In case you haven't heard yet, Optimism Fractal entered an indefinite hiatus in January. The proposal was approved by the Optimism Fractal Council, using Optimism Fractal's existing consensus processes to indefinitely pause events. The main goal is to consolidate our focus on the fractal ecosystem with Eden Fractal — supporting the mission to implement fractal decision-making processes throughout society and better serving the growing ecosystem of fractal communities. I'm deeply grateful for everyone who participated and contributed to Optimism Fractal over the past two years. It's been truly special, and we've achieved a great deal together. I'm also really excited about our decision to consolidate focus on Eden Fractal where there's been a lot of momentum lately. In the new year, we have plans to make significant strides to help all communities and organizations optimize collective decision-making, and I believe this focus will help us get there. You can learn more about the rationale and what this means for the fractal ecosystem in the approved proposal (linked above). The proposal also includes a link to the Eden Town Hall 67 video where we discussed this decision in full. Stay tuned for additional updates in the coming weeks. In coordination with this decision, Optimism Town Hall is also entering an indefinite haitus and, the Optimystics events calendar has been rebranded to the Eden Creators events calendar, reflecting this shift in focus toward the Eden Fractal community. Everyone is welcome to join Eden Fractal and Eden Town Hall weekly events on the Eden Creators events calendar. You can learn more about Eden Fractal, the foundational community that gave rise to Optimism Fractal and continues to work towards optimizing collective decision-making on the Superchain, at EdenFractal.com. I also invite you to connect with us and share your thoughts throughout the week on the Eden Fractal telegram group chat. Hope to see you there!
