Criteria: Discretionary Factors - Average: 0.3 || Total: 1


*Boosted yields helps native projects rope in tvl at the moment there is massive tvl leakage due to higher rewards elsewhere base


*We support more front ends that increase/decentralize access to protocols and information and think most of the weaknesses of the product/grant plan are minor and easily improved upon


*While this is an interesting protocol funding yield aggregators/managers may just cannibalize capital that is already on Optimism which reduces the prospective ROI of the grant.

*Builders may utilize this to be more involved in governance which is an area that we haven't incentivized properly.


Though I will say OP has started to do this without the Velo program.


*Small TAM


*Builders with locked funds could become governance participants and also gain incentive to contribute.




Criteria: Discretionary - Average: -0.2 || Total: -1


*This is a novel well thought proposal that has the potential to significantly increase governance participation


*Seems like necessary now that OP is doing this natively.


*Recommend applicant resubmit at a later date because: 1) This platform is still undergoing audits 2) the recipient of a large part of the funding has not yet been identified nor guidelines on their selection provided 3) curriculum not yet established 4) as written the govNFT Champion would have discretion over who receives further funding.


In other words despite Velodrome being the grantee this grant plan would empower Velodrome to unilaterally select someone to receive 10-15k of the grant. That person would then select who receives the remainder. The Grants Council would effectively be funding a grants program run by Velodrome at their discretion making it impossible for the Grants Council to ensure compliance as required under our mandate

*Importation of yield bearing assets to Optimism should be prioritized.


*This proposal can be greatly improved but I am scoring projects with discretionary +1 for yield-generating collateral usage + a target to migrate RETH (a minority LST)


*Pooltogether isn't a protocol that really achieves economies of scale with liquidity in the way other protocols do. I feel like a grant here would not have the ROI required to justify it's size.

Criteria: Demo included (binary yes/no) - Average: 1.0 || Total: 4




Criteria: Discretionary Factors - Average: 0.3 || Total: 1


*IMO this is the exact reason that we have grants to help a novel protocol bootstrap liquidity on Optimism.


*Optimism should support a protocol focused on yield-generating collateral


*The grant size is around 20% of the total TVL of this protocol across multiple chains according to DeFi Llama. If the request was smaller -- under 20k -- to finance a pilot to establish this would have a material impact on the protocol's adoption and use on Optimism then a grant would be easier to justify. Notably deployment is a milestone and Optimism is already offered on the Poolside front end




Criteria: Distribution implementation plan - Average: 2.0 || Total: 10

*Open Zeppelin trail of bits




Criteria: Discretionary - Average: -1.0 || Total: -4


*This grant proposal feels like it is incomplete and not up to the standards one would expect from Compound. There is a lack of detail in how the OP will actually be used. Milestones are vague and appear to be placeholders that didn't get the actual details added to them before submission deadline.


Also would want to know exactly which LSTs are to receive incentives -- either a discrete list or established guidelines -- so that Compound cannot then leverage this grant to extract concessions or BD deals from LST issuers.


Additional revisions that would make this stronger if resubmitting:
1) Pledge to avoid negative interest rates so that Compound users cannot outright profit from fund supplied by Optimism governance
2) Focus milestones on results (e.g. metrics that indicate users want the thing that was built/deployed/incentivized) rather than team efforts like a deployment
