Advance Token Engineering: Projects must advance token engineering within one of the following categories: tooling, research, education, social infrastructure, consulting.
The cadCAD Foundation project clearly advances token engineering in the category of tooling by developing a sophisticated modeling and simulation framework applicable to token engineering.
Contribute to the Superchain: Projects must contribute to the growth and development of Optimism or the broader Superchain ecosystem. Applications must include the following elements: - Description of the long-term vision for impact - Specification of short-term goals and milestones within the scope of the grant - Agreement to participate in TEC's impact evaluation process leading to the Retroactive funding round in November
The project outlines a comprehensive long-term vision for developing a robust modeling framework for complex systems, short-term goals and milestones such as the release of cadCAD.jl and community engagement, and agrees to participate in TEC's impact evaluation process.
Project Credibility: - Summary of project’s existing work with relevant links - Verified Github and/or Twitter account - Brief bios of the project’s team members
The project provides a comprehensive summary of existing work, including live implementations, multiple informative articles, and a list of collaborations. Verified Github and Twitter are provided, and a brief bios of team members demonstrate strong expertise in the field.
Returning Grantees: - Updates on the work accomplished since their last grant - Self-assessment of the effectiveness of their use of that funding
The project gives detailed updates on advances made, such as the imminence of cadCAD.jl's alpha release and community building efforts, and self-assesses effective fund usage for important activities like presenting at a major conference and seeding a grants program.
