this.
The solution: Join the Optimistic Future NOW program.
This is an active learning program designed to be an easy onboarding and learning tool for crypto users & newbies alike. With a Sybil-resistant Gas Tap to start experimenting on Optimism, a guided journey to explore Optimism, learn about the Optimistic vision, videos, quizzes, on-chain & off-chain challenges to earn rewards and eventually get an attestation of completion.
Our approach is based on 5 key elements that will make it succeed:
Simple onboarding. The experience would be hosted on https://unitap.app/ a platform designed as a one-stop-shop to onboard new users to blockchain networks & dapps. Unitap will host 6 taps (Gas Tap, Token Tap, Learn Tap, Prize Tap, Stake Tap & Launch Tap)
Unitap_home_page 1280 × 607 53 . 2 KB
New users can get gas to try out a new blockchain on the Sybil-resistant Gas Tap.
Gamified experience. The program will have a gamified experience featuring challenges & rewards to boost engagement.
Completion attestations. We will use the attestation station to certify that the user has learned about the Optimistic vision & performed a set of actions on Optimism. Many use cases may ripple out of these attestations including citizenship, airdrops, etc.
$OP Incentivizes to learn & engage. OP incentives will further encourage users to learn about the Optimistic vision.
Fair distribution. Unitap uses BrightID battle-tested Sybil-resistant technology to avoid exploitations & fairly distribute gas, token rewards, prizes & many other things.
The advantages of active learning over lecture style learning are well documented, according to a study by the National Training Laboratories, the average retention rate for active practice over time is 75 %, and for teaching others or immediate use of the learning it’s 90 %. In contrast, the retention rate for lecture-style learning is just 5 % (“The Learning Pyramid”, National Training Laboratories, Bethel, Maine, USA). Practical learning also boosts engagement and participation over time.
Content & format of the Join the Optimistic Future NOW.
The plan is to work with the Optimism collective to define the most important content for the program. Here is a non-exhaustive list of resources we could use:
The Optimistic Vision
Ether’s Phoenix — The Optimism Collective
Introducing the Optimism Collective — The Optimism Collective
Building Bedrock — The Optimism Collective 1
RetroPGF 2 : Learnings & Reflections — The Optimism Collective
The format will include reads, videos, quizzes & on-chain/off-chain challenges. Some examples that we may add for Optimism are:
Claim Gas
Claim OP
Buy OP
Delegate your OP
Bridge to OP
Mint NFTs
Use DeFi tools.
It’s important to notice that the deliverable by September 20 th will be an MVP.

Please explain how this Mission will help accomplish the above Intent:
TL;DR: One-stop shop to onboard into Optimism for crypto users & newbies alike. Get ETH for gas from the Sybil-resistant Gas Tap, learn about the optimistic vision, answer quizzes & perform challenges to win OP rewards on the Token Tap & get an attestation when completing the program. Everything in one place.
Important disclosure: The development of this mission has a significant overlap with the development of the Optimism governance learning by doing mission for intent 4 . If both get funding, we will give back the development budget of Token Tap & Learn Tap for one grant ( 60 , 000 OP).
The Problem: More L 1 s/L 2 s, more competition for attention, less perceived differentiation, less commitment.
Blockchain ecosystems are in fierce competition with an increasing number of players offering seemingly similar solutions. Optimism is actually bringing a refreshing narrative through the Optimism Collective model, the explicit intention of allocating a large part of the token supply and future profit to fund public goods. As well as a vision where the collective eventually expands into the physical world and provides for basic human needs at scale.
However, this narrative gets buried by an overwhelming quantity of content released to the Optimsm potential audience.
Unitap & the Join the Optimistic Future NOW program may change this.
The solution: Join the Optimistic Future NOW program.
This is an active learning program designed to be an easy onboarding and learning tool for crypto users & newbies alike. With a Sybil-resistant Gas Tap to start experimenting on Optimism, a guided journey to explore Optimism, learn about the Optimistic vision, videos, quizzes, on-chain & off-chain challenges to earn rewards and eventually get an attestation of completion.
Our approach is based on 5 key elements that will make it succeed:
Simple onboarding. The experience would be hosted on https://unitap.app/ a platform designed as a one-stop-shop to onboard new users to blockchain networks & dapps. Unitap will host 6 taps (Gas Tap, Token Tap, Learn Tap, Prize Tap, Stake Tap & Launch Tap)
Unitap_home_page 1280 × 607 53 . 2 KB
New users can get gas to try out a new blockchain on the Sybil-resistant Gas Tap.
Gamified experience. The program will have a gamified experience featuring challenges & rewards to boost engagement.
Completion attestations. We will use the attestation station to certify that the user has learned about the Optimistic vision & performed a set of actions on Optimism. Many use cases may ripple out of these attestations including citizenship, airdrops, etc.
$OP Incentivizes to learn & engage. OP incentives will further encourage users to learn about the Optimistic vision.
Fair distribution. Unitap uses BrightID battle-tested Sybil-resistant technology to avoid exploitations & fairly distribute gas, token rewards, prizes & many other things.
The advantages of active learning over lecture style learning are well documented, according to a study by the National Training Laboratories, the average retention rate for active practice over time is 75 %, and for teaching others or immediate use of the learning it’s 90 %. In contrast, the retention rate for lecture-style learning is just 5 % (“The Learning Pyramid”, National Training Laboratories, Bethel, Maine, USA). Practical learning also boosts engagement and participation over time.
Content & format of the Join the Optimistic Future NOW.
The plan is to work with the Optimism collective to define the most important content for the program. Here is a non-exhaustive list of resources we could use:
The Optimistic Vision
Ether’s Phoenix — The Optimism Collective
Introducing the Optimism Collective — The Optimism Collective
Building Bedrock — The Optimism Collective
RetroPGF 2 : Learnings & Reflections — The Optimism Collective
The format will include reads, videos, quizzes & on-chain/off-chain challenges. Some examples that we may add for Optimism are:
Claim Gas
Claim OP
Buy OP
Delegate your OP
Bridge to OP
Mint NFTs
Use DeFi tools.
It’s important to notice that the deliverable by September 20 th will be an MVP.
