OP Labs x DeFi Wonderland x Uniswap propose ERC-7802

ERC-7802 is a new token standard proposed by OP Labs, DeFi Wonderland and Uniswap aiming to improve cross-chain functionality with two core design principles: Bridge Agnosticism and Extensibility.

It separates token logic from bridge complexities, keeping contracts simple and secure. This allows tokens to work seamlessly with various bridge models, like lock/unlock or burn/mint, without modifications. The extensible design also lets developers add features, such as mint/burn limits, easily. ERC-7802 aims to unify chains with a flexible, community-driven standard, reducing developer friction across Ethereum. Look into the proposal here and share your thoughts

Ethernity DAO

The Ethernity DAO is a community-driven organization empowering members to shape the future of Ethernity. By participating in governance, community members can vote on key initiatives that guide Ethernity’s growth and evolution. With a focus on decentralization and engagement, the DAO enables contributors to support Ethernity’s vision as a leading force in the blockchain-based entertainment industry.

This proposal aims to boost Ethernity’s position through a 15% token supply increase, enhancing market accessibility, liquidity, and incentives for growth.

Learnings from Optimism Retro Funding Rounds

Carl Cervone, an Optimism Collective contributor and citizen, recently shared insights from two years of Retroactive Public Goods Funding (Retro Funding). He noted that in 2023, large-scale funding rounds often turned into popularity contests, while annual rounds in 2024 provided feedback too slowly.

Carl suggests that in 2025, Optimism should focus on fewer domains, iterate more rapidly, and refine successful strategies. He also emphasized the need to balance metrics-based evaluations with expert assessments to enhance the funding process. Additionally, Carl highlighted the importance of developing effective methods to measure the success of Retro Funding itself. Read his full learnings here.
