Dear members of the Optimism Collective,
Following up on recent community discussions. I’ve created a proposal on the Optimism Fractal snapshot space to start Season 7 on January 22nd, 2026. While last week’s draft proposed starting two weeks earlier, we discussed this at Eden Town Hall and agreed that the additional two weeks would better serve the community—providing more time for family, rest, and preparation. You can watch our discussion in this video.
The proposal above includes comprehensive context, rationale, and voting details. Voting will remain open until this week’s event at 17:00 UTC on October 30th. The Optimism Fractal Council will vote on this proposal as per our intent document. Note that the related proposal to start Eden Fractal Season 12 on January 15th was approved, so the usual biweekly cadence on the Optimystics Events Calendar would begin one week before Optimism Fractal returns.
Thank you all for an amazing season and past two years! I’m excited to reconvene and celebrate our two-year anniversary on Thursday!
