According to Foresight News, Optimism has issued a statement emphasizing the importance of adhering to the eligibility criteria for each round of public goods funding. The company has stressed that in order to avoid rejection, each application must meet the relevant round's eligibility standards. This is particularly important for on-chain builders, who must comply with the criteria for chains, contract indicators, and KYC requirements.

The company has also warned that applications that involve future impact promises, false statements, impersonation, bribery, spam, or duplicate submissions will be rejected. Applicants are urged to submit their applications on time and ensure that they have verified their Github code repositories and have the necessary licenses.

In addition, Optimism has stressed the importance of providing all the detailed information about the deployed contracts at the time of registration. This move is seen as a part of the company's efforts to maintain transparency and integrity in the process of public goods funding.
