- 🌱 More experiments in public goods funding are necessary to find the best approaches.
🤝 That's why we’re so excited to support RetroPGF 2 and Optimism's vision of a sustainable startup funding cycle for public goods!
We’re sharing a first look into the structure of our new grants protocol on the OP Labs dev blog. Keep in mind that all the details included here are not finalized and will likely change as we continue to build.
The protocol is designed around our belief in pluralism: the need to be flexible and allow for a variety of grant program designs to help communities coordinate funding for their shared needs in the way that suits them best.
While the protocol is not yet available for public use, we wanted to provide a sneak peak at the contracts that make up the protocol in the spirit of building in public.

- 🙌 Our first Alpha Round is under way! We've kicked off with a collaboration pilot with UNICEF for 10 impact-focused, innovative projects from around the world.
👋 We want to introduce you to one of the amazing grantees: Xcapit. Learn more about their work.
In Argentina, Xcapit is building a smart crypto wallet for social impact, financial literacy, and inclusion. This self-custodial, smart crypto wallet features a wealth management investment planner, access to financial services, investment products, and loans.
Their impact has been massive so far! The numbers don’t lie: Their solution has already reached over 500k beneficiaries, the crypto wallet has over 50,000 users across 85+ countries, and the team has raised a total of $USD1.8m in follow-on funding.
