title: Create Metrics for Retro Funding | ||
sidebar_position: 5 | ||
--- | ||
|
||
:::info | ||
Open Source Observer is helping Optimism Retro Funding allocate millions in rewards and scale to thousands of open source projects. Contribute impact metrics to help allocate these funds more effectively! | ||
::: | ||
|
||
## Why This Matters | ||
|
||
The [Optimism Collective](https://optimism.io/vision) is pioneering a new economy where impact equals profit. With 850 million OP tokens dedicated to [Retroactive Public Goods Funding ("Retro Funding")](https://app.optimism.io/retropgf), Optimism aims to realign incentives to reward those who create meaningful impact within their ecosystem. | ||
|
||
### The Challenge of Measuring Impact | ||
|
||
Measuring and defining impact is inherently complex. This [post from Optimism](https://optimism.mirror.xyz/zWlA9LROAzRee5BFqbquYHawmruKzLmXbONp_hcCwE4) outlines the challenges they faced in 2024: | ||
|
||
- Alignment: Retro Funding has lacked a structured framework to ensure that rewards reflect the value of impactful contributions. | ||
- Accuracy and Fairness: Builders have expressed concerns about the accuracy of impact measurements and proportionality of rewards. | ||
- Consistency and Predictability: The lack of a reliable, continuous reward mechanism has made it difficult for contributors to depend on Retro Funding. | ||
|
||
### The Shift Towards Metrics-Driven Evaluations | ||
|
||
To address these challenges, the Optimism Collective is evolving its Retro Funding mechanism to be metrics-driven and human-guided. This approach combines quantitative data with qualitative expertise to more accurately evaluate and reward impact. | ||
|
||
- Continuous Rewards: Transitioning from annual rounds to ongoing impact evaluation provides consistent and predictable rewards. | ||
- Metrics Development: Robust, reproducible, and adaptable metrics are essential for accurately capturing the multifaceted nature of impact. | ||
- Correcting Market Failures: By providing reliable rewards to impactful builders in underfunded areas, Retro Funding aims to stimulate growth and innovation. | ||
|
||
### The Search for Better Metrics | ||
|
||
We are familiar with Goodhart's Law: "When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure." Rather than shy away from this, we need to continually search for better metrics to measure impact. | ||
|
||
Research and data science are critical to this search. By contributing your expertise to the development of sophisticated impact metrics, you help: | ||
|
||
- Improve Accuracy: Ensure that rewards are fairly and proportionally distributed based on measurable impact. | ||
- Enhance Transparency: Provide clear insights into how impact is measured, increasing trust among builders and contributors. | ||
- Catalyze Growth: Identify and support new markets and innovations to accelerate the growth of the ecosystem. | ||
|
||
### Focus Areas for Impact Metrics in 2025 | ||
|
||
There are currently two focus areas for impact metrics in 2025: | ||
|
||
- Onchain Builders: Projects that expand the onchain economy by increasing users, transactions, or total value locked. | ||
- Developer Tooling: Tools that empower developers to build more efficiently on the OP Stack and contribute to the Superchain's growth. | ||
|
||
## How You Can Help | ||
|
||
There are several ways to contribute impact metrics: | ||
|
||
1. **Propose New Metrics**: Design and implement novel ways to measure project health, contributor reputation, ecosystem impact, and more. | ||
|
||
2. **Improve Existing Metrics**: Help refine our current metrics by suggesting improvements to calculation methods or adding new dimensions of analysis. All our models are open source and available on [GitHub](https://github.com/opensource-observer/oso). | ||
|
||
3. **Domain-Specific Analysis**: Apply metrics to specific domains (like DeFi or npm packages) to surface insights relevant to those types of builders. | ||
|
||
## Getting Started | ||
|
||
1. Review our [blog](https://docs.opensource.observer/blog/tags/optimism) to learn more about metrics we've tried and the lessons learned from past rounds | ||
|
||
2. Fork one of the notebooks in our [Insights Repo](https://github.com/opensource-observer/insights) to start exploring the data. | ||
|
||
3. Check out our [GitHub Project Board](https://github.com/orgs/opensource-observer/projects/3/views/14) for the latest issues we need help with. | ||
|
||
