Experimenting with Futarchy* for Optimism Grant Allocation Decisions
Participating in the futarchy has been a really fun and interesting experience so far. 🙂 I may add some reflections later, but for now: Can you share the ballpark of how much superchain TVL increase the grant council expects from the different grantees?…

🆕 Optimism v1 Futarchy Grants Contest: Prediction Markets vs. Council for OP Grant Allocation
The summary discusses the results of the Optimism v1 Futarchy Grants Contest, which compared a prediction market-based grant allocation method (Futarchy) to the traditional Grants Council process for distributing 100K OP grants to projects aimed at increasing Superchain TVL, finding that Futarchy brought in new participants and showed higher aggregate TVL growth (mainly due to one outlier), but also had higher variance and lower prediction accuracy. Community feedback has been limited, with some criticism of the experimental design—particularly the low-information environment for the Grants Council—suggesting the need for improved controls and real incentives in future iterations.
