1️⃣ In the last months, I’ve built a full stack of public goods — alone, without grants:
📘 A multilingual illustrated book (10 languages)
📘The book is translated into 10 languages
🃏 4 NFT collections (cards, avatars, coloring, comic) 🤖 A RetroGPT bot for learning 🗳 Onchain DAO with real votes 🎥 YouTube content 🎵 An interactive hymn 📬 Daily activity across X, Mirror, Farcaster, Medium
→ All free. All solo. All open.
⸻
2️⃣ These contributions don’t always show up in gas metrics or dashboards.
But they create real value:
→ Education → Culture & emotion → Motivation for new builders → Global reach → Visual storytelling → AI + onchain experimentation
I believe Optimism is more than numbers.
⸻
3️⃣ Now I’m asking for 150,000–200,000 OP To scale and deepen the impact:
• Translate the OP book into 20+ languages • Launch 2 more comics • Expand RetroGPT (voice, code support) • Onboard 1,000+ users via quests • Launch a free open NFT hub • Keep everything public & open
⸻
4️⃣ I’m still building.
More comics. More quests. More languages. More onchain tools. More ways to onboard people into Optimism — through creativity, education & community.
I’m not stopping.
⸻
5️⃣ 🧡 Dear #Badgeholders —
If this resonates with you, If you’ve seen my work and believe in its direction — Your vote would mean the world.
I’m building for the Collective. Not just on Optimism — but for Optimism.
Thank you.
