Projects

Within the Optimism Collective, the project entity (opens in a new tab) represents contributions to the Optimism Collective and can be used to apply for Retroactive Public Goods Funding (Retro Funding).

Project Representation

The project entity is represented onchain by an attestation from the following schema (opens in a new tab). Projects are identified by the type "project". The attestation UID serves as the project's unique identifier throughout its lifecycle in the Collective.

Project metadata

All other project metadata is stored or referenced in the Project Metadata Attestation (opens in a new tab).

Updating metadata

  • The Project Metadata Attestation is re-issued whenever there's a change in metadata.
  • Apps displaying project metadata should refer to the most recent attestation for up-to-date information.
