Sinkas - Content Creator, Project Manager
I have a lot of experience with creating simple and easily digestible content that breaks down complex topics. Some of my more recent and polished writing can be found on Mirror while a lot of my random musings and thought pieces can be found on Cent 1 .
Furthermore, through my work at Roll, I onboarded over 100 creators to web 3 , breaking down complex topics for new entrants such as decentralized exchanges, liquidity pools, impermanent loss, ERC- 20 s, and more. I developed a strong sense of how to deliver information in an understandable format through my countless interactions with new participants.
Additional content creation experience comes from my writing and editing of Roll’s biweekly newsletter ( 20 k subscribers) - Examples found on Roll’s blog (up to April 2022 )
My full CV can be found here 2 .
Please explain how this Mission will help accomplish the above Intent:
The videos will make information more readily accessible.
Through the video format with simple animations, we’ll make the idea of DAOs, votes, and delegation more approachable, understandable, and digestible.
The videos will act as go-to resources that people can point to whenever a topic that one of the videos covers is mentioned.
The articles will act as resources within Discourse, and the link-back from Youtube to Discourse will bring in more people to the Governance forums.
The step-by-step guides will help people actually perform actions, such as delegate their tokens to existing delegates, or create their own delegate profile.
More specifically, the Alliance will create content that captures everything in regard to voting in DAOs, specifically in Optimism. From how voting works, what delegation is, how anyone can create a delegate profile, and how they can delegate their tokens to an existing delegator.
The content will come primarily in a series of short videos ( 2 - 3 mins in length) which will be uploaded on a new Youtube channel (name - up for suggestions: Optimistic Channel). In addition, I’ll also transcribe the videos into written guides that can go into more detail as well as write separate step-by-step tutorials for actionable items (e.g. how to create a delegate profile on Optimism).
Each article/video will be about a separate element in the broader sphere of voting and delegation to optimize the length and digestibility of the information.

What makes your Alliance well-suited to execute this Mission?
Sinkas - I have a lot of experience with managing projects end-to-end, breaking down complex topics into easily understood points and I’ve personally helped onboard over 100 people to web 3 .
Please list the critical milestone(s) that should be tracked to determine if you should receive your grant in one year:
All videos will be uploaded to the Youtube Channel, and all articles & guides posted on Discourse by the end of Season 4 (September 20 )
How should Token House delegates measure progress toward this Mission:
Scripts for all the videos finished by August 1 st.
Voiceovers recorded by August 15 th
Videos finished by September 15 th
Videos published on Youtube by September 20 th
How should badge holders measure impact upon completion of this Mission?
The total number of views across all 5 videos exceeds 5 , 000 ( 1 , 000 views/video).
The articles shared on Discourse collectively have over 2 , 500 views ( 500 views/article).
There is an increase in Optimism’s delegates as a result of the video and article guides on how anyone can create a delegate profile.
Breakdown of Mission budget request:
The requested upfront grant of $ 2 , 000 USDC will be used to pay an independent contractor to create the whiteboard video.
5 , 000 $OP for the creation of the video scripts for 5 videos.
3 , 000 $OP for the creation of 5 articles and 2 step-by-step tutorials
4 , 000 $OP for the project management works to produce the finalized videos.
I confirm that my grant will be subject to clawback for failure to execute on critical milestones: Yes
I confirm that I have read and understand the grant policies: Yes
I understand that I will be required to provide additional KYC information to the Optimism Foundation to receive this grant: Yes
I understand that I will be expected to follow the public grant reporting requirements outlined here: Yes
P.S For this particular proposal, I’ve been looking to form an Alliance in the Optimism Discord. If an interested party is found before the deadline, I’d be more than happy to work with them to create the videos rather than outsourcing the work to a freelancer.
The post details a proposal submitted to the Optimism DAO to create educational video and article resources on governance accessibility. The proposal includes a budget request, mission plan, previous experience, and ways to measure progress and impact. The creator, Sinkas, aims to simplify complex topics like DAO governance and delegation through videos and articles, targeting a broader audience in the crypto space.

hi @Sinkas! Great to see you’ve submitted multiple Mission proposals. I see you’re the only Alliance member but the proposals show different Alliance names. You should submit all these proposals under the same Alliance name (ie. Sinkas) if the Alliance membership is the same across proposals (just you.) Each Alliance is allowed to submit up to 3 Mission proposals, so this shouldn’t be an issue for you
