Introducing the Optimism Collective:

Baby Alpha is here! We are proud to announce that today we hit our Baby Alpha milestone and have begun the march to Fair Onboarding Alpha and Full Launch Alpha. blog.matter-labs.io/baby-alpha-has… What we've accomplished and what's ahead 🧵 (1/6)

💡Historically, financial systems have forced people to leave assets in the custody of others. Cryptocurrency gives us the opportunity to be in control of our own digital assets and financial futures. To access this opportunity, we *must* custody our own digital assets. 🧵👇

We’re excited to share, we have: 1) Raised $200M and now have a total of $458M in mission-driven funding 2) Decided to go FULL OPEN SOURCE at our next milestone 3) Reserved ⅔ of a potential future token for the ecosystem 4) Formed a partnership with OpenZeppelin 👇1/8
