Welcome to the Retroactive Public Goods Funding (RetroPGF) community! 🚀
We're thrilled to have you on board as we embark on a mission to revolutionize the way we support and celebrate public goods.
Time and time again, we've seen how critical public goods are to the growth and development of any thriving community. That's why RetroPGF was born - a forward-thinking funding mechanism designed to reward and amplify the impact of contributors to the Optimism ecosystem and beyond.
Why is it crucial to know about RetroPGF now?
Because we believe that awareness is the first step towards meaningful change. The more people know about RetroPGF, the stronger our collective impact will be.
Over the past months, we've been on the move, spreading the RetroPGF spirit at some of the most influential Ethereum events – EthBarcelona, Funding the Commons, and EthCC. Our booths weren't just spaces; they were dynamic hubs of activity where we connected, shared valuable insights, and engaged with projects eager to dive headfirst into the Optimism ecosystem.

And let's not forget the awesome swag we had on hand to share the RetroPGF love!
For those who couldn't join us in person, no worries. You can catch Griff's interview where he dives deep into our collective efforts and illuminates what RetroPGF means for our community.
To further amplify RetroPGF, we opened a dedicated Twitter account that will serve us as a go-to place for community insights, spotlight for previously funded RetroPGF recipients, educational gems and a lot more fun content yet to be shared.
