Lots of work went into making this -- particularly by the lead researchers, Livia, lisawocken, and Nathalia Scherer.

We'll be plumbing the depths of this report for quite some time.

I know, it's Sunday, and you've been wondering how blockchain tech is turning philanthropy on its head.

Drop in and hear from LauNaMu.eth ✨🌺 how Optimism is using Retroactive Public Goods Funding. Should be good.

Bonding curves.

They can build Ponzi schemes. They can also build public goods. The choice comes down to design.

De University of Ethereum did a nice job of distilling insights from griff.eth - $GIV Maxi on some of what good looks like:

With Web3, we have in our hands the capacity to create thousands of funding mechanisms to support public goods!

But 1st, we need to shift our perspective beyond open-source software, to a broader spectrum of public goods.
