- Over the past few months, we’ve been scoping and designing an application that makes it easy for communities to play the Respect Game and coordinate their governance with fractal decision-making processes. As we’ve been exploring features and designs for these apps, I’ve realized that that there is likely a need for two different apps: a Respect Game app and a Fractal app. Both of these apps are intended to make it easy for anyone to play the Respect Game, but they differentiate in their focus.
- The Fractal App is envisioned as a comprehensive app for communities and organizations to coordinate their operation with the Respect Game at weekly events (like Optimism Fractal). This includes governance features like voting with respect, forming councils, and social media networks for the community to interact between events. The Fractal app features one community token (such as OPF) that can be used to coordinate the activities and decision of the community. It is largely inspired by the original design of fractal communities at fractally.com.

- We’ve started coordinating the development of both of these apps in the following projects. Much of the work on these projects is currently in an internal Optimystics database and will be shared in the public Optimism Fractal projects as soon as possible. You can find details about each of these developments the project to Build Respect Game App and Build Optimism Fractal App.
