Optimism Retro Funding · interactive mechanism simulation

Projects submit evidence of impact already delivered → badgeholders (Citizen House) vote → ballots are aggregated (median / quadratic, with a growing onchain-metrics weight since Round 4) → the Collective's OP treasury pays out each round. Edit the parameters and watch how review coverage and the payout curve change who actually gets rewarded.

Illustrative simulation. Node values (badgeholder counts, round budgets, coverage, variance) are set near documented ranges — e.g. Round 2 had 71 badgeholders and 10M OP distributed, Round 3 had ~145 badgeholders and top awards only ~6x the median — but exact timing, application flow, and per-round allocations here are randomized for visualization, not live onchain or governance data. The "review collapse" button crashes review coverage and floods applications to illustrate the documented failure mode where many projects received no fair minimum review.
