回溯性公共物品资金是 @optimismFND 的核心。 建设者创造对区块空间的需求，需求产生收入，收入流入RPGF，而RPGF将价值分发给用户和建设者。 简而言之，奖励那些产生影响的人。因此，让我们谈论一下影响。

The Optimism Collective's first step towards the Superchain is @BuildOnBase and Aerodrome is its liquidity and growth engine. Base contributes 15% of its revenues to funding Optimism's RPGF programs and is essential to growing public good funding. Here is our impact.👇

Retroactive Public Goods Funding is at the heart of Optimism. Builders create demand for blockspace, demand generates revenue, revenue goes to RPGF, and RPGF distributes value to users and builders. Put simply, reward those who create impact. So let's talk impact. 👇
