GM Optimists!
I’m writing to provide some exciting updates about Optimism Fractal and our work with the Collective:
Optimism Fractal Season 4
I’m pleased to announce that a proposal to start the 4th season of Optimism Fractal was approved by the council with our consensus process. This means we’ll start the fourth season of Optimism Fractal on August 15th, following a two week summer break. The last event of our third season will be next Thursday on July 25th. You can watch video of last week’s event we discussed this and planned our steps for next season here.
Mission Requests
After discussing Mission Requests at the past few events, I’m excited to share a few Mission Requests that I created in Optimism Season 6:
Develop Onchain Social Games that attract Builders to Optimism
Create Educational Programs that Empower Developers on Optimism
Create and Distribute Videos about Optimism Collective Governance
Each of these Mission Requests are designed to help Optimism Fractal grow and create a more positive impact for the Optimism Collective and Superchain. You can learn more about these Mission Requests in the links above and also see this post for more details about why the first Mission Request can be so helpful for Optimism (which also partly applies to the other two Mission Requests as it includes a detailed section about Optimism Fractal). I also created a fourth Mission Request about Community Events that you can see here, but this one didn’t get sponsored this season.
The first Mission Request about developing onchain social games has reached the quorum and the other two Mission Requests need an additional 2-4 million OP votes from Optimism Delegates in order to be approved by the Token House. I plan to apply for each of these Mission Requests in the coming weeks and it would be great for all of them to be approved so that they each could benefit Optimism Fractal, the Collective, and the Superchain in different ways. In the near future, I also plan to request additional budget allocatations for each of these Mission Requests.
I’d really appreciate if any delegates reading this can vote for these Mission Requests, as well as anyone who can encourage any friends who are delegates to approve these Mission Requests before the deadline, which is tomorrow (Thursday) at 18:09 UTC. For any Optimism Delegates who may be reading this, you can vote here to support the first two Mission Requests (under Intent 3a) and vote here to support the third Mission Request (under Intent 1).
More Details and Discussions about Missions
For anyone who missed our prior discussions about Mission Requests and would like to learn more, you can watch the Optimism Town Hall episode where we spoke about Optimism Season 6 in this video and explore more in this project.
In addition you can also see more of our discussions about Missions related to Optimism Fractal during our past two events, which you can find by exploring the timestamps or transcripts of the episodes. For convenience, I also curated some timestamps of discussions about the Missions that we’re planning, which you can find in our 34th episode (1 and 2) and 33rd episode (1 and 2).
I’ll propose these Missions as a topic for discussion at tomorrow’s Optimism Town Hall event tomorrow where we can discuss these in more detail if the community would like. Looking forward to seeing you all at the events tomorrow!
New Event Page
We’re having a technical issue with the normal Luma event page for Optimism Fractal this week and are working with their team to fix it as soon as possible. For now, you can find the correct time of the event and RSVP at this new event page or the Optimystics events calendar.
Looking forward to seeing you at the event tomorrow!
