Episode Summary
Welcome to Optimism Fractal 64, where public goods creators gathered to share their contributions to the Superchain ecosystem!
This week's session featured Zaal showcasing the 57th ZAO Fractal with the second successful implementation of the Discord bot, which now enables asynchronous fractal groups for people who can't join at the designated time. He's building opportunities for anyone to participate as long as four minimum people join, with a five-minute timer system that makes fractals more accessible across time zones. Zaal also shared exciting news about creating a podcast with Will T, launching "Let's Talk About Web3" as ZAO's media arm, and exploring Farcaster channels for distribution.
The session highlighted remarkable cross-pollination of communities, with GNeric exploring ways to incorporate the respect game into Nouns Africa, allowing contributors beyond just NFT holders to earn respect and put up proposals. Will T demonstrated his Superchain ecosystem exploration, showing how he connected his wallets to earn Superchain points, while also bringing TEDx-style talks to Web3 through KF Media. Rosmari shared her contributions editing videos from previous events and creating promotional images, while relaying news from previous events and maintaining community communications. Eric briefly joined to seek testers for his doctoral research training program around fractals, and Harvesto presented his research project creating a case study on consensus processes across the 24 fractal organizations and communities.
Dan wrapped up the presentations by hosting Eden Fractal's 122nd event celebrating their 3-year anniversary and sharing his experience pitching the Superchain Interop Incubator to venture capitalists and Ethereum teams. He demonstrated the new ORDAO cross-chain capabilities on Base and presented the fractal ecosystem development plan he's been working on. The group successfully reached consensus through the Respect Game, with participants earning soulbound reputation tokens, and learned about the new community-driven system requiring 2,000 Respect votes to trigger Optimism Town Hall events - ensuring sustainable resource allocation while maintaining democratic governance.
