Referral Incentives

What is an Mad Science Project Idea?

A Mad Science Project Idea is an idea for a project within the Optimism ecosystem that may not have clear value but is generally cool as heck. Mad Science Project Ideas make great hackathon projects and tend to be a great way to explore Optimism, OP Mainnet, and the OP Stack.

Summary

Create a mechanism that gives users an incentive to use OP Mainnet that is generally sybil resistant. Ideally, each new user that someone gets to use OP Mainnet should result in an referral payout. You'll need to figure out how to make this sybil resistant and how to track referrals so they can be distributed. You might want to look into the AttestationStation as a way to handle sybil resistance.

Possible Features

• Allow users to register for some sort of referral link.
• Allow users to be rewarded when accounts they refer hit certain thresholds.
• Make the protocol sybil resistant.
