We're kicking #OPsummer into high-gear, racers.

Let's talk about the 750,000 in $OP incentives coming to $veVELO lockers in the coming weeks and months.

Things are about to heat up! 🚴‍♀️💨

👇
Those who lock $VELO are making a long-term bet on both Velodrome and the @optimismFND ecosystem.

Their votes control protocol emissions and they earn 100% of the fees and bribes for pairs they vote for.

In other words, lockers are essential to the flywheel.
That is why we are reducing the barrier to entry for individuals or protocols through $OP incentives.

Making it even more capital efficient for folks to get engaged in the #VeloRaces.

And helping early movers build liquidity on their pairs without diluting their holders.

✨Exciting News Racers ✨

Velodrome is receiving a 3,000,000 $OP grant from @optimismPBC to accelerate our efforts deepen liquidity and drive value back to the ecosystem.

Want details on the grant and how we'll use it?

Let's go for a quick ride!🚴‍♀️💨

👇
Velodrome is an AMM designed to be the central trading and liquidity marketplace on Optimism.

We operate as a public good, where 100% of fees and bribes goes back to $veVELO lockers.

@optimismPBC bootstrapped us to help solve the biggest barrier to ecosytem growth: liquidity.
Deep liquidity on ecosystem pairs is essential to protocols ability to lure users away from main-net + attract the volume needed to fuel exponential growth.

Users need low fee, low slippage swaps at scale.

And that volume should produce value for the ecosystem, not extract it.

How do we plan to distribute the 9 million $OP tokens from our $OP Stimpack allocation?

A 🧵...

#OPSummer #Perptimism @optimismPBC
(2/6)

Firstly, we want to incentivize market makers to provide deep liquidity & grow our trading volumes even further📈

We've achieved >$10B in trading volumes so far without any major incentives, so imagine what we could achieve with $OP incentives for liquidity providers🤯 Image
(3/6)

Secondly, there's another way we'll use $OP tokens to attract more liquidity to our platform....

Offer DeFi users a reliable and low-risk yield by allowing them to lending out their stables to our market making entity to earn a return💸 Image

Let the claims (officially) begin! 🔴‿🔴
A quick note: we're experiencing an all-time high load right now. We've provisioned more capacity, but increased traffic may cause slow response times.

We'll release a full drop day retrospective in the coming weeks. Thanks for your patience and stay OPtimistic! 🔴✨
If it wasn’t clear by now, this isn't your average token launch.

The Optimism Collective is so much more: a grand experiment in decentralized governance that will evolve over time. OP and the Token House are just the first step.

Excitement is in the air.

It’s going to be an OP Summer.

Today we're announcing the OP Stimpack, activating a pool of ~230M OP to incentivize project growth on Optimism. Image
This represents the inaugural action of the Token House.

This OP will be disbursed to projects old and new to reward past and incentivize future Optimism builders.

We're laying the Bedrock of a new digital frontier, but it's the projects and users who will bring it to life. Image
Rollout will occur in 2 parts: Phase 0 and Phase 1.

Phase 0 starts now and runs for 3 weeks. It rewards early movers on Optimism who have demonstrated traction via on-chain criteria.

Eligible projects can publish a proposal with their distribution plan on the governance forum. Image
