Commons Stack contributes to the advancement of token engineering by creating sustainable commons-inspired token economies frameworks and the dashboards to parameterize them through open-source web3 tools and protocols. We helped launch the Token Engineering Commons (TEC) by developing its governance and funding structures, providing technical support for its Augmented Bonding Curve (ABC) configuration dashboard, and promoting collaboration among token engineers and researchers. Since its launch in mid-2021, the TEC has quickly become a thriving community, working together to fund and create better opportunities for token engineering projects. The $TEC token price has performed about as well as Ethereum, yet all the community has done is give out grants to Token Engineering Projects. 

We are seeking this funding to support our ongoing initiative to deploy the AragonOS and CommonsDAO tooling on Optimism. We will deploy complex DAO infrastructure to Optimism and novel new tools such as the Augmented Bonding Curve (ABC) and Tao Voting. This project will lay the groundwork for the token engineering community and Token Engineering Commons (TEC), should the community decide, to migrate from Gnosis to Optimism. One of the goals is to be able to migrate the TEC without writing any code.
