Onchain Summer has returned to us! It has been with us again for the second year in a row.

The beginning of **Onchain Summer** has been announced by **Coinbase, Base and Optimism.**

This time the emphasis is on the fact that Onchain Summer is for everyone. You can be an artist, a musician, a builder, anyone!

Onchain summer began with the [billboard image](https://twitter.com/jessepollak/status/1787581164565467335/), but now Coinbase have opened up the Onchain Summer brand to anyone to remix. Mint this commemorative NFT and access the original files to make your own creations. 100% of proceeds from the mint go directly to the original creators: [Clément Cases](https://www.clementcases.com/), designer of the font [Britney](https://rangeleft.co.uk/shop/product/britney/), and [Bendito Mockup](https://benditomockup.com/), creators of the Billboard mockup.

Mint the [Onchain Summer NFT](https://wallet.coinbase.com/nft/mint/ocscreative) to access the files.

The main goal of Onchain Summer - **Bringing the next billion people onchain!**

We have already seen a similar goal for Optimism before, now the goal is bigger.

There are **3 main parts of Onchain Summer** from Coinbase and Base:

*   **Building something new for Onchain Summer.** You can share your project with Base, Coinbase and the entire onchain community by submitting it to the Onchain Registry [here](https://buildonbase.deform.cc/registry/).
    
*   **Buildathon and Grants.** We will talk about this in more detail later in this article.
    
*   **Onchain Summer merch.** If you’re interested in selling your own existing merch in the store or you’d like to design something new, go [here](https://app.deform.cc/form/ab03ab07-afab-45f4-a356-cb7381f06109).
    

You can find details [here.](https://www.coinbase.com/blog/onchain-summer-is-here)

Optimism also announced on the X platform that it will allocate **600,000 OP** for Onchain Summer incentives.

Starting from June 3, creators and builders can showcase their on-chain works on Superchain and receive rewards, covering networks including Base, Frax Finance, Metal L2, Mode, Zora, Redstone Chain, Cyber, and OP Mainnet.

I will tell you about the main events in which you can already take part and hope to receive awards.

And don’t forget to claim your special role for Onchain Summer Buildathon in [Base Guild.](https://guild.xyz/base/onchain-summer-buildathon)

_And to tell you a secret, I think that this particular activity can be one of the multipliers for airdrop if Base decides to launch its token._
